January Transfer Thread 2017

[Connor]

The exact words were: Local radio (Wolverhampton) just said Baggies striker Berahino thought to be on his way to Everton. Don't shoot the messenger

Bolasie was £22 million
Lookman was £7 million
Williams was £10 million
Schneiderlin was £22 million
EDIT - Belfodil fee looks to actually be £3 million

So you can take £20 million from you figures lolz

But carry on with the moaning and negative spin!!

Some fans are never happy, its a joke really!!!

We want to spend, but then moan when we do.

The new signings have probabky been our best players this season.

Even the keeper started well and saved us loads of points.

All those correct fees you are quoting are incorrect. They are what we have initially paid but all of those deals include add ons. Yes we may never have to pay those add ons (most likely will for Schneiderlein and Williams due to the number of games they are likely to play for us) but they are still included in any official transfer business.

And if you check my post history I have been nothing but supportive of Koeman, Moshiri, Schneiderlein and Bolasie so im one poster you cant accuse of moaning.

Im merely pointing out for £93 million we haven't really got much to show for it other than Gueye and Schneiderlein at this point. Steklenburg is crap, Williams is OK but nothing more, Bolasie sadly has the possibility of being an expensive mistake purely down to an unforseen terrible injury. Hence why Lookman and Belfodil deals are vital in ensuring we have spent largely well.

 

[boris]

Just seen that. Supposedly the Befodil deal may only be 4m...

That seems far more realistic based on all the reports.

 

[Eggs]

Getting confused now. Who have we apparently signed for $4m, when is was said it was like £11m?

.....differing reports coming out of Belgium/Holland, originally 10m Euros but more lately 4m Euros for Belfodil.

 

[BlueToff]

Oh, also @Hangleton - Tuttosport saying Del has agreed a loan to Milan.

Nothing more concrete yet though.

Best bet, see what Terreur says about it, he's normally close to the mark

...second favourites on Sky Bet to sign John Terry.

...dare I ask, would anyone take him?

I would take him to mind my car.

Not really a mistake though, is it? Getting injured 6 months after arriving has nothing to do with his value at the time. I get where you are coming from, but to term it a mistake suggests it was in some way foreseeable.

This boy is Magic.

...but don't introduce him to Mrs Anton.

...lots of youngsters being linked, it must now be seen as as a strategy. His dad was useful considering he had no pace.

Ye, but only if Wayne Bridge and Anton Ferdinand were part of the deal

 

[ijjysmith]

Things are really happening then it seems. As I have been a bit busy at work, could somebody please do a summary of the last day or so? I feel I may have missed something. @ijjysmith

Beckham set to sign.

 

[Hangleton]

Niasse to Hull. Looks to go through.

Rumours of Clev to Watford.

That's Hull and Watford relegated then.
