Be good

Having a conversation with yourself is a common trait amongst cult members
When you start answering yourself out loud you know there’s no way back

Oh damn that's me finished then. Yeah I guess it is mate.

Ah, the accepting reality posts have started.

Don’t worry
One crazy rumour will have the sheets soaking again

@Brisan123 please learn to multi-quote ffs

I can multi quote but I choose not to
Is that a problem

Its hard when we have to adhere to PSR & the chosen top teams can do what they want ..... Chelsea being the main offenders....

They have just added 100m to their transfer pot

 

[Neiler]

Well, the 2 seconds I was excited, were at least that

Let’s give Juve a few bob, so they can sign him.

Francisco Conceição recusou o Everton e está longe da Juventus | Abola.pt | Abola.pt

Italianos não conseguem chegar ao valor pretendido pelo FC Porto e nem sequer fizeram oferta formal

And that's before the dosh they'll get for the lad they are selling to Arsenal.

One sale a week till end of the window and they'd still have double our squad nos.

Without a bit of sorcery we aren't getting close..

We never seem to have much luck signing players from the Portuguese league. Mugged off more times than I’ve had hot dinners!

So true that

Luis Diaz
Manny Fernandes
Moutinho
Banega
Brahimi
Veloso
Fernando
William Carvalho

At least we managed to get Francisco Jr over the line

Edit: Banega was in Spain, apparently he's never played in Portugal even though he's the most Benfica coded player in history

I think Porto are massively (and rightly) annoyed with Juve so he may not get his wish. The deal was fully agreed last year but now Juve are saying “we think he’s not worth that so you’ll take less and like it”. Juve have big problems until they talk Man U into taking Vlahovic.

Agree Bakayoko could’ve been ideal, always a long shot at that price.

thinking back to Moyes comments back at the end of the season about wanting future international players, I reckon we’ll be looking closer to home for purchases. Just my reading of his comments. Definitely potential risks with all the players mentioned but also upsides. I also don’t think fellows is as limited or as slow as has been suggested.

Aside from bakayoko, do you have players in mind you’d want to see on wing?

If I release my grasp on reality for a moment, Mbeumo or Neto would be great!

Bring me left footed, right sided Ndiaye.

If I didn't have a job and family, I'd Zat my way through every YouTube vid from obscure leagues around Europe to find the u23 diamond in the rough we all crave.

Therefore I just look into who gets mentioned here. Time to look up Francisco Conceicao and see if he fits the bill....

 

[Rita_Poon]

These need doing with ever more absurd pictures.

Seen some Villa fans turning their noses up at the prospect of Luiz going back there, according to them his decline in form started before he left for Juve.

Fwiw I thought he looked quality everytime I saw him play in the PL, but interesting nonetheless.
