I am still trying to imagine where Griezmann fill it insid all this

I'm still intrigued that you're so convinced on what's happening 12 months down the line when a whole host of clubs will doubtless be after him.

Not least one in Catalonia who'll be needing a massive status symbol signing after losing one this summer.

Think he may be referring to the rumours today saying Griezmann has a change of heart and wants to move now, despite the ban.

Just treating it as rubbish like all rumours though.

There are 3 phases to Phil jones

First, he gets injured
Second, he gets back and plays awfully initially but as he gets a string of games, he starts to play well consistently
3rd, he gets injured

Saw a great interview with him post game on NBC questioning just why in the World Chelsea let Mata go to a rival when he's still got so much to offer.

I hope Alc wasn't watching .....

I'd bet on it happening.He was gonna come this season, but stayed because he was loyal to his club.He'll be loyal emough to his agreement to come next year, you'll see.Nice to remember there still exist players like him who'd stay loyal to their club rather than leave the club in a lurch like Neymar did or like Coutinho, Dembele or VVD could do

P.S: Screenshot this if you wamt to laugh at me later

Highly doubt he'd move anywhere in Spain, he has a lot of loyality to Atletico, as shown for staying one extra season to help them out after their transfer ban.

Sell Phil. Buy Greizmann! .

That would actually be rather funny to see the fume from some. .

Just to think will have Shaw and Young back in a couple of weeks

I think Shaw will thrive in this system, with more dynamism in it

Both must be close. Both been in full training just over a week and both were playing in a six aside game with the subs afterwards. Shaw will be a huge plus!!

If he's loyal to his club, why would he be leaving next year? .

Loyalty is a thing of the past in football outside of the very rare occurrences of a local lad coming through and sticking with a club. Most every player now has one or two big moves mapped out in their career to maximise potential. Prime example being talked about today. Martial. He's had one. He'll more than likely look for another at some stage. They're all mercenaries now.

Staying a year and then doing one wouldn't really make Greizmann any less of a mercenary than anyone else today.

That's the modern game.

Definitely, especially with the balance Matic is bringing. In a 4-3-3 with Valencia and Shaw bombing forward, Matic and Herrera protecting/covering, Pogba joining in with the front 3 more (Martial/Rashford+Lukaku+Mkhitaryan/Mata) it's frightening.

Matic brings tactical flexibility.

Adam Crafton tweeted earlier that Mou wants a FB and LW. To complete his team. Have to agree.

Depends what type of winger. If it's one that offers natural width (doesn't want to come inside constantly) and fits Mou's needs, I'd be open to that. But if it's just another wide forward, then we're more than covered. Do think we need a RB now after TFM, but would've been open to a LB at the start of the window too tbh. Really hope Shaw gets some luck this season.

 

[Legend Incredible]

Anywhere in the attacking positions Also thought Mata was very good today considering an interrupted pre season.

His first touch should be criminal

Still think we will end up with Perisic late on. Especially now Inter are signing a few players. ParisUtd still adament about Aurier if he can get a wp

It does because it gives atleti time to replace him

Just finished watching Mourinho presser. Talking about Lindelöf. Said he left him out as he's needs time just the same as when he signed Carvalho for Chelsea. It was difficult for him and will be same for Lindelöf. Sometimes will be in and out the squad but he has no doubts that he will be a fantastic CB like Carvalho. For Utd. Also read a few places that Mourinho said in one of his interviews after the match that more signings are likely.​
