Summer 2018 Transfer Window

Notice this Neil Jones fella crawling out the woodwork C.

Is he the guy from goal.com? If yes, so did I.

I thought that website was just a part-time/amateur operation, and not actually paying anyone to work for them.

Seems like they are currently making a push for something else.

Noticed it the other week MG, yes.

He was at the Echo and was essentially a better Kristian Walsh but he’s a red and knows nothing.

Broken record dave. How will silva do ?

We'll get a better style of play and slightly worse league placing this season. I'd take that over the utter muck served up by the last two bone heads and a 7th place finish.

 

[Zatara]

I'm putting it out there, if we sign Malcom then GOAL becomes the new Mole.

If Silva cant match Koeman, Unsy and Big Sam he needs punting.

 

[CRIMHEAD]

Because he was dreadful at Inter in a back four.

He was pretty good in a back four at Nice, doesn't appear that they played all that much back 5. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy that he can also play in a back 5, but he's a good defensive player from what I remember, so he's not some wing masquerading as a back. Frankly, all the guys we are rumoured to be after seem a bit more balanced - Digne, Kierney, Plattenhardt, etc.

 

[davek]

We may not be at the limit, but it’s clear we are intent on shifting more off the wage bill. The responsibility of the decisions being made has been handed to Brands. I’d say that in itself represents change.

Fair play to Moshiri for adjusting the responsibilities given the failures of last year.

Fair play to Moshiri for turning us into a basket case of a club.

 

[Slippin Jimmy]

Transfer deadline day 9th August, is that right

He may match them for league placing. He defo will surpass them in terms of attractive football played.

If that's the case I could give a flying one if we finished 9th rather than 7th or 8th.

 

[CRIMHEAD]

Tierney/Dalbert/Tigne...who do you want @CRIMHEAD

Kind of like Dalbert the best out of those 3, maybe Tierney next slightly over Digne as he is younger. Honestly, whichever one we can get the best deal on. Think all three would be significant upgrades over Baines.

Well as you know, im not arsed about pretty footy.

I only care about results.

I do too. But it;s not like we have the choice between pragmatic footy and CL places or pretty footy and 7th/8th/9th, is it?

May as well see some schilky fusschball if we're also rans....which we will be.

 

[Bluewolf]

You clearly know nothing about football if you honestly believe that about Sterling.

I'd suggest you think you know more then you actually do if you think stearling was good in this world cup.

Running around doesn't make you a good player and he didn't even do that well. He's good for city but not for England.

I’d agree somewhat but I think we will at least get around 55 points and I highly doubt that puts us 8th or 9th
