Transfer Rumours Summer Transfer window

Yeah hes class, just an ongoing ankle thing that doesnt seem to go away for too long - totally makes the difference for hertha and they'd have been promoted by now if he was fit for this season.

 

Probably one that they want to get Premier League experience but Ben Doak...

 

100 pages before anyone signs is top work gents

 

Aim is 1000, you know the rules.

Hoping for 200 before the window opens.

 

As it stands we have a big squad and it's going to be interesting to see how many go out and how many go in. Obviously we know Mepham, Samed, Le Fee and Watson are away (I'm working on the assumption we don't go up) then you have all the lads on loan at other clubs. Squad as I see it:



Think Neil and Cirkin's contract situations put them at risk
Anderson has another year but surely it's time he moved on - at 24 he's almost one of the senior pros at the club
RLB clearly doesn't rate Pembele, Ba or Aouchiche so I reckon they'll be moved on. Ekwah has a fee agreed and sounds like he's happy to stay at St. Étienne )FWIW £6m is excellent business)
As with Anderson, Matete has another year, but again it's time he moved on.

Jobe is the stand out departure, I think we can all agree he will leave regardless. I just hope we get a good deal

 

Quite a few in the 'will stay' section that should/could be moved on as well.

Poveda
Roberts
Johnson
Huggins (great player just never fit)
Patterson possibly

 

Jones too tbf, think he needs a full season in L2/L1

 

Don’t agree with Huggins this is his chance he’s had two very serious unlucky injuries rather than loads of niggly ones

Roberts id drop to a squad player unless we can sign two good wingers

 

Huge pre season for him, I would just worry if he's 1 of 2 right backs in the squad. Superb player though

 

Young should be loaned unless we want him as no.1

Hjelde, Aleksic, Abdullahi I could definitely see being loaned but will depend on incomings.

 

Something more like this for me with the shading being how likely I feel they are to stay.

 

If we don't go up and we get a good offer for Patto, going with a combination of Simon Moore/Matty Young wouldn't be the worst idea I've heard, use Moore as the experienced head and dip Young in and out early to see how he manages it, with the plan that he is our number 1 before the end of the season. It all depends on the ambitions the club have, if we're really ambitious you'd be looking to spend whatever you get from Patto and a bit more on a top class international calibre keeper.

 

Was just watching some of the highlights from the Belgian conference groups (yes I'm a sad sad little nerd) - forgot just how good Charleroi's midfield duo is of Adem Zorgane (25) and Yacine Titraoui (21).

The two Algerians have been some of the most impressive in Europe this season and over the last few. Wouldn't mind then if we went up and certainly not if we dont.

 

I really want to see triantis give a chance, think he could be a good replacement for jobe/neil

 

Roberts should stay as backup but one of the main priorities in replacing him imo

 

I'd rather see him leave personally but backup is fine as long as he's replaced seriously, not with a Poveda type.

 

Hes still decent and would certainly be good backup. Too asisster this season still

 

He is on 65k a week, there is not a chance we pay that unless we're promoted, the only way he joins us permanently in the Championship is if he takes at least a 40% wage cut.

 

How does Triantis compare to the likes of Mcgeouch and Mcginn in the season before they left for England? Be interesting to see how Hibs fans and the data stacks up in comparison to those 2. We all know by now that we got the wrong one
