Yeah I can't see it but the spine is so key so they might think it's worth having real quality strength and depth there

We will still spend about 125 million imo so if Guendouzi was available for 25 say we have a 100 million to go after a starting CB RM and then another CF option plus if we sign the GK we could still have 20 million left over for squad depth
think we might have even more then that to play with , all the talk about amad being out of reach at the start of the window now brings the question in to play .If man u wanted to sell now, we might actually have the pulling power that fans thought we didn't to pull it off
 
Diarra - linked by Nixon saying we are preparing a 30m bid and he’s lined up for a medical. L’Equipe have just said we have been trying to get him for days and now negotiations have begun and are moving forward

Bulka - Reported by Keith today that we are working on deal worth £18m

Lauriente - still the same with the MatteMoretto tweet the other day

Guendouzi - linked by RMC Sport
Great summary, im only up to your post cos it was date night last night and then watched glasto pissed so there was nee forums for me !
 
I'm sure hes last year of his contract, I think a deal could be made for less than 20

Yeah he is, that’s why they not asking double that.

Scores, assists. Runs past people all day.

Big thing with him is head doesn’t go down. Lots of wingers disappear if they have a poor couple of dribbles etc, Baka just goes again.

Don’t Magnus. Don’t do this to me.

Diarra on the yellow ticker on SSN now.

**** off man... This is already beyond my wildest dreams of transfer targets, you can't give me hope for Amad too, my heart can't take it!

BHH!

Can't wait for Romano's tweet....."Amad to Sunderland, 5 year contract here we go"
 
Maybe the Guendouzi link was just lazy journalism after seeing his comments on RLB. I know every possible signing is breaking new ground for us, but I find it difficult to imagine us spending £25m on a 3rd midfielder when we already have Neil and Rigg fighting for places. Cheaper options like Henderson, Miller or the lad from Switzerland feel like a more likely addition to me. We've still got another 5 or 6 positions to sign for after all.
Agreed. I wonder if Henderson and Miller from here would be sensible? Only another £7m or so of transfer commitment, but adds real potential, immeasurable experience and perhaps importantly increases the British core.

Especially if we're saving up for Amad <laugh>

I agree it sounds like good balance to me and I think we still want to develop Neil and Rigg. Bringing in Guendouzi probably makes them permanent back ups.

He's an excellent footballer though so would certainly be thrilled if we were to get him.
 
I know we go on about Romano with the ‘ambitious project’ crack but if we get Diarra, then there’s no doubt that other players will be looking at us as an attractive option. Could be the sort of deal that makes Bulkas mind up and then a domino effect starts.

Journos taking punts a few weeks ago with the likes of Tommy Doyle and Henderson, look to be way off the mark for what the hierarchy’s actual plans for us were this summer.
 
Really annoying me seeing the penny pinchers Sartori (me) and KLD not spending any money.

Shirt sponsor paid for Enzo
Jobe paid for Diarra
Watson paying for Bulka.

It's pathetic really, when will they spend!
People keep forgetting Clarke as well mate. £18m at the end of august, wasn’t reinvested in full at the time and goes into our PSR books this year.

You just had to go and mention Amad!!

What an exciting summer ahead
 
Yeah I try not to come across as negative, maybe more managing expectations when it's so easy to just say every new signing is perfect. I'm over the moon for diarra but if he develops under Regis which seems almost impossible not to do then we have one of the best young midfielders in Europe with one of the best youth midfielders in Europe behind him.
If what Guendouz said about Regis is true Chelsea will be paying 100m+ next summer
