Oh I do. I see it in almost every post you make

So, that proves that you actually don't know the meaning.  My posts can be described as very many things, but "smug" most definitely is not one of them

Not all millenials, just you.  You are a whinger,  etc, etc, etc.  Never post anything that isn't bitch-whiney. Not all younger members are like that.  And, as I keep on saying, far from knowing it all, I know nothing, I'm not privy to the inner workings of the club, so am happy to wait and see what is announced officially, by the club.  Not some prat on twitter, not some guessing journo, not some click-bait web-site,but officially confirmed,  by the club.

Errrrm, yes 

Nothing we can do about it. We're stuck with each other. Might as well get along.

Why not 

We basically signed Jorginho over asking price as to disguise the Sarri fee, right?

In the spirit of diving into needless semantics, let me also point out to you that you don't seem to know the meaning of the word "never" either.

I can go back a few posts and show you comments I've made that are the complete opposite of this scenario you've painted. If you want me to, I'll indulge. 

I'm sorry if you're uncomfortable with me pointing out whatever I feel is wrong/mishandled at the club but that's your problem. I don't believe in living in a bubble. When it's good, I say it. When it's bad, I say it. Simple.

Ahh, you mean patience, (the capacity to accept or tolerate delay, trouble, or suffering without getting angry or upset),

The perfect compromise. ADL gets the Sarri money he wanted and we get to act like we got Sarri for free. Everyone comes out looking like a winner.

Yes there is no doubt it's a joint fee.  Paying 65m for Jorginho when Man City was offering somewhere around 40m and Napoli valued him closer to 50m.

It's not even just 65m. Man City offered 50m in installments. We offered Napoli 57m upfront and 8m in add-ons. ADL will take that any day.

I still will be shocked if we sign Higuain.  There’s no way we fork over a large sum for him, solely based on the fact that he is 30, and will turn 31 in early December.

It's the rumour that i hope is bullsh*t. I don't want him here, i would much rather stick to what we have. I'm not a fan of Higuain, especially now. At his age, he's not going to get any better and there are already signs that he isn't as good as before.

Higuain had his best season under Sarri and Sarri converted Mertens from an average winger to a very prolific false 9. I think if we stick to what we have he may do something good with Morata. Don't see the point of helping Juve basically foot their entire Ronaldo transfer fee. Now if they wanted to offer us Dybala, we should be jumping at that without a second thought.

This tweet doesn't seem quite accurate, DL actually said "I have proposed some conditions now let’s see what happens in the next few hours.  My lawyers have prepared some text that has been submitted to his lawyers, let’s see.  Let’s wait and see.  I always say let’s wait and see.

Looks like Jorginho and Sarri is a package deal so if Jorginho falls through everything might still crumble.

This looks like it was copy and pasted from a tweet on Twitter? Can't be true. Won't believe it until i see it from a real source.

Felt a little sad for Conte watching that video.  Sorry it didn't work out and thanks for the trophies Antonio.

Of course it's not true, just more bollocks written by someone with no more knowledge of the situation than you or I.

Dunno, Liverpool paid £60m for Keita. United paid similar for Fred... I'm not sure the fee is particularly inflated for the current market.
