    So we will come 11th in Brexit and BJ will **** us totally - probably best for the country though

    I hope this deal is off now. I am not convinced he's worth it.

    I expect that CP will sign him once Zaha is gone (Sarr-ha ?).
    And if they don't, I don't want him as he's clearly not good enough for them.

    Can only be ‘off’ if it was ‘on’ in the first place. It’s that I’m not convinced about.

    The moment I read the story where it claimed Sarr had ‘told teammates his preference was a move to Watford’ - that swung the whole story into ‘utter b*llocks’ territory for me.

    I still don't quite understand who he even is. I've only heard of him because the AFCON Final was on in a bar and he was ****.

    Pointless judging him on one game. I’d rather judge him on the hundreds of games I’ve not seen him play and hype him up to be our newest savior.

    I won’t be sure about this until we get someone signing up to the forum pretending to be from Senegal, who refuses to use any capital letters in their posts.

    Hmmm
    No african team has ever won the World Cup or the Champions League. Not sure why we would want players from such a continent.

    Stick to Brazilians please Genome!

    I steer clear of such stereotypes after what happened to Alan Sugar and his Lookie Lookie tweet.

    Okaka comprehensively outscored Paulo Dybala last year in Serie A. He is the big hope

    We’re not signing anyone. Dawson was our big fish this summer and that’s it. We’re done.

    It will be the usual drivel following the window closing of Dux claiming that we had many irons in the fire but we just ran out of time after having over 2 months to make something happen. It will be proceeded by the normal statement of, we knew our targets and made a very good offer but another club offered more. We have a very good squad, with a head coach that is pushing the players forward. We have a huge belief in all the players at Watford FC and have no doubt it will be a successful campaign. We will only buy if the price is right and someone that can take the club to the next level. We want to be the best of the rest.

    There’s no away kit to ‘announce’. It just goes on sale tomorrow so unless he’s pulling a shift in the club shop, unveiling him tomorrow won’t have much commercial effect. And I doubt we will announce anyone who hasn’t had a medical yet...

    I believe we are still negotiating the price with Adidas for the away shirts. Adidas wants to join us and the deal is moving forward. It’s expected to be concluded at some point in the future. Then we start on the sock negotiation.

    Gino's had him queueing in A&E since lunchtime. It's just a waiting game now.

    91 million net loss on transfers in our time in the Prem. Made 32 million profit last season and so far this pre season. Living within our means is vital to keep our club on a sound footing. Spending on more junk squad filler for the sake of it isn't. I reckon Sarr is a potential 50 million player. We will sign him with this in mind.

    No more Zeegelars. We want Sarrs.

    We want Sarr’s, but we will get Oulare’s and Zeegelaar’s come deadline day.
