Paper talk of Traore to Chelsea for £60 million. I'd take that and run personally, though I accept Adama is a unique player and at times last season our only, sporadic threat.

I thought I'd seen there were 4 interviews this week? Maybe from Tim. Anyway, if they've done their research and this is their man is there any point in wasting everyone's time on interviews?

The FAs rules regarding players (and coaches) reflect what they've wanted for years. Brexit gave them the opportunity to implement them without worrying about those pesky EU rules. Under the UK government rules I any footballer joining the Premier league would qualify (I think).

Not surprising as the Q&A this morning, an almost throwaway remark around FFP suggested the club wanted to increase match day revenue (can't remember the exact phrase but something about increasing revenue to match similar clubs?). Need to know the level of increase I suppose but I'm guessing it...

Think we agree on this!

English candidate? Surely Frank Lampard?

Its difficult to put much stock in his stories when they contradict each other, that's positive or negative. Generally it comes across as at best, speculation based on rumour, at worst made up. Like most of these types of article by most outlets.

The only possibility I can see is a years loan. I'm sure I read somewhere that Juve were at their limit of non - Italians and as their manager has said he's not in the plans for this season, sending him to us frees a space and presumably brings them some money. Not sure we particularly need him...

Think it was a 50% sell on and we got£ 6.5million as did the selling club.

Incidentally we got something like £6.5million from Goncalves as well.

Explains the interest in Pepe

Hey I like Vinagre. He's an intrinsic part of our 2025 Champions league winning team.

Maybe it's with reference to Mondays game? No new wingback is likely to pick up our style (at least to Nunos satisfaction) in a couple of days.

Excellent signing with huge potential. We could have some side in 2 or 3 years time.

VAR was 'sold' on the basis of correcting clear and obvious errors. Therefore it was correct to overturn the decision on Liverpool's goal (though if they'd gone back another second they would presumably have disallowed it for VvD handball). There is nothing clear and obvious about the offside in...

Good. Too late for our fans but maybe it will improve things for others (and maybe other clubs will be a bit more organised and have less overtly threatening and violent riot police on duty)!

Well Arsenal have a manager, Nuno is unlikely to be a popular choice with the over entitled Arsenal fan base, Nuno still is not thought of in that 'elite ' group by pundits and unlike most clubs we (Fosun) can match any wage offers from Arsenal if we wish. Throw in that I'm not so sure that...

Hmmm, there are some who would dispute that. Possibly though.

We were supposed to be after Llorente last summer but mysteriously pulled out. Wonder if we thought Dias was coming?

Big advantage to us now but there was enough from Torino to suggest it's not over yet. First goal next week is massive.
