Summer transfer thread

I seem to remember this being Alex Neil when Broadhead was coming back from injury but given that he had spells out when Johnson was here, it could well be that! My memorys not what it used to be but it was definitely about Broadhead so the point stands and I’m sticking by it

 

A decent couple of days for Everton after the Coady signing yesterday…

 

I remember that but took it the other way. I.e. that he wasnt match fit but would be graft for 30 mins for the cause. If it were the other way round no way would Alex Neil have been chasing him all summer for a perm deal in my opinion.

 

Midfielder.

Surely it’s strikers they need to go for. It’s only Rondon they have up front I think (given Calvert-Lewin is out for a couple of months).

 

They’re desperate for a forward or 2, definitely. Rondon is nowhere near good enough these days…

 

This must be a "careless whisper"

 

Was this the one where someone, can't recall if it was AN or not, that if Broady wasn't 100%, he would not play????

 

Haha I wish but I no nout

 

The bizarre thing is it was him not being fit to play that reduced his appearances and maybe prevented us getting automatic. Now he says he’s worried he may not play because of competition. Like a sulky teenager.

 

Nothing to say it’s us like but it would make sense.

Good player, imo.

 

Mag. No thanks.

 

Beat me too it by seconds

 

Blackpool are the team bidding for Barlaser

 

No mag bastards needed here.

 

If Broadhead has changed his mind down to competition it probably shows he isn't the confident player i thought he was and clearly he isn't the right signing for us. No doubt he has probably put an end to him ever signing for us.

 

Heard anything about our incomings?

 

I was very impressed with his distribution when we played them

 

Just that Broadhead was expected to sign yesterday but due to game time backed out, we definitely talking to Celtic regarding James McCarthy regarding a loan but haven’t heard anything else tbh

 

I would have loved him here mate and at the end of the day it's his decision and I wish him well and will be grateful to him because I honestly believe without him last season we would still be in league one.
We will never know how far negotiations were but I think AN was expecting him to sign . It may well have coincided with the result at the weekend and it is just a case of Wigan were interested, he's probably going to make more appearances , closer to home and we can't forget its a loan so he will still be getting the wage he's on at Everton that to me is a list of good reasons why he would pick Wigan over us.
I wasn't having a go at the lad just picking up on what AN said, that may be a bit of sour grapes on his part if he thought he had him in the bag because if we had those 3 strikers on the books IMHO we would have had the deadliest strike force in the league

 

Yeah mate, spot on. I was replying to you but also everyone else, so wasnt having a pop. It just seems he is being labelled a bottler on here when it could be much more likely other reasons. Unless Broadhead bitee back at Neil, which he is undoubtedly advised against, it remains one fellas theory, and probably some anger on his part, and maybe some playing to the crowd as well. We will never know for sure...
