It is annoying how difficult it can be to blood youngster but bear in mind, it’s a result of the fact that we have been competing in the top 6 at worst for a long time now. Cream always rises to the top. People may look a little enviously at Arsenal bringing some through just now, but remember that’s at least part and parcel of the fact that their squad was a mess and poor for a few years that saw them have two 8th place finishes in a row where they were afforded the room to bring in younger people. Whilst their fans went mental at the same time of course. Can your imagine how we’d be if we’d finished 8th two years running
But they somehow grabbed 4 FA cups in the last 8 years (IIRC).

One more than we got in 41 years

CANCELLATION REQUESTS

PL getting very pedantic and difficult in a good way with all clubs. Burnley is genuine. It is believed clubs are beginning to take the piss ?
Good I have a ticket for Sunday and will go full BF if it does get canned

Welcome Andy Carroll.
Takes me back to the Rasiak in January days as our back-up striker signing :ROFLMAO:
I'm sure whoever these signings could be they will hopefully be more useful :)
Reading just lost 7-0 to Fulham so hopefully we are not targeting any defensive players of theirs ;)

I'm guessing these could be youngsters as part of the Hitchen side project.

Reading & Cardiff ?
Incomings possibly ?

Good to see us looking at players in the lower divisions. It might not be the flash signings @Aphex wants but it’s a good source of HG talent. Seems to be working for Palace with regards to Eze and Olise. Gelhardt at Leeds looks like he has potential to be a decent player as well.

Yep i agree. Olise in particular looks to be a real find.

And not sure why we've not done this before by going into the lower division to see if we can find some talent. Much in the same way that Liverpool did with their wing backs.

Meant Reading & Forest ?

Trying for the names, but told others involved and not cast iron. Sorry if I misled. Genuine information.

I wouldn’t bank on them though-Hope you understand

Have to believe this is true on the basis that the goons would rather play us now than next month when we will have potentially new signings also Son, Romero and Dier back too.
Yeah but they are missing all their creative players and basically their whole midfield.. so pretty much like us for 2 years.

Wish I could remember his name but iirc Forrest had that one player who was very good against arse. I remember reading praises for him on Twitter.

edit: It was Spence as others have stated

Is it Forest because they beat our noisy neighbours? We could Grab(ban) a bargain…;)
