Transfer Rumours Summer Transfer window

8-9 more signings, i imagine least 10+ players will be sold

 

Superb that

wonder if he knows who the players with pl experience are

 

From what he said, if Petrovic ends up going elsewhere it's partly his fault!

Broke it far earlier than the club would have wanted was the implication.

 

I think it was Chelsea side also

 

Likely Chelsea trying to provoke more acceptable offers from other clubs that haven't come.

 

I guess if he is privy to as much as he makes out then he'd be able to piece it together from conversations he's having with people.

For example he said he has a source in Talbi's camp (his agent no doubt) and mentioned that KLD had spoken directly to Talbi to sell the club to him, you'd assume the plans for how many we're looking to bring in and what sort of calibre we're targeting would form part of that.

 

It’s the Optimus time for a move.

 

Also sounded like Talbi knows he will have competition too

 

I'll be sad to see Jay Matete leave but I think he won't quite make in our champion's league midfield.

 

Yeah definitely

 

Am I right in thinking that he said a lot of this stuff is embargoed in the UK? If so, I didn't know that - I wonder if he means officially (through the courts or whatever the due process would be) or whether it's just the way the game works over here, unwritten rule/gentlemens' agreement etc.

 

Convinced myself the other winger will be a top loan, so he can have a development season, based on nout this like just my hungover boredom, welcome to Sunderland Oscar Bobb

 

He said he did but he can't 'reveal' their names yet.

 

Your just counting the players that were out on loan last season

Not all will be sold loads will be loans and can see about 5 that made the squad last season being sold

 

I'll feel better when a second source is as confident - maybe an update from the Guardian or the Mirror as they were ones who were positive about it earlier

 

Sounds like Petrovic is a matter of time then

glad to hear we are targeting 8-9 more incomings. It was needed and I’m glad the club aren’t ****ing around

 

I can see what but Sacha is very very very reliable

 

I still wouldn't count your chickens - still nothing to stop another club (say Bournemouth) coming in and meeting Chelsea's demands and being equally as appealing to Petrovic.

 

I know, this one's just too important for me
