Bloke seems a cսnt but would instantly be probably our best defender, as probably would the bloke from Brentford who can't get in their team.

Another Dunk fan if that was possible. Didn't think he'd be leaving Brighton this season. He would be exactly what we need at the back right now.

Not seen much of Kinsky but if he can come out and claim a cross and not be rooted on his line at corners then that is a yes from me

Listened to the cսnt Whetstone's podcast at lunch 

Paqueta deal agreed but won't be finalised for a few days....typical Sullivan 

Traore coming in on a free,  £ to be paid if we stay up.  If we drop then free transfer......another Sully special

Surely Nuno can see we don't need him. Last 3 games without Paqueta and we win all 3.  Get him on the plane.
Yea, since my post I've read some bits that the loan talk has quietened down now, thankfully.

A rumour of a different type going around that Mark Noble is no longer at the club, apparently James Collins said to somebody at Spurs last week that he's no longer there and he is no longer listed on the clubs website. Don't shoot the messenger etc.

It's not the best of sources. The story makes sense if we can get him on loan and buy him if we stay up. He is out of favour at his club, a CB, and right back Hien from Atalanta

Sullivan may be interested as he loves everything that is “2-Bobb”

SSN now reporting the Paqueta deal is just over 41m Euros which is pretty much what they offered 2 weeks ago and we rejected.
Apparently we want them to loan him back to us until the summer but he wants to go now.
Seems like he does have us over a barrel afterall.

This seems to happen too often when we sell big names.
Payet, Arnautovic, Kudus and now Paqueta. 
Even Rice only wanting to go to Arsenal stopped us getting even more for him.

Why the fuck are we not trying to get Bobb instead of Traore. Fulham are having a result getting rid of a has been and reacing him with a City £35m youngster.

I have every faith that Sullivan will now activate his cunty clause button and instead go and loan a PSG Defender they have zero use for. Geezer's an Email negotiating King! 🤴💻

Paqueta off, oh well thats the books balanced for Sullivan.  Taty and Pablo fees totalled about £45 million.  Guilherme and Paqueta fees total £57 million. Happy days for Sully as it means we have an extra 9 - 10 million to cover Traore and with the way he haggles on installments ( incoming its within 18mths and outlays over 3-5 years) the cash flow keeping the club afloat gets a nice boost.  

Dont be surprised if we get no CB or other midfielders in. Yet another window where outgoing players far outbumber incoming players
