Transfer Rumours Summer 2022 Transfer Window

Sheldon says we’ll insist on Glover working his notice. Indicates that we’re happy with the plan that the recruitment team have for the summer. I know someone on here said that’s pointless but someone that high on our recruitment team will have been working to build relationships with agents and players already (everyone taps up, after all). Interested to see his replacement come in. They have the summer to find one.

 

We likely already have identified targets and opened negotiations, the last thing we need is Leicester coming in and gazumping us. Seems the sensible move from us.

 

The business ends of the pitch, goalkeeper & striker are the big priorities for me. I don’t think I can face another season with McCarthy as number 1 and I don’t see Armstrong cutting it upfront.

Then a number 10, ideally a decent ball carrier with pace who can at least draw some fouls for JWP.

finally a centre back, if we can sell bednarek to finance it. Someone with a bit of leadership and organization a la Fonte

Other notable outs, Forster, Redmond, Walcott, Djenepo, Long.

still fewer ins than outs to trim the squad and wage bill, so I think it’s very much achievable

 

Any player that can play in multiple positions, needs to stay. Redmond can play on the left, right, behind, behind the striker, or as striker himself. Daft to sell him in my opinion. Additionally I don't think he is the type to cause a problem if he isn't starting. Seems content, like Jack Stephens, to play half or less than half the games, and always puts in a committed performance.

 

God id love it if the new owners spent some money. Absolutely love it

 

Can we get Jesus now? Please? Pretty please?

 

Eriksen? Might be out of our reach now but he’s definitely proven himself & as I understand isn’t under contract for next season yet. Might fit SportRep? Theo swap?

 

I did worry a bit that he might be a problem, as he was apparently a bit moody about not being in first team contention at Everton. Kid needs to chill a bit (or go out on loan).

 

He probably should have kept fit over the summer or trained with Everton then (assuming they would have let him)

When you are 17 and rock up with no pre season under your belt and expect to get premier league minutes someone needs to have a word and give you a bit of a shake. You’d have to be only level of Rooney or Ronaldo at that age to get away with that. And play in an attacking position as well I expect

 

Depends what he was told when signing as well. Remember he was highly thought of and said he left to get more playing time

 

I imagine he is probably more frustrated because he saw how many opportunities tino got.

 

17 years old and crying about not getting first team minutes. The entitled twat!

 

I think he was probably promised more game time which is why he chose us over Everton. It didn't help that his 1 start he was awful.

Hopefully he has a strong preseason and can be our back up left back next season whilst Tino is out and we are 1 down at full back.

Joe Gomez may be available.

 

This is turning into quite a saga now.

 

VERY bad move keeping Mcarthy and Forster.
