Silva at RCB. Dave also knows French.

Because we foolishly put them on high wages. Average players demanded by Conte

Going to need to start loaning our players at this rate. Or just lower the price

I had a proper wank royal scheduled for tomorrow afternoon and now I have to postpone.

Oh fuck off. Christ almighty this is the most tedious transfer.

I love how they think the moment Roman leaves, we are finished. Failing to realise we are now a global entity and would be purchased by another billionaire.

36 year old Thiago Silva was at the heart of the defence that kept Lewandowski out of the game whereas our sad case of a back line conceded 3 goals from him.

Yeah the 2013/14 kit for me is the best around

With everything calculated, we'd be at a net spend of -145million. And this is in the likelihood we don't sell any players.

Silva could actually be today

Nice little bump. Reading back, some of the suggestions would of destroyed us had we gone though. Mertens or Dembele instead of Werner Boga instead of Ziyech Gedson Fernandes instead of Havertz Lampard was right "‘When you’re creating 20 chances a game and not scoring enough goals that can be crucial’ ‘[But January] is not the ideal window [for] long-term and short-term. It’s about trying to get the choice right [...] considering what’s available’

Arsenal withdraw their pursuit of Thomas Partey AFTV meltdown in 3...2...1..

Messi joining city would be so wrong on every level. Hope he realises anything he wins with them would be Illegitimate given they are proven cheaters.

The fact Messi is willing to buy out his current contract, suggests the drastic measures he's willing to take. No doubt he'll take a wage cut just to play for a top side again.

I think he will. Look at the facts 1. Barcelona are currently broke. 2. Barca are probably 2-3 "proper" transfer windows away from becoming an elite side again. 3. The Barca hierarchy have elections next summer. To which Messi will be 34 and there is no guarantee Barca will do away with their current incompetent board members. 4. Messi has maybe 2-3 more seasons at the top level. I think given the circumstances, Messi would be wasting his final seasons at Barca.

We also have CHO to step up

Right but wouldn't you agree it's much better for all the facts to be presented before immediately jumping on the Racist cop kills black man narrative?

It's getting to a point where these players need to genuinely sit down and start thinking about their careers. Specifically Batshuayi, Drinkwater, Barkley, Zappacosta, Moses, etc. Unless they are willing to take a wage cut, have fun ruining your football career sitting on our bench. Bakayoko and Emerson are already looking to take wage cuts with their moves.

With Pulisic we'd still be at a positive spend at around 20 million. Love the meltdown from opposing clubs thinking we are breaching FFP without looking at any context.

If we are being realistic, neither Silva, Chilwell, or Pulisic will be available here. Azpilicueta will still be evaluated, although I'd start James here anyway given his crossing ability. Havertz will likely come off the bench. Just hope we have a new GK sorted by then. GK James-- Rudiger--Zouma--Alonso Kante---Kovacic Mount Ziyech---------------------Werner Giroud

Haha, this is the best display of red herring I've seen in a while.

Has pros and cons really. Least he'll be match sharp when he arrives. Just hope he doesn't get injured.

€125K per week. Massive pay cut I'd imagine?

Unfortunately, i think the Bayern showing is why I believe the Kante=Kovacic pivot can't work. So imbalanced given neither player will 'sit'. Far too many gaps that were left which led Bayern to walk through the midfield.

Unreal. This surely has to go down as our best ever transfer window?
