  • At least with no crowds returning for a while we can do the protests to the board in installments
  • I’m actually wondering why on Earth would Rice want to stay?

    So that he can bid on ASLEFs sofa =)
  • An investigation on google images turned this up as ASLEF's sofa
  • If Pearce spent the entire game coaching Masuaku then we wouldn’t need a left back. ‘Wake up’ ‘look behind you’ ‘kick it out’ etc for 90 mins and we would have a real gem on our hands. Quite like to see more of him on the left wing also this season.

    This whole “we need to sell to buy” thing is really damaging as a transfer strategy.

    If I knew that ASLEF really wanted to buy a new sofa but the only way he could do it would be to sell me his current sofa and he was desperate to do so, then I would be be lowballing the heck out of that offer.

    ASLEF, if you send me some pics and dimensions, I might be interested in your sofa. Please do not succumb to Alderz’ cheeky low ball offer.
    I have absolutely no intention selling my sofa. I transferred it to my front room from Ikea in 2018 on a 5-year contract although there is a £1000 buyout clause...
  • Buyout clauses are worth little though now Aslef.

    I’m probably at about £300-£350 which at least is significantly more than the £100 offered by Alderz

    I need to also factor in the £50 I need to pay to Diamantis for brokering the deal
  • I’d swap the sofa for cresswell think it would make a better defender
  • Aslef, do you know if your sofa actually wants to be transferred away from your front room? Have you asked?
  • Sorry but unless the sofa puts in a transfer request then it is going to be part of my plans for the foreseeable future. It has been a key part of my pre-season, I've been off work since the Sunday before last and have spent most of it on the sofa.
  • Man utd are interested in the sofa and will offer £30m plus Jesse Lingard

    And I thought I was lowballing...
  • Why did I think there would be actual transfer news on here.

    Of course it's all about a sofa.

    Some people doubt whether players and managers read these forums! here is the proof no sooner than it appears on here as desirable and this pair are trying to tap it up and take it to Chelsea.
  • Jorderz, all this talk about the sofa is just a ploy to “cushion” the blow of Grady leaving.
  • That just seems like a throw away comment to me..

    So our transfer policy is we have 7 wingers
    - so need to sell one who doesn’t want to leave, is in manager’s plans, has played in Premier League, for £12m-£18m
    - to buy a championship winger, for £20m
    I now know how our owners made all their money. Makes so much sense!
  • Sofa there has been zero positive news regarding transfers.
  • I blame the couch
  • I blame the couch

    I recline to agree, but before I make an offer is it a chesterfield ?

  • Regarding a CB, anyone think Nicolás Ottamandi is worth tabling a bid for?

    Unless He's sitting on a sofa I doubt it......

    That one of those Ikea sofas?
  • Or chaise Longue is supposed to be good worth a punt
  • A dynamic forward in the Mongolian third division :+1:
  • It’s hard to stomach the Diang news but we do have to be realistic here. Facts are, the owners can’t finance us, Moyes needs to raise his own pocket money & we have a plethora of attacking options.

    We can only sell somebody if there is a buyer. All very well saying ‘flog Lanzini/Anderson’ but nobody wants them & Moyes has just over a week before the season starts.

    We can’t wait forever.
  • But it seems like Moyes needs to raise some funds to pay for Pelle & Husillos’ expensive mistakes?
  • Yep it's a good point Luke but I'm pretty sure they are gonna flog Rice as soon as an offer comes in.
