@CWeatherspoon_ If these players don't make the PL grade they are then sold back to the EFL clubs for a few million quid each. Its all wrong right now…

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

@CWeatherspoon_ Suggestion for a future article: Where did the money go How much of the £2bn went back to the lower leagues? With the last 6 promoted teams going straight back down, how is the massive PL revenue to be trickled down if not through transfer fees? See part 2 below

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

@CWeatherspoon_ With PL teams hovering up the EFL talent whilst they are still kids how do the EFL share in the pot? Young talented payers are regularly snapped up for nothing or next to nothing and end up in top 6 academies only to be loaned back to the EFL..more below

@TheSquareBall We’ve had worse windows let’s be honest.
That said, Farke wanted a 10, the fans know we need a 10, the pundits say we lack creativity.. It’s not like they didn’t know. I can see a lot of narrow losses coming up which will be extra painful..

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

@TheSquareBall @cmcmenamy_ What. I would most like to hear is who we actually missed out on. We have a decent team, we just need a decent no10. What it seems like is that we had a very narrow shortlist, and once we had burned through that, it was all over. Any decent plan would have gone from 1 -10 not 1-3

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

@BerenCross Champo refs suck. So inconsistent.

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

@anon_opin 100%. It will be advertised on the menu like its a good thing!

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

@TheSquareBall Big gamble. If Bamford doesn't break. If Joseph steps up, if a winger works at 10. If we don’t get too many injuries. Maybe it will be fine.

If we don't get promoted, next summer will be the same, best players leave.. etc etc..

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

@GrahamSmyth Feels like an unnecessary gamble. We’re going to need some key players to stay fit and on form. Especially at 9. @GrahamSmyth how bad was our PSR commitment? seems like there’s a hell of a lot of money still in the bank. Why risk missing promotion and the inevitable sales?

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

This is a big gamble #lufc
IF Bamford stays fit and finds form
IF Joseph can do the business
IF a winger can work as a 10
IF we can get a lot of goals from midfield
Then it will all be fine…..

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

@leodislufc @LUFC Up front definitely. Huge amount of weight on the shoulders of young Joseph and Bamford.

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

Top tip #lufc. Next time you’re planning a low key window spending pocket money on a few lads from lower league European teams why not just say so. What could have been a positive window now feels like a huge let down. Any chance you can spend the enormous profit on catering?

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

No disrespect to the new signings, but Farke was quick to point out that they were untested at this level and would need time, not direct replacements etc. So where’s a No10? Another 9? We’re only one injury away from having no recognised 9 and still no 10. #lufc ?

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

@TariqJabbar80 He's a footballer FFS! Do you care who Dan James voted for? or That Brenden Aaronsen is a yank? No one cares. We all go to watch them play. Thats all.
Keep your shitty identity politics out of our club.

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

@francisjfoster LOL. Given that Hugh Edward’s is still on full pay even though he’s been accused of kiddiefiddling and videoing it, whatever Jenas did must have been horrendous to have got him sacked. He probably liked one of your tweets or something.

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

@TheSquareBall Well it’s a start.

I see Ilkay Gundogan and Raheem Stirling are looking for moves too..

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

@TheSquareBall Now we can have a little scum bastard on both wings…

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

@TheSquareBall It’s crazy how we can go from the high of beating Valencia after a great pre season to shipping 6 goals at home and selling everyone’s favourite player.
And Phil’s gone…
Can we have a Michael’s Man Club episode? I feel like I need a shoulder to cry on.

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

@TheSquareBall I joked on Moscow’s twitter after the Boro game that we’d sell Gnonto in the morning… Almost , but worse. Much worse…Fucks sake.

[Tom Dixon @TomD74]

@MoscowhiteTSB We are shockingly bad in defence, huge gaps, no closing down. Boro were excellent, we were shite. I was super confident a week ago.

Got a bad feeling now.

We announce Gnonto sale tomorrow….
