Let's hope that City pay the buyback clause if JT is to leave.

Was that something like 40 million?

I’m surprised the club went in this direction rather than TikTok. Twitter has been steadily losing users for a couple of years, and isn’t popular amongst youngsters.

It doesn't appear to be popular amongst people in high school. But still very popular in the 18-24 age group.

I rarely watch games on mute as there needs to be an atmosphere even if it's just the crowd, but I watched the game last night on silence due to the commentating and it was actually pretty peaceful. I think Spain will be far too much though if England get to the final. They look a level above.

Superb.

Not watched golf on tv in around 15 years even though I know Fleetwood's caddy, Ian. I wouldn't recognise most of the golfers that play now.

We have a strong team strengthened with some decent signings.

Agree. All I'm reading on here is how good other clubs are doing, yet if you look at the players we've signed, we've already had a solid window so far with plenty of time to improve further.

ollieclarets8

Our midfield clearly needs strengthening, but still plenty of time.

ollieclarets8

Everything I've read so far on this suggests when they do leave the club we won't have a pot to **** in.

I would prefer Alan Pace keeps his focus firmly on us and building a team to compete in the Premier league.

I can't see that happening now. I can see him passing a lot of his attention on to somebody else to look after us, while he concentrates on Espanyol.

He probably will. Still plenty of time to go for someone else.

Even if we get Sargent does anyone think that we will still be looking to sign another striker.

Can't see it unless it's a loan towards the end of the window.

SSN definitely pushing the Sargent story. Can't link it as it's on the telly.

Wolfsburg also linked.

Hopefully the lure of Premier League football will be enough.

Hamer

I think I'd take him too.

ollieclarets8

Partial or complete tear? Seems to make quite a difference but got to expect at least 6 months out.

ollieclarets8

Who’d of thought players like Ivan Toney and Liam Delap would be premier league level after their performances in the championship. I’d much rather spend 15-20m on a proven championship goalscorer with English experience than risking it on someone from say Belgium or Dutch leagues I think the club ...

I think Sargent would be a superb signing. And another Josh into the mix

We lost one, so makes sense we bring one in

Mad how the ‘Best club side in the world’ finished 4th, 6th and 12th over the last 3 years in England.

I guess Champions League winners aren't always league winners, FA cup winners often aren't league winners.

And who the hell is tango man?

Also, surprisingly most people think the 'use by date' on water bottles is for the water. A common misconception.

Not seen much of the men's tennis this year but the final is actually quite entertaining.

ollieclarets8

The England game, but will flick over to the other game now and again - it's football.

Yes sorry. It was already agreed to be on TV, according to articles I saw last week some time anyway

Yeah I read about this in June. Just a coincidence and ITV fancied showing it as it's not part of their quota for this season.

Your missing the point entirely.

I certainly don't think I am. People are over-worrying with 6 weeks to sign players and ship players out - many of which happen at the end of the window, especially with loans.

ollieclarets8

Only 6 weeks before the season starts. Reckon we should start thinking about that panic button...

I do wonder what, if any , input SP has had in this signing

Surely he's a had a lot of input? The player will have already been on the list, but I very much doubt we'd have signed him if it didn't also tick all Parker's boxes too.

ollieclarets8

Yes and highly accurate I didn't have my stopwatch availalable when he played last time, he was too quick :D I assume they still do this but remember reading a few years ago that Sports Interactive (Football Manager) employ a massive network of people who are assigned to specific clubs to collect a...

I think he's meaning Jordan Henderson is signing for Brentford on Monday.

I don't think anybody would post misleading information on here...

Well we know it isn't Jordan Henderson, because he is signing for Brentford on Monday has already announced such.

Must be a youth player then.

I can see Larsen being a solid transfer but more an impact player. So a very solid bench option.

Twitter rumour saying Newc have made a £25m upfront / £5m add-ons new bid, which seems wayyyyy too low.

Winger apparently. Could be Odobert on loan after Spurs’ business in the past day.

If it's him then we'd have Odobert, Anthony, Edwards, Koleosho for the wide spots assuming Benson is sold. That is some serious competition.
