Maybe I should have gone, had a whole stand to myself.

So who’s the next young Xabi Alonso/Michael Carrick type player i can keep tabs on in the hope united buy him?

It’s Joshua Kimmich but he’s going nowhere, Ruben Neves maybe.

Julian Weigl, no?

Aye, g’wan then.

He looks a player innit. A football player in fact

To be fair I only really posted it due to twentynine’s post.

There were only 7,000 at Palace v Bolton, of which 1,500 or so were Bolton fans. I didn’t go as it was £18 a ticket and after the freezing evening watching us lose to Swansea, I just couldn’t face it.

is Henri Lansbury any good

briefly for Forest but ultimately nah

Weigl, but I reckon Jose will go for a more combative DCM to replace Carrick.

Veratti seems to be angling for a move. Not sure if he’d work there in the Premiership though.

Fabinho keeps getting linked too. Not seen much of him but he seems to be very highly rated.

Which Fabinho?

Monaco feller.

The right wing-back? Aye, he’s good. Might be with Mendes as well, directly or indirectly, so Big Red would have first dibs.

Weigl’s just signed a new deal and will stay in Germany for at least another 18 months. Valued at around €50m already by his club, which in one sense seems daft, but comparable to other deals recently maybe not.

He plays both right-back and central midfield doesn’t he?
