Transfer Rumours Transfer Rumours thread

We'll have to change our Super Cup tactics when the massive hole in their defence is gone

 

So you want him back as a ref now

 

Young, English, highly rated and no transfer request (yet). No way is he going for less than £40m.

AWB cost £55m for example, after one season.

 

yeah but AWB had a good season unlike Sess hence the swop in values. Might be ridiculously kneejerk reaction but football today

 

City buy Cancelo for £60m, but its cut in half with Danilo going to Juve.

Tierney going to Arsenal for around £25m

 

David luiz to Arsenal?! Weird transfer that’ll be.

 

They'll buy him back in a year...

 

Neymar to Madrid.. wtf is going on

 

That's money well spent, he looks very good

 

I think that one was rather predictable tbh

 

I’m assuming everyone will be excited when we sign Werner tomorrow

 

Is this the same Klopp who persisted with Karius despite many fans wanting a proper goalkeeper? One blunder too many and he finally went and got another one. No one is infallible and sometimes faith in someone can make you blind. Whilst his ideal of buying no one unless the right player is available is admirable, there's always a grey area - As has been much discussed, our fullback and forward options are paper thin; none of our backup fullbacks are anywhere close to being as effective in an attacking sense as Robbo or Trent and none of our backup forwards are anywhere near as prolific or hard working as our starting three (who've barely had a rest this summer either).

I love the optimism, but I find it hard to share it looking at all of our rivals plugging gaps in their squads.

 

If we jumped on "anyone but Karius" we wouldn't now have Alisson, if we jumped on "anyone but Lovren" we wouldn't now have Van Dijk

Our strategy avoids wasting lots of money so we can get the #worldclass options when they arise

Everton are the opposite, throwing ~£30m on #nomarks left, right, and centre then wondering why they're only going backwards while we're making CL finals year after year after year

 

I have no doubt that we’ll be competitive again this season without signings. But it was a chance to close that marginal gap with city.

All of our rivals have strengthened as well which will make this season tougher than last.

 

We have been able to keep our key players and some of them have signed contract extension too. I think we are going to challemge this season.

 

I'm not worried about the season at all we have a great squad but to me not adding a forward it's a mistake. Let's see what happens.

 

This is very true

 

The one counter argument offer though is your team is as good as it ever was and are all at good ages (mixture of youmg and experience).

You very nearly won the league and maybe you should try to push for it with some signings as team are always in cycles. In a year or two, players may move on, he even your great manager is probably going to be gone in 2 years (whens his contract up)

 

Spurs have done well this window, looks like they'll have
Sessegnon
Lo celso
Ndombele
Possibly Dybala pending negotiations

Ain't worried about utds business they're still no worry imo

Gooners have gone a bit mad it seems but
Pepe
Saliba
Tierney
Luiz
Will deffo make them more dangerous.

Chavs are an unknown under lampard, could go well til Xmas them bomb who knows.

City added Rodri and cancelo, lost kompany which could tell hopefully over the season, still think they'll come 1st tho tbh.

Brewster and the rest of you youngsters plus Lallana and ox naby and Shak need to smash it when their chances come this season, I have faith they will
