DMAA

Nothing surer. Absolute disgrace. As soon as the 7 minutes went up on the board.

Item just lacks that natural goalscorers touch unfortunately. Glad Roofe is on now.

McLaughlin has been hard done by this season. Deserves a run in the team. Need to get the ball up the park quicker in this half.

It’s not going to make things any easier! Glad we have Aribo back, his quality often shows in poor conditions.

As we all predicted. It’s ridiculous.

Yeh I thought it would happen but knocking back £300k probably killed the thing dead even before Halkett’s injury which is probably the final nail in the coffin.

Any talk of a bosman for McAtee is a non-starter. These clubs always tie players like that down.

I just watched the press conference and Gio was asked directly about McAtee and I think there’s something in it! He seemed caught off guard to be asked directly and seemed to me to be trying to figure out a way to neither confirm nor deny. I think he’d be a very good addition.

This is the last one I’ll post as I’m already cluttering the thread a bit, but this is against Blackburn U23s and shows his abilities better (3 assists and a goal here). For context, Blackburn finished 4th out of 13 in the U23s league and Man Utd finished 8th so they aren’t a bad team.

This is another of those all touches video but for the senior team at a much higher level. A lot not coming off for him here tbh, but a couple of good contributions too.

All Diallo’s touches against Leeds U23s earlier this season. I like these videos because they give a much better view of the player than the highlights videos do. He gets 2 goals and assist here, so involved in all 3 goals. Like most players in that position he has a tendency to pass inside and back the way quite a lot which can be frustrating when you just want to see him put on the after burners all the time (which isn’t possible anyway). He scorers a sublime goal here. For whatever reason he has only been in two U23 squads this season. No idea what he’s been doing all season?

There’s truth in that but McAtee is very highly rated and looks excellent. I’m not sure what people are expecting to be honest, we aren’t splashing the cash in this window. We already have strong options with Arfield, Aribo and Jack returning and could just do with another attack minded midfield option for balance and McAtee appears to be that. If there’s any truth in the rumour of course.

Looks like more players are coming. This guy appears to have had info from Romano recently which is quite surprising.

I’ve given it to Lowry because of the quality of chances he created, he could easily have been walking away with a few assists. Sakala had a major influence and was deserving of the award though, despite being a bit wasteful. And Arfield could get it for that goal alone, a moment of pure magic that won the game.

Sometimes they do. This won't be the first time this one has more or less confirmed it before it's become public knowledge. If it's true Diallo has been at the training centre today, all you need is someone you know who works there to ask.

Well for the first time, defences will have two genuine threats on both our wings to worry about. I expect it will help Kent.

FF admin Empire more or less confirming it by the way, or at least that he has info that it’s true too. I’ll be absolutely delighted when this gets announced.

No he wasn’t. They’ve been working on a loan move for him, loads of interest in the Championship and he was close to joining Birmingham. I think it would take a decent loan fee for us to get him.

Yeh, sometimes they are just well worth it.

If the Diallo rumour is true we could have a better player than Olsen on our hands for a reasonable loan fee, rather than splashing the cash on a permanent signing not knowing if we are going to have UCL money coming in.

He’s apparently at the training centre right now. Which would be how it’s leaked out.

Apparently up to a million. Huddersfield have a significant sell-on.

I'm looking forward to seeing the Ivory Coast flags around Ibrox...........😂

A rumour! Someone on FF has said we are signing Amad Diallo from Man Utd (it would be a loan). I know nothing about him but he's supposedly very highly rated and he looks like exactly what we need. Very excited by this one. Only 19.

He's not playing right back. Apparently they play wing backs but transfermarkt has him as right mid/right wing and the stats I saw were very much those of an attacking player with plenty opportunities in the final third. I'm not against his signing because he clearly has potential, but I'm not convinced there aren't better options out there. Bologna drive a hard bargain and his wages will be high too.
