Still waiting for him to fill the pot for the urine test I heard

"What from here?"
Siblings, let us not be down on it.
One total catastrophe like this...is just the beginning !

St. Andrews White

Dean Jones reporting we were after Smalling before Mawson. Pulled out because same price and wages higher.

Much as I like Smalling, Mawson is younger, cheaper on wages and perfect for our system, so no complaints here

The Intertoto might not exist anymore, but that doesn't matter. We'll still win it again.

Maybe there is someone worth signing. Imo Boaz Myhill, Jeremy Pied, Diego Reyes and Guillerme Siqueira would be ok. I really, really like Diego Reyes. Also think Boaz Myhill would be nice as a 3rd choice keeper and he could help our younger keepers develop. As for Pied and Siqueira, I think they would be decent squad players.

Myhill re-signed for West Brom today and has apparently had an absolute shocker for them in a friendly tonight against Chasetown. Only Free Agents I'd be tempted to pad out the squad by are Miguel Veloso, Florentin Pogba and Moses Odubajo (if he could get himself fit). Bernard as well, but I think he's about to sign for someone.

You don't like Diego Reyes? He is a right sided cb, Mexico international, pretty young and can cover pretty much all of the defensive positions as well as central midfield positions.

Smalling is also terrible on the ball.

Think he'd only join a team to start, unless it was a team in Europe, and after spending 15-20m on Mawson we probably couldn't guarantee that. Plus he's by all accounts had a bidding war going on for him so his wages + signing on fee would be more than what he's worth.

He may not be a starter, but he would get good amount of minutes as he ca play as cb, rb, lb, dm and even cm. Considering how our squad is still pretty thin, he is an excellent choice as he offers backup for practically six positions.

But would he be happy to be a utility player for a newly promoted side when teams like Watford, West Ham and Newcastle are supposedly after him as well, in the first two cases could match the financial package we could offer and also offer guaranteed first team football. Especially now Newcastle have got Lejeune out for ages.

That's the real question, but I just said that I would really like us to buy him.

I'd like us to sign him. Anyone of his sort of quality is welcome in my book, but in-terms of filling out the squad which was my original point Veloso, Odubajo and F. Pogba would be the only ones I'd go for. Probably wouldn't even go for Pogba because he's left-footed which I didn't realise. Maybe Wollscheid.

@jolslover

Toure, Meyer, Ben Arfa and Bernard would all be top signings imo

First three would all be wildcards in my opinion. Toure can barely run, Meyer's got attitude problems (and a very greedy agent), and Ben Arfa's either amazing or non-league standard no in between. Agree with Bernard though, but I'm 99% certain I saw he was signing for someone. Might have been Milan.

Yh true, Not sure Toure would fit into Slavisas system. Read Meyers wage demands were mad, and true just read Bernard has signed for Milan. WOuld still take a punt on Ben Arfa though, Slavisa got the best out of Mitro who we were told had similar features of roguness. Hatem was unplayable at Nice as well but couldn't break into a side with Neymar and Mbappe. Could see him ending up at West Ham or Leicester.

I would gamble with Be Arfa too. Then I would play Seri at dm with Cairney and Ben Arfa in front of him. He also fits our style of play.

wheelerdeeler

From a neutral perspective I'd like to see him at Leicester seeing as Claude Puel is seemingly the only manager who can get the best out of him. Not sure if our system is set up to accommodate a proper luxury player, which Ben Arfa is without a shadow of a doubt.

Ben Arfa? No thanks.

Aye its a controversial one. Splits opinion.

Dean Jones says he expect 2 more after Mawson

So if people could choose which 2, Who would there two be?  Tierney and Krychowiak for me (Probably not still in for Krychowiak but im a fan)

Krychowiak has already gone out on loan.
