@Statford_Bridge How do you rate him vs Trevoh?

[Peter Duvall @Peter_Duvall]

@cricollie Our best bowler isn't playing

[Peter Duvall @Peter_Duvall]

@ChelseaEspanol @GeorgeSmileyOBE Wouldn't be 5th choice there though

[Peter Duvall @Peter_Duvall]

@sidcelery I'm likely overestimating their competence as really you should be looking at doing this over the next few months, ideally before you start signing players without selling any or results go bad

[Peter Duvall @Peter_Duvall]

@sidcelery The allure of 10%-12% interest to in effect extend the loan 5 years should be pitchable - We have signed an elite manager (relegation risk should be low), we have loads of players that are valuable, we had the best academy in the world which is valuable

[Peter Duvall @Peter_Duvall]

@sidcelery This would then just push the problem down the road and will likely be a rolling refinance cycle every 5 years.

[Peter Duvall @Peter_Duvall]

@sidcelery Whilst we have transfer addicts and a worse squad, I do think they have shown enough ability to sell that they would be able to generate the cashflow to cover the interest and that there is enough assets still in the squads to cover the debt that they will be able to refinance

[Peter Duvall @Peter_Duvall]

@GeorgeSmileyOBE Blueco have proven time and time again they can't sign a CB better than him, maybe 10th times the charm

[Peter Duvall @Peter_Duvall]

@sidcelery As much as this would be funny. I think it will be easy enough to refinanced unfortunately. If they sell Enzo, Cucu and Gusto at book profits i think they will be able to justify the model enough for another high interest loan

[Peter Duvall @Peter_Duvall]

@SebC__ No and I haven't watched him at all so have no clue if he is any good and given our boards accument they probably don't either
But purely to play devil's advocate city have unlimited funds Italian clubs don't & if City are signing Gusto then I'm not trusting their judgement

[Peter Duvall @Peter_Duvall]

@SebC__ One of them apparently put 50m on the table

[Peter Duvall @Peter_Duvall]

@SebC__ Yeah but you support a mainstream club you can't pretend you are niche and cool

[Peter Duvall @Peter_Duvall]

@SebC__ I think Cucurella going is a sign they are backing Alonso, bigMac being there a massive negative as Shields' teeth will still be in the squad, but if the Italian npc has no agent links to the others than that is another tick on the alonso side

[Peter Duvall @Peter_Duvall]

@CFCParee If he gets to the point he scores a fluke screamer in Europe it is at least a good signing for this management group

[Peter Duvall @Peter_Duvall]

@SebC__ Never understand why people liked him. Came across so badly in interviews

[Peter Duvall @Peter_Duvall]

@PeteFiutak World cup this year has been watered down by expanding it, quality of opposition in the groups is generally on the weaker side.

[Peter Duvall @Peter_Duvall]

@BoZap7 @Luca_CFC @GoldbergCFC Get rid of one midtable team defender to buy another - that is the issue

[Peter Duvall @Peter_Duvall]

@ammattipyoraily You say this but it was also only 10% better than Foss/Vacek climbing quality at this race was poor
