Timothy-Robert, the one and only!
I said it, we'll have everyone back by the end of this transfer window. 😆
Why have we left this so late? Is he has a known injury problem surely we will want our medical team with him a little longer?
Have a feeling we won't be getting him now.
Some rumours we may delay this one and go all in for a CB, I could live with that. We do need a LB but CB should take more priority for now.
go back for him in january, if celtic makes the CL group stages let him get a run out in that before they are bounced.
Theres no way he will be staying if Celtic completes the move for Henry

He has Gilmores Groin, which can be a pretty horrendous injury.  Two rugby players, Manu Tuilagi and Matt Tait were both out for over a year with it. Tuilagi recovered after about 12 months, played for a bit, then missed about another 6 months with it. Not sure on the exact details, but I think it’s when the muscle separates from the pubis bone, and there’s no surgical intervention that can sort it. Just rest and rehab...and hope.

That is a big worry as signing him now is a years wages down the drain with no guarantee that he will recover. Welcome back Tim-dawg, btw. Dula will be pleased!
Still in for him?

This is the prudent thing. Would this guy even pass a medical with his sore crotch?
Not sure if the language of "hope to sign a centre back" vs "still in for Tierney" indicates a shift in priorities (allied with Tierney's injury).
If he's their target its with a view to the long term. I'd still keep on him now if possible but if it drags till January no harm. We don't want to lose our first choice target over a few months wages though.
Qwiss depends on the extent of the injury. If he can pass a medical and be playing for us easily by October then by all means sign him. If he has something that’s potentially debilitating, then let him prove his health first.

it's not about a couple months wages, it's about the fee and the long term contract. i need to see him play.

"Please Arsenal, give us your money".
😆 Bit desparate there, Neil. Play it cool.
maybe we'll win this game of chicken after all
Imagine the madness tomorrow. Tierney for 25 and Upa for whatever+ESR.
Get 'er done!

It is shaping up to be a mad day.
Can’t stand Lennon and his big fat head
