Chelsea are poised to submit a £130m bid for Borussia Dortmund’s Norway striker Erling Braut Haaland, 22, after owner Roman Abramovich gave his blessing to proceed with what would be a club-record deal. (Football Insider)

How can you reach an agreement with a player before a club has accepted your bid??
Manchester City have reached an agreement with Jack Grealish and are ready to offer Aston Villa £90m for the England attacking midfielder, 25. (Football Insider)
I hope you aren’t suggesting that a club of City’s stature might approach a player without getting explicit permission from his current employers first? 
£17m? Ah, another Carrillo
Carrillo is not British and was not playing in the UK.
Just saying. 
It’ll be fine as long as he changes his name to avoid all the confusion tbf (not Carrillo btw)
Makes sense to me
Finally confirmation from Saints.
Phil Jones?
WTF have I just watched? I must have missed something here… 
All I got was
Well you’ll still know about as much as me!
Some say…
Phil Jones on a free from Man Ure to give us experience at the back…
He’s only 29 - if we could get him on a £60k a week 3 year deal I think it would have the potential to be a Jonny Evans to Leicester type signing
Nicked nicked nicked.
I’ve seen questions raised about Jones’ recent fitness record. It appears to be worse than Danny Ings when he was mooted as a target. IF he could stay fit then I think he would be a good addition.
Toby Alderweireld’s left Spurs and gone to play in Qatar. I guess that’s the money talking, rather than getting acclimatised for the World Cup.
Him and Ings. Best deadline days ever
Making room for Jannick 
But we’ve already signed his replacement!
