Caicedo's Beerschot are rock bottom of the Belgian league, with a dismal TWO points from 10 games.

Nailed on, tbh. The palace pact with the devil paying off, yet again.

Easy to say, when I'm not the one underwriting the losses, but I'd far rather he walked away for nothing in July 2023, than for a derisory figure (anything under £20m certainly) at the end of this season. A £20m windfall will not grow the club in any way. One further season of Bissouma in the...

He doesn't just LOOK older, though. He PLAYS older. Just doesn't have the mobility to impact the game in the way a player like Bissouma can.

Chelsea are well served with Kante, Jorginho and Kovacic, but all of the other top sides are short in that area. United have the particularly average United trio you list. Liverpool have an aging Fabinho, the limited Henderson and Tiago, who for whatever reason hasn't worked out. City have...

We would be lucky if it is just that, I think. Actual AFCON dates are 9th January to 6th March. Mali have Mauritania in the group and 3 of the 4 qualify, so chances are they'll be there for at least one knock out game - taking them up until at least 26th January. Last time I think they had to...

It is interesting. You don't actually KNOW that was the case, though. It is very widely rumoured that Liverpool (and Arsenal), and according to some reports, Real Madrid, have shown an interest. It is not at all unlikely that clubs made informal approaches to sound us out, regards availability...

The other slightly worrying thing from Biss' interview, was that he brought up his hopes of playing and winning things, with his country. He hasn't played for Mali for a while (some kind of falling out, I think) and we'd really rather he doesn't seek to rebuild that relationship in the next few...

I think you are kidding yourself, either about the Albion's ultimate potential, or about just how good Yves Bissouma is. With astute signings, and incremental improvements, the Albion could, one day challenge for a Europa League spot. Maybe reach a cup final. those would be fantastic...

If a super-club want him - and they absolutely should, then they will pay what they need, to secure his services. that's not to say they wouldn't love to get him for £20m, but if they want him and they need to pay £50m, then they'll pay £50m. Manchester City paid £63m for Rodri, who was less...

Bissouma's interview yesterday was for me ABSOLUTE confirmation that he will leave next summer. No Albion fan should be bitter abut it - the guy is too good to be playing in the bottom half of the PL, and we are lucky that we get to enjoy him for one more season, when he could have agitated for...

Woah Deep, man.

Even Percy Tau got one.

Only if we're going with just two keepers.
