Summer 2018 Transfer Window

[Sinski]

Whatever we recoup

Limitless.

Somewhere in the middle is probably correct.

 

[applecrumble]

Anyone got a clue on our budget?

Whatever we recoup - Ron's Compo - Sams compo - Watfords Comp - Silva and Brands welcome bung - Danny rose Budget = about 60,000?

Wouldn’t it be just ace to have one player who every now and then just did something that made you stop dead in your tracks and admire the skill. Just one.

Lookman will be that man, assuming he stays.

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

I think that’s why we all want him to come back so much. If Marcel Marco can get him to stay that would be better than any 15M risk signing.

If that happened I would have more faith in Stekelenberg than some random 19 year old who may be a good prospect but would not be ready. Goalie isn't a position for youth for me. It's not really a position where you can afford to learn on the job.

We could get an emergency loan if worst came to worst.

As I said, not against getting another one, I just don't think its a major need.

A-- If Pickford got injured would you be comfortable playing Stekelenburg for a large amount of games?

B-- These keepers arent unproven...capped fully and highly regarded.

He isn't atrocious at all - he's a very decent Premier League striker.

If we're after a forward who can play anywhere across the line and will have no trouble settling into the league, plus is in the prime years of his career, then we could do a lot worse.

We could do a lot better than cementing 7th place.

Without risk theres no reward

Quick question from a lurker - As Brands seems to have an good understanding of the South American market, does anyone know what the rules are regarding signing young talent from there? IIRC there are issues with work permits for non-europeans that dont seem to exist for other European clubs which is why Chelsea, for example, have that wierd link up with that Belgian club so they can park players there

75% of full internationals played in past 12months
OR
Transfer fee in top 25% of premier league
OR
Special dispensation

How many would you get in? I think another big churn of players may not be useful too. We may need a few more too for the squad, it depends who goes first. But I see those as the minimum requirements though

Realistically 3 starters CB / LB / CM.

3 more who would become starters over the season.

You'd rage @Zatara

They would be a stepping stone. I think if we had european games it would make these types easier to attract.

We should put a bid in, we’ve got nothing Toulouse.

Beautiful.

Yeh I mean I'd rather shag Jennifer Lawrence than my bird, but hey ho, life innit

Just ask Jen for a date...set your goals higher.

Torriera and Diop are the exact players we should be targeting. The next gen of top top players.

Precisely.

If PSV were interested I wonder could we ask their DOF could we have a look at his file on this young goalkeeper.

Have i brainwashed you

 

[CairnsToffee]

Skysports saying Adama Traore could be available for £15m I'd take a punt on him for that price

Think they mean 1.5 million, he is woeful, head down, run, fall over!

He's so fast and strong! No way we get him

Wasn’t it quoted that Brands has been given 100 million plus sales???

 

[MichiganToffee-NSNO]

We should use some of that money to hire a better manager.

 

[Goat]

Think we can take that with a pinch of salt.

This window will be about cutting the squad in terms of numbers, I can see there being a few quality additions rather than loads of average additions and a load of yoots.
