If we have agreed on a fee with Lyon, I’m pretty sure Ndombele could go back from his holiday to get the deal done. I don’t think we necessarily have to wait until the vacation is over to get it done.

He could do but he doesn’t have to. It’s his holiday at the end of the day - he will want to switch off from all this bullshit and relax.

After Pogba’s quotes - serious ramifications for the whole market in my opinion. Eriksen, Pogba himself and Ndombele to name but three. Merrygoround

He's not ruling us out. Good sign. Fingers crossed. He could transform us. Poch could improve him. Match made in heaven.

Now is when Levy earns his big salary. C'mon, Daniel, you know you want to.

Can't help but feel like he's waiting for other clubs though. But I don't think anyone can promise game time like we can

Apparently there are latest quotes from Pogba admitting he wants to leave United. Hope we are able to wrap this deal up before United come sniffing. Not to mention the likes of Juve and Madrid. One of them is gonna miss out on Pogba so may turn to Tanguy as an alternative.

You can bet your life Aulas is banking on that.

If you watched the interview there is a certain knowing embarrassed smile when he is asked about Tottenham.

The full quote:

"Yes, it's true Tottenham is a great team, it's a big club, they finished fourth in their championship, they are Champions League finalists, it's still a big club like any other. Which player would not be interested in a big club?"

Ah okay. It’s almost that time. Gazumped o’clock is around the corner. Have Chelsea officially appealed yet? This one is right up their alley.

The pessimist in me infers that he is making a come-and-get-me plea to other clubs. Would have preferred it if he kept quiet about it tbh.

Pre season will probably start around 9th July for some players. With Tanguy going on his hols can't see much happening until early July so two weeks of more debate will he won't he , think I will just watch Royal Ascot , Tour de France and forget about football for awhile.

The guy just wants a rest for a week or so. We seem to forget all the softer stuff of moving to another club.

  • New culture to adapt to
  • No friends and social community until you've built rapport with team
  • Different language
  • Family uprooting
  • More pressures associated with a bigger team
There are so many personal decisions that go into a transfer beyond commerical and professional. I'm not worried at all if this goes on another two weeks as these players need to rest up and enjoy time off.

I'm hoping this isn't going to be a problem with Lloris and Sissoko helping closely. Poch is like a father figure and the rest of our team are fucking diamond. Not an ego in sight.

He said we’re a big club. I assume he meant to say biggest. Must’ve got lost in translation.

I feel More confident about Lo Celso than this guy but you never know, might get both.
