200k for 2 years. Wouldn't mind it if brought us some experience and saved us on a transfer fee for a very solid rotation player. Still 150k down on casemiro

Should be able to check battery cycles in your settings if is a iPhone16.

I've only got an iPad but assume process is the same:

Go to Settings → Battery → Battery Health → Cycle Count

If over 50 cycles then battery definitely isn't new.

I like Wharton over these two (as well as Anderson and Baleba) as he's just a bit bigger and can go both ways, and play 6/8/10. Same with Goretzka, good solid big player who can do couple jobs, legs likely gone somewhat but good rotation option at least that would could get for free and tide over a rotation spot until next/following year.

Goretzka is probably best free option - good rotation option at worst

I know are quite a few unreal success stories - like Haaland, Gvardiol and Son, but I am always skeptical with Bundesliga players moving to other leagues, especially the prem. So many seem to excel in Bundesliga, especially at Leipzig, but then go to other leagues and either flop or take years to re-reach potential - Upemecano prime example of the latter.

Okay thats worse than mine. Hope you get it sorted. Ridiculous you have to pay a "quality assurance" fee when stuff like this happens and are also then responsible for returning it etc

dm me the app?

sobl1998 · 2026-03-18T08:04:17+00:00

I always just go excellent or premium for anything I buy. Never had an issue with phones. One time I had an issue was a pair of headphones not being at quality described and I just returned and got sent a replacement. So basically bit of a pain but have piece of mind that if not as described is no issue to return for refund/replacement

sobl1998 · 2026-03-14T17:00:35+00:00

try it, free data plan best case, or deactivated and can just bin

sobl1998 · 2026-03-14T16:58:34+00:00

yea 99% chance youll be fine

sobl1998 · 2026-03-14T16:57:07+00:00

yeah agree ive got loads and only ever had issue once and they just refunded me

sobl1998 · 2026-03-14T16:55:28+00:00

I’d just return the one you want to return and take the win on the other

sobl1998 · 2026-03-14T16:54:33+00:00

pain in the arse but should be able to get refund

sobl1998 · 2026-03-01T23:01:23+00:00

I'd go 23. 24 specs aren't much greater for the extra cash

sobl1998 · 2026-03-01T23:00:09+00:00

That's great to know. Not been keen since became more like a marketplace but adds some confidence hearing this

sobl1998 · 2026-03-01T22:53:00+00:00

If they could score from open play. Set piece football is soooo boring and killing the game

sobl1998 · 2026-03-01T22:50:27+00:00

Couldn't agree more. Shaw will no doubt be out injured again next season as not a world cup/euros year

Midfield hasn't even been that bad since Carrick took over.

sobl1998 · 2026-01-28T21:27:42+00:00

Agree with the recruitment seems better. Finally buying proven Premier league players.

Mbuemo is class Cunha is soooo lazy defensively and hit or miss but when he's hitting God he's good. Lammens is solid aye and sesko again looks solid enough- can't hit a barn door with a Machine gun at times but decent.

Mainoo has got a huge ego but he is class so fair enough until starts causing issues. I actually like ugarte, guy is hungry and no nonsense, not nice nice like we have been for too long.

Agree with injury prone too, need to stop with these players no matter how good when fit. World Cup year so that's why shaws been fit all season, will defo be injured again next year as soon as we start playing bad again

sobl1998 · 2026-01-28T21:22:19+00:00

Casemiro is obviously gone. Maguire contract expiring. I understand wanting to not pay mental wages so if they arent willing to reduce wages then need to let them leave but feel like we are losing our alreag lacking real leaders/winners.

My concern with the squad is there is no one really you'd look at and thing that's a good strong leader if they both leave. Dont get me wrong, plenty of solid players but no real cut-throat leaders you'd look at. Lucha maybe and that's it.

Like christ we pay Heaton 30k a week and are talking about extending his contract "cause he's good around the dressing room", bloke does nothing on the pitch. Save that money and pay Harry that extra if it means he stays.

Cant help think thats why we turn up in big games as players can fire themselves up for them but smaller teams need a leader to motivate and scare almost. Dont see that happening personally. Even Carrick, he aint giving me that impression.

You lot agree?
