Transfer Rumours Summer Transfer window

It’s all nonesense. One of the things happened years ago and the rest is a load of ****

 

Just saw this. Has to be bull ****

I wouldn’t **** my pants but I’d be concerned, I trust them to get the right deal done

 

sorry disagree, jones has potential Royal but he’s never been a left back. Loads of sympathy for the lad but he can’t be our option at left back

 

Pre-season totally different. I wouldn’t fancy him starting in the PL against quality wingers

 

I’m not happy about this link not going away.

Looking at all our other signings I want better (I might be delusional) plus afcon is a problem

 

If we sign two CBs, one would always be a bit more cheap. AFCON thing a huge issue though.

 

It is. Le Bris has already rubbished it in his after match interview.

 

Kiwior would be an outstanding signing mind.

if I remember correctly other, you’re a big fan aren’t you @Scout73 ?

 

Kiwior would be quality. My argument against us being able to sign him is that he'd have offers from Italian clubs in the Champions League, but actually we could possibly compete with that. Bournemouth would probably gazump us though!

Anyone interested in Hojlund for £30m? Probably a bit rich for the rebuild needed, but there's a cracking player in there in my opinion that's had his confidence knocked at Man Utd.

 

Balls, so there might be a little truth in the rumours …

 

Are you saying the only reason he hasn’t been playing is due to this minor injury?

 

This is a tricky one to figure out. I think this lad isn't nearly as bad as people are making out. I think at the price, he brings in plenty of experience that solidifies us.

He's left footed though and would surely be first choice. He's also Moroccan so will be missing during AFCON.

So then we reach the question of what do we target for our second CB signing? Someone to compete with Ballard or someone to compete with Aguerd (cover AFCON).

Maybe Diakite does it all.

 

Fingers crossed the worst part of the rumour is bollocks then

 

Have we seen a price mentioned for him? West Ham paid £30m for him three years ago.

 

I think £12m was mentioned earlier in the window.

 

Regarding Patto:

Clearly no-one knows the full story of what's going on.

Anyone who does know clearly can't/won't post it as fact as they would have done so.

The discussion about rumours that can't be talked about isn't helping this thread, it isn't adding anything to the conversation and it is probably just assisting the spreading of more rumours.

Can we just leave it alone? We have Roefs in goal for now and Patto's situation will reveal itself in time.

 

Great post

 

Would much prefer Lucumi to Aguard. But I’m starting to think we’re being used by his agents to get him a European move/more established prem club. Can see Lucumi at Bournemouth the day after the Ukrainian lad signs on at PSG.

That being said can see the club just landing a player out of nowhere ala Roefs, someone with data access compare Lucumi and Aguards metrics and then find players that fit the profile and we will probably find the guy the clubs pulling for.
