Linked with Adrien Rabiot.  Not sure why or where.

On his way out of Marseille after he got into a bust-up with Jonathan Rowe. Who's since been punted out to our old mates Bologna.

Hats off to Monchi if he can pull that off.

Not what we need though is he. In a position we’re q well stocked, isn’t quick, blocks the progression of Hemmings and is a bit of a prat (although not as bad as his mum)

There’s no deals to be done today. It’s bank holiday.

How is Guessand debatable? He's been here about three weeks.
That's a moot point.

Surely the mooted Asensio deal is possible, especially if it's a 12 month loan deal? Or even permanent at around £12m to £15.00m?

The morale of the story will have to be develop young kids to flog them for big money - as we have a ceiling to our revenue and a massive wage bill

Unai might have to turn to the kids to fill the bench and hopefully he stumbles across one he can flog for £50mil in 2 years.

a declining team

U wot?

He'll be in this week. How we do it right now isn't my concern.

Isn't Rabiot painfully left-footed?

We need to sign a total psychopath. Maybe two of them.

I don’t think we’ll get Jhon Duran back mate and Alpay Özalan is far to old at 52

Chukwuemeka close to signing for Dortmund so perhaps that gives us a little more financial wriggle room.
