Cherry picking data this a.m. are we? Nabil/ Fazio/ Clinton effectively gone last summer when we bought Big Vic and his merry men. Carroll had a chance, couldn't break through, Winks got promoted in the MF rankings and young Tom left.

This summer, from a squad impact is effectively: 1 out, none in yet....but you know that

Not really, that's a comprehensive list of every player we've sold since we last signed a player.

I've not included those who left for free.

Do enlighten me, oh wise one, how that qualifies as being "cherry picked" when in fact it was a full list with no omissions?

Actually I would take that as a good sign were, turning down more than £50M for a player, People keep saying they want us to act like a big club when we sign players, But we also need to act like a big club when we refuse to sell players.

Says Ayoub is Moroccan-Dutch on wiki not German. That is all I know about him after never hearing of him before and writing his name in google.

So that's Walker, Bentaleb, Fazio, N'Jie and Carroll sold since we last signed a player.

Could someone explain to me how that makes us "stronger", as several on here are claiming?
Click to expand...
Only two regular starters there, Fazio and Bentaleb. Bentaleb first xi place has been taken by Dembele, who is superior, and his bench place has been taken by Winks, who is better. Fazio's first xi place has been taken by Alderweireld, who is better, and his bench place has been taken by Carter Vickers and Wimmer, who are both more suited to Pochettino's system and have far more potential left in them.

Carroll was a youth player who never made it and still fetched us £5,000,000 odd. N'Jie barely made the bench, never mind the first xi. Walker is the first time since Gareth Bale that a current first choice player at the peak of his powers has left us, and with all due respect to full backs the team shouldn't crumble because of the loss of someone in that position, whether his replacement is Trippier, Pereira or KWP.

What we do now have is £50,000,000 to strengthen the areas we are week. Now if I could just bloody figure out where we are weak I'll get my rage on about our lack of signings :D

This is proper SC thinking, we reject a massive bid and people get worried about big names leaving. It literally and I do mean literally proves that we're not selling players we don't want to but still, people get worried :confused:

A&C said Google him, and that's the best you could find?

You haven't mentioned that he can say the alphabet backwards quicker than he can forwards, he's allergic to huckleberries (a real fruit), has a penchant for 18th century Scottish poetry, wears childs size 9 shoes and has a birthmark that looks like Mrs A&C on his buttocks.

Could be something in this. Both FIFA and Transfermarkt say his contract is up in 2018. 1 year left...
