Sideshow Luiz

Anyone know what the add-ons are for this deal and the Lukaku deal? I know that Martial was an initial 30 odd M for Utd but his add-ons got to 50. The add-on were pretty simple, like 10 caps for France, # of appearances and stuff like that. One of them was 10 if he was a ballon d'or finalist or something else that isn't going to happen.

Remy!!!!

I'm surprised that Zlatan's name hasn't come up much in the paper talk.

OX

When he became the only game in town. Top club needs a striker. We're the only top club in that position. He and Belotti seem to be the only ones available (I don't believe Aubameyang was ever an option). Personally, from what I've seen, Belotti would seem to fit the system a bit better (work, work, work), but who know's what really going on there? I think he and Michy give us some flexibility in the squad. Morata, Hazard & Pedro on the counter will be deadly. I have to say, I'm not overly excited, especially at that price. But, better than a trolling Costa.

I think so too. We played it a lot more in the second half of last season. Cesc on for Pedro. There were a few times when we were getting a bit overrun and had to get the 3rd midfielder on. I expect to see it even more next year, as in from kick off sometimes.

The short terms are good for both parties. For Conte, he can leave if he doesn't get support. For the club, the payouts are smaller if we have to sack him. Keeps both parties on their toes.

Pato and Falcao. Let's go!! Falcao was actually pretty good last season and....I'd be on board for trying that again

Yesterday, that deadline was 1 week. Silly season, have to read everything only so you have more lines to read between to get an idea. No one interested at 80M Euro. The market has not gone THAT screwy.

It's back on now. I didn't realize that the other button was the same thing. Sorry to cause an issue. How are the ad revenue and previous problems related?

With the paper talk of Keita to Liverpool for £70M I think we did a good job here. Bakayoko + Kante for the same price as Keita? I'm pretty sure we won that.

OMG. Forgetting the targets for now. Can we get Conte to agree to an extension before Milan get him too? On another note: Does Milan's interest in Morata mean that Belotti could be on his way here?

LOL. We need twice that just for the medical.

I see. Thanks.

Well. When it comes back, I recommend it. It was quite valuable. Especially when you've been away for a while and a thread blows up.

No. I mean this: There is usually a green "unread" button before the 1st page of the thread link. It used to just take you to the first unread post of the thread.

We still have Remy!!! I had completely forgotten that he was still at the club.

No. Can't stand him. We've got a really likeable squad right now (really wish Chalobah had stayed). Don't want this little troll anywhere near it.

OMG. Gazzump this. Whatever Milan have agreed, just come over the top of it. No release clause for Italian teams, so the fee should be lower than the 100M Euro.

I totally forgot that we still had him, TBH

So, Chalobah and Matic out. Bakayoko in. Okay, but I thought we needed more depth for next season. I know there's a lot of time left, but I haven't seen us linked with any other midfielders.

His fee was ridiculous when we enquired last year. Maybe that's what's taking us so long with the transfers. We need a club outside of England to negotiate a fee. We pay a little more instead of starting the enquiry and paying double. Need a club to start negotiations for Belotti. 50M instead of 80M

Thanks Jim. Though, I hate to bring something else up. But, the "unread" icon/button isn't around anymore.

Hope he's wrong about Conte going to AC Milan, though he makes a lot of sense. Someone send this video to Roman, please. Also: Doesn't want to raise his voice in public, but no qualms about dropping F-Bombs while holding an infant.

Nooooo
