That's the ultimate football job dream, when Boro paid Merson's brother a wedge to live with him because he was lonely, then they moved Gazza and Five Bellies in with them (all into Ravanelli's old mansion by all accounts).

Also it looks like Oliver Skipp is going on loan to Norwich for a season. Possibly a sweetner for max aarons.

Messis not going to city, hes done this two or three times before, he just wants rid of abidal and an extra zero on his pay cheque

Also he wouldnt get in the team with big phil foden on the rise

Also good on big dave silver for trolling the fascists (unless sociedad are fascists too idk)

Gotcha.

More spurs rumours. Aurier off to ac milan and matt doherty coming in from wolves. Now that seems like a proper mou signing (pretty expensive and 29). The sort that levy would never normally go for.

I think an aging Messi coming into a new team in a more physical league wouldn’t work that well at 33 so I definitely agree it’s to get more control at the club. Long may his arrogance drive Barca into the ground.

Looks like Batshuayi to Leeds had some substance to it, Chelsea have said they're happy to sell and have asked for £20m. Money in football is devoid of meaning so I have no idea whether this would be a good deal or not

It's fine, it's fine, it's fine, just watch the highlight videos, we just didn't play our second-most-expensive signing of all time while locked in a relegation battle because duh we're west ham and don't know what to do with him, just sign the cheque and he's yours. Don't have your chequebook? Fine, just an IOU, write whatever number you want on it.

According to the Guardian, Arsenal have had a bid accepted for Gabrielle from Lille. All I know about him is that he is a defender, which is good, and Brazilian, and that Arsenal have a bad track record with Brazilian defenders named Gabriel.

I honestly don’t even remember at this point. Keeping track of all of Arsenal’s bad defenders is a big ask. I just remember him looking good at first and then declining and falling down in the pecking order. All pretty standard stuff for an arsenal defender signing.

Apparently he was just released from Huddersfield? Arsenal also just signed a kid defender who was released from Spurs, and have no scouting network, so it seems like their new strategy is to do things more cheaply and stupidly than all of the other clubs.

He was good in his first season with us, too, but then defenders twigged all they have to do is show him outside and he's completely powerless. Seriously there's a load of clips of him doing rabonas because he is the most right-footed player to have ever played on the left wing (and yet somehow he looks even more useless in the centre or on the right). I wonder if anyone collects stats on "Just runs straight into a fullback" because I'm certain he'd be a world leader in that at least.

With Diangana coming back and playing mostly on the left, then maybe they'll put him in the centre of we don't sell him. His one footedness wouldn't be as big of a problem there (if he can dislodge the mighty Mark Noble from his new position as attacking midfielder)
