Looks like Dembele is going to Chelsea. Well that’s just great. |

In fairness to the board, for once. They know that January deals are pointless as the players take too long to adapt mid season to a new team/league. The chance of a January signing transforming the club are very minimal. It is far better to stick with what you have than bring in someone new who will only have a negative impact on the side.  |

Aubameyang going to Barca.
Free transfer but he's still going to be on huge wages, will be impossible to shift and hasn't played well for about 2 years now.
At least one other club out there is run by the same level of complete idiots as we are.

Ralf told the board he wanted a midfielder. Didnt get one. Ralf told Jesse he could leave. The board didn't let him. Whats the point of even having a manager at this club? They are a fucking joke. Rangnick should resign. Otherwise he can do one as well. Sick of it. |

Tottenham are a good example of how even if you face constraints from tight owners you can still get some good business done in January. Kulusevski and Bentancur definitely will upgrade their squad and improve their chances of making top 4.

Get this on a flag, or plane banner Par for the course with this club. What was the point in rejecting money for Lingard only to never play him? Same with Romero, Darmian, Rojo. Why was an already struggling Matic given a 3 year deal instead of a 1 year, or just allowed to leave? Why was Mata given a new 1 year deal? He never, ever plays. Was it just to give him value as we didn't want to lose him on a free? Well, it's only a 1 year deal so available on a free again this summer. So, no money made, another year of his career wasted, and wages pissed down the pan. Why was Heaton brought in this summer, and Grant given a new contract? Was Heaton the older, experienced 3rd choice most clubs have? If so, why the fuck is Grant still here? Was Heaton going to be back up as Henderson moved on? Well, Henderson's still fucking here! Why was Jones given a big whopping new contract, when his injury issues always, always, meant that that was a stupid idea. Why are we still, according to reports, trying to get Pogba to sign a new long term deal? He's rarely played that well, and almost never performed to the level the most expensive player in the world should. He doesn't want to be here, his agents a cunt. Yet instead of just getting rid we're desperate for him to stay another 4 years? And that's just a handful of the litany of shite decisions this club makes. Liverpool and City don't make any of those decisions. Not one. |

Once the Greenwood thing came out, Jesse was always going to stay, given Amad and Martial had already gone.

According to some reports this evening we're cautiously optimistic of Signing Jack Shit before the window closes.  |

I want to see some Mourinho energy from Ralf in the upcoming presser.

Best thing about this window is today being Ed's last day. Richard Arnold from tomorrow and we won't see fuck all difference. The club is in such a sad situation and I don't see a way out. This will get much worse before it gets better.

I want to see some Mourinho energy from Ralf in the upcoming presser. He should press the nuclear option. Why the hell not? You're only here short term anyway, the fans would respect the shit out of you for it, and if it jeopardizes your chance of staying on beyond the summer, so what? Why would you want to be at such a fucked club anyway. Go for it. When asked about the window and why no one signed just say "You'll need to ask other people higher up than me. I made it very clear the players we needed and the positions they play. I've sat here waiting for a month to see my recommendations acted on, the very reason I was brought here in the 1st place. And nothing. It's not hard either. Everyone else has seemed to find it simple enough to buy someone. Even Spurs. But this club would seemingly rather save a bit money than actually strive to be successful." |
