Summer Transfer Window 2017

[Mosh Pit]

I want a signing every day like some kind of footballer advent calendar.

We'll get you a Man Utd one

We have lots of them, Morgan, Barkley, Klaassen, more will come.

Jordan Pickford likes this...

Have a heart, by this time next year we'd have 365 players. It would take @davek forever to call them all crap.

Why have the BBC suddenly started reporting moves that aren't finalised? Seems a bit gimmicky? Just wait til ink is on paper!

I hope the team can gel together for the start of the season. A lot of new faces are coming in, there's some work to do.

It's a good thing we are getting them in early before training camp starts!

You lot have just watched one U21 game haven't you. It's okay to admit it, I won't be cross. I'll be back here for the vault in a few years though. Memory like an elephant me.

Every game he played at the euros and the odd Bristol game but not many and I'm not impressed at all.

Tim Vickery was talking on Talk Sport about a Brazilian left back Everton have been scouting, anyone know about this?

Guilherme Arana.....

Rom isn't leaving, Chelsea won't pay 100 mil for him, it's not Chelsea style, yes they spend big but never huge, there not gonna give us 100 mil and we aren't selling for less, if we do we're stupid

Rom won't go for £100m though. I know we've put that price on his head but we will let him go for less in the end once we get our targets/replacements in.

I think he'll leave for around £70-80m plus.....

80s team never had one, if the overall quality is throughout the team I honestly don't think you need this playmaker type mate.

 

[bluestevon]

Emil Forsberg at Leipzig is the one I want.

Not a clue if it's even possible but we should at least bloody try.

He'd cost about 60m as Leipzig have no need for money mate.

He's also like most Leipzig and Monaco players likely highly overrated.

Both teams worked really well for one season and shocked everyone, strangely Leicester did the same, so a fair few of these mega hyped players will actually turn into drinkwater a Morgan types

I think this with a target man other than Lukaku

Could be, Sandro to me seems like he could play on the wing, but I guess it also depends on what he told him. Regardless, we need either one top class winger or target man, with Sandro taking the other spot.

Manny Fernandes

I still have sleepless nights we lost him. That period of him, Arteta and Pienaar was just about the best football I have ever seen us play as a supporter. Truly was a thing of beauty with visionary passing all over that midfield.. it was over all too quickly! Damn they were a good fit!

I'm guessing Siggy depends on Ross? Kinda wish we had just bought him last season.

I don't think so. Sigurdsson can play CM, No.10 (which we don't tend to play with under Koeman) and on the left and Koeman doesn't trust Barkley in CM, we don't play with a genuine No.10 in Koeman's preferred 4-3-3 system so Barkley won't play there and he's never played Barkley from the left either. Koeman started using Barkley wide right in a front three with the license to drift inside but I can see Koeman wanting Sigurdsson to play a similar role for us but on the left like he did well last season for Swansea.

If we get all our targets in this summer, I'm not so sure where Barkley gets in IF he stays? He won't get anywhere near CM with the options we now have or will have there and I think we will try and bring in either a proper winger or wide forward for the right so I can't see Barkley getting used out there on a regular basis either?!....
