If we do have somebody coming in and need to ship one or two out then subsidizing a portion of the wages is always an option.

Surely Ritchie would be attractive to some championship sides. Offers absolutely nothing to us.

I know they've got choices but can you think of a more explosive player to bring on in the 60th minute and run tiring defences ragged? They'll be mising out on a trick if they dont take him imo.

Not a lot of credible links at the moment but then we did play Isak pretty close to the chest

Perhaps one of those and a 1 or 2 loans. Anything to upgrade Longstaff, Miggy, Murphy

Shite. With him and Wilson fit you'd think we could have had a real go at Anfield.

Serves me right to leave to 2-0 to watch a bloody cricket game and find out its 1-1. What a cracking effort from Maxi. Even with our limitations this is a team that fights to the end and has belief, Neves can go screw himself with his comments, hope somebody's shoved stats down his thorat so he thinks before neighing out rubbish next time.

Dire reminder a few players still need upgrading. None more than Longstaff. Work in progress boys. A couple of injuries and we're a bang average side again

I rate him higher than Mbappe. Seems to have a much better attitude and less ego than him too. After the way he's snubbed Madrid they should just forget about him and get this guy instead.

Swapping Haaland with Salah as captain yesterday was a genius move

He's ridiculous, made that 3rd goal look so easy when literally any other striker in this league would have struggled to get a shot away. He has a bit of an injury record but if they sort that out he's unstoppable. De Bruyne feeding him as well ffs

Absolutely brilliant signing

Can't wait for the meltdown when we lose our first Champions League semifinal.

Heard things got a bit testy at the medical

Even Eddie has has limitations as Murhpy and co proved yesterday.

We're trying to get rid of players the level of Longtsaff, Murphy and Ritchie mate not add to them.

Probably but Isak must have bought into what we're trying to do here like Bruno, Tripper, Botman. By all accounts the lad is a strong character and obviously fulfills Howe's massive balls criteria.

Would that mean no Maddison?

Its actually a 40% boost if you account for the minimum 20% negative impact Brucey's 'coaching' had on this squad.

Not an easy game that against dirty cunts. Decent performance and result.

Longstaff is a poor man's McTominay

Great analysis from the commentators. Questioning our players' mentality because Lascelles got a bloody nose
