They aren't even running the hard 5 yards, they have shot the towel in.

5-0 down at home in the PL tells you were they are.

It can happen to everyone. Before this round Watford, Norwich and Newcastle have been in the relegation zone. And Newcastle beat United and Spurs. Norwich beat City... Watford almost won against Arsenal and Spurs. What I'm trying to say is Southampton is capable of doing the same and I think they will stay up.

He is clearly the best English LB right now. 70m is obviously too steep for a fullback that is not Marcelo/Alaba/prime Sandro or A.Cole quality but I see Leicester demanding that much. He is already a complete leftback at just 22. The question is how we use the academy once the ban is served. If we continue Lamps's approach and even sell declining players like Luiz and make space for promising academy graduates but do not find a suitable LB option, the club can easily afford to go towards mega deals like this and pay whatever necessary to punctually improve the squad. If Chilwell reaches this kind of level, a deal of this magnitude might even make sense. I just hope we stop splashing out for the sake of buying, of the players being English or try to build up our squad with expensive signings. Lamps has done such a great job of rebulding the squad without spending a Penny, if he says I want just two or three players to lift the first team to another level and Chilwell is one of them, then the board should deliver.

convinced me, unless we get a good deal on Alex Telles (and next summer is last year he is young enough to buy, why we did not buy hum 4 or 5 years ago on is a fucking mystery, one of the most underrated fullbacks in the last ten years)

Jose Gaya will cost the same or nearly the same as Chilwell, and I would rather we get an English player if he is the level of Chilwell (I know people are fainting at that, roflmaooooo)

I do have to add, I am very happy with how Alonso and Emerson have both raised their game, Alonso has barely stressed me out this year (unlike last year when he drove me BONKERS)
