Summer 2018 Transfer Window

[msb]

We've had some dreadful signings in the past that went on to be quite useful.....

Weir, Stubbs, Carsley, Gravesen all spring to mind. Universally greeted as crap signings, turned out different.

Edit: I forgot Kev Campbell too.

 

[Raino85]

Lanzini
Loftus Cheek
Leko

The triple L is currently my summer hit list. We need a center half and left back, haven't decided on them yet, Hoedt is a strong front runner reminds me of Alderweireld, also a fan of Gibson at Boro. Something to be said for Craig Dawson at WBA, bifgger fish i think will be in for Jonny Evans.

I also would like Zaha but see him also going to bigger fish, the time there was last summer as i was banging on about and we have Walcott now, while Lookman and Vlasic need a pathway to develop.

Nice to see you shopping all around Europe Steve

 

[Raino85]

Hoedt is a terrible defender by the way.

You are getting confused because southampton had Alderweirald then Van Dijk & now Hoedt, expecting him to be the "next" one of them.
He was poor at lazio and has been terrible this season, dropped from the dutch squad also
If he reminds me of anyone, its probably Funes Mori, but Funes Mori is better in the air

That’s always worked well for us! lol

To be honest I don’t watch as much of the foreign leagues as people pretend to on here.

Champions league is about the height of it for me and the odd highlight show, I might watch an odd match if we are linked with a player.

Whose the foreign gems that would bump the above mate, please don’t mention horses that have already bolted, realistically?

Imagine this scenario, Brands and Fonseca come in, first few weeks:

Outs:
- Rooney - MLS. No arsed about a fee just the £160k a week saved in wages
- Williams - £2m to a Huddersfield or a promoted team, £70k wages
- Funes Mori - starts for Argentina. We could easily get £15m+ for him
- Bolasie - back to Crystal Palace - £10-12m
- Mirallas - anywhere £8m
- Besic - Middlesboro - £10m
- Schneiderlin - £22m West Ham or someone

Maybe £70-80m raised there. I would keep Jags, Niasse, Klassan and Sandro for various reasons. The last 2 might thrive under a new manager.

Good evening mein frandel to you too

 

[Dymak]

Interesting reading about Raiola supposedly falling out with United, and him pushing Kluivert towards Everton as revenge.

http://metro.co.uk/2018/05/10/mino-...rt-everton-falling-manchester-united-7535137/

I wonder if Ajax would accept a part-exchange with Klaassen moving back to them?

I’d go for my muppet list
GK: Ospina/Ochae
LB: Bernat (Bayern)
CB: Bjorn Engles, Tah
Wide: Lorzano, Bailey, Brandt
Creative: Meyer, Mooy, Zeyiech

Good evening mein frandel to you too

Good Eve Van Orly DerFrandel, a tiring season almost coming to an end, I will be glad to take a little break before the scouting work begins again with the festival of football that is the World cup starts.

Sadly your list has some actual quality footballers, such as Bailey, Tah, Lorzano and Meyer, so I can assure you we wont be signing those.

Outs:
- Rooney - MLS. No arsed about a fee just the £160k a week saved in wages
- Williams - £2m to a Huddersfield or a promoted team, £70k wages
- Funes Mori - starts for Argentina. We could easily get £15m+ for him
- Bolasie - back to Crystal Palace - £10-12m
- Mirallas - anywhere £8m
- Besic - Middlesboro - £10m
- Schneiderlin - £22m West Ham or someone

Maybe £70-80m raised there. I would keep Jags, Niasse, Klassan and Sandro for various reasons. The last 2 might thrive under a new manager.

*turns off Football Manager

Firstly would not keep Jags, Sandro or Klassen, would like to keep Mori but the rest can go.
