Vente isn’t a possible incoming, we’re not interested in him. You’re shilling for a player who’s not even good enough to be on our radar, and there’s no indication we ever even scouted him. Add him to the Shankland pile.

My mistake - Serie A a couple of years before that.

You say Jamie Vardy, I say Kyle Hudlin, let’s call the whole thing off. I thought it would be uncontroversial to say that a guy with international caps who played in Serie A last year would be a better signing than a total unknown being plugged on Twitter by the Dutch Saddlebrains, but I didn’t...

Based on the fact that he’s played at a much higher level. A guy who’s running up the numbers against Dutch youth sides isn’t of much interest to me in comparison - sorry.

Would be a much better signing than Dylan Vente, that’s for fucking sure.

That sounds way too wide for me

Well the story only really took off once Rose weighed in with incomplete facts. After that, I don’t think you can pretend the story isn’t a compelling one.

I love that we can soon create one of those magical thinking/ultra-attacking England line-ups, with Saka at LB and Grealish in CM etc

What’s your point? That’s the kind of hit rate that most scouts would absolutely dream of.

Did none of you read the bit in brackets? It wasn’t that small

According to Robbings, Sakamoto IS a wing back (in the same way that Josh Eccles is a wing back)

Farage, not satisfied with having the Prime Minister personally intervene to depose the CEO, now wants the whole board to resign. Presumably there’ll be no justice until anyone with the first name Nat, or the last name West have also been fired from their jobs in disgrace.

I don’t see a problem in a journalist wanting to promote that they might have inside information, no.

To be honest I think Robins was pretty silly to dangle the prospect of ten signings out there after the first game of preseason, it’s sent me through the roof ever since.

This kind of hate that Turner gets never makes sense to me. Sure, get angry at him for not churning out exclusives every week (although I assume this would count as ‘attention seeking’) but given the chance to pump out weeks worth of clickbait headlines about bullshit rumours like Billy Sharp...

His suggestion that we’re preparing to sign a replacement for the player who signed a new contract more than two weeks ago, you mean?

I don’t think this is a freedom of speech issue at all. She got her facts wrong and caused embarrassment/reputational damage to her company - it was a high profile-enough screw up to justify giving her the sack if the board felt it was a problem. As it is, she had the board’s backing until No...

I’m expecting a slow start just because of the amount of turnover with transfers, a likely change in system after Gyokeres leaving, and the squad being painfully thin less than two weeks out. Factor in several injuries in the squad already and various problems with match fitness - why is Robins...

In other news, the entire Sunak administration now seems to be jumping on board the campaign to turn the Farage/Coutts fiasco into a modern-day Watergate. One cabinet minister says the whole board of NatWest should resign!

Why is Robins saying that Simms hasn’t done a great deal of training? Wasn’t he with us from day 1 of the Portugal trip?
