Summer 2018 Transfer Window

[matchworks]

What a man he was.

Of his contract he said, "Why should I throw fifteen million Euro away when it is already mine? At the moment I signed it was in fact my money, my contract"; in the end, he only appeared 11 times during his four-year tenure, reportedly earning £40,000 a week during this period.

'This world is about money, so when you are offered those millions you take them. Few people will ever earn so many. I am one of the few fortunates who do. I may be one of the worst buys in the history of the Premiership but I don't care.

He flew from Luton to Amsterdam every day for training. After that Chelsea inserted a clause stipulating all players must live within a 30 minute drive of the training ground.

Everton's approach to transfers under Walsh

Roma's attacking options with Malcom:

Dzeko
Schick
Perotti
Under
Coric
Defrel
Pastore
Kluivert
El Shaaraway
Malcom

Now that my friends, is squad depth. Surely there's one of them that we could get, all would go straight into our squad.

We should tie Niasse down to a new 6 year contract.

Better to have loved and ended up with a bloated and overpaid squad than to never have loved at all...

No better to have a plan to work to and stick to it
True love will surely follow if you do this
Last year was like a night with a high end brass
Pleniy of GFE and PSE but no real love

Apparently Klaasen didn't fancy Turkey.

Who would?

I'm currently on holiday in Devon, and this talk of Malcom has hardly bowled me over.

my very first 'squeeze' was a girl called Fiona Malcolm. Funny, I haven't thought about her for years...thank you for bringing her to recall...nice girl

 

[Brisan123]

We should tie Niasse down to a new 6 year contract.

I agree to the first 5 words
The rest Nah

 

[deipnosophist]

Who would?

I of course understand we're talking about Turkey, the country, but as an aside, last Christmas I brined our turkey prior to cooking...highly recommend it for producing a lovely and moist roasted bird.

I agree to the first 5 words
The rest Nah

He deserves a contract for life just for saving our bacon last season

 

[ijjysmith]

Who would?

Yannick hopefully

 

[sageyefc]

ISIS making more signings than Everton, sort it out Brands.

Any chance they want bolasie on loan

 

[VentureBrosEFC]

If we truly are in for Malcom but Roma get him I hope we go for David Neres from Ajax.

 

[deipnosophist]

Not much news transfer-wise to sink our teeth into, but it's been a lovely traipse down memory lane regardless. Thanks to everyone who enabled said nostalgic ambulations.
7.10 am here fellas and it's been a pretty boring night's work so fantastic for me to visit GOT and find such enjoyable distraction. Bed time for me now though. Can't wait to wake up and find out what, if any, transfer actitvity there's been whilst I was sleeping...Golly, I do love the transfer window!!

Back in the day (80s), when one of the lads would hold on to a joint for too long we used to say 'hey man, don't bogart that joint"...I think there was a song that mentions it and Droopy (my best mate back then) borrowed the expression from that.

It was from the Cheech and Chong, Up in Smoke album ?
