Yeah unfortunately you just have to take the bad with the good. 

 

He's very credible and very accurate but unfortunately his business model relies on engagement and quantity so it's in his interest to make about a thousand tweets about the same transfer. 

 

If I could be bothered being this pedantic, I'd actually make a distinction in the tier list between Fab saying we've actually bid and Fab just saying we're interested. 

 

I 100% believe we're bidding for Hlozek if that's what he says. But I also think he's guilty of chucking in the usual Leicester, Everton and West Ham "are interested" just to bait engagement because we're big enough clubs in terms of social media profile and it's vaguely believable. 

 

I bet we're not really interested in most of these players and I don't consider him S tier in those sorts of rumours.

I also think he knows when it's right to just chuck names in. There's a reason he's the biggest football journalist in the world these days. He's a clever bloke when it comes to social media.

It's Friday midday for a Saturday game, but not sure if it's the same for any game Sat-Mon.

I believe it is because it is done for the match round rather than the specific fixture itself, could be wrong.

German friend says he is the opposite of consistency but has a magic shot, and a few wonder goals in him.

Will he be the first German in the PL since Bert Trautmann?

There is so much wrong with that question

I mean, he averages 15 minutes every other game. It's almost impossible to achieve consistent performances over inconsistent playing time.

Is there parallels with a young Belgium lad who has gone off the boil at Monaco? After arriving on scene with huge expectations. That lad turned out alright - until he went off the boil again!!! Hope this lad comes with a mindset to kickstart his career again. As appears to have the talent.

I think that's correct.

 

Despite Trautmann breaking his neck in 17 places and the fact that he died in 2013, I'd still pick him ahead of Ward.

mind you I would pick my ex-wife to play in goal instead of that fvcking excuse of a goalie and she is 5'2" with a hunchback 

[em9999]

I would choose playing with with no goalkeeper than selecting ward

It's comments like these that make me hope the players read this forum.

Is this a new player from the Bundesliga that we’ve been linked with or something?
