Kevin Stewart has now left the Liverpool training camp and is on his way to us. I wonder if he's giving Ryan Kent a lift?
What has really impressed me about Leo is his knowledge of the English game. I expected him to come in and bring in a lot of foreign players, but he's doing quite the opposite.
Last time we got relegated we sold far less, and we've been selling players relatively cheap, something definitely changed last season.
I don't buy that at all. I get the feeling that he's watch a mountain of games since he's been in the country.
So if no players leave and Clark comes in we'll have 3 players who regularly play left midfield / left wing and no out and out right midfielders / wingers. It is getting a bit last window now.
"Fraizer is a really good player and this is a really good transfer for us," said Slutsky. "It is another player for our attacking group. Each transfer is difficult work and it is like having two jobs at the moment - one as a coach and one having conversations with potential new players. "There are a lot of negotiations going on right now and we are very close to more."
John Bradley @JBcommentator Kevin Stewart is an excellent signing for Hull. Mature lad, disciplined player, good attitude. Should stand out in Championship.
Really? I think Mcguire and Robbo (proposed) deals are correctly priced, I think both would have gone even if we stayed up. Davies and Hudd had buy out clauses, given their ages they maybe slightly low but not far off. Tymon was a mess up by the club, the loans were always going to go.
Philip Buckingham @PJBuckingham Club sec David Beeby arrived in Portugal yesterday. Expecting #hcafc to be busy for the rest of this week. Kevin Stewart next.
Completely agree with you, Harry and Robbo would have been off had we stayed up (Harry to possibly a bigger club, maybe soton), and we would have needed to pay around £50m to make five of the loan signings full deals. Personally I think relegation could be good for us. I think Slutsky was brought in due to his knowledge of the development players of top teams, with an eye on talented young players at a reasonable price. Question is will Ehab actually see through the vision and pay the fees (and offer right deals), and will we come across as a club able to meet the ambition. I fear not on the early indications
Pickford for 30 million and Jak for people are saying 2-3 million? Two relegated clubs selling but is Jak that much worse?
Pickford is just a tot in keeper terms and is likely to go on to become England's number 1. Yes, he made a few error last season, but his raw ability and potential is staggering
We signed Livermore on loan. After he had made about 35 PL starts and shown he gelled with our team, we then shelled out money for him.
We've had a loan bid accepted for Kent, but Leeds and another club have as well. I hope with Stewart coming our way Kent might be happy to join us.
