He still looked the part against us last season and for Germany in the euros - or perhaps @Isegrim can tell me if that’s a bad shout Alreet Captain Kirk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't wait for the Minteh dribblers to start tbh. He got an assist and a brain injury at the weekend and you'd think he'd buried the hat trick that relegated us and his cock in the collective mas of everyone crying about his assist on socials.

I mean the lads meant to be a fantastic prospect. Nothing but a colossus fuck up by someone, that we’ve ended up having to sell him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 6816 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 (edited) 1 hour ago, Dr Gloom said: this is exactly the sort of alternative deal for a centre half I was talking about. I confess I know little about him but he just won the Bundesliga, so clearly no mug, and he’s £20-30m cheaper then Guehi, leaving us more cash to get a RW I can't keep up. Ornstein reporting NUFC are interested in their other CB, which suggests it's not us interested in this one. And if this one goes to Palace to replace Anderson, and Leverkusen keep the one we want, then Palace have royally fucked us this window Edited August 21 by Kid Dynamite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing but a colossus fuck up by someone, that we’ve ended up having to sell him. It's not necessarily a fuck up. End of the day, the PSR has fucked all ambitious clubs, but unlike Villa and Brighton and the rest we've been poorly managed since 2007. Selling Minteh wouldn't have been the issue, we'd have made a fortune selling all manner of shitcunts over the years. Instead, we have to sell a promising fringe player not because the new owners have necessarily made a mistake, but because of a crippling injury record last season and over a decade of negligence and poor transfer business. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 42580 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 (edited) We could have kept Minteh and sold Bruno, Gordon, or Isak though. That was also an option. It was more or less the other option available. Because the problem with offloading your shit players for a profit is that you can't.

Gemmill 42580 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 The point I'm making is there were no good options, and this was the least worst option. And I don't think it was a fuck up by anyone. We tried shifting people in the Jan window and we couldn't and we were up against the reality of an unacceptable PSR loss on a specific date, and so Anderson and Minteh went, and now at least one of them is a never-played-a-game-for-the-club twitter folk hero. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are people still crying about that left back we rinsed Everton for too? Back in the day he was the second coming of Maldini according to twatter experts and I don't think he's kicked a ball for them.

The Fish 10422 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 I know it's pretty blinkered of me, but whenever I see that CT has dared stray into Football Chat I immediately think "Well, this is going to be utter bollocks". So far this prejudice has been utterly and categorically earned, but still, I think I need to work on that. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isegrim 9577 Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Hummels has been amazing the last 12 months. Many wanted him to play for Germany again. Him being out of contract seems strange, but he didn’t want to sign a bad contract so far. He had bad spells before though and I am not sure that it’s worth to sign hin on a short term contract because he would still need to adapt to a different football culture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
