I am going to go out on a limb and say the NFL partnership will not be a big hit with supporters in the long-run.

My guess is that putting an NFL field inside a football stadium is going to keep fans further from the pitch, and make the atmosphere much more sterile, and make the stadium feel more generic.

Good for the bottom line though I suppose.

How so? They have NFL matches at Wembley and it doesn't seem to affect the stadium design and atmosphere.

Kramer and Thorgan Hazard?

Both have been playing at the same club in Germany, Hazard is from Belgium, and is a midget.
Same grocer = same club selling them. Christoph Kramer is a Bayer Leverkusen player. He's only been on loan at Gladbach.

Don't start the periodic Carlton Cole rumour, this place will go all 'Jonestown'

Carlton...Kohl?! I'll stop now. Erm...cabbages are from the brassica family, brassic = skint, we're signing a big man and a little man on free transfers? The Brussels one makes most sense to me, the Atletico one would make sense if the cabbage thing linked up somehow...

I've no idea, I'm clutching at slaws.

Yeah I know - tenuous at best, but only scenario I can think of with a Belgique and German playing at the same club.

Small cabbage = Brussel Sprout = Belgian player.

From the same grocer = same team.

Has to be Toby and Suarez. Just not sure on the relevance on the larger cabbage bit

Toby and Suarez would not be so sensitive of info that the source does not want the answer given out yet. We've had multiple bits of ITK on both of them. Same with Turan(whose not coming to us).

Much more likely to be mitrovic and someone else.

Anderlecht...Mitrovic and Praet? Or Defour? Or Tielemans?

Or maybe just Atletico :rolleyes:
Decent shout I think, Mitrovic who we've been linked with for some time would obviously be the "big" and the "little" Tielemans (unlikely as it may be) seems like a natural alternative to Rabiot as a young, potentially world class deep-lying playmaker.

I have a feeling it might be Mitrovic as I think someone mentioned that the cryptic may have been spoiled by the trix ITK, and Rob said something along the lines of 'we had a good one too'

Don't think it's this. A&C was very judgemental of anybody mentioning TA because of JJ's dismissal. While at the same time mentioning the cryptic.

Plus it seems too obvious to be it and doesn't really fit the cryptic.

Or going from the kraut logic maybe the size relates to age and it's Kramer and Werner, the size relating to age and the grocer being the bundesliga.

I'm going with Mitrovic and Tielemans unless somebody presents more logic.

Cabbage - Brussels, same grocer - both from Anderlecht.

(Smaller) Tielemans is only 5 ft 9 but is one of the biggest talents in world football, sought after by all top teams in Europe, so would definitely fit the reasoning of keeping this cryptic, plus tie in with how excited JJ has been about our midfield target.

Mitrovic is much bigger at 6 ft 3 and we have had ITK on him just before from Trix.

This is also an optimistic view as I would bloody love it to be these two. Even though my head says it would be good to have some experience, I would also love us to build a team of fearless talented youngsters not afraid to challenge anybody.
