I wasn’t old enough to have watched them but I’ve always been under the impression Elliott was the better player between him and Walsh

Is there a good highlights vid of him anywhere? I haven’t seen one

26 Quilmes and a Stihl chainsaw

That's owned by King Power Holdings and was bought from a pension fund so not a direct investment into the club.

Looking back, cold approaching somebody and saying "Are you [Foxestalk username]?" is a bit unhinged

I met Lako at Roma away, I know what he looks like but I don't know his name - if I bump into him at some point I'll let him know we all owe him a pint

Wrexham?

Maurice this number 10 Jordan Ayeuseless is the worstest forward I have ever seen

Stolarcyzk Ricardo Okoli Nelson (by the the end of the season) Thomas Skipp James Monga (by the end of the season) Ramsey Fatawu Carranza

You need drinkers to sustain pubs midweek beyond the weekends. Demographically Leicester can’t do that. Fewer drinkers, exorbitant costs through NMW, NI and business rate increases plus ballooning energy costs - it’s nightmarish for pubs

We addressed the 3 areas we most needed players. James I think is an absolutely excellent signing, exactly what we needed and if £5m is the purchase option - bargain. Carranza, even if he ticks over at 1 in 3 it’s a big improvement on Ayew. Ramsey, if he has a full season playing like he has in his short loan spells then we’ll go up. Outgoings - we did well to get as much for Justin and McAteer, few other decent sales but we didn’t clear the decks well enough. 7/10.

What’s the future fee, £5m? I’d be happy with paying close to double that tbh.

Happy Birthday to former fox Fernando Pasquinelli 🎉

Looks beautiful but it can still be boring. Lots of Italian towns and cities have very little in the way of leisure amenities

Didn't we loan out Perez when he had 6 months left?

Who could have guessed it would pan out like this

He was £23m, significant but not a particularly noteworthy fee in the context of the modern PL. We didn't spend more than Akinbiyi's fee until we bought Mills or potentially even Ulloa. Akinbiyi ended up playing for Colwyn Bay!

Akinbiyi scored 13 goals in 67 games and inflation adjusted (by transfers, not real terms) costed about £15m. Daka has 23 goals and 15 assists in 63 starts (126 total - mostly sub appearances) and cost about £23m. It's not like he's ever been unprofessional or been totally shit from the outset, it's not worked and his career here has tailed off after a total loss of confidence. Most of it has been the club's doing tbh.

They must have a torrent of hair flooding their communes without a billion barbers too

Is Wasserman's niche dogshit footballers or something? Unique Sports Group at least seem to have decent players, I'd rather leverage these.

There are lots of crap Italian towns, not saying Cremona is or not - but even dumps in Britain often have a bit more going on

Really excited by this. A dynamic box to box player - we haven't had one for years. By the time KDH had excelled he was much more of an attacking 8 and the defensive side of his game sort of withered. C. £5m will look a snip at the end of the season.

Should have been a Championship loan, he'd shown enough for a crap Cardiff team. However if he goes and has 25+ goal contribution season in L1 (he has the talent) then it'll be worth it.

I wasn't comparing them as players, I was saying his goals scaled. He score 8 in 15 nineties, 0.53 per 90 - and then scored 12 in 13.9 ninety in the PL. Carranza scored 37 in 78.4 nineties, 0.47 per ninety. Cucho Hernandez and Ricardo Pepi both have pretty decent track records after moving to Europe after MLS careers - it's a far better league than it was.
