Summer 2018 Transfer Window

[mightymoyes]

I saw Stoke a lot last season, Ndiaye looked good. He’d do well for us.

Echo saying we have no interest in him at present

For me Catcher, Drinkwater is nowt but a journeyman who got very, very lucky in that rather fortunate-that-the-rest-were-bobbin-for-one-season Leicester side that somehow won the Premier League.

For me, he's exactly the type of player we should be avoiding like the plague.

I can't honesty speak about the lad at Stoke other than to say that they stunk the league out last year and he was part of that stink - make of that what you wish

Even though we've not got European competition to offer, we've attracted a player from Barcelona, so Stoke relegation players and Chelsea misfits should in no way be on our agenda... unless the Chelsea misfits are named Hazard, Willian, or Pedro.

Thats all fair on Drinkwater, he is a good passer of the ball but always seems quite one paced. What did you think of Gibson when he was at Manchester United? I always had him down as a one paced lad, injury prone with a good passing range. If it's a loan it could be worse, but my concern is we are shifting from what looked a fairly sensible plan. It's one thing to do that if a player too good to turn down becomes available, but Drinkwater may not be that.

The Stoke fans I've seen rave over Ndiaye. He looks very similar to Gana though. For me I'd rather see us go for a left field younger name. Even if it means Gana stays 12 months while the lad gets the pace of the league.

Didn’t they play down the Richarlison transfer?

 

[Manx Blue]

7 days left in the window.

Could be frantic around the PL.

 

[mightymoyes]

Didn’t they play down the Richarlison transfer?

Probably, they're useless

 

[BlueStevie35]

Didn’t they play down the Richarlison transfer?

They've played down almost every rumor this summer, unless it's related to the spawn

 

[davek]

Could you also not say a 38 game season equalizes irregularities of individual results and recency means it’s a better measuring stick?

I dont follow.

You're asking the wrong guy about Darron Gibson Catcher...
I always thought he was a total waste of a wage and absolutely nowt but a journeyman. He abused and wasted whatever God-given talent he ever had.

I'll give him one credit though... the night he scored to beat City, I was living and working in Khartoum and caught the game on a very dodgy BBC radio link... it was about 2am when he scored and my yelling woke up the entire apartment block, I was a rather unpopular chap for a couple of days lollollollollol

You're entitled to your view mate, hence why I asked. I see Drinkwater and him as similar types of players. Probably how one views Gibson will be how they view Drinkwater.

There will certainly be a pressure which is that loans appear quite risk free.

I think there's actually a chance Drinkwater will stay in London, West Ham are sniffing around taking him on loan if Chelsea are agreeable.

That means it's on

I don't massively want him mate and would be happy to see him go to West Ham. If he comes on loan I'll probably be of the view it's not the worst bit of business either. Not too bothered either way, but happy to see him go elsewhere really.

We've had all this crushing nonsense before and it grew rather tiresome and boring, Mod Central Office is suggesting it's dropped.

The people do enjoy a good CRUSHING tho.

We always give the people what they want.

Take that back to Mod Central Office.

 

[TheBigIguana]

If it is down to Drinkwater Schneiderlin and NDiaye in midfield I'm going for NDiaye
