Not ideal, but he seems to want out and we want Acuna. If we can make it work financially (loan fee, wages) then it frees a place in the squad and keeps him in the spotlight for a future sale. Disappointing, finally thought we had one Saudi bound but this might work.

This bloke had it spot on…

This is a good thing but I’m not 100% sure what they mean by the lion square fan zone. Is it just the area at the front of Trinity where they put the stage?

His hand doesn’t look real though!

I actually think the lad in the black t shirt looks like he photoshopped himself into a photo of Digne rather than the other way round

Just now, GeordieVillan said:

Worst photoshop ever surely?!

Look at the hand floating in mid-air?!

Yeah I wonder if photoshopped, mainly cos I don’t buy that Digne was just chatting about his impending transfer with some random. (But re the floating hand, he’s just doing a thumbs up but sideways)

Can’t embed the tweet but the lad says Digne told him he was going to Saudi. Whilst waiting for a flight to Nice.

Sadly not bound for Riyadh, though.

Maybe he's joining the Ratcliffe Revolution instead?

 

There was a lot of assumptions and quote tweets presuming that the flight was to Saudi before the lad finally said it was to Nice!

I hope he is registered in rime for sunday we need him 

Isn’t he injured? No joke. I’m sure I read somewhere he’s got a minor injury problem.

Just got an assist.

Pen all day long.

This has gone suspiciously quiet since the Buendia injury. 

There is some diabolical shooting from both sides in this game.

I hope he’s wrong about the 30 mil being mandatory.

full back track by Fab now.

As an aside, why don’t tweets embed anymore?

Harrison also home grown which may be relevant for our ECL squad given that we’ve just lost Mings.

Tweet isn’t embedding but he’s just saying we’re waiting on a green light from Galatasaray.

I keep seeing Villa fans on Twitter talking about Laporte…are we linked with him or are they trying talk it into existence?

I think JPB deserves a start ahead of bailey next week.

Bailey was bloody awful and i defend bailey at times. But that performance was very very bad.

On pre season showing JPB deserved the start yesterday. 

I love the culture of family he’s creating but honestly, I thought the t-shirts for Emi were OTT and possibly had a negative impact on the players mindset going into the game (ie he’s a massive loss, something terrible has happened, how will we cope without him etc). Maybe, maybe not but I don’t want to see the T-shirts for Tyrone. I want them to show inner steel, be able to adapt tactically and come out fighting. Anything less than that and we might as well give up the season now.

I actually think we’ll hammer Everton. It’ll cheer us all up

They were apparently v good yesterday despite the result but here’s hoping.

Just now, tomav84 said:

to be fair you didn't need a pitchside camera. the fact that such a warrior stayed down as play continued told us everything we needed to know

Yeah absolutely. It was quickly apparent it was a bad one,  still upsetting to see.

There’s a video doing the rounds on Twitter recorded pitch side by a fan of him in pain just after his injury. I’ve been watching football 30 years and I’m genuinely shocked and heartbroken by how badly he was suffering. I’ve seen very few reactions that bad, normally the worst injuries.

Carlos or Konsa next to Pau for the next few games?   

Carlos and Konsa. Not at all convinced re Pau.

Let’s just calm down for a minute.

It’s a terrible result against a marginally better side.

But if you’re Unai, what do you do?

Well for a start I think Diego Carlos looked a bit better than Torres so maybe he will have to partner Konsa. Cash needs upgrading, should have been done already and now is essential. The main task will be picking morale up off the floor.
