Oh yeah, I’m definitely not blaming Maresca at all. He’s perfectly within his right.

I’m just saying it’s kind of messed up that Sterling apparently had no idea ahead of time that he wasn’t fancied. Judging by that statement he\is reps just released he was under the impression that he had a decent preseason and was all ready to be a key player this season.

I can only imagine Enzo kept his cards close to his chest because of who the player is, unlike Chilwell & co. It's hard to see this situation ending any other way than a move away, most likely a loan.

Guy is delusional, nothing new. Hope he fucks off already.

Unless the Saudi’s come in I can’t see where he can go unless he dramatically cuts his wages. And as I’ve said here before, Sterling doesn’t seem the type to uproot his huge family and move to Saudi. He still harbors England National team ambitions as well.

Toney is Brentford’s best player and they wouldn’t sell him this late or they’d be a relegation candidate. 

They look fine without him. Today, last season also. He will leave but don't think we are in contention.

Why discussion about Toney, it's obvious he is going to Saudi.

he has twice turned down massive  salaries from the Saudis

he is almsot 30yo

zero chance he is in his prime (I say he is no longer remotely there NOW) in 2 years or so when we really get cranking up for being at winning the league and CL level (barring cray cray punishment for Roman's shenanigans)

Elite #9 in this team and I am hugely confident we finish top 4 barring key injuries.

VO is a must. Jackson i weird striker.

ffs

Pool on the verge of signing Gonçalo Inácio for only £38m

[Vesper 30,224]

and Pool also is buying Mamardashvili for £30m (Bournemouth paying £4m on top for a 1 year loan to get around the EPL rules that you cannot buy and loan out immediately to another EPL club, so he joins Pool permanently in 10 months)

napoli lost 3-0 to verona. hopefully this will speed up the things around osimhen for us.

[robsblubot 3,595]

I see Alisson's best years behind him; yes, a bit soon for a goalie, but that's what I see (I see him a lot for Brazil). So, them getting a promising goalie as well as a quality CB is worrying given the strength of their squad. They still need a mid tho.

Reports from Brazil state that Brentford is signing gremio's 18yo winger Gustavo Nunes for somewhere in the 20m. He looks like a really interesting player, but one who needs yo take a step like Brentford before moving to a big club IMO.

Fofana Colwill are our starters. Badi and Tosin backups. Disasi depth. 

Told you guys Fofana would be starter. 

[Vesper 30,224]

very few remotely available and acceptable CBs left on the board

Bremer  (crazy hard pull now)
António Silva   (release clause is now around £85m, so he is out)
Gonçalo Inácio 

Piero Hincapié (likely going elsewhere)

Ousmane Diomande

Castello Lukeba  
Mohamed Simakan 
Dávid Hancko  
Cristhian Mosquera 

Murillo

We more than likely wont be signing a CB. Unless we sell one. Tosin was brought to replace Silva.

We are incredibly lightweight there but these guys buying the players are clueless. Wait and see we won’t sign a striker or a centre back of any real quality if we do.

Be another two players who may be good enough to play for us in 2036

im fine with going forward with fofana and colwill as our main cbs. need to give them a chance to play and prove themselves. we cant buy every year new pair of central backs.

we need a striker as priority number 1. and maybe the only thing this team is missing.

It does not really matter. as long as we don’t have a proper gk we could have prime nesta maldini cb we would still concede a ton of unnecessary goals 

I do hink we need both, wc gk and a wc cb to win big titles again. Even city/Liverpool never would have never won league /CL level without making these vital acquisitions nor us with that one magic Mendy+rudiger year. 

that being said fofana and colwill probably have the highest ceiling of all our cbs which is not saying much. Fofana still looking remotely useful at all came as a surprise. Still, dude is one big injury away from being done at top level so we should look to bleed in Tosin soon
