Transfer Rumours The Great Summer Splurge Transfer Window

Of course it's made it easier for the ****house clubs to rotate and basically take it easy in the group stage.

 

You'll have qualifying games

 

Don't forget Mitchell is all about spotting and developing youth, over marquee signings. So it will be an interesting summer window to see how the 2 approaches of immediate upgrades vs long term progress are balanced this summer. Especially when we should (based on various reports) have a tidy sum to spend.

Will be interesting to see how much pressure the owners put on seeing some instant success, over still remaining patient and building slowly but steadily for long term success.

 

Sauce?

 

Me. But looks like I was wrong.

In either case we should be aiming for first

 

....

 

You're such a defeatist. We should be aiming much higher than just 1st.

 

Darn. I knew people would see me as being negative.

 

Dibling would be stupid if he went to a "big" London club now considering he already left Chelsea because he didn't like living there plus he'd have to try to usurp Saka/Wanyeri at Arsenal, Bowen/Kudus at West Ham, Kukulevski/Brennan Johnson at Spurs & Neto/Palmer/Madueke and a ton of other FM wonderkids that have all been bought by Chelsea already. You'd think any young talent like Dibling would back himself to compete with Murphy to get game time at RW.

 

I believe he got home sick and he's from the South Coast, so this is why I can't see him picking the North East.

I heard that anyway, but maybe he just like myself doesn't like busy cities.

 

This

 

Chelsea are disgusting, mind. Well documented 'keeper issues', yet have two first choice keepers plus Petrovic and Kepa on loan. We've got John Ruddy on the bench.

 

Roland, hey, Roland!... 1 year contract extension confirmed for Lascelles.

 

This has got to be a ****ing pisstake. The ****er hasn’t played why on ****ing earth would we be keeping him around?

 

Nah, it's genuine. Extended until summer 2026.

Possibly so we can fetch a couple of million from that Turkish club that was interested pre-injury.

 

Nope, he’ll be limping around the training camp for another year.

 

Helped by Wilson.

 

Like a new signing. We said we needed a new RCB. Sorted. And still money left in the pot to spend. Amazing business.

 

this. He owes us and with a transfer fee we get something back.

 

I don't think he owes us anything, however I agree that this extension is likely to allow for a small fee
