He should be England's number one and probably would have been were it not for dislocating his shoulder against Palace a couple of years ago. Turned our season around after replacing Hart after Christmas.

He deserves to be starting PL games, but it looks like we've given Pope assurances when he signed his new contract and we were never going to be able to keep both of them happy long term.

Sad day when it's confirmed, he might have been our best free transfer ever. Good luck to him.

Didn't we all have a big brewhaha last summer about how much Burnley would be about to get for whichever of Pope or Heaton they didn't stick with?

Woody's got the scattergun out early it seems. The Times are saying we've enquired about Lemina. What an insanely random panic buy that would be.

I assume the times are still somewhat reliable?

Anyone watched Ben Osborn at Forest? We've been strongly linked with him, do wonder if the club announcing Wilder's signed a new deal is an aperitif before more players coming in

Not really, some posters were saying we should sell Pope for about £10m when reserve goalkeepers with a handful of Championship appearances were going for £12m while others were saying we should hold out for closer to £30m and some were saying we shouldn't sell either keeper.

Then Pope did his shoulder and Heaton his calf and we signed bloody Joe Hart.

Looks like we're going to get a decent fee for Heaton given his age and that he only has a year left on his contract.

Diego Costa to Wolves, straight out of left field.

LOL just checked whoscored to see how he did last season. His strenghts/weaknesses are hilarious.

He's been done for about two years. He's past it more than Higuain.

Costa seems like a terrible fit for Wolves wtf. For one there's no chance of him getting in ahead of Jimenez/Jota. Suppose they do need somebody to trot out for lolEuropa matches though.

Apparently Everton are interested, that makes way more sense to me

i dont really agree with that. he had injury issues last fall and took too long before he got foot surgery or whatever, but other than that i think he's looked pretty good. and looked very good in some of the big games like arsenal and juventus at home. if he wasnt suspended in the juventus away game i think they would have gone through

Maybe he can put in 10 good performances a year but I wouldn't count on anything more than that.

Barca offering coutinho and rakatic for Neymar.

PSG want Demebele

Interesting. Barca offloading two players they don’t want, could see them both fitting in at PSG and the former being more of the main man there.

Thoughts?

Yeah these player swaps must only happen 1% of the time that they are rumoured in the press.

Just too many variables to work in. Both players have to want to leave, have to want to go to the other club and wages have to be matched.

Would love it if Barca decide not to sign Neymar and he gets stuck at psg after all. Will serve him right for being a greedy twatface.

the hot rumor is that he'd accept a lower wage to go back to barca. seems like the opposite of greedy.

While it’s possible that would happen, when have we seen anything like that from Neymar?

Maybe Barca are offering to buy him some more friends in exchange for a paycut.

Why did he go to PSG in the first place ? MORE MONEY HONEY !!
He is having a tough time now and wants to go back and is throwing his toys out of his Gucci pram in the process.
