It could be us, but I doubt Stoke will accept our absurdly terrible payment structure. The bloke is somewhat volatile so I would imagine that Stoke have been expecting it.

Seems like we're taking this Ireland connection further with the news that we're close to completing the signing of Jack Cork.

Rumours that we're trying to tempt Dion Dublin out of retirement seem wide of the mark.

Yeah, saw that one. I think that's one thirty-something Stoke player too many. If we get Cork (which I really hope we do), I would think we'd drop our interest in Whelan.

At same price easily. I was hoping we got Morata though but for £50m or something but I didn't realise it was £50m for Gylfi on the modern scale.

My worry is Lukaku will have the same issues as Zlatan had at times last season.

Lukaku would have been kool, but totally fine if Chelsea land Morata
don't think it's impossible he could be better

will be way more upset if United hijack this Bakayoko thing

not so keen on Aubameyang, mostly due to his age

or maybe Roman wants to step the **** up and make Mbappé happen!?

How do we think Lukaku fits with Griezmann?

Totally within the brief of the special once to want to hijack Chelsea transfers just to be a dick.

Conte shat the bed with his text though.

Basically will have to sell Costa for peanuts now.

also a shame that China changed their rules

sounded like it might have been possible to dump Costa there for way too much money otherwise

and Belotti is the other name i forgot to mention above
has been a lot of smoke about him being Conte's top choice

Looks like Cork is coming back to Burnley. Another excellent signing.

Arnautovic has gone off with a knee injury in their friendly tonight.

wasnt bakayoko the pure defensive midfielder with fabinho in the more box-to-box-ish role? ive seen the same 4 monaco games as everyone else, but he seems like a good carrick replacement.

I spent a while looking at that photo trying to work out why a crane was lowering a chess piece onto the table and assumed that was the joke of the photo.

He'll score too many goals?

I (and most other saints fans) were bummed to lose him in the first place. Maybe not a starter for a top half team but always did a gritty job.

Lukaku obvious mental midget with wim problems.

Will throw toys out of pram the moment MU buys any striker than can put pressure on his starting position.

He was excellent when we had him loan the year after our first PL season.

Like Walters, he's another with tons of PL experience and I'll be really happy if the signing is confirmed.

I probably saw the same games and he struck me as a bit of a headless chicken b2b more than a DM. Def not a disciplined holding mid and nothing like Carrick.
