Transfer Rumours Summer Transfer window

How many would you guess out of curiosity

 

aslong as our depth isn't as drastic as Roberts to Poveda and Mundle to a centre-mid i'll be happy

 

Agree.

It’s a good core. If we nail the 4-5 we are fine.

Patto is fine
Hume, Enzo, Mayenda.
Cirkin if fit.
Neil and Mundle will grow into the league.

You've then got Alese and Huggins who absolutely have prem ability.

I want us to buy appropriately and compete but I’d be gutted if we tore this team apart. Speakman seems to have made that clear, we won’t.

If it’s 5

Then we be alright. Maybe an extra CM.

We need to breathe.

 

PS I don't think Speakman even knows how many we'll bring in. The market is too unpredictable for that. We don't know how many will leave. We don't know if the type of player you can't say no to might make themselves available.

For instance I don't reckon we were necesarilly after Le Fee... he just became available and was too good an option to turn down. That could happen on the 30th August again.

So if Speakman doesn't know exactly how many, no journalist will.

 

Just to go back to Keith, the wording on the Henderson part is just flat out bad journalism. Wording it so he can't be called out for being wrong either way.

 

4/5 'le fee' type signings with that and weve a canny little team

 

I reckon 10 total. But 2-3 of those will be youth / squad players in the same kinda style as (better versions of) Hjelde and Aleksic.

(and obviously I'm not claiming any sort of expertise here - just my gut feeling)

 

Yeah probably not unreasonable, I don't have a number in my head at the minute.

If I was going to think now maybe:
10/11 depending on outgoings, would sign a couple kids to loan out immediately.

 

No idea what’s best for Sterling next. He’s only 30 but hasn’t performed for a long time now

 

I still think there might be another outgoing that we don’t want. Either Neil or Hume.

And then I think we ideally need to loan out Hjelde and Huggins. Which leaves us diabolically short at full back.

Harrison Jones and Aleksic also need loaning out.

And that’s just from the squad who finished the season. I’m not even thinking about the deadwood like Bennette, Rusyn, Matete etc

and **** knows what we do with Poveda who gets his own category BELOW deadwood

 

Contract terminated, please

 

We already killed jewi

 

God rest his soul

 

Stepped on a landmine last I heard, shame really.

 

We've known Jobe was going to leave this summer for a year. We just didn't know what league we would be in.

Wouldn't be at all surprised if we're far down the line with someone to replace him.

 

We won't be bringing 10 in.

 

I wouldn’t be so sure on that, a lot can change over the course of a window

 

There'll be 7/8 outgoings, will need 10 tbh

 

Yep, wouldn’t a shock to see double figures for outgoings
