Didn't realise Rui Costa was Benfica President. I'm assuming it's THE Rui Costa? What a player he was. When Fiorentina had him and Batistuta they were a fun team to watch.

Sporting pull the plug on the Pedro Porro transfer

Sounds like they've changed the terms late on.

Don't think they have got their target to replace him sorted so maybe a delaying tactic from Sporting.

Weston McKennie signing for Leeds

Ted is collecting Americans

Messy situation going on between Arsenal/Brighton & Caicedo. Arsenal have offered £70m and Brighton turned it down "within minutes".

You have to respect Brighton and the way they're ran as a club. They've sold Bissouma, Cucurella, White, Trossard, Mwepu, Burn & lost Graham Potter. Caicedo has acted like a bellend, posting that he's "proud" to bring in a record transfer fee etc.

Fair play to Brighton for sticking to their guns. Always nice to see Arsenal being brought down to earth.

Be easier to tell us who Forest aren't after.

Pop a bid in for Coady as well.

It worked for us for 4 years, why not give it a shot...

 

[Tony Towner]

If a relegation rival want Saiss and Boly in their back 4 then I'm all for it

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

I can't imagine Saiss will want to play with Shelvey.

Cancelo heading to Bayern on loan

Cancelo heading to Bayern on loan

Did he fall out with Pep? Seemed to be their best player last season.

 

[Tony Towner]

Something has gone on there, second name after Ederson on the team sheet last season

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Pep just likes doing weird shit.

Or if you're into your conspiracy theories, the deal City did with Juve for Cancelo was veeeeery iffy (massively overvaluing Danilo, who is shit) and they want him off the books before UEFA come sniffing...

 

[Jack Regan]

Yep definitely odd, he'd not been as good this year but seems like something has occurred behind the scenes.

Pep seems to have a massive problem with fullbacks in any case, City have gone through so many since he took over.

 

[Carrotdude]

It helps that Rico Lewis is so good tbf but you’d imagine something has gone on. Pep does randomly drop players for 10 games after they were playing every minute - see Foden as a prime example

 

[Tony Towner]

Everton are using the Gordon money to try and buy Conor Gallagher. As an effective swap that would be great business and he'll suit a Dyche side. I'd be surprised if he doesn't have better options though
