Is that because it's ridiculous to compare transfer spends of clubs that are at totally different levels?

Manchester United have turned down a bid from Everton to take Chris Smalling on a season-long loan.


Wonder if Everton forums have gone in to absolute meltdown at this
I wonder if United forums have.

Not a bad shout if true, but dont understand it if it's to replace Ling.

He averages 5 games a season and is ok as 4th choice.

Somethings in the pipeline regards our defensive unit, and theres a few desperate, worried and excited people behind the scenes depending what your preference is.

But we need to invest for where we are.

I bet if we went down though we would spend big to get back up like we did with Gray - so dont understand our logic sometimes.

Nothing wrong with " Love Curry Pies ", not a crime to be deceived .....

" Daily Telegraph " reporting at 12 noon that Leicester have had a bid of £20m for James Tarkowski rebuffed by Burnley ( I bet they have ! ), but are expected to come back with an improved bid ...

Stop tormenting the Corporal Joneses on here.
It would be nice to see one or two arrive but people forget we underperformed for half a season and still stayed up by some margin. So another new recruit or two would be good but it isn’t make or break for me.

It's been done, via people knowing staff that work at Twitter but add that to football news and it would be extremely rare.

The number of followers and common sense is all you need. In fact common sense is enough to know whether it's just a random rumour not to take as gospel, or a profile with more credit.

They somehow add it into their "display name" so it looks like its official.

If Twitter didn't place it alongside the name, then it wouldn't be as easy to fake

Hendrick, Benson or even at a push McNeil could all play centre midfield.
But yep we all agree and i’m sure Dyche does also that we need a new signing in there and that’s what he’s trying to do. If only it was as easy as you seem to think it is.

A big if with injuries, but our current first eleven would easily survive at this level this season.

Defour, Hendrick, Cork, Westwood and possibly McNeil all could play in the centre. Hopefully we’ll sign Drinkwater to add to what we have.
