Yes, that did cross my mind. Does the arbitration panel the appeal is being made to have a habit of over-turning/reducing punishments ?

Looking at the players we have been linked with/ have signed to be honest I am under whelmed.
BR seems to have forgotten the mistakes made by his predecessors in paying an "english premium" (include players currently playing in England.)
I do know we needed to increase our squad this year.

With the money we now have from the sale of our only true world class player we need to spend on some world class players. We need to make a statement to the world that we are back where we belong and use the money to push on.
This is one of the times that less is more. less numbers of players bought but of a higher class. Look at Spurs last year who bought loads and loads of players with the bale money and in fact went backwards.

We should be going after the likes of hummels as opposed to lovern,
Benzema as opposed to bony
James Rodriguez as opposed to Jay Rodriguez

An outside chance would be modric with all the talk of Toni Kroos going to madrid and more talk of James Rodriguez going there as well.

Given the size of our squad last year and the extra games well play in CL this season less is most definitely not more. Factor in the physically demanding high energy style we play and it pretty obvious we need a lot more depth.

Would love us to get a marquee signing but we absolutely need a few of the underwhelming ones too.

Definitely agree with this. Don't mind the Lambert & Can deals. Relatively low fees & low risk, adds to squad depth. Lallana seems to be what BR wanted so I hope it works out, but the fee is in the territory that you start to think, if we added another £10m to that we'd get an established world class player. Same now with Markovic. Of course, he could turn out to be great, but it's a risk and alot of money to be spending on potential. Same with Origi.

Would prefer if we went for the Hummels, Vidal, Reus & Benzema standard of player and, if we can't do those deals, start working our way down. But some of the potential fees/release clauses being mentioned for those players are similar or only slightly more than players we are currently targeting (e.g. Hummels & Lovren, Benzema & Bony - as pointed out above). If Reus' release clause is €35m and we can agree personal terms we should be definitely looking to do a deal there - that's only about £8m more than Markovic.

Khedira to Arsenal being touted again by some of the journos. If we aren't in for him then I dont know what I will do but I won't be best pleased.

Would be an ideal signing for us.

About 6 years too late, but that's a great signing for Arsenal if they manage to get a player of Khedira's ilk.

Rumour is we're to bid 45 million for Reus.

Fantastic signing if true

Some papers ran with a story over the weekend that Reus wouldnt go to united because he wanted champions league football, if true we do have a chance of landing him even if its a slim chance.

They even managed to fit Arda Turan into that one.

Fair play.

That article also says Vidal to UTD is close.

I'll be as delighted as anyone if we do sign him. I'm fairly sure I mentioned him on here when he was with Mönchengladbach, even.

But I can't see it happening.

This. We've a wad of cash to spend. Wave it in front of some club for a truly great player and see what happens. If we're told to **** off then so be it, at least we tried.

Shame we built that pesky Emirates stadium. We could have bought all the players

Ah jesus I can't wait for the season to start. World Cup withdrawals already!

I HATE pre-season games but I can see myself streaming as many as I can this summer. Cannot wait.

Literally nothing to do with what was posted.

Jaysus, I can still post here!

We wouldn't have a hope of landing Reus I'd say, but I wouldn't object to us at least enquiring about him. Griezmann would be a superb (and more realistic) alternative. He's going to be a super player.

Liverpool baffled by reports linking them with Marco Reus and insist they've shown no interest in him despite suggestions to the contrary.

Shock and ****ing awe, truly. Now sign Griezmann, Manolas, Moreno and Moses at least, and be done with it.
