Zajc will be Acun’s next big signing that he rants and raves about. How he worked hard to personally convince him to come. He’s worse than the player we’ve just sold for £1.7 million. He’d also be on decent wages as would Norwood. And so the cycle continues. Aging players on high wages and then the owner and his stooges and sycophants will cry foul about FFP.

While I’m in a football mood, there are a few free agents from the Premier League and other top flights becoming available on July 1st. These caught my eye as good signings for a team looking for promotion: Premier League Jairo Wiedewald Steven Alzate Samman Ghoddos Dele Alli (I know, but he’s still good) Adam Lewis Brandon Williams Jeff Hendrick Scott McKenna Marek Rodak Japhet Tanganga Ryan Sessegnon Louie Moulden Bundesliga Robert Skov Takuma Asano Marius Wolf John Brooks Benno Schmidt La Liga Mariano Diaz Alberto Moreno Munir El Haddadi Unai Lopez Ligue 1 Yusuf Yaziki (who I suspect Acun will go straight after and if he can’t get him for us he will for Fener). Ivan Cavaleiro Kevin N’Doram Layvin Kurzawa Serie A M’Baye Niang Caleb Ekuban Davy Klaasen Jaime Baez Stefano Sensi Ricardo Rodriguez Eredivise Hidde ter Avest Andre Ramalho Mathew Ryan Inigo Cordoba Mitchell Dijks I reckon if we’ve done our due diligence there’s a squad that can be assembled for a promotion push without breaking the bank.
Yusuf Yazici is a Trabzon-born player, won high-school world champ with his high school in Trabzon, came from youth ranks of Trabzonspor and was captain of Trabzonspor. Basically, if he transfers to Fenerbahce which is arch rival of them, his family won't have a good time there. That transfer is close to impossible, probably he hates Fenerbahce more than he likes Acun. On the other hand, he will never transfer to a Championship team.
We got any friends out there we can do an overinflated psr swap with? Seems to be working for Chelsea and Villa
Lost access to my account, gutted about Ozan but if he wants to go home to play for a big club on big wages for 4 years can’t really say no, feel we dropped the ball with the fee…
Yep, numbers wise we just about need all those listed. Job done. Good work. ps so long as at least one of them is a striker though
How do you know we didn't value him at that? What our (fans) valuation of a player and the owners look like being very different.
Sessegnon all day long, would fit perfectly into the style being talked about with Our new head honcho
While I agree with the sentiment, players go where the money is. People used to say “oh he won’t sign for them, they’re rivals” and yet we’ve had a fair few who have gone from Liverpool to Everton, Man U to Man City etc. And the chance to play in the Championship is seen as a gateway to the PL. I didn’t think we’d get somebody like Abdush (or Carvalho or Tufan, to be frank), but he was obviously convinced and he shone last season. I see no reason why Yaziki wouldn’t consider it, but he won’t be short of offers anyway, at least one PL team will want him and on a free he’s a great bit of business.
Ozan went to trazbonspor for much closer to his estimated current value (according to transfermarkt) than the fee for which Omur came the other way.
Quinn is 38 and playing for Mansfield, obviously not. We are short in nearly every area, so the opportunity to pick up an experienced player like Norwood on a free transfer, even if it’s just for a season is decent if the finances are right. Zajc is better than any box to box midfielder we have, in my opinion. He didn’t get much game time last season, but like the fella from Turkey said, that was more to do with him falling out with the ownership than him being unfit.
I am, but I’m saying that it’s not unheard of over here, or anywhere else in the world. It could well be that he is a Trabzonspor fan and doesn’t do it on principle, but footballers tend to lack principles when confronted with a big bag of cash.
