The amount of traffic Goal's website must get from making stuff up is impressive.

man utd interested in werner thats just

I would say there is less than 1% chance we make a permanent signing in January. The new regime isn't even in yet. I would suspect we'll try and get a striker in on loan but their will be limited options, same as last year.

Toney to Chelsea makes perfect sense for all involved, hopefully we can get a proper goal scorer

 

[Reuben klang]

That's not difficult

It's a pity as you can see Sancho has a lot of ability, just a real lack of effort/discipline/application. I wouldn't blame ETH either as he's had issues at other clubs before us.

He’s been absolute garbage. I remember thinking Gareth is an idiot not playing him but turns out he was right.

Talk of Kimmich being available in Jan.

Talk of Kimmich being available in Jan.

Can't see it myself. His contact is up next year so will just be a ploy to get a bumper paydeal

Makes perfect sense for all those who don't understand FFP and how Arsenal have spent a fraction over longer period and are needing to sell to buy anyone.

Good player, bad age and would cost an absolute fortune per week and will drop off.

United bound then i imagine.

Claudio Echeverri River Plate to city a done deal according to Fabrizio. Will remain on loan until Jan 24. Hopefully works out to be as good a deal as Alvarez (and not as bad as Philips, hope he can get his career back on track as he's a top lad).

Not a very long loan then

I want to sleep with Jennifer Lawrence, doesnt mean it will happen though.

 

[Robbo]

I'd be very happy with Olise, would prefer a better source though. Looks like he has a release clause in the summer.

 

[fez]

I'm sure we could coach that verve and desire out of him in a season or two.

 

[robfosters]

Seriously, so many young randoms just pop up on the Sky transfer centre programme, do you ever get the feeling they're just putting them on there as some part of a Sky Sports graduate training scheme?

He looks decent

 

[Tombstone]

Several Premier league teams being linked with a Firmino loan apparently, if he is coming back on a loan to the Premier League he should come back to Liverpool on loan, wouldnt seem right to see Bobby in another EPL shirt

 

[HangTime]

Sancho is talent but with terrible attitude. Antony is good attitude but with below average talent.

Latter is always better if you have to have one, at least he turns up for his job.

I think it depends on a few factors, like the level you are competing at and whether the attitude is toxic.
If you are competing at the highest level, then you need the talent, someone who is below average won't be good enough, them turning up for work just costs you money because they don't get in the team. You could argue Matt Le Tissier is an example of this, Southampton were in the top division and they needed his talent to stay up, despite perhaps a slightly lazy or selfish attitude at times.
Conversely at a lower level having a luxury player with the wrong attitude might be an issue.

Then there's the toxicity element, where a player's attitude is rubbing off on the rest of the squad and undermining the club. You could possibly say CR7's second term at MU is an example of this, he undoubtedly had the talent to play at the top end of the PL, but supposedly he was a bit of a bad apple.
