Burnley injury update with Ashley Barnes to see specialist https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/18149958.burnley-injury-update-ashley-barnes-see-specialist/ The 30-year-old, who has six goals this season, was not involved in the third round FA Cup win over Peterborough last weekend and is expected to miss the trip to Chelsea when the Clarets return to Premier League action on Saturday. The issue has plagued him in recent weeks with boss Sean Dyche saying it was now a matter of getting to the bottom of it. "We will almost definitely be missing Barnsey," he said ahead of the trip to Stamford Bridge.

PIA PRESSURE Tottenham agree £28m transfer deal with AC Milan for Krzysztof Piatek with skipper Harry Kane out injured until April https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/10708648/tottenham-transfer-news-piatek-ac-milan-harry-kane-injury/ TOTTENHAM have agreed a deal worth £28million for AC Milan forward Krzysztof Piatek. The Polish striker, 24, is set to sign a 3½-year contract and scheduled to complete a medical in the next 48 hours. Jose Mourinho’s North Londoners will pay an initial fee of £23.8m — with a further £4.2m to come in add-ons. Spurs will be without star goalscorer Harry Kane until April after confirming the England skipper needs to go under the knife to fix his hamstring injury. Kane limped out of Tottenham's clash with Southampton clutching his left leg and is racing to be fit for Euro 2020 with a ruptured tendon. SunSport exclusively revealed yesterday that Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy was desperate to bring in a new striker and planned to hold talks over Piatek. Aston Villa, Newcastle and Crystal Palace were interested but Spurs are in pole position to land the ace, who is keen to stay at a big club. Piatek joined from Genoa for £30m a year ago, yet has just four goals this season.

will not shock me at all if we do nothing this window as it stands we are already basically one third of the way through the window and will not be surprised if we cock up some sales to boot I see real hatred toward doing business with Inter because of Conte Roman and Marina have been made fools of in the press for days over the insane money we tossed out over his sacking you know that shite PISSES them off combine that with the massive loss we took for the fiscal year only rumour I trust atm is this Dembele attempt (Lampard really does want him) and I see Lyon playing super hardball to the point we just wait till summer unless they back down if we truly wanted Ake, he is right there for the taking right now, IF you really rated a player you would never hesitate to get the deal done and get him into the family fold ASAP I am not sure I even believe we are making a move for Issa Diop, but no chance West Ham sell him for only £40m, that is so under-market for one of the few young decent EPL-proven centre backs out there the only CB's under 25yo worth more than £25m in the entire EPL are Caglar Söyüncü, Joe Gomez (HG), Davinson Sánchez, AC (HG), Tomori (HG), Diop, and Ake (HG) (and he turns 25 in 5 weeks) Maybe, maybe Jan Bednarek, Eric García (only 19yo and also HG) at Shitty maybe soon (I think he is a key for Pep not buying a CB atm) That is it. In the Championship maybe Ben White, and no one else is close.

Costa is out with a disc issue in his back that he had surgery for Morata is their only other true number 9 João Félix is more of a SS/winger type and then Ivan Saponjic is pure scrub, he has zero minutes, no clue why they even bought him from Benfica B team (well, he was only £450K so really doesn't matter, Messi makes that much in THREE DAYS salary, lololol) back to Costa even though he had back surgery several weeks ago he is out doing cray cray shit again like this he is a nutter

it gets worse each window almost makes me wish the ban appeal had lost, lololol

all the head choppers are wailing and gnashing their teeth cuz Messi's arse is on the next jet outta KSA

lol 2 3 FT nice always a good day when those Barca cunts do down interesting game but omg, the diving

Umtiti is just dogshit amazing how far he has fallen and it should be 2 4 Atleti just now Neto pulling off another great save too

Oblak has just been immense

2 goals and just now a pen the goal calls were correct the no pen was outrageously fucked up

2 3 Atletico Morata has exploded just tearing Barca apart the last 10 minutes I think Valverde may get sacked this next week if this keeps up such shoddy defense

WOW VAR just said no pen on Pique when it was a CLEAR handball holy shit one of the worst VAR calls of the year saving Barca's arse still 2 2 outrageous call

both defences are horrid Simeone has went stale at AM, been there too long I think something is wrong as his teams organisation has been poor the last 3 times I have seen them play and Valverde is shit

2 2 Morata with the pen

pen for Atleti by Neto

lol, now Suarez dived and rolled around and Trippier told him to get his ass up and Suarez went bonkers

I am on the verge of turning it off anyway, the diving is close to the worst I have seen in the past two years now Messi is in on the fake act if the EPL was like this I couldn't watch it it is sickening

no goal by VAR again or it would be 3 1

It should be 4 or 5 to 1 if not for Oblak he has been insane so far

2 1 again Griezmann VAR check says oki

VAR chalked it off handball

2 1 Messi again

1 1 Messi
