Tbf Southampton usually know a player when they train one.

I'm actually more excited for KDH.

 

Brighton were close to nabbing KDH before he moved to Chelsea but didn’t bite on his valuation at the time. What could’ve been, I really like him

 

I really think you're going to see the best of O'Riley this season anyways!

 

Someone fucking buy him.

edit: apparently a deal worth about £17m + sell ons. Take it and run.

 

Meant to say, but over the weekend I watched Barnet vs Fleetwood as it was on the telly. I wouldn’t bother normally but I actually know Barnet’s new keeper as his sister was my flatmate at university. Lovely guy who has had a decent career in the leagues at teams like Cheltenham.

Thought I’ll see how he does. And he did this… (skip to 55 seconds)

 

Oh dear, still better than Muric.

 

I'm not enjoying this window.

 

Looks like we're getting Cajuste back on loan, which will be a huge signing.
Maybe getting Akpom too, which I'm not too fussed about as he's had one good season in his whole career, but not a bad squad player I guess.

 

The Rodrygo rumors have resurfaced lol

 

Dragusin switching to the #3 shirt is kinda random considering it was available to him when we initially bought him. I’m not sure how much time he’s going to miss but he’s someone that most people have written off. I’m intrigued to see him under Frank though. His biggest weakness was so easily exposed with Ange. He could return to good form with a system that doesn’t make him as vulnerable.

 

Endrick's loan deal to Sociedad fell through, so I'm suspecting at least one of them has to go.

 

We’re a very funny football club and I appreciate the work we put in to be this funny

 

This is what happens when you don’t pay your kit designers I guess lmao

 

"Hold me, bro"

 

Feel like Sesko is guaranteed to be a bust just because of how ridiculously long this is taking lol

 

Aurier going to the Iranian league is so random

 

Tale as old as time - he goes to Manchester = guaranteed bust. He goes to Newcastle = the next Isak, worth hundreds of millions in 2 years time.

 

I would sign up for another year or Hojlund and Zirkzee and worry about a striker next summer if it meant putting that Šeško money towards a Baleba or Wharton.

 

100% this

 

Agreed, plus now there's the option of Mbeumo filling in, or a year older Obi getting more experience. They must be so high on Sesko to commit when there's other holes in the squad.

 

Do you United just want to outscore the opposition? I mean, I know that's fundamentally the objective, but in the transitions they're going to be picked apart.

 

I guess the first step is being able to score at all, which we were appalling at last year.
