And, we’re off.......2018/2019

In regards Rice , he looks a decent player , possibly overhyped a touch which had happened a lot at West Ham over the years and the players ends up just being a bog standard decent Prem player. Any talk of £70mil plus is madness for a player who has players 40/50 so far - English players certainly get overhyped - does he stand out that much ? Don’t see it so far.

Doesn’t he have full caps for Ireland now? So pretty much can’t chnage mind. Or were they only in friendlies?

Also, with the greatest respect to him and Milner. I don’t think either would get bought for 70m. I accept Milner has done tremendously at Liverpool, but the affection for him grew after steady shows. No fans would be heralding a 70m signing who’s main asset is being dependable.....

Not full caps no, only friendly

I don’t think he will fetch 70 million, unless the transfers go even more mental.

However he has been compared to stones at a similar age who fetched 50 million. If someone was looking for a ball playing centre half then he could prob command about the same as a prospect. I think he will end up leaving us for a champions league team as I don’t see us in the champions league anytime soon

I, for one who doesn't support WHU, believe he's going to be a real player.
I'd have no problem with United investing many millions in buying this young lad, he'll be a quality player, I'm sure of that.
I just hope he decides that his international future is with England.

If you get Poch then that could be the sort of signing you make. I think January could be quiet for you unless the next manager has a say.

 

[PhilTheFragger]

Yep, as Ive had it for 30 odd years.

90% of people say it from a different stand, keyboard, gang - Ive only ever had it said to me 0nce in person, funnily enough by a United fan in Berlin who didnt know I was a scouser.

3 minutes later he did.

So

So Pete,
How come it took so long?😂😂

That’s fair, I think Stones was and still is overpriced, decent eniugh paying city’s ways but still liable to a mistake.

I just checked on the caps for rice. I thought he’d played in a qualifier. My mistake.

43 games in the premier league before the age of 20 is good tho.

I truly believe that because our owners have invested badly before last summer that we looked to the acamedy again and it benefited rice who has taken his chance

Deserves his new deal

I’ll be slightly disappointed if he does change countries as I don’t agree with the system. He pulled on the colours for Ireland you can’t just change because your first choice come calling

Giving him a new deal is a smart move and he is a good player who no doubt deserves a raise but if he is that good then a CL club will come calling , he has a big 18 months ahead of him

They will but as my father always taught me a contract only means you can command more money when someone wants to buy .

I’m offended on behalf of snow people 😡

 

[Papas1982]

I feel that a new “corn”flake rule should be introduced as the Snows are getting more attention than us.

 

[Dan2501]

Starting to see why Yerry Mina didn't make it at Barca. Not been a convincing performance today at all. Too slow to play as a wide centre half, gives the ball away far too often and in dangerous areas, is out-paced and in the wrong position too often and gives away needless fouls when he's caught out.

And we're losing 1-0. Brilliant. Been rubbish today so far. Gylfi needs to start, not convinced by this 3 ATB system if it means Gylfi has to miss out.

But then what about the “whiny little ball bags”?

Shall we stick with Snowflakes until the new year at least?
