Special Juan

Chalobah, Fofana, Badiashille and Disasi surely at least two of them go to free up a spot. I like Trev, he's the best out of the lot of them, Fofana is excellent but he's clinically dead, cannot even figure him in the equation

Romano also saying Arsenal are discussing Noni internally

I've been his harshest critic mate and I think rightly so at times, he hasn't helped himself but at the same time I'm willing and can maybe see what he is trying to do by the way I have explained, I could be totally wrong but it's just my take. People say we have spent fortunes, but you know what? We have spent fortunes on shite, some have been good buys but a lot have been truly and utterly shite. We must go and get a keeper, it's absolutely absurd if we don't

This will have been the biggest sweetener in the JBG deal

So, how I see things and the way we are buying players, especially attacking players but also the players we are being linked with and also certain players who are here now. The ilk of players we are seeing coming in, lets take Gittens and Joao Pedro as an example as a first, both are renowned for their work rate, not just on the ball but off it, and also they are players who will work like dogs to to get back and help the defensive side of the game. Here is my take on that, Maresca is looking to a box/shut off system where by these players like Pedro, Gittens, Neto, Delap all have serious pace so what I can see with Maressca and what he is trying to do is shut teams out and box them in when we don't have the ball, IE we create a line of four at the back, three mids and two wingers behind the ball, these players Gittens, Pedro, Neto, Palmer, Estavao (Not Delap as I'm talking the striker being the highest player) but us then winning the ball back fast and early and triggering a fast and killer breakout. This is one of the reasons and why I say it because the likes of Madueke and why he maybe sold is he doesn't do enough off the ball and my opinion this is what Maresca is pining for, these lighting quick players who get back, double up and create a trigger for an overload counter. Now there are players I haven't mentioned but I think you will get the gist of what I mean, he wants grafters, people who will get back and won't moan about it. The signing of Pedro is a smart one for me, Pedro can play comfortably as a 9, Nkunku can't, Nkunku is 10, Pedro offers way more as a 9 and this will take the burdon off Delap because we cannot expect 30 goals from him, great if he does but the lad will need help and whilst Pedro is only young he will help Delap and when we need to maybe change and rest Palmer we can do this with Pedro. Pedro is exactly the swiss army knife type player we need and he offers so much support and we must utilize him to aid the rest of Palmer, we cannot run him into the floor, we simply cannot. So for me,, sell Nkunku, sell Noni and sell Jacskon, fetch in another wide player but believe me it will be another dog of a worker as I can see a pattern with the signings and what Maresca is trying to do. I could be completely wrong, but just watching us play these last few weeks I'm seeing a pattern with the play and the players we are buying. We will see @YorkshireBlue

I will give my thoughts on this later after I have been to kids football coaching, there is a big point I want to put across and how I see things panning out

I think Madueke is gone the rumors are ramping up now and got more and more intense each day, no smoke without fire. I think it will be have to happen quickly with Noni going and if it is Kudus we need to step in there before Spurs tie things up

Forest have made a move for Malik Fofana

Matt Law has reported we are wanting to start the season with as many as 9 attacking options and haven't ruled out another one incoming if Noni is sold

50/60M for Noni we must snap their hands off

Plettenberg is reporting that talks between us and Arsenal have started for Noni

Mbeumo told Spurs from the off he didn't want them

On a totally unrelated note, how the fuck haven't United signed Mbeumo yet? Ha ha feels like they have been trying to get him years, not weeks The United fans are going mental

Romano reporting talks now underway between Spurs and Kudus, Kudus open to the move, talks continue on both sides but there are two other teams in the race for him

Medical is completed for Pedro, contract signing today...all done

You just love to wake up to SSN literally crying because their beloved City have been kicked out ha ha The media are fucking gutted that we are flying the English flag

Thiagho Silva could still play for us now

This Inter side are shite

If we are after another winger you would have to think it's Madueke going and with Mudryk's career basically over we will need another winger

Dewsbury Hall is complete WHU footballer if I ever saw one. Send him there and 40M for Kudus

Spurs are being heavily linked to Kudus, cannot see us getting him now we have Gittens and Pedro

I think Madueke will be moved on, he may end up at Newcastle and that's the reason we got Pedro over them, by letting them know if they gave us free run at Pedro we would talk about Madueke

Who's reporting this?

Arsenal have spoken to Eze's camp this weekend

Romano saying Spurs have serious interest in Kudus, but other clubs are also pushing
