  1. The coincidences just seem to follow that account. Very unlucky!
  2. Why? its been painfully obvious that would be the case.
  3. Why on earth does the club, who've made the best part of £200m, have to sell before they can buy. Fuck Sports republic.
  4. I suspect Genk are pretty keen he comes here if that bags them Onuachu. Don't know anything about this bloke though, so not too bothered if we don't get him. We've got enough depth on the wing anyway, even if / when Tella is off.
  5. Oh he has been me as well - guessing you get the usual laughing emoji to every comment also..? It's 100% him. Mickyboy made a comment about a post a 'former' poster made about bertrand in about 2018. The same comment Always use to make and the same one which caught Chapel end out. The numpty isn't even smart enough to hide it 🤣
  6. Lets hope its the former at this point. Just seen Bournemouth are in for Daka - would potentially rule them out of the race for Adams? Unless Solanke goes.
  7. Personally, I'd rather we kept Che. He's proven he can score goals at this level and has saved us in pretty much all 3 games this season. Unfortunately, keeping him looks unlikely, so we need to look at next best options. One of those being the man who score a fair few under our new manager in the same league, just last season.
  8. Clearly not the only replacement in the world, you're making it up that anyone has said that. He was absolutely the most obvious and arguably least risky move we could have made. Also, according to @Pilchards, whom imo is a genuine ITK, was our number 1 target to replace Che. The evidence suggests we we're in for and interested in him (much like it was that we're open to sell Che), but if you don't want to believe that, you do you.
  9. Sorry, little to no time to replace adequately.
  10. We agreed a deal in principle with Everton, until they had no money to give us. We're clearly not going to give him away for nothing or way below our value, but that also doesn't mean that we aren't willing for him to go. Reports suggest we are and that the player wants to leave. We were allegedly in advanced negotiations for Piroe. Loads of reports have suggested he was our top target to replace Che. We obviously didn't want to sign him whilst Che was still at the club, rightly or wrongly. Lets agree to disagree then re-asses in a weeks time 👍
  11. We rejected an offer from Bournemouth for £10m earlier in the window, then couldn't agree a deal with Everton for £15m because they had no cash to give us up front.
  12. I've not made that assumption at all. We'll bring in a center forward, I'm certain of it. I've no confidence they'll be any good though
  13. FWIW - I'm not doubting he wont be replace. He'll be replaced, but it'll be by our 2md, 3rd, 4th choice. Not someone proven at this level in our exact system. Missing out on Piroe is a fuck up by the club, its as simple as that.
  14. Pretty simple. You We're very open to Adams leaving. It wont take a lot to get him, £15m with £5m of that upfront. We accepted a bid, until it became obvious that Everton have no actual money to pay with - that doesn't mean we haven't 'softened our resolve' on him. We're wide open for him to leave. Because we wanted Piroe, didn't mean we were going to let Adams walk away for basically nothing. He's obviously going though, we know that, we should have had a plan in place to anticipate that.
  15. Because we've not accepted a ridiculously badly structed deal, doesn't mean we're not completely open to selling him. All we asked for is c. £5m up front (allegedly). Does that not sound like a club who's pretty soft to the player leaving.
  16. Which is fair and I've said, missing on Piroe means we cannot now sell Che. Unfortunately, we all know how this ends. More than willing to eat my humble pie if it doesn't, i'm really confident it will though.
  17. There's certainly question marks over the validity of that report, but its completely possible that he's simply fed up of waiting. We've been fanning around in no mans land because we don't know what will happen with Che and they have put the money down and made it work.
  18. Have we not already softened our resolve for Adams though? If reports are to believe, which I do, we accepted £15m for him. The only reason he's not an Everton player now is because they have no actual cash to pay us.
  19. Welcome back Always @tdmickey3
  20. He might be the same as AA in terms of style, but he has a physical presence that AA doesn't have. He's proven to score goals in Martins system as a lone striker, AA isn't. We tried AA through the middle all pre-season and looked toothless. We tired him in 2 of our 3 opening games and looked toothless. Agree with the rest of the statement though - I don't really rate Manning, but so, so. Lets hope we have someone decent lined up to replace Adams - I wont hold my breath though.
  21. Maybe - I can guarantee you that I'm not wrong about Micky boy being the same person as Always_sfc and Chapel_end though
  22. I think anyone with a degree of sensibility knew we'd shift a load of players. If anything, we've not shifted enough. For me, the biggest issue is we're a week away from the end of the window, transfer targets are moving on and we're very likley to lose 2 probably 3 or 4 of our best players with little to no time to replace. Selling isn't the problem, the fact is we've given ourselves little to no time to replace them. As I said earlier, had Piroe came in last night, the noise around Adams wouldn't be half as bad.

    MArtin summed it up in his press conference. He's aggressive and has a disire to win. We need some of that in the squad, Martin said that himself. I'm convinced he'll prove loads wrong.
  24. Exactly how I see it. HAs we signed Piroe this week, then there wouldn't have been so much noise and concern around Adams.
  25. Ridiculous strong midfield. Wouldn't be upset with that in the division above, to be honest.
