Transfer Rumours Summer Transfer window

Aye funnily enough

 

Guessing DCL was what BBC radio Totalsport was on about

 

My understanding is we must name a 25 man premier league squad. U21 players, like Rigg, are not included in that, so technically we can have a squad bigger than 25 able to play.

Of the 25 8 must be homegrown. Our current homegrown list I reckon is as follows.

Patto
Neil
Cirkin
Ballard
ONien
Moore
Alese
Browne
Hjelde
Huggins
Roberts
Anderson

Of that 12 as it stands 8 need to be listed in our 25 man squad. I think. You would think Patto, Ballard, ONien, Moore would be certainties at this stage? Neil and Cirkin too if they stay. So we have 6. We need to name 2 more unless we buy. Roberts and Hjelde would make sense. If we sell Neil it starts to look more difficult and any replacement would surely need to be homegrown? Same for if Cirkin goes?

 

can add Mundle to your list. His years at Spurs pre-Belgium will contribute to homegrown

 

Im pleased its not Calvert Lewin like. Massive wages and will miss a boat load of games.

 

May not have to move house either. He can travel to training in Leeds from his current house.

 

It was just a suggested line up mate, id have him starting personally

 

seen an article last week saying he didn't want to come to us, but was apparently quoted as saying he wanted a "further up the table" club. Blokes a walking sicknote and I would hate to think we were paying him a fortune to miss chunks of the season. Add to that the Geography, probably doesn't move house, much like Jackie boy going to Everton.

 

Not sure, just saw it on instagram posted by their club

 

This! Talented boy,no doubt,but he's a big risk.

 

Congrats to Leeds. You'll see their doctors in Bentleys soon enough with all the overtime. Happy to lose this race.

 

Spot on marra! I'd like to think he wasn't a target.

 

I can believe that we wanted DCL, think it would've been before Guiu signed though. I think he's alright but at the wages he reportedly wants there's better out there. Not going to lose sleep over him going to Leeds.

 

Yep. Forgot him.

 

Personality and performance of a veteran for #Kouadio: against #ManchesterUnited, he showed he’s already mature enough for top-level football. And
@SunderlandAFC
is keeping tabs on him.

 

I'm looking forward to seeing Guiu. We've been worrying about goals on here for a while,but I've a Chelsea mate who really rates him. If we can get him the service.....he thinks we have a gem. Ok,we'll see.

 

seems like a one for the 21s you'd imagine

 

Overseas over 21s.

Roefs
Alderete
Xhaka
Mandava
Masuaka
Hume
Le Fee
Adingra
Isidor

9 plus our homegrown 8. That makes up to 7 more berths in our 25 man squad. Then we have our u21s in additon

Diarra
Rigg
Talbi
Guiu
Mayenda
Sadiki

I dont believe we sign another 7 and bloat the genuine 1st team squad so much. But I think it perhaps shows the need to shop in the English market if we can. May add some sense to why we went for Calvert Lewin (if we did).

 

Wouldn't be surprising but could be a backup CB option I suppose if we like him. Could also be nothing. We are meant to be monitoring Comuzzo (as everyone is) who he replaced.
