I think WBA will announce him 5 mins before the KO (turns out he signed last week), he will then play and excel in a 1-0 home win, the winning goal being a Cathcart og.
To fully drive it into the ground, my original post was satirizing the fact that Davy Crockett literally restated the joke that TUT was already making in in response/reply to it. TUT in reply did the same in a self-aware way, so I completed the puzzle by restating the final piece of the what did not need to be restated puzzle. TUT briefly took me at face value in doing so. I made off like a villain.
I’d take a CB who can defend right now after last nights showing. Cathcart and Kabasele looked like they’d gone to the future where heading is banned. Thank god for Sierralta- and now he might be injured. What the hell did he do last season? Must have slept with all the owners, managers and players wives or something.

If there is, this account would have no idea. It is obviously a fake account as has been said on a number of occasions. No idea why people keep posting it.
As much as this account is just a guy spouting nonsense, I do tend to think Clarke is the target. I know it’s not Hause (unless I’ve been lied to by usual sources) and I’d be surprised if it’s Greaves given Duxbury’s comments to Andrew French.
In the same Twitter space as the TDB news was mentioned, a (different) guy came on and essentially said what is in that tweet, although he didn't name the player or other interested clubs.
As an aside - and it won’t happen now that Edwards has named Cleverley as capatain - but Clarke would have been an ideal candidate for new captain if he arrives earlier in the summer. Good age, has been captain at previous clubs and guaranteed to start. All the things Cleverley hasn’t, or shouldn’t, be.
Yet won PoTS in 3 of his last 4 seasons and was included in PFA Team of The Season. Doesn’t sound like he needs pace - which you don’t if you can read the game well.
Surely depending on the set-up, pace might well be important to a CB? Especially in a back 3 with 2 attack-minded wing-backs who might not be around to help out?
Not saying he's not a decent player but we have nobody with any pace back there. Plus Masina made team of the season so I'm not reading too much into that.
Tbf I think anyone with functioning brain cells would have known Masina didn't belong in that team (as solid as he was for us that season!), but 3 PotS at his clubs in the past 4 seasons sounds promising!
Derby and West Brom?? Again, I'm not saying he's a bad player but I think people are getting a bit excited just because he's left footed. I appreciate there's not a huge pool of homegrown left sided centre backs to choose from, nothing wrong with preferring some pace at the back though.
He was extremely highly rated at Portsmouth - hence Brighton buying him (and they don’t often get it wrong with defenders). Has just had a bit of bad luck that Webster, Dunk and Duffy (and latterly White) translated so well to the PL. Went down a league (but still the highest he would have played in due to not appearing for Brighton and Pompey being in L1/L2) and has excelled in each season. Still a good age, scope to show he’s a PL player and has been captain before. There’s so much in there that we should be all over, left-footed or not.
Just looking at Brightons roster ( as our European friends like to call it) and apart from Clarke they only have 4 CBs. Seeing as they play 3 at the back one would think they would need more than 4 CBs in the squad.
