Can you be trusted though?

Think I've shown myself to be a responsible adult in the last few minutes mate

Not really new info but makes sense

Well you've convinced me Bungle

He was supposedly given permission yesterday to talk to us. So easy to think he may have travelled up to here. While a fee was agreed, if at all.

It feels pretty unusual for a player to be given permission to speak to a club while they are struggling to agree a fee.

It does. Maybe it was given as both clubs thought it would be agreed, so got ahead of themselves. Yesterday it maybe sounded a touch closer than it did today

The deal will get done, Southampton know it and we know it, they'll haggle some more and come up with a compromise that suits both parties. Dibling being given permission to talk to us just saves time with negotiating the players contract

Soton in information warfare mode. They might try unsettle Evertons resolve.
Next move. Transfer request.

They are paid handsomely to close out deals. If they cant do it we will have to find those who can.

….that means paying the asking price, regardless of the players worth. I think we’ll keep the ones we have.

Fabulous insight from Elton.

Did Branthwaite not agree terms with United? Think it’s fairly normal

Absolutely outrageous this.

We should have had all but about a couple of deals to tie up at this stage. We're miles off we where want to be, then it'll be bedding what we do get in eventually.

First 6 weeks of the season will be a very uphill climb.

Amateurs.

Indeed my son.

God bless.

I love that Elton Welsby has obviously woken from his afternoon slumber after a drunken columbo marathon and thought he'd get involved

The first 36 could be a uphill climb

Don't think that happened
