Transfer Rumours Summer Transfer window

[Scout73]

… but is he any good? Game changer now or work In progress?

Quality player, improves the team straight away and got massive upside

I dont doubt our ambition, but i doubt Nixon

The Guardian wrote this earlier in the week:

Fulham, Leeds and Sunderland are all scrambling to sign Strasbourg’s Senegalese midfielder Habib Diarra, while the two newly promoted sides in that trio of clubs are also interested in signing Celtic’s American centre-back Cameron Carter-Vickers. Millwall defender Japhet Tanganga is also wanted by Sunderland, who will have to fight off interest from Millwall’s bitter rivals Crystal Palace if they are to secure his signature.

I'm fully taken a back like.

I'm a big happy clapper but I never expected us to be THIS ambitious

Fingers crossed it’s genuine, remaining a bit dubious until someone more concrete confirms is best course of action I think

 

[Scout73]

I do wonder if we are spending big on the priority signings that we will then use the loan market (2x players) and then cheaper options to build the squad depth

I would agree if it came out on Sunday morning…

Nixon is a gobshite who makes stuff up and acts all cryptic to make it sound like he knows what hes talking about.

Occasionally he gets stuff right and when he does, he's specific.

There's no way he's completely made that up to the extent he's come up with a fee.

So I believe it.

Whilst also being shocked to my core that we're bidding "up to" £35m for anyone.

He any good?

4/1 on 365 to be the highest finishing promoted side.


Top half 28 and 33s across wills, 365 etc

Fancy the 4/1

I could be wrong about the loans, is it not 2 DOMESTIC loans. But 5 in total?

Agree, but another thing that takes me back (i was an avid nixon watcher a year or so ago till i seen the light) the ****er is usually cryptic and vague as ****.

So him being extremly specfic is throwing me haha

 

[williebeams]

big pot like isn't it

imagine if KLD has told speakman and new DOF it's not just about survival

Better to buy 7 £5m players and focus on development, bank the rest.

Can't risk faltering with PSR.

Im not sure, if the latest on vanat is true because we need a few positions as priority before a striker

Oh yeah without a doubt, fingers crossed though mate

I think it's 2 loans, not 100% but sure someone on here confirmed it

I wouldn't want anymore than 2 loans tbh

Fair

Diarra is the perfect Rigg role upgrade for me

[The Legendary Tongue]

Probably one of my favourite players I watched last year

Same ere n av nivver erd of im

 

[Lucky19672]

Pretty sure Leeds have PSR restrictions that don't impact us. Which would explain them struggling with the amount needed.

 

[LD19SAFC]

Not only will we stay up well get top ten

Steady on

Nothing about this management team has ever been about survival or mediocrity. They want to build something. Whether it’s the right strategy now to accelerate to the degree they seem to be is debatable but they’ve never been about just being average.

 

[TheBronzeBummer]

Right well add Diarra to Lauriente, Bulka and Vanat.
