Transfer Rumours 2016/17 City Transfer Thread

[Chazz Rheinhold]

That's how all good scouting is done.

Dirty boy.

 

[Hull Life]

Think it's time someone fire up a game of FM to see who is out there.

 

[Tony Angelino]

Bid accepted for Patrick Roberts, whoever the **** he is. To be recalled from a 2 year (!) loan in no mans land.

On loan at Celtic from man city
Think I vaguley remember him at Fulham

Who's made the bid? Us? He was supposed to be the next big thing when he was at Fulham. Great on FM too!

 

[Blaknamberblood]

According to Wiki, he is 19yrs old, played 17 times for Celtic in 2016, scored 7 goals, has represented England at every level upto U19, scoring 6 goals for them, and is a wopping 5`51/2", one for the development squad i wager

Yes that's what I remember about him at Fulham, I'm assuming it's us but I'm just going off what hat said

That's not very sporting hat, you gave us something positive to talk about

Predictable.

Nothing wrong with it. That's how 99.9% of premier league transfer rumours are started. It was no more or less credible than every other rumour that's been posted on this thread.

 

[BOJACKHCAFCMAN]

There are lots of names I think would improve us.

GK - Thomas Kraft (Hertha Berlin)
CB - Grant Hanley (Blackburn)
CM - Aron Gunnarsson (Cardiff)
AM - Kostas Fortounis (Olympiacos)
ST - Arkadiusz Milik (Ajax)

There's 5, probably cost a total of about £35m, but well worth it.

Players worth a punt though is difficult. Gudmunsson at Charlton if he was cheap. I'd try to take Tiago Ilori from Liverpool but he's barely got any Premier League experiment and would be a risk. If Ryan Gauld is available from Sporting he'd be pretty good, but as with most continental players, he's probably got a daft release clause. I'd look at loaning from European giants or picking off players on the fringes of their first team, like Jese at Real Madrid or Munir El Haddadi at Barcelona which would give us flair and pace out wide.

Thomas Kraft, would we need him really, the keeper situation is OK for me. Strikers from the Dutchie league can be a bit hit and miss in the Prem too

As opposed to our Germans trikes who are just a miss

 

[Spanner82]

i'd take a punt on Vincent Janssen from AZ Alkmaar to partner Abel

The keeper situation is ok, but it really could be better. I'm not so sure I'm happy for McGregor to be number 1 for the rest of the season.

You mean the Vincent Janssen that Spurs have had a £13m bid turned down for?....rather a big punt for a 21 year old

Bigger clubs than us are after him, including Spurs,

West Ham is trying to sign Gomez, that might be a club we could compete with trying to sign a player.

The West Ham offering 25m+ for players? I don't think so.

Gomez is only going for 14 mill last I saw. I suppose the Euros might have jacked his price up, it was 14 mill before the tournament started.

I'm just making the point that if we were in a bidding war with them they would win every time.
