    Sure PG tips....but that is a risk with any player and no previous would make me particularly concerned with Oblak on that front.

    That BBC report is particularly glowing. I'll be keen to see if Auntie Ali lives up to that.

    The sweeper keeper thing does sometimes amuse me though, as if it's a new thing. I was practically playing like that in my school days! Suppose we've seen less of it in England till recently though.

    It is a risk with any player. Hopfully he's not that unlucky. But that's why I'm skeptical of all this talk on resale value. It's just not wise for any club to invest that sort of money and think it's as 'safe as houses'. As I was saying to Zim, when you factor in injuries, contract length, how the team is performing, mental state of the player, there is no guarantee the value of a player will hold or rise. Last window just gone we were linked with Malcom for £50m. Now I'm seeing stories of him making a move to Everton for £30m. Happens all the time in football. See Draxler. See Bernard, Lucas Moura....

    Everton are signing Richarlison from Watford.

    £50m

    Fifty Million.

    I think I'm done with football. World's gone mad.
    NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.

    Have any of the clubs even thought about setting aside, say, £10m to lower ticket prices?

    He’s the guy that has a lot of goal scoring chances and misses a lot.

    A poor mans Sterling, if there is such a thing.

    Best thing to do is not get involved with the transfer bullshit and switch back on when the season starts. Try to pretend it’s not happening.

    His speciality is falling over every time he enters the box and 'winning' penalties. £50m skill apparently
