Spurs down 0-2 but it’s been fun to watch. Such a drastic difference in style of play.

 

£30 million please and thank you

 

We could have 5+ goals but everyone sucks at finishing lol

 

Apparently the shirt is aimed at being something you might wear at a festival, but fuck me it’s horrible.

Mad that while we were shit, we had great kits. Then the moment we get good, Adidas drop this.

If we win anything in it, it’ll become iconic tbf.

 

Udogie!

Just like that it’s 2-2

 

Spurs attack looks actually threatening and it’s only been one preseason game. Not trying to get too excited but man, is it refreshing to watch.

This game is also a clear example of how badly we need new defenders.

 

Wow! 100% expected him to leave on a free.

 

Buy some CBs please

 

Seems like this one will get done in the next couple of weeks. We’ve been strongly linked with Amrabat and Disasi as back up CDM and CB options, but those are dependent on selling Fred/McTominay/Telles/Bailly/Maguire/Henderson.

 

Can’t wait to sign him with bid #3

 

Two weeks of negotiating to save 2.5 million and another week and a half sorting out visas and contract and medical so that he’ll crucial preseason experience.

 

It looks like a training bib ffs. Adidas have been on such a good run as well .

I still prefer it to those godawful Puma template text kits though.

 

Yeah Adidas produce some stinkers from time to time, but I generally prefer their stinkers to the Nike and Puma templates.

 

that’s his second long term injury suffered in pre-season.

 

When will one of the Saudi clubs take Mason Greenwood and Benjamin Mendy out for a spin?

 

Must come back too eager or something I reckon.

 

Only took 45 minutes for me to be convinced that Udogie is a fantasy bargain at 4.5m

 

I've looked at him but doesn't he run the risk of being rotated?

 

Maybe. I don't see why he wouldn't be the main starter though. It kinda depends on who leaves. I'd imagine Reguilon will be sold. Sessegnon is out (again) for a couple months but even when healthy wouldn't be a threat to take Udogie's spot. And then there's Davies who is a nice rotational player but not a starter imo. And there's been some talk of him leaving as well, but I'd rather keep Davies for the depth.

So the job is definitely there for Udogie to claim.

 

On paper, we're definitely bloated at LB but we really only have one good player there lol

 

Any word on how Ciry are handling Mendy moving forward? United have been seemingly undergoing an internal investigation/review of the Greenwood situation since the case was dropped like 6 months ago. Word has been that he’s likely to take a loan move in Italy?

 

He is not on contract anymore with City and don't foresee that changing moving forward.

 

Signing of the summer boys and gals!!
