Summer Transfer Window 2017

[Durham Toffee]

...interesting, this reckons there's an agreement that we can't bid for any Leicester targets until 12 months after Steve Walsh has left;

That would be some unique and frankly ridiculous agreement...

Linked with Trippier in a few rags this morning for £6 mil. Would be a great signing if we could get him for around that price!

Spurs might keep Trippier and punt Walker. I'd take him too but he'd be expensive.

Levy wont be selling to EFC

I agree that it would, however it talks about 'designated' targets so you'd presume there was a defined and relatively small list of key players.

No chance. Walker has been stand-out this season and just recently got a new deal.

That being said, I don't think they'll sell Trippier.

Basically we're in dire need a whole new defensive-line. Seamus Coleman out for at least 8 months, Baines is getting slower and incapable of taking players on these days, Jags is getting on a fair bit and I don't think Funes-Mori CB-style doesn't suit the EPL.

Weird innit. We've still got the league's fourth best defence yet they're all crap, apparently

(btw, I do agree in principle. A GK, CB, LB needed at the bare minimum).

Sunderland's former head of recruitment? Oh dear

Hopefully, otherwise they'd just say, "We wanted him first. And him..." all the time.

Look he signed a midfielder from one of the worst premier league sides in history and he has been our player of the year. I have faith in Walsh and Sunderland are a car crash club and have been for years.

Something intrinsically wrong with the way that club is run.

A lot of my mates are Mackems, and they are convinced their club is rotten from the inside out.

They can never substantiate anything tangible, but it's so endemic now, I'm inclined to agree.

The ex sunderland guy could be very good.i think everton had scouted some great players over the years but most ended up at chelsea eg keeper with scrumhat .How did the verton scouts feel.sunderland guy might be great at finding talent signing them another thing.ie money.

Intersting talk of conflict with the yank and thats why he left academy

Considering how little he plays, trippier was awesome yesterday. Created five chances and tirelessly ran back and forth.

I'm in
