[JUSTINSIGNAL]

Can’t disagree with the need for a creative mid. Can’t rely on GLC all season and hope TN comes go. No point having a front line like ours if we can’t get the damn ball to them. Hope DL and team pull something out the hat.

We’re not gonna sign another midfielder. NDombele is staying so the club have obviously made a decision to give it a go. I don’t see us adding another midfielder when we’re already overloaded.

 

[glacierSpurs]

Would rather spend the money needed for Ings on a different striker and a more creative midfielder, I feel that'll be more beneficial for the sqaud

Agree. Still prefers Weghorst to Ings, unless Ings fee drops to around £25-30 million.

Bale will not be wearing the 11 shirt

Doesn't surprise me, I think I'd like him to have no 14 but I think he'll take no 9

 

[Rob]

Maybe Ings is seen as the best / most attainable home-grown striker available at the moment. Non-HG spots are at a premium and ultimately there might be none available for a new ST depending on other ins / outs over the next few weeks.

Wilson half the price but we wouldn't budge above £18m when he went for £20m...

 

[nugsie]

Fuck me, £45-50 million for Danny Inngs?!

The fucking state of this game.

 

[Bubble44]

D1 confirmed Bale will No 9

 

[Mr Pink]

Ings feels like another Darren Bent-esque signing to me

He's a far better team player and works much harder than Bent ever did.

That's just their "hands off" valuation tbf.

Club can spend that money better elsewhere, but must have been misinformed that the fans are "desperate for sign Ings"

Our two main targets were the Celtic lad and regulion , but we do have an interest in ings

as I’ve said Thete is a big sell on clause to psg we will see

 

[Rob]

When Soton said they'd do a deal, Levy misheard 50 as 15...

For the people laughing at this, I'm not really joking

 

[rossdapep]

I'd take Ings if that's who Jose and the club want. I have some reservations but it's not like he'd be our main striker and you can't really turn your nose up at his scoring record.

 

[SpartanSpur]

For the same money it's Edouard (Celtic Boy) every time for me. JJ and Trix seemed to infer that Carlos Vinicius was number one target though...

We need to pull the 'Lo Celso' card then

No chance I can’t see saints selling him at all I would probably take a crazy bid for them to even pick up the phone. Him leaving would probably cost them relegation, with the amount of goals he’s scores. Premiership football is worth around 100m so anyone thinking infamous would go , especially for under 50m is dreaming

Do psg over twice, love it!

Edit: unfortunately we can't though as we already have the two loan limit in Bale and Gedson.

 

[JKendall13]

Dragon was banging the drum for Reguilon when no one else was, so he deserves benefit of the doubt. But I’m pretty sure no one else vaguely reliable in ITK or the media has said anything about Edouard.

Praying he’s right again.

 

[fishhhandaricecake]

Dragon:

As I mentioned we passed on Ramsey this week due to finances but the board now feel we are light in midfield and. Are open to bringing someone in

we can debate Tanguy all day but he is staying due to the fact no one will pay anywhere near what he paid so everyone involved ie jose , dL , tn that we should try and make a go of it but can
he last 90 mins and play 3 times a week , who knows , so the post is accurate , we are a glc inj from disaster
those saying ings won’t come are wrong , we pay the 45-50 he comes

This is extremely promising but literally no idea where we get the cash for a striker, CM and possibly a CB. Very good that the board and Jose realise the issue with CM because as Dragon says we are a GLC injury away from having no-one in CM who can get the ball to the attacking players, fine about keeping faith with Tangy and promising signs recently but again as it says can he last 90 mins and play 2 or so times a week as he looks very far off being able to do that at the moment so again if GLC gets injured we are screwed for any creativity. Ings is interesting, RH was pretty stern saying Ings has no desire to come here and he'll look quite stupid if they now sold us to him that's more for the Ings threat but if we have a warchest out of no-where and Ings want's to come then bloody great as he's absolutely class.

The excitement just goes on and on with the information from this 6ft 1 powerhouse legend that is Dragon.

Would still be 10-2 to them for us signing aurier.

For those panicking about Bale, go and look at the club Bio on Twitter. Sorry that it’s in here, an admin locked the thread.

No. 9 it is then ?

16:03:11:09 and a "home".

Bale's old and new number?

He's coming home. Never in doubt. ?
