How's that, if they've just replaced a single player with another?

Also got rid of Chalobah and Loftus-Cheek. They didn't play a lot but it means they are really light in CM.

Foggy indeed, can't believe it's 4 years since that episode, I dread to think on some of the others.It's got to be at least four years ago now.......some plum (can't remember who) kept on and on and on posting unverified/media links and the 'Bayern In For' was the final straw for his ITK thread life....... anyway, I posted about it in the OP of the daily thread and it all took off from there, people picked up on it and here we are.....I can't remember who Bayern were supposedly in for, but I think it wasn't one of our targets more one of our players......but it's all foggy now
Anyway, back on topic, let's hope Everton finalise the Gylf soon and we can move onto sorting RB (assuming that is even linked).
I still bet they will hold onto hi until the last day.

We can also look at other positions too whilst waiting until August 31st to sort this one out.

Ah, I see.
That's a lot of money just for some cover though, isn't it?
Think it's unlikely they'd go for him - but I suppose, they've swept in to fuck us over before.

We did and we were wrong. It doesn't mean we're wrong to think it about Barkley.
Situation is different, as well, in that WBA said they weren't selling and their chairman wanted to play 'Billy Big Balls' with DL....Everton want to sell and their manager even says he'll be sold so it's a game of poker until a fee is agreed.

138 pages on Ross Barkley. I doubt many of us expected to see that this summer. You can almost feel the sense of desperation growing among some fans, the type of desperation that led many (myself included) to start believing that Moussa Sissoko would be a half decent signing last time around. Got that one very wrong, but RB clearly has a lot more talent than MS.

Their chairman was a twat though and it all went very public.
Edit - sorry, repetition. @diamond lights beat me to it.

It was a poster called 'spursandbarca' or something similar. He wouldn't post anything in conversation, just random noises like 'Villa (David) to Madrid by Friday' and then disappear from the thread.
'Bayern in for...' was a classic that nobody would let go but cant remember who the hell it was about unfortunately.
Edit:
IT WAS BAYERN IN FOR OZIL

And there we all were thinking you'd gone down to the woods and forgot to come back! That or kidnapped by a Russian Circus. The truth is never quite so exciting...

Pretty sure 'Bayern in for' was more than four years ago as well. More like 5-6 years. The original guess of 2 years ago was ludicrously wrong
EDIT - Ozil left Werder Bremen in 2010, so it was probably around then

Just over 9 hours until midnight....looks like I was wrong.........damn !
We'll forgive your misjudgement in the timing of it happening. However, I think your prediction of it being a done deal remains a possibility as he is still being touted as coming to us.

I might consider converting Sissoko into a meaty Right Wing Back if Poch/Levy can't sell him.
