Other clubs summer transfers 2023

[perth_blue]

Spurs offer "in excess of" £50m for both Barnes and Maddison from Leicester. I think it could get done around £60m honestly.

That would be amazing business if so.
Richy would be fuming more so.
Unless they are planning on moving Son on.

HI everyone, massive Evertonian here.

As much as I hate them, buying Alexis, sorry Mac Callister, from Brighton was a brilliant bit of business.

I have looked at his stats, and he looks a steal for the tiny amount of money we, sorry they, paid for him.

Here is how he registered on the ball for Brighton last season.

Kyle Walker to Bayern

Interesting one

Kyle Walker to Bayern

To me Walker is one of the most underrated players of the last decade. However he's 33 now and relies on pace a lot so I can't really see why this would make sense for Bayern. They also have Davies who basically does exactly what Walker does already just on the other side. Weird.

He's said he's no slower now than 10 years ago.

He's not. But we've seen how aging works before and it's going to happen eventually.

He's said he's no slower now than 10 years ago.

And I'd believe it. When we played City at home, he saved them at least twice by somehow getting right across the pitch and tackling as the last man.

Ridiculously fast and his ability to read the game is top-notch too. Yes age isn't probably on his side, but like with Gündogan it feels a pretty risky strategy.

However, City will have the money to reinvest and he probably doesn't fit in perfectly to Pep's new mad strategy of having hardly any defenders.

 

[Nymzee]

Not really, if he's no slower at 33 than 23 he's not suddenly going to turn into Keane for the last 2-3 years of his career is he. I know you magically believe everyone turns 30 wakes up and can't run anymore though.

I feel pretty confident saying that at some point Kyle Walker will not be as fast! I'm willing to bet on it and everything.

So this Summer then? Since you don't understand why they'd sign him this Summer to be their starter.

No I don't think his legs will go between now and now

So what you on about then? He's quite clearly not a long-term purchase is he.

I'm a big Arteta fan, but can't get my head around the potential signing of Havertz, he's an absolute nothing player
