Immediately loaning him back to his current club until the end of the season.

Can't see mention of a buy-back clause but am assuming there is one.

Took a while but got there in the end.

I genuinely felt like he was on the cusp of a massive season, he's looked great in preseason and was expecting him to carry it over. Gutted, he's had some flak in the past and I thought he'd get to prove some doubters wrong.

I think right now before a ball is kicked, I'd take seventh again. However I think we might actually do better.

Unai is cooking.

Makes sense. Isn't going to get game time at Villa, seems to be loved by Luton, is a good deal all round I reckon. Can't be disappointed, came in when asked, did a job to best of his ability.

It's officially official.

ANOTHER raid on West Brom's youth setup!

Everybody loves Unai. Feels like there's really something building now.

Super John McGinn had penned a new four-year deal

Fairly convinced that if he played for one of the Sky Six, this wouldn't happen. Jordan, FFS.

New home shirt unveiled today; as everybody already knew, BK8 are our new sponsor. It's a commercial reality but a disappointing one.

Monchi will be "President of Football Operations", but possibly more interesting is Emery's number two Vidagany becoming Director of Football.

Love David's cartoons, and his wit is SHARP.
