Transfer Rumours Summer Transfer window

Sorry, Dominic Calvert Lewin

 

We have these same arguments every summer. It was previously left backals - I remember Dan Neil starting there in league one - and obviously strikers. It is what it is and I'm pretty sure the club have irons in lots of fires but the last thing I want them to do is spunk a load of money on a player - like we did for djobdji and ndong - just to appease a few inpatient fans. If we have to start the season with ballard and seelt or the Madrid defender so be it. Its not ideal obviously and we might lose the game but it's a long old season. If it takes a few weeks to get the right defender then I'm prepared to wait. Remember the impact Evans had and we didn't have him immediately. Good players can adapt very quickly

 

Hmmmm. As long as its pay as you play deal then I'm OK with it. Different to what we've got. Probably horseshit though.

 

It was a report that we made an offer to him but didnt go any further dont think its an active discussion

 

Good he's a poor man's Andy Carroll

 

I am bored. I have therefore invented a new recruitment process for the club. All this scouting and data seems a bit 2024 to me.

Player retention and recruitment should be based on name alone.

So Joe Anderson remains and plays every game. That is because Stan Anderson was good so Joe must be too.
Bafode Diakite must not be signed. That is because Modibo Diakite was rubbish.
Loic Bade must not be signed. That is because I never liked Loic Remmy and we once had Remmy Matthews who was bad.

Keep the links coming and I will assess them based on my new system. Patent pending.

 

Hmmmm. My own opinion is that as supporters we have been burned for decades with relegations and false dawns. So we can be forgiven if we don’t get fully on board. That said I am as optimistic as I can be and genuinely do believe that with KLD in charge we are in excellent hands. And this time there is something there that in my lifetime was missing. I just want it to be us. Not another team.
A bit of a convoluted way of saying I’m very excited.

 

Oh id so hate to be like that, I mean some of them should clearly be in football because they know way more then our professional team.

 

Hahahaha

 

if sesko does end up at man utd i think the mags are fecked, one way or another...many reports that isak wants away then they actually show willingness to pay big, much more than offered to any previous targets (going off previous reports) so they really could end up in 'panic mode' as i very much doubt isak will be happy to stay, might even chuck his toys out and take a big fine to get his move plus any further striker targets will want the same or more than they offered for sesko then add that any team throwing money reaching 100M around will get hit with 'wealth tax' on any other possible targets.

really starting to look like a novice playing in the big poker league for the first time, and we all know how that usually ends up.

PS: we will get CB's

 

People can do what they want, just saying I can't get my head around living like that

 

No man it's Eddie playing 4D chess

 

This guy sums it up perfectly.



I think there’s word going around in the football world about them lot, that we aren’t hearing. Just won a cup and champions league football, yet players literally seem desperate to not want to go there.

 

Agree. I maybe only one defender away from being very excited indeed.

 

Any chance of Spurs swooping for Wissa?

 

The mags

 

Financially I’d expect we’d be totally fine as you say. It’s the disruption that comes with losing every one of your midfield options for example (as I’d anticipate we would). That level of upheaval doesn’t help you to yo-yo back to the PL in a single season.

 

Weak defence and forwards who have really struggled to score? Not looking too clever from where I am standing like

 

My god, the mags are in a right pickle.

Lol.
