I don't know how the immigration regulation works in detail, but I think it comes down to whether he may or may not be "working in the UK" straight away. Mali are currently 50th in the world ranking, Yalcouye is yet to be capped and the Swedish league is comparatively low ranked so there may be...

Fair enough. Although it's a shame we didn't get him, we have poached Amari Cozier-Duberry, Kamari Doyle and Caylon Vickers since January for nominal fees (comparatively). Seeing a player go abroad to develop is something I like to see

Yes, but what he's saying are things that happened, not things that might have happened. We can all say "If Toney started..." or "If Shaw started..." or "If he took of Kane...", but the point @Randy McNob was making was not based in theory and 20:20 hindsight. Sure, we might not have been so...

Given that we're 5th in the World Rankings, I would suspect that it's very rare, especially given that the top 4 is Brazil (last played in s00s L1-2), Argentina (last played in 2002 W1-0), Belgium (last played in the Nations League in 2020 W 2-1 L 0-2) and France (last played in the last WC SF L...

Other than Jason Steele, no-one

He's a game-changer signing in my opinion. Astonishingly tough to get over the line, unlikely to happen, pricey and up against serious interest from top clubs but if we do pull it off, it's the kind of signing that may make people sit up and take notice ahead of the next season.

Agreed. The whole "I don't know his background" bit is pure BS. Standard football manager speak for "He's a **** but he's also really good, so I'll pretend to look the other way"

I expect because they only have one phone, rather than one specific to taking pictures of football kits for the internet?

This, for me too. I never "love" our kits when they're more white than blue. I "like" this one, it's fine, but it would look far better blue and white, rather than white and blue.

Yellow shorts

Stocking up on RWs probably doesn't mean we're losing a LW

Maybe he's taking the hitherto unfilled "Mwepu" role?

Given that Varane is likely off, Maguire is in and out of favour and Martinez has had a few injuries, it actually wouldn't surprise me if they did. De Ligt and Guehi as a pairing would be very good indeed (if a touch expensive)

Leeds potentially losing Gray, Summerville, Gnonto, Rutter and Kamara is funny, but is it as funny as Palace potentially losing Olise, Eze and Guehi after 4 decent months? Tough one

Welbeck's appearances over the last 3 seasons have been 27, 37 and 37 and, barring a hamstring injury for a month in November/December, he played a part in every match from Dec 17th until the end of the season

I guess the next question is, is he the next Frank Lampard, or the next Steve Sidwell, Scott Parker, Danny Drinkwater, Ross Barkley? Here's hoping it's the latter

Why would signing a right winger mean we're selling a left winger?

Problem with the crowd sound on England games is you then get the interminable England band uninterrupted. I don't what's worse, Matterface's constant opinions on tactics or the soundtrack of every England failure since 1996...

He's slipped into the Lawrenson role ("I don't know why I'm here and I certainly don't want to be here") with absolute ease

You can "almost guarantee it"... Can you? The most high profile replacements from a commentators perspective recently have been: Matterface coming in to ITV to replace Peter Drury Peter Drury replacing Martin Tyler on Sky TNT Sports announced this year they have Darren Fletcher renewing to...
