Summer transfer thread

Wonder if Neil brings Roberts back in to test that stand in LB? Or will he stick with SAS. Nice problems to have though.

 

can forget about hamza choudhury joined watford on loan

 

Be surprised if Brendan Rodgers sticks around there much longer

 

Great signing that mind. Going to be hard competing with clubs that have parachute payments over the coming years.

 

it was always going to be hard to compete with the bigger clubs, for this season at least.

It is however, more about smart recruitment for me and I think we’ll have a damn good go this year.

 

Seems alot of unrest atm , but they needed to shift the likes of these players out as the squad was to bloated

 

Doesn't sound a happy place according to this....

 

Grrr I want our new good players in...

Choudry and Broadhead were probably our targets, let's hope we have back-ups as good soon..

 

You can choose the easy option in life without it being a mental health thing.

I think it’s unfair to suggest people aren’t aware that mental health problems exist, or that they don’t take them seriously purely based on comments made following something our manager said, which alluded to him not fancying the move.

 

I agree with this assessment. I am fully aware of mental health issues and the impact it has however, that does not mean that I can not feel that NB clearly bottled the move here. He did. It was there for him. He didn't back himself to oust our current front 2. That is mentally weak in terms of competitive sport. Its also why the most resilient rise to the top, on the vast majority of times.

 

Have you heard if anything else is close mate?

 

My gut feel is that Rob Page has told him needs to be playing every week and scoring goals to have a chance of making the WC Squad. He wouldn't have started every week here

 

If he scores a lot he could make the Wales team, they're not exactly blessed ...

... unfortunately for him I can't see Wigan attacking too much.

 

Think thats why signing young players is great. As hopefully they continue to kick on as we progress

 

Watford will be 1st or 2nd for me. They're signing players to get promoted.

 

Don't know if it's already been said on here but the potential Fleetwood move for Jack Diamond is on loan. Perhaps we haven't given up on him yet but as Sunderland progress, is he always going to be one step behind?

 

Or kept on our books in case we are relegated?

 

Aren't you the optimist!

 

Watford have even put the geography in the article

 

Thats the way, think positive
