If you look his at his posts you could be forgiven for thinking that, because he tends to delete most of the incorrect ones :laugh:
Some of these kids on Twitter - honestly - That lion said yesterday he signed 2 weeks ago as he reported first 🤣 this other kiddy says he told his mate he’d signed and showed him this pic - his mate said it was photoshopped (which is obvs is) and then he tells this lion kid his mate hates not knowing the info first - I worry for this generation 🤦🏻‍♂️

Until he actually plays in the stripes and I can see whether he’s the real deal or just another Percy Tau, then I’m really not going to get too excited by this transfer.

I’m just concerned that RDZ and TB are together on strategy going forward.

I think RDZ should stick to coaching the players he’s been given, his one “must have this one” player albeit on a free, has not impressed so far in an injury ravaged season :smile:

As @Justice suggests RDZ can certainly help influence players to come here, once the recruitment team have found them. Although he has not even spoken to Barco yet apparently.

This "Lion kid" is an old man, and a pretty unpleasant one at that! He really should know better but I guess attention speakers never change!

13 days left of the window. Plenty of time to get this announced.
Absolutely.

There's no DRAMA in announcing now.

We need a frantic flurry of fax machines throughout the evening of February 1st, accompanied by a police escort in and out of a gridlocked A23, so Valentin can sprint into the Amex boardroom to breathlessly scrawl on a piece of paper that PBOBE thrusts into his hands at 22:59:50.

liked this ("liked" as in enjoyed, as opposed to the social media "like"'d):

He says he plays in midfield and then compares his stats to other left backs. He's in the 99th PERCENTILE for chances created. Yeah no shit, because he's being compared to full backs and there's about 19 of them in the league.

point taken, however .... pedant mode = Argentina Primera league has 26 teams (28 next year) * left back + right back = 52 + subs, so probably another 50 ish.
