Edouard

I'm pretty sure I'd be more of a threat up front than Edouard, and I'm over 60!

Wonder if the Newcastle link is being leaked by his agent to hurry Leeds and other interested parties along to get a deal done.

Did his ACL in March didn't he? Don't think he'll go anywhere this summer

Genuinely missed this news, my apologies. Explains why he's still there then 😂

Very good idea though. If I was DoF I would give serious thought to signing him now & continuing his rehab at Seagrave.

Well, a Moroccan chap I know who loves his football tells me Moroccan press are convinced Bilal will stay with us this season.

This is incredible because while I was in Paris a couple of weeks ago quite a few Moroccan’s I met were convinced he would stay as (they said) he mentioned in the Moroccan press that he “owes” us a season.  
 

However, money talks.

I was in Tesco earlier and saw some Moroccan couscous on the shelf.  Nobody had touched it.  Nobody wanted it.  I took that as a sign.

I had couscous last night. But it was overcooked so I'm assuming that's a sign that any buyers for BEK will miss leave it too long and not complete the deal

Im currently watching Anthony Bourdains 'A Cooks Tour', as of episode 7 (Portugal), he hasn't visited Morroco yet, if he visits at all......that has to be a sign surely??

I find it pretty incredible that Everton seemed to think going after Fatawu would be the cheap option.

Guess these clubs think they can unsettle the players as they're bound to be eager to jump to a PL club, but Fatawu seems like he loves playing for us, and you kind of get the feeling Bilal does as well, we were looking for him to give a farewell wave on Sunday night but nothing

Presumably they view the lack of English tax as a discount code?

Everton can do one. Spawny gits should have been dumped into the Championship years ago.

Everton are one team that dont need to worry about the English quota.

Yes, but I meant in the sense of English players usually having a higher cost

Interesting that Dorsett doesn’t list Newcastle as having interest but Percy did. I still think it CPFC who come the hardest for him if Eze goes

im actually quite concerned we even gave them a valuation, instead of rejecting it out of hand…  “ Nor for sale”.

Villa need to balance the books, pure profit, often only plays 45-60 mins.

 

Good for PSR.

If we keep hold of Fatawu and BEK we’ve played a blinder.
