for a new shiny player coming in......
I imagine Ed will be getting rather nervous right now because if he doesn't deliver in this window, and thus far he clearly hasn't, then he's going to get the abuse and then some.
Whatever you think of the manager, he will have a ready made excuse that he gave Ed a list well in advance for transfer targets. If they're not acted on then is it really entirely his fault? I suppose it depends who was on it tbf.
Woodward's time for making footballing decisions at this club for me should be over. Leave him to work with the corporate stuff like before and bring in somebody who knows what they're doing. We never seem to look like we have a clear plan like some of our rivals do.
Jose won't be only one desperate.......

Wouldnt worry about this one happening VC. Its just gossip that we are after CB's.
..........................
That is the problem RDD. It is really unusual that the gossip just stays with one specific position.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
well i think our interest in Toby was/is genuine and so the media just go from there and start suggesting every other CB
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not sure about the Toby rumours but the rest is spot on

Once the media maken their mind up a club want a CB, DM or RW it become sels fulfilling.

Which does not change my comment in any way.

You suggested the media insisting we want a CB means it is true. I'm telling you that isnt necessarily the case

United may well do a Chelsea and finish 10th
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Liverpool likely to do a Liverpool and win feck all?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Guaranteed!
Just like night follow day!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Spurs and Liverpool both winning feck all? Yep totally agree
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Difference is Liverpool will be winning feck all while fist pumping and singing YNWA - minus Karius, he'll be in a corner crying by himself <OK>
----------------------------------------------------------------------
no karius was given a lovely reception at anfailed the other night.
wouldve been interesting to see the crowd reaction if they thought he was going to be number 1 for the year...doubt it would of been so sympathetic
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Those mousers set the standards for double hypocrisy, you know, right?
As soon as things start going wrong, that will signal an almighty crash, bang and wallop in the Klopp camp - (Mein Kamp 2)!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What the hell is the Greavsie Slaughterer of old London Town dribbling on about now?

Probably. It was only a theory. It is why I used the word unusual.

Separately if it’s a case of not getting the players we want them that means Jose’s and our scouts should be better with the market. Maybe Dalot is that player but I’m not convinced.
—
We employ scouts??!?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Porto employ scouts. Too many young players to mention.
A Madrid employ scouts. See above
PSV Eindhoven employ scouts. Il Fenomeno, imagine the delight when they signed him for fffs. 42 in 46 and a handsome profit. I’ve googled enough stats but I’m sure so I’m not gonna get the fee. And it will look peasantry compared to the fees of today, but the point is made.
Juventus - Zidane. Where were our scouts at this time?
Many others I’m sure. Henry and Arsenal is another.
And compared to the PSVs of this world, it was harder for us to get permits for the S. American players (and others) so the Ronaldo comparison isn’t totally fair, but fits the bill. I cite CM97/98 as my sauce.
And we signed C.Ron, who’s still making his claim as THE GOAT.
So we do get it right sometimes.
On a final note, If I was Mourinho, I’d go full kids.
Tuanzebe, Gomes, TFM, Mitchell, I’d get all three playing. If we can’t get the players in, then go with the kids
It’s a bit naive defensively. Tuanzebe is a boy, against wily pros in the CL, so I accept his loan, but I’d get Gomes in. Lightweight or not he has got skill. We fckin need that.
And TFM is a monster.
As much as I want him to fill the RB or DM position, it looks like he’s being groomed as as CB.
