Muck work?!

going through the motions

I agree totally.
I know that some on here didn't like him , but we desperately could do with a couple of Phil Neville type players.

There's certain posters on here that will scoff at almost every name that gets brought up so I wouldn't let it deter you on mentioning players that you think could offer something to the club

Paddy the Baddy’s update on the “State of play” is somewhat worrying

Nothing we didn’t know already so what’s the worry?

Doesn't seem like a very us thing to do to be scouting young talent from South America, so probably nonsense. Is a right winger though. More likely that we sign his teammate Lucas Moura!

Part of a Sao Paolo u20 side that won the biggest 2 youth competitions in Brazil last season.

Direct and 2 footed, yes please.

Joao Palhinha is available, apparently. Fulham favourites (naturally) according to Simon Jones of the DM. We'd be fools not to enquire. Quality player.

This is why "utility men" like Weah could be the order of the day. He played RW, RB, LW, LB, RM, LM and CF last season. Could be a canny signing.

I’d rather we bought specialists for each position, being a utility player has worked against a lot of our players, mainly defenders, Holgate, Galloway, Browning, Godfrey. I hate it when we swap them around LB, RB and CB and they never get to be coached in one position properly. That’s what I was fearful of with O’Brien.

Hard to argue with this counter when it comes down to defenders, especially as it tends to unsettle a back 4. What I will say is, though, players who can play across the front line are much more natural/fluid in doing so. Moreover, I'd imagine we'd only use Weah at LB/RB in an absolute emergency.

That's very annoying, like boil and p1ss annoying, why would an article for the New York Times redirect to the Athletic.?

Because it owns the Athletic.

It's basically saying we won't be signing any players until July when the new PSR season starts.

And that the sale of Maupay is what was needed to balance the books.

@matty1878 told you this would be the case.
