Summer Transfer Window 2017

[orly]

In many ways I'd like to think that you are GOT's very own Easter story, being sent down by the Pontious Pilot BAWK snakes that infect this land and then rising to forgive us for all our sins and call out melts for the sake of humanity.

Only to die again after carrying the weight of the sins.

It's a brutal but obliquely true metaphor that you are using here.

You know I didn't even see the Judas kiss coming this time. I refreshed the page and KAPOW, I had given up GOT for Lent.

These snakes, do you know if they are forced in to wearing clothes and taken photos of surreptitiously?

*goes off to investigate

Van Dijk
Keane
Sigurdsson

If we could sign these three then I would be very pleased, confident that we will buy two of them

siggurdson has to be one of the priorities and i think we'd be the best move for him on the flip side. I much prefer him behind the striker than on the left though, but we don't really play that way so i wouldn't be at all surprised if we bought him and then never got the best out of him. At least we'd be an actual threat from set plays though, his are nigh on perfect. We've done alright scoring from set plays tbh, but our corners are utter turn most of the time so i have no idea how that's happened.

We knoweth the serpents that smite this land dear orly but out of the goodness of your heart you choose to let them remain anonymous. I can only hope that the forum acknowledges it's debt to you and allows you to stride forward and stamp on these snakes.

if we're looking purely at the premier league, but he plays for bloody burnley who are constantly having to defend and was a united reject, when they kept much more patience with absolute trash like johnny evans and phill jones instead. Not writing him off, i just think we could attract much better for less from abroad. We already have williams, jagielka, mori and to an extent holgate who are acclimatised to the english game. I think keane would be an ok signing for a team in 7th and are not really going to go higher than 7th with signings like that, we'll see. I just think hes stood out more because of where he plays but yeah, i haven't really watch much of them. Why would i, tbh? ha

Yeah fair comments, i think he is streets ahead of our current defenders though. Also i think you could class Schneiderlin and Pogba as united rejects; doesn't mean they're bad players haha! I think we will stick with the theme of bringing in solid premier league players who buy into Koeman's philosophy. I think he would be a really good signing for us

Sigurdsson is a top player, would love us to go out and sign all three i mentioned!

not having a go at him for being a united reject, just the fact united were happy to let him go, whilst persisting with jones and evans for much longer in that position. Then again, they did think pogba was worthy of a world record fee, so they're currently there to be laughed at

One aspect of Schmeichel I really like is that he is a stroppy so-and-so, speaks his mind. We need more of this type of character, ones with a will to win and who will gee up the other players. We are are currently too nice to play against.

I disagree, I thought we've not took shiz off anyone as highlighted by some acts of snidery and referee harassment in the last two games.

 

[Hogwild]

Waaay to early too be discussing plausible deals

Plausible deniability then....?

No, I know what you mean, and you are correct.

WRD saying that both Keane and Schmeichel are done.

Careful now. His own words: "Don't take both of these as gospel as there is plenty of time to mess them up"

Heard a couple of things over the last few days. As someone else has said above, I've heard that Keane is done. I mentioned in the the last window that we wanted him.

Also that Schmeichel is also done.

Again - Don't take both of these as gospel as there is plenty of time to mess them up, but my understanding is that they will both join in the summer.
