Fifa 19 rated at 78-85, only 21 and 6ft5". That's good enough for me.

Implies again that talk of our transfer window being done is premature.
Clearly a forward, AM and RB still in the frame and what Potter has asked for.

What's your source for these three Chailey? Normally this is something you excel at.
From what I can see Berge is a DCM so, by your criteria, we're not interested in him, at the very least.

Brilliant rumour. One of the players I highlighted in my megalist in the potential transfer targets thread.

And if we can convince Trossard amid interest from top 6 clubs, who's to say we can't convince this guy

agreed and if he is mates wiith Trossard then there is a good chance here... We already have good relationship with Genk, we are a family club like them, Trossard spoke very high;y of us in the move....

And, as someone else said on here, we could always use Percy as bait.

A CM of him and Bissouma would be something exciting.

I never quite understand this, and maybe its a question for another thread. But what exactly is a "family club" ? One that lets U18's in ?

On that basis, aren't ALL football clubs family clubs - are there any examples of a football club that isn't a family club ? ???

Asking for a friend.

My guess is that if he regards Sheff Utd as not big enough, he thinks the same about Brighton. Though if there are two days to go before the transfer window closes and he’s faced with us, Sheff Utd or another season in Belgium, maybe he’ll think differently.

Well, yes. It’s a nice sounding, but completely meaningless term.

I'll hazard a guess to the Albion a family club represents:-

Patriarch - Strong, silent but steely, committed owner.
Matriarch - Always telling everyone off, but with their heart in the right place.
Home - Warm, loving, inviting with luxurious touches you don't expect.
Environment - Open welcoming and safe.
Extended family - Passionate but respectful.
History - Settled and established for over a hundred years.

= A family club.


So now lets compare that to a club rarely called a family club:-

Patriarch - Just arrived, trying to leave, might go with the family silver.
Matriarch - Sat on the sunbed all day, drinking Pina Coladas with no idea where the children are.
Home - It's 'that' house in the street.
Environment - Charred.
Extended family - Bang a drum, try and fight then run to the police crying.
History - Only moved in 10 years ago.

Some might still call them a family club, but not in the context that article implies.

You see this is what I've feared all along.

Usually its used in conjunction with a glib statement after some herberts have misbehaved and got banned. "We pride ourselves on being a family club and so condemn this behaviour" blah blah. Meaningless pap.

I'm sure I have no idea which clubs you are referring to.
