Eight players. Good God. This is all a dream.

Haven't heard of eight but, Kasper S, Bergovic, Witsel, Mata, Milik, The Fiorentina midfielder, The Sabestian fella from Utrecht, and Koulibaly ?

Marks out of eight please?

Five

I feel the love in here today far better than it has been!

8 players? So how many of them are going to be first team players? How many are going to take all summer to sign (e.g Milik).

If that is all in order and the club are active then great. I'm curious about outgoings now and more specifically when they will start to happen.

If we sign that striker reported in the Echo today, surely the headline has to be "Got Milik"

Ashtonian · July 11, 2016

the other thing i am curious about. At southampton Koeman could rotate his strikers as he had no outstanding talent. So none of them commanded a role in the team.

Now he does have one, so how can he rotate Lukaku if he is in form?

I was always a bit shabby at Maths so there is no way I could quickly work out the possible amount of permutations available from this.
It should keep some of the nutters entertained for a bit this morning trying to read into Esks subliminal messaging rather than exploding their heads and beating each other up.
Enjoy !

Peak activity currently, we are in active discussions for 8 players to my knowledge although not all of those can be realistically expected to close and a couple are for the same position.

At half time mate, turns him around and tells him to score into the opposite end

With the current political climate across the country I would have thought that any headlines up on Merseyside would be more along the lines of this being "The Milik that Thatcher can not steal."

They've all been reported in the papers, fella.

Correct my assumption too, but we now have an idea that five out of the eight are "could be goers" whereas before we were leaving it to WUM brigade and the genuine ITK, and guessing.

Thanks to @ The Esk we have five names to ponder.......Keep it positive mate, you will live long and prosper
