We should be all over Jonathan David… cheap at £20-25m…

Use the money that we got for Kane to buy Solanke…

Sell Solomon…

Job Done….
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'd be happy with that. David and Solanke would really help address the lack of depth in attack. Levy looks like he's in Scrooge mode this window though so I can't see anything like that happening.

So we've stalled on signing Neto, rumoured to be Ange's number one target, and now City are flush with the Alvarez cash, they're making a move.

This is why we all hate Levy. If Chelsea, United, Arsenal, City or Liverpool wanted him, it would have happened by now. We stall to get the best deal without considering whether the smart move is tying someone down quickly. I'm sure Dev will be on here denying he was ever a prime target or that it's out of our control, but lets be honest, it's happened too many times to be coincidence. We're the common denominator in these delayed, stalled deals.

Neto is quality but can we really afford to spend so much on an injury prone player

City are able to take that risk as he’ll just be a rotation option for them

We would want to start him every week if possible so he’s likely break down

We know what we’re doing, it’s our usual. Let everyone else go first and then the player highest on our target list at the end we will pursue with low ball offers until the final couple of days where either we or they will cave. It will be Solanke as no one else seems seriously interested.

City don’t even need Neto

They didnt really need Savio either, didnt stop them

surely theyre some other RWs on the market better than Johnson and not £60m crocks

not a RW but sign Grealish init

Just sign anyone immediately

I am surprised that there has been no murmurings about Grealish leaving, too good a player to not start - let alone potentially being third choice.

anyone strong enough to watch Ally Golds latest youtube vid please could we have the bullet points?

There’s a career out there for someone willing to spend 2 hours a day listening to his boring voice and then producing their own 5 minute round up video

I wasn't strong enough to make it all the way through, but he loves Ange and is also regularly refreshing Newsnow Spurs

i just tried to skip to transfer news and he spoke about solanke too much, throwing in the standard 'if he was called *insert foreign sounding name* everyone would want him' nonsense

I like the guy and share his views most of the time, I just wish his vids were shorter. There is an awful lot of waffle and off-topic chat. None of his vids should be longer than 50 mins but the average time keeps growing.

Stop wetting the bed about rumours you child.

Liverpool haven't bought anyone...so by your cry baby logic they don't want or need anyone.

Let's just see what we get and judge then whether Ange squad is good enough to improve this season.

He's a nice guy but my god, he doesn't even remotely have the kind of charisma needed to carry off a 2 hour video. Most of the time he doesn't really have any kind of exclusive anyway. He just rattles on and on about nothing. I don't think i've made it past about 5 minutes. To have a lengthy youtube video and not have the and kind of timestamped chapter breakdown is both stupid and arrogant in equal measure.

It was also quite the achievement, on his podcast, to find the only man boring enough to make Ally look like the excitable one in Rob Guest. I'm sure they're both lovely people but lets be honest, they're so feckin' dull and frankly too diplomatic. I listen to The View From The Lane because at least they're willing to stick their necks out and actually have an opinion. Danny Kelly's rants about Conte felt like listening to a proper fan. Ally is too focused on not upsetting the club.

It's a bit different with Liverpool though in that they have been used to success for the last 5 Klopp years.

Agreed - would be ideal for us. They took Broja, made him look good and then Chelsea didn’t sell

I understand where you're coming from but we've been here before so whilst it looks like I'm passing judgement before the window is over, I'm only really following the patterns of 20 years of ENIC. The original line was that we wanted Neto, Eze AND a striker. Now I'm no Russell Grant but something tells me we'll end up with one of them, likely Solanke having tried and failed to prise the other two more talented players from their clubs. Maybe it's the fault of the rumour mill for driving up expectation but the later this window goes without getting players in, the more you have to assume that targets haven't panned out as expected and panic is setting in. All late deals leave you with that impression. As you say, lets wait and see but I'm not gonna get my hopes up. I've been stung too many times before. I've seen this episode.

Levyshire can’t comprehend this, that Liverpool have won the league and CL with a lot of that squad - they won the league cup last year. New manager might just want to assess his squad before adding.


We’re creeping up on 20 years without a trophy and it’s all “be patient you bed wetter”

I’m starting to think Levyshire is on the bald Khunts pay roll

He's best enjoyed in small doses. Seriously needs to edit his videos down to a healthy time. No review of links to players should last the length of a Lord of the Rings movie.
