Summer 2018 Transfer Window

Mori was sold for about 17 million, we paid 9 million, little bit more than tiny weeny don't you think?

He wasn’t sold for about £17m though

 

[Eggs]

Yeah, saw that...just find it a bit of a strange one...suppose he's done it for game time but unusual to say the least choosing them above us and Utd if reports are true

..I suspect interest from us and United has wained in recent months. I know the lad looks very promising and there has been a fall out with his club but he only played one first team game for Sheffield Wednesday in 16/17 season. If there was Premier League interest I think he’d have gone for a big signing fee and Premier League wages.

..there’s a lot of conjecture about the signing fee, I doubt anybody in the media truly knows but the Liverpool Echo suggests we might eventually make a small profit.

 

[Nymzee]

Any top class 15-year olds out there to help us breach the Top 4?

 

[CielosGrises]

Small profit not including the wages he's been paid for the time he's been with us. Once Rooney moves on I guess they might be a bit happier with the bank balance.

 

[CielosGrises]

Ignoring opinions on players ability and conjecture on their future value, which have been the worst value for money recently.

Klaasen is top because he's barely played, Sandro second for the same reason, then Bolasie partly due to injury, Besic has barely played, Mirallas barely played recently but has contributed in the past.

Whatever your opinion on Keane, Williams, Rooney, Niasse, Schneiderlin - at least they've played some sort of football.

Would absolutely love Vida.

The Belgian club are owned by Leicesters owners so I'm sure Leicester are involved somewhere ,not sure if the player goes abroad if there is a development fee involved.

We absolutely did not get £17m mate.

 

[ijjysmith]

But that wold involve me watching MLS again though?!?!

..ah, that’s a good piece of information.

No to Gibson.

Was just having a look at Middlesbrough fans' reaction on Twitter to the news and they're made up to get £15m - said he's been band average and Ayala is their best defender.

 

[buskwhi2]

On one had if we could get Gibson in and give them Besic plus whatever we received for Mori and we’d have arguably improved our defensive options.

On the other hand we could sell Besic for £5m and Brands could add that to the Mori money and get someone better than Gibson in.

I think the latter is the better option.

 

[Kinky Koeman]

Just been having a chat with Mr Esk on twitter, our wage bill is "projected" to be around 140m currently.

140m, I honestly feel sick.

It’s criminal how we’ve been run.

I don’t suspect Gibson will be a player we target. Going on the little I’ve seen he’s not mobile enough to play in an attacking team. Assuming we will be an attacking team under Silva.
