Yeah as marky mentioned the priemum on English players is crazy. I think the bale deal is a good one and will be good to see him playing.

warnock tests positive for covid

£20m for the half season he isn't injured. But if he's fit for the half of the season when Kane's injured, it might just work for them.

and still Kane will bang in 20+ goals a season. Not bad considering his injury record.

Four 3. 3 with son, kane. Bale up top. What am I thinking Jose would never go so crazy, woukd he

i would like to see Bale in the Premier League again. big fan of long shots deflecting off the first defender into the back of the net. for that reason might as well get Robben back too.

I think Bale will be ace!
That's a pricey loan though innit? Spurs will be paying his wages as well, that must be a lot of financial pressure to do well this season.

Give Lamps a game too, that was his fave trick...

Be harking back to 1st Gen Chelsea with Duff and Robben causing chaos from the wings!

1st Gen Chelsea

FFS.

Exactly that was a cracking team!
. I know you meant Jose 1st time at Chelsea, but 1st gen.... 😔
when he 1st arrived that swift attacking with 2 wingers was good.

Noted (hangs head in shame).

I meant first two season's of Mourinho's Chelsea but caffeine made me write like a tool.

In reality, I'm a former Hereford United supporting adult.

This exactly - increased advertising exposure could be a few million just on the back of it too . He's certainly not 'the missing piece of the jigsaw' but I'd say it's outstanding business

come on you bulls

I thought we were essentially (only) covering half his wages which would be about £20m for the season

Bale will be good for spurs but this time comes with a lot of baggage. How Spurs go from furlough to Bale in 5 months is beyond me .

More a case of the missing jigsaw. Why are people talking about Dele moving on? is that linked to Bale?

I think so plus the fact that Dele doesn't really fit in a Mourinho team/style IMO rather needing to at his best as part of an attacking team rather than an attacking player within a Mourinho team

Leeds gonna Leeds.

Thiago Alcântara is a good piece of business if you ask me. Can’t believe no other teams pushed for him at that price.

It took a while to sort out the deal as Thiago (knee) took a long time looking round the treatment room at Anfield.

Byern at it again another 8!!!!
Sane slotting in nicely.

Dumb question time. How are Arsenal above Chelsea in the UEFA club coefficient rankings?

£41m for Jota as a backup player. Liverpool are building a strong squad. Quite possibly going to win the league by an even greater margin as last season.

Can’t see them getting much more then chump change for Origi but they’ll surprise me on that one as well probably.

Wolves strategy starting to become clearer now, essentially the Spurs/West Ham of yesteryear.
