    Oh yeah, oh yeah, everything is terrible.

    Mbeumo is a good signing no doubt, but realistically this should've been wrapped up at least a month ago

    Tbf, I personally think it has the potential to be a good signing if:

    a) Mbeumo can apply himself on a much bigger stage than Brentford's. No offence lurker Bees.
    b) Mbeumo can apply himself away from Frank who has been his coach since he was 19.

    Anyway, my comment was based solely on @AFoolsGlory and his hesitation.

    Just to clarify, he's a good player and will undoubtedly make the team better. Is he worth £70m? I'm skeptical, but I guess when you've got Gittens going for £50m, Elanga going for £55m, then you'd say that's his value. I just think it's an overpayment when the team has way bigger needs than another 10, and clearly has limited funds.

    It would mean in the current squad for two positions, they have - Mount, Mainoo, Zirkzee, Cunha, Mbeumo, Bruno and Amad when not in other positions. Plus whatever combination of Rashford, Garnacho, Sancho, Antony stay at the club. Feels overloaded when they've only got 1 game a week.

    Not to mention fucking about and dragging the move out for over a month, just to pay more than the initially quoted price.

    Has anyone checked on @Garrett ?

    If Cardiff get their Bale takeover and Wrexham keep rising, Welsh football is the new black.

    We’ll never have that 2012 season again, but if he wants to spend money trying by all means.

    Woah Kai has gotten jacked over the summer, fair play. Used to have the muscle mass of a 13 year old.

    Yeah I was just looking at his face for about 5 minutes after posting that and thinking “Is this terrible photoshop or AI.” I sort of think they ran an actual photo of his through AI to make him more buff lmao

    Defensive contribution points coming to FPL next season! Looks like it will really favour CBs that play 90 minutes.

    Long overdue change. Shame it's limited to 2 points, though I guess it would be overkill given the potential double dip of defensive contributions points + clean sheet points.
