    Liking cause we need it, not 100% cause I like Aurier. If we make it through this transfer window without a better RB than Trippier, we likely fall out of Champions League. There are too many teams with enough talent to make a run for it and sitting tight is not the way to do it. These bullshit articles all summer about Tottenham having a great summer since they only lost one player, kiss my ass.

    I think that's a bit of overreaction. Spurs made it to the CL quarters with Alan Hutton at RB

    That said, will enjoy seeing Aurier

    Rumors barelona are getting ready to offer £80m for Willian. I will fly to London to drive him to the airport if that bid is real.

    It's been one of the craziest in recent memory, just need some deadline day shenanigans to complete it. Like when Odemwinge drove all the way to QPR's training ground, as if it would help force the move :loldog:.

    So Messi's contract expires at the end of this season? This might be barcelona's biggest misstep to date. There is literally no incentive for him to sign a contract at this point. May as well play out the year, se what the highest bidder offers and if he wants to stay at Barca give them a chance to match. I imagine that without a transfer fee he could command 75-100 million euros a year for 2-3 years?

    110m? I thought it was going to be closer to 150, but maybe I'm not taking into account currency rates.

    Looks like Rennes would get around 20m of the Dembele sale, on top of the 15m when they sold him to BVB.

    Thought this had been posted but yes he did. Also a lot of the Barca players showed up to Neymar's son bday party and posted pics on Instagram, making the board look like fools. The board was super pissed. Dani Alves was also there. The relationship between the players and the board is at an all time low.

    ESPN is saying 150m Euro for Dembele which was quite a bit more recently today. I'd guess that's accurate.

    Dortmund was playing hardball and that was the original estimate. Doubt they'd budge that far.

    12m... Just absolutely ridiculous in retrospect. Rennes gets a 25% sell on fee too so they're certainly happy
