Speculation The hysterical and annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded spring/summer 2019 rumours thread.

[Mike - True Blue Tinter]

Unless we invest every single penny (and more) in new players, including a quality CB, then this deal is ****ing ludicrous

Weaken our starting eleven
Strengthen a direct rival in a position where they are total wank

Pocket a load of cash for no actual point whatsoever

Totally shit idea in every possible way

We have good defenders. Let's spend the money on someone who can score goals.

This is the Kevin Keegan who slipped up for the title because Newcastle went for goals rather than holding tight?

It’s not wrong but Klopp also said “goals win football games, clean sheets win leagues”(sic)

This is the Jurgen Klopp whose team finished 2nd last season?

The very same, same one that won the Bundesliga against the odds, too.

The sack ?

Yes and a big shiny medal to take with him.

Nope. Only in the text. Not in the bulletpoints

Exclusive: Sheffield United plot raid to sign Leicester City 24-yr-old - Football Insider

EXCLUSIVE By Pete O’Rourke Sheffield United are plotting a raid to sign Leicester City ace Daniel Amartey, Football Insider can reveal. Blades boss Chris Wilder...

[BlueNotes]

"raid"??

They pick up the phone, dial a number and say "please Mr Top, can we buy that versatile Mr Amartey please?" They will then receive a reply which may or may not include a valuation. "Raid" my arse (no, that's most definitely not an invitation)

With the signing of Justin, along with the amount of players we have in central midfield, there’s no place for Amartey in our plans. This move makes sense for all parties.

Love it when football clubs plot a raid on an ace.

Although in the case of Amartey it’s more ‘player who isn’t good enough for one club might end up at an inferior club in a deal that will suit all parties’.

Yeah I bumped into Sean Bean in Loughborough this morning and he said the same.


He also reckons we’re in for retired Dutch midfielder Aron Winter.
