Transfer Rumours 2016/17 City Transfer Thread

So they are all going to hang around until everything is ready to announce all four?

Seems like it.

Mightn't be Syd v Canada, but it looks like we have the makings of an argument to get the 400 pages. Go for it lads !!! Handbags at 3 paces

Well the story had been we have brought in 0 players - so we announce a signing and it would be 'they have finally made a signing and it's the unproven will Keane' or 'big changes at Hull - 4 in at once'.

Marshal

 

[Tiger Barmy]

OK. I don't see any important advantage in announcing them all at once.

Saves more time ....

Yes. If they are now employed by the club, they will do as they are told.

PR is effectively a load of bollocks and anybody who has the will to look into the story will see it for what it is. In this fast paced obsession with Twitter updates many people suck up the PR and let it shape their opinion.

Makes a big splash and statement of intent. Much better done today though as it'll be lost in the rush tomorrow?

Amazing how many people fall for it though.

Having not signed anyone all window, announcing four at once makes a great deal of sense.

The thing is that as you said we are top heavy with CM's however if Livermore continues being as talented a CB as he has been so far then that solves the short term CB problem which leaves a space in CM.

We are not top heavy with CM, they will all bring different options.
Clucas - defensive cover, left footed for balance if playing 2 dm
Huddersfield - range of passing
Meyer - work rate and presses opponents
Mason - defensive steel, high work rate
livermore - box to box complete midfielder
Henriksen - very attack minded.

Bear in mind we will be playing 3 CM, we need 6 to have cover

 

[Party Hull!]

Four at once is flashy innit.

Too right too, after such a long barren spell.

I want us to purchase a French, Walloon, Luxembourgisch, west Swiss, Quebecois, or Martinique player and ask Duffen to provide his silky translation skills - a touch of class about that - adds a bit of culture to the event.

I know he's had troubles but isn't McGregor a fairly competent goalkeeper? Don't really see Marshall as much of an improvement.

I'd have thought you'd be looking to sign defenders.
