I think Gordon does that anyway, looks like Willock will be unlucky to miss out when Joelinton is back in midfield? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Aye I think Wilock will be the one to miss out.  Which for him will be harsh.  Longstaff does the dirty hard yards off the ball and for that I think he stays in.

You know nothing chinese mouse penis - I took one about 15 years ago as I had to go backwards to go forward. You just gotta do what you gotta do sometimes.

And oh how I miss those dreads, unfortunately old age isn't conducive to having natty hair as it falls the fuck out :(

 

You've got a top knot now. I've never been more certain of anything in my life.

Bruno is better at the front of the midfield 3 than Willock tbf

Also I said no one in their right mind takes a paycut. Back in those dreads days you would have been permanently off your box on the Aussie equivalent of spice (spoiiice). 

 

So you don't qualify. 

 

Fuck off, didn't you get huge payout from Northern Rock just so they could get some actual workers in?

No doubt you're the Jonjo of accountants, all long balls to no one and breathing out your arse when effort is required.

Fontaines on Wednesday night, Yard Act on Thursday and Jonjo out the fucking door with a couple more upgrades in by Wednesday lunchtime (AEST) PLUS a result at SJP and I'll be all fizz.

I got NOTHING from those fools. I left just after they got bought by Clydesdale. 

 

I would have been due a good whack of redundancy if I'd stuck around to let things play out, but I could no longer be contained by those clowns and had to spread my wings.

I’ve seen both of them, Fontaine’s were great yard act a bit meh but they were supporting Foals under a railway arch in Manchester which that didn’t help tbh…

Sheff Utd are owned by a Saudi Prince, so auld MBS might get on the blower and threaten him with a trip to a hotel for a few months, like when Bin Salman rounded up a few Princes and imprisoned them until they submitted to his rule. I was going to include a smiley face at the end of that previous statement but as it went along it no longer seemed appropriate 😂 On a side note, for the deal to make sense for Sheffield United it would need to be a large loan fee and an obligation to buy I'd imagine. Otherwise why would you just loan arguably your best player when you are trying to get promoted, you know apart from the Saudi connection as mentioned. When Sheff Utd were in the PL I do recall plenty of pundits waxing lyrical about Berge. A defensive mid with a bit of class and who can chip in with the odd goal. He's also like 6'4 so him Joelinton could absolutely dominate for us. 

 

He's closer to Longstaff and Willock than he is to an actual out and out DM.

Cheers F-Man.  Knew we could rely on you.

Do you have a visual comparison v Longstaff for retards like me? 

 

Nope.

 

But I can probably sort one out, given time.

Surely makes it more likely Gallagher is surplus to requirements? 
 

I appreciated Howe doesn't want to be left short in midfield, but if a team of willing to take a high earning, non playing squad member off our hands then it's a no brainer

Aye I think he's the most sensible option. Give us an option to buy too.  He certainly fits the Howe mould.

People are saying he’ll be a miss but I can’t remember the last time he kicked a ball :lol:

gallagher is great, but he's quite similar to willock and joelinton, isn't he? a sort of ball-carrying midfielder with loads of energy who will progress the ball up field.

 

being super greedy, i'd like us to sign either a player with the positional discipline to play the DM role, but who can also spray the ball around, such as jorginho  - he is probably a better upgrade on shelvey in that sense, though i dunno if he has the legs to play howe's way. 

 

the other area where we're light in midfield is the door-opening department, which is why maddison would be such a good buy. we are only an injury to bruno away from our CM looking quite one dimensional.

 

whatever happens, transfer windows are a good crack these days, aren't they?
