Could well come back around, story was we were waiting Sociedad to finish their japan tour which still isn't done until Friday.

Plenty of other wingers out there but think we see an opportunity here to get a higher calibre of player in than what we might ordinarily be able to. Right place right time sort of thing. I'm happy for us to roll the dice and wait a bit to see how this plays out. Obviously need to have a plan b...

He won't go Liverpool, they're buying Isak with Diaz money. Bayern won't sign him after signing Diaz. Those are only 2 clubs linked with him other than us. We need to meet Lyon's valuation and then we might actually have a shot at getting this done.

We have an attacking left back! Thank GOD

Apparently Sporting agreed a fee for Vagiannidis

We were in for Tete tbf but obviously got gazumped, other than him not sure what frees we would 100% want. Think maybe they're waiting to see what loans become available/feasible towards the end of the window.

Tbh if we're being priced out of moves for wingers I'm not sure how much sense it makes for us to drop 30m+ on Luiz

He has €60m release clause so can't be any higher than that. If I had to guess I would say we've offered around 30 with add ons and they're looking for more like 40.

I think we end up with Kubo based off absolutely nothing other than a gut feeling.

Dibling a good player but not ready to be a starter. Not an equivalent to Kubo/Conceicao

I was initially skeptical of us getting the Kubo deal done due to the sell on, but considering the lack of links to other options emerging I reckon they think they're going to get it over the line.

For the price suggested that left back from Bayern is a no brainer. Understand that there's more desire for a right back because of how long we've needed one, but I would be happy with O'Brien there next season if we had a left back that can contribute going forward.

Have just got back from seeing a very famous Japanese musician, vast majority of the crowd was Japanese. Counted 5 Kubo #10 japan shirts and that was just in my section of the balcony. Didn’t see any Mitoma shirts, only Kubo. He's a top player but think the commercial aspect of this deal could...

Let's see how Armstrong does against Prem sides in the US but that was a quality 45 from him. Right now I reckon moyes is probably leaning more towards keep.

Us and Forest yet again surely
