Transfer Rumours Summer '23 Transfer Thread

Why would any decent player with a choice of clubs to go to want to come here with the style of football on offer. That is apart from picking up the spondoolies of course. The system doesn't work and the manager is too stubborn to change it. If he can get the results playing his way, fair enough. Saturday is a massive game in terms of looking for an entertaining, committed performance more than anything else. The clock is ticking.

 

Does he have more movement than statue at Madame Tussauds

 

Exactly

If McCann was playing a certain way and refusing to accept we dont have the players or the coaches to impliment it he would be getting pelters. Rosenior has had enough time in the job to work this out but keeps setting up players to fail. No wonder some of them dont like him. As I have said before he was not popular at Derby and it sounds like City players are working him out too. Too much chat.

If he was expecting better players in the summer he needs to come out and say it otherwise he is going to take the fall for a lack of money. I'm more inclined to think he just cant attract the right players in from what I have heard which makes sense.

 

So he should throw his boss under the bus?

 

Isn't that what got Barmby sacked and the reason Bruce left?

 

He’s supposedly been getting some of his first choices.. held out all summer for Connolly who looks like he needs 2 pre seasons.

Such focus goes on giving Rosenior full control of transfers and I’m unsure what his track record thus far has done to show he can be trusted.

 

Why are we not going all out on a ball playing keeper? It seems it’s the most essential piece of the puzzle and we haven’t tried signing one in the past 2 windows.

 

If you think Rosenior has full control of transfers then that seems a bit misguided.

 

You’ll have to ask Ehab.

 

I don’t think he has, nor do I think he should have it.

 

Saw it mentioned that we're in for Ryan Allsop at Cardiff - don't know how true it is, it was a Cardiff fan who said it, but looks like he was at Derby when Rosenior was there - so could be some truth in it?

 

Can't be, all the players at Derby hated him.

 

Would have to assume the deal was going to be too expensive and something changed? Connolly probably had few other options on the table.

 

Then claimed he was always in his thinking…

 

Tetteh leaving was the change. Rosenior basically stated that explicitly.

 

If any of last summer's signings want to leave, I'd have no problem with it. Honestly couldn't care less. I certainly wouldn't be pandering to any of them

 

He didn’t hold out for Connolly, I think he’s struggling to attract people, which is why he went back for Connolly

 

Fair point

 

They all say that to make the player feel he was his first choice.
