Rumour Jamie Day joining a local league 1 team as ass manager.
can we retire this abbreviation right this second
Someone I know made it to associate partner at the accounting firm EY in some sort of banking context and was quite proud of it until all his banking mates referred to his promotion as him making ass partner.
Three of JFC, Reeves, and one more (Byrne, Potts) would be very good business. Obviously, trust nothing that SSN says.
The one thing we might be missing in the midfielders we've been linked with (with the exception of Carruthers) is a box-to-box player and/or one capable of consistently breaking up play. In a 4-2-3-1 it's good to have a holding player, box-to-box player, and then the further forward in the triangle is the 10. I'm not sure that JFC fits into the btb role, he can play as a deep lying creator or a #10 from what I've seen. I haven't seen enough of Potts. I fear that a double 6 of JFC and Crofts, or perhaps JFC and Ulvestad isn't quite athletic/mobile enough, and none of the three are a true defensive midfield capable of consistently breaking up play. I hope this is making sense.
I'll try it this way, if JFC or Crofts is going to be the holding player, then we need a player with a good engine alongside them to help get up and back and break up play. Perhaps Konsa and/or Ulvestad are the answer there. Possibly Aribo as well...haven't seen enough of him to know if he's capable of playing deeper in midfield.
Surely with all this money coming in we will sign a showstopper striker, and I don't mean Carlton Cole (who is available on a free). Come on Rolly, surprise us all.

EVERTON TRANSFER LATEST
Our man in the North West, Ben Ransom, has the latest on Everton’s proposed moves for Ademola Lookman, Memphis Day and Morgan Schneiderlin…
"Lookman travelled up for a medical yesterday - we understand that's now done and that personal terms aren't an issue. The fee being talked about is £10m though it's my understanding it will be a bit less than that. However, it's clearly a statement of intent from Everton, who we expect to be very busy this month.
"They're also being linked with Memphis Depay. Everton are interested in a loan but we understand Manchester United would prefer a permanent transfer. Nice are also tracking Depay; they're keen on a loan deal with an option to buy in the summer so watch this space.
"Everton's No 1 target remains Morgan Schneiderlin. It seems at this stage Everton is his most likely destination, even though United are holding out for closer to the £24m they paid for him."
Its straightforward really. We just need to ensure that, one day, we will be able, with the youth coming through, to field an eleven all with hyphenated surnames.
We said confirmation was due shortly and here it is - Charlton's Ademola Lookman joining Everton. We understand the fee is an initial £7.5m with add-ons that could take it nearer to the £10m mark."
Sky said 7 and a half million initially up to 10 with clauses.
close to the £8m rising to £10m rumour that was going around on Monday.
c'mon, on Monday KM categorically said to us that no fee had been agreed with any club for any of our players. Are you suggesting she was lying? Shame on you.

Curious about what others think.
Konsa yes, aribo maybe.
