Transfer Rumours Summer 2024 transfer thread

I agree that people seek simple narratives and that we were ****e.

But, that was a big game and how a manager gets his team to perform in the big games is, in my opinion, a valid measure of his ability (one of many).

This measure is one that the great managers manage to meet.

If we had taken an early lead at Plymouth, who knows, that could have seriously unsettled WBA.

 

That's what I was saying around the start of this month when Rosenior was BS'ing about "building on the great foundation .blah blah". Usual suspects weren't having it! The lightness of the squad and the scale of the rebuild is alarming.
ps I'm not saying it's all down to him

 

In fairness some parallels to the Barnsley away under Bruce. Having said that I was far more pissed off with the **** show at Plymouth.

 

Wonder if Youan at Hibs would be a good replacement for Philogene. 4 goals and 8 assists this year in Scotland. Their fans say he’s inconsistent though. He’s either a world-beater or goes through the motions.

 

Read somewhere we are after shankland from hearts...rangers and the green ****e looking too I hear

 

Half the Championship are after him, but Acun has apparently taken notice of him.

We wouldn’t outdo anything Celtic could offer, but what a signing he would be.

I also rate both Duk and Miovski at Aberdeen.

 

Duk’s had a poor season this year compared to last and been in and out the side. Miovski is good but I think he’ll go to Rangers.

 

Apparently we're after James McConnell on loan from Liverpool.

I wonder if LR was influential in persuading Liverpool that City was a good place to nurture their young talent?

 

According to a City Youtuber Oliver Norwood, is on the radar!! Someone pull that plug!

 

Depends if you believed Liams turn of events. According to him, players only wanted to come because of him and his philosophy.

 

Liam did suggest that a lot.

At the time, it could have appeared he was simply bigging up the club, the team etc. presenting our case on the media stage whilst celebrating his approach. Which worked as many fans/members of the media accepted this and amplified it further as a truth.

But now with the revelations since the sacking, it seems he was actually speaking directly to the board, through the media, to try and shore up his job and gain leverage in the power struggle.

 

Agreed. Giles is your attacking fullback whereas Jacob’s is your defensive fullback.

 

.

 

I agree.


The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.

 

If we sold Greaves does that go to was

Wonder how many of these would come back after playing for hjm?

 

From his agent !

 

He has but he's quite similar to Delap in his style of play. Maolida is also available from Hertha Berlin (was on loan at Hibs).

 

Duk is gash

 

He wasn't great this season to be fair, but he is a good player.
