Football

there are some young 'uns in the squad currently, Diaz, Foden (injured) and Zinchenko, but probably a sign of the pressure to win NOW! that Guardiola doesn't want to throw them into the fire, and would rather spend cash on proven quantity as cover.
It I was Mahrez I'd hold fast because what happens when Sane comes back from injury, where does he fit? Who makes way for him to get his games? Does he just ride the bench until a run out in the Carabao cup?

look last year's squires:

Word on the street is that Arsenal are in for Dortmund's Aubameyang. £56 million is being spoken of which would be an Arsenal club record.

The street being the front page of the BBC Sport website?

Chelsea enabled the deal by loaning Batshuayi to Dortmund.

looking forward to @WornCleat extolling the virtues of Giroud.

Chelsea have sold Miro Muheim to St Gallen. No indication of bringing anyone in to replace him.

No indication that he is coming to Chelsea. Arsenal have always said that they will not sell a player to a London rival.

BBC not a reliable source though, peddlers of fake news as explained below.

Edit: this is in response to Cleaty’s ear on the street being likened to the front page of the BBC sports section.

Thanks Ramsaye for posting some sense.

i bet jim white on talk sport is hyping to the max the slamming shut of the transfer window, the hyperboles flying left right and centre , i really don't think i could bear to listen
has any spoken to harry redknapp through the window of his executive saloon pulling out of some training ground somewhere yet, it can't shut till that happens surely

Except for the draw at League 2 Notts County on Saturday?

Amazing... #kopitebingo

I’m surprised to see anybody still taking the moral high ground about the conduct of their club when the game abandoned its morals about 30 years ago.

All managers would be chequebook managers given half a chance.

imagine what tony pullis would buy for £200mn

'Boro are a shining light beaming down on all other clubs serving to highlight their flawed morality.

Not a risk at the moment but maybe Maro Itoje

Great shout to reform football - the biggest spenders have to take on the worst managers.

Jim Smith will manager Manchester City next year.

Curbishley to United.

liverpool completed 911 passes in last nights game
premiershit record

most of those between jordan henderson and joel matip, with each of them urging the other to move the ball forward or wide, before turning and passing it from whence it had come

911 passes and 64,372 points to someone else.

Yes. But if you can't take the moral high ground on the football thread on transfer deadline day then where and when can you?

Great few pages. Keep up the good work.
Love transfer deadline day.
