Liverpool have 2nd sewn up - EPL 2018/19

all it'll take is one to VVD tbh

i'm sure athletic club will have plenty of other gk options if kepa goes :/

lol when aduriz finally retires theyre gonna have no keepers or strikers of la liga quality

p sure aduriz will never retire tbh

Herrerín's not too bad iirc.

The stats-based Sky Sports Predictor outed as bitter Leeds Utd fan-bot.

From what I can tell Kepa pretty much kept Bilbao in La Liga last season so they're right to extract such a ridiculous fee from Chelsea.

villa have told spurs to shove it according to sky

tbh

sounds about right

that Sky predictor some kind of fake?

http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11096/11465325/tottenham-finish-as-runners-up-ahead-of-liverpool-manchester-united

nope

lol always thought the football media had something against us

If Cardiff finish above Town then we'll surely deserve to go down, but so not happening Uncle Neil!

Is there any chance that Wolves could just QPR this?

Anything is possible. I'll take a bet with anybody who thinks we'll go down tho.

"Spurs to make big money deadline day bid for Ryan Sessegnon..."

they'd probably be wise to not fuck this one up as well, by offering derisory bids with dud player swap options so close to the deadline. And especially when dealing with a super rich club under no pressure to sell.

Wolves are closing in on a deal to sign Belgium international Leander Dendoncker, according to Sky sources.

The Anderlecht midfielder is travelling to England to discuss personal terms and undergo a medical.

Looks like suddenly Dendoncker's back on? If this does go south it'll be an order of magnitude beyond QPR

Lol just got here same time

sessegnon, grealish, id take that but seems unlikely.

rose and alderweireld out, youd need to raise 100m and replace with a good centre half, doable but again seems a lot at this stage

not much point finishing top four against the odds every season to then refuse the platform tho

Thrilled and terrified at what we're spending. Unifying link is this is a young squad bar Moutinho

Dendoncker makes me wonder if Nuno's gonna persist with Saiss as a centre half tho. By all accounts not his favoured position, and nobody thought he looked comfortable there on Saturday.

glad we've managed to palm off Malone to the Lampard Project. Jesus, we spent 6m on him just because he give us the runaround in 2 champo league games - always the most dud criteria for a signing. He looked like Jim had fixed it for him in the prem.

city have signed another attacking midfielder for some reason, 19yo arzani, who looked decent in the wc.

floggin the ukranian lad to wolves?

looks like kovacic to Chelsea

hard to get excited about us signing jermaine defoe again tbh

Are Spurs fans generally as 'it's ok if we sign noone shrug' like you are?

eh they'll get rojo or smalling as a makeweight for anderweireld

this is apparently true

xp im not happy but at the same time idk.

we are as likely to sign shite as not, we are actually better off without aurier or sissoko and thats 55m, and probably more like 75m if bought today. fuck that.

if pochs ok im ok

if hes not then levy has fucked up hugely

but, if poch has forgotten how to make squad and youth players better, thats a strange turn of events too

Kovacic to Chelsea is already official

damn quick work

He went as part of the Courtois deal

It's only a season-long loan. No option to buy

wait theres a courtois deal now

poch out

So no players either in or out today?

jose: The information I have is no.

out of all the big dogs I wish we were playing Man U first game rather than Chelsea

The absolute best we could hope for at this point is another CB anyway

Not exactly going to get pulses racing

he'll get what he wants

and if not, not getting what he wants is a close second in terms of his preferred MO these days

Manchester United are chasing a deal for Atletico Madrid defender Diego Godin, Sky Sports News understands.

probably bullshit but omfg do it do it do it

totes awks for toby if that happens

Godin's only got one year left on his contract and is 32. I for one would welcome him marshalling the ManU defense.

BREAKING NEWS

Tottenham will not be making a further bid today for Aston Villa midfielder Jack Grealish, Sky Sports News understands.

BREAKING NEWS

Everton officials are in Barcelona trying to finalise a deal for Barcelona defender Yerry Mina, Sky Sports News understands - with the player having a medical in the Spanish city to save time.

fuck you Zinchenko i hope you never play again

That's a real shame. He's uttered he thinks he's got a chance at cracking the 11 at City but I doubt it. He could've been good for youse.

fuck the little wanker
