    No danger we spend that much for a back up

    To be fair I don’t think it’s too far fetched.

    In the 55 season didn’t we roughly spend about £3.5mil on Roofe and £2.7m on Itten whilst we still had Morelos as our main “number 9”?

    I wouldn’t be too surprised if we sold Colak for around £2mil given the rumours floating around and then start next season with another new striker, Dessers and Roofe as ST options.

    Just finished TLOU2 last night, I know it’s been out years but thought I’d still use spoiler tags

    I know a lot of people have issued with some of the pacing and some of the elements in the story but I don’t think I’ve ever played a video game with so much emotional impact as that, genuinely feel like I have a hole in my life now it’s over after spending a few weeks on both games

    :lol:

    Actually had a lump in my throat as well when Ellie played Take On Me on the guitar and then also during her final scene with Joel at the end in which she told him she’d like to try and forgive him.

    I have to admit, I wasn’t overly keen on Abby’s section and the length of it but I get why they did it and that the point was to initially hate her and then later empathise with her albeit I couldn’t wait to go back to playing as Ellie towards the end of Abby’s section. Felt sick to death of going back to that Aquarium. In saying that though, from a neutral point of view Abby’s section probably had more interesting set pieces, I just didn’t care too much for her.

    Surely there has to be a third one in the future, especially considering the success of the TV show? I know there is a sense of resolution in Ellie’s story as whilst she is still heartbroken by Joel’s death, she has accepted it and that revenge is the wrong path that only leads to a continued cycle of violence and more heartbreak. However, I feel like her story isn’t fully over and that she still needs to find her place in the world so to speak and repair some of the relationships broken by the end of the second game.

    For me personally though, I would hate if the 3rd game revolved around Abby and Lev.

    Haven't played second as I got rid of playstation right after playing the first one when it first came out and it was possibly one of the best games I ever played. Wish I'd kept it just to play it again. Will look at the PC remaster when it comes down in price. 

    Normally I dont really play many single players anymore just due to a lack of time really but I ended up spending 12 hours over the bank holiday weekend on TLOU2 😂

    I'm even counting down the hours in the day until I get to go on it again tonight as childish as it sounds.

    I’m obviously years late but I’ve been playing The Last of Us games recently and don’t think I’ve ever been this obsessed by a game series in years.

    Never had a PlayStation until recently so I had never played them upon release but picked up the PS5 remaster of the first one the other week and just started the second one on Friday. I know people have problems with the second one but generally speaking I think they are both exceptional stories and can’t remember the last time I’ve felt like that playing a video game.

    Why you selling Yilmaz?

    He’s obviously been unlucky with injuries but if we can recoup a half decent fee I’d sell him to raise funds.

    Haven't really been massively impressed by the little we’ve seen of him and whilst I appreciate that he may well improve, for £5mil he should really be one of our best players.
