'Even allowing for inflation, this thread is not worth 198 Terry Francises' - EPL 2017-18

don't get me wrong, I am v fond of wagner's huddersfield and am hoping for full blown mou meltdown but this feels like an appropriate amount of pessimism

we are getting linked with some shite Newc Utd dud, whilst they are apparently about to sign one of our primary targets, the Belgium winger Limbombe. Fuck off Newsnow, gonna stop clicking on you!

spurs for 8th

Limbombe is such perfect normative deteminism for a winger.

Apparently United are fining Martial £180k in wages for going AWOL on the US tour. Guess that's probably it for him.

jesus christ

Wasn't he 'AWOL' because he became a dad? Harsh imo.

awpl

horrifying rumours about us signing Smalling this morning, local journo says no but this is the kind of thing that gives you sleepless nights pre-season

yeah lots of rumours about smalling to wolves, not really that bothered about seeing the back of him tbh. also rojo to everton, which i'd genuinely be sad about

everton look terrible. enjoyed watching jagielka bounce off blackburn's prize beefboy dack in their friendly but that defence looks disgraceful

Portugal in 7th?

This is backwards. In terms of our current line-up of defenders, Smalling is the only one who's consistently fit and relatively reliable. He's horrific on the ball but he's actually a decent defender

Rojo's had less than half a dozen good performances for Utd

re: Martial

He's apparently being fined for not reporting back to training in Carrington rather than rejoining the tour

everton look terrible

We also got murdered by Rennes. We may yet finish pre-season with -ve goal diff.

we don't need a defender who's horrific on the ball as long as Danny Batth is still with us

sorry, os lobos in 7th

ok the decline starts here https://www.expressandstar.com/news/local-hubs/wolverhampton/2018/08/01/wolves-sued-by-man-who-says-he-designed-wolf-logo-in-the-60s/

btw it's August 1 somebody start a new thread ffs

Liverpool have 2nd sewn up 2018/19
