Summer Transfer Window 2017

Okaka isn't my shout mate

Pro-Okaka coming here, anyway.

Chelski buying Lorente, nip in for a loan on Michy...

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Pro-Okaka coming here, anyway.

I am mate yes, not ashamed to admit it either, and I think he'll justify my stance

 

[billyblue80]

Okaka looks more like a prop in rugby union than a frontline striker.

 

[windymiller]

Oh mate, that's just lazy, you're better than that

These are the strikers you like, no? When you remember who they are, anyway.

 

[Thomasc]

I've remembered him ever since he did us last season mate

The fact he has such an unusual surname helped

I just didn't think we'd be looking at him, but now we potentially are it does make sense from a stylistic perspective

Last week Berahino, this week Okaka. You are on a roll, I'll give you that

Find a post in the past, oh I don't know, 4 years where I've sincerely said we should sign Leigh Griffiths and haven't said it as a joke

I said we should sign him in the Moyes days when we had no money

Again, it's lazy mate "HaHa, you said we should sign Leigh Griffiths once"

If that's your A material then we're all in trouble

And I don't know what that first Okaka post is supposed to prove. I heard the name, recognised it, said out loud that it was the guy I remembered doing us, double checked, it was. It doesn't prove your point one iota

How do people tell if private jets are coming to a certain airport? Lfc fans have been tracking a plane today from Bournemouth but I don't understand how.

 

[billyblue80]

One of Dzeko, Slimani, Zahore or Lorente is who I would accept....The rest of the realistic targets mooted are garbage.

It's your main man Koeman looking at Okaka mate, I didn't bring him up in here

 

[MACCA75]

I see no reason to panic at such an early stage

Koeman's job has always been to steady the ship after Martinez and then build a solid foundation for his successor to kick on with

If we do crack that illusive top 6 it likely won't be on Koeman's watch, but he'll lay the table for the manager that does

I'm both patient and optimistic, and considering Walsh's track records of getting the absolute most from the absolute least, I'm not writing Okaka off just yet

The thing with Walsh though - Leicester winning the league was a once in a lifetime freak perfect storm. Kante started that season playing left wing. Ranieri changed both full backs after a couple of games. Mahrez had the season of his life and journeymen like Morgan and Huth seemed like mountains. It was a whirlwind of self confidence, team spirit and pure luck. How much Walsh actually contributed, I'm not sure.

Hmm red herring this, it is the mirror as well, large pinch of salt for this rumour.

 

[Tin-Tin]

According to a Sheff Wed ITK, that George Hirst kid who we were bidding for last summer, has refused a deal and will be leaving them before thursday. Another poster mentioned Leicester but surely we would be back in for him, he is very highly rated.

I'll be interested to see your reaction if we are indeed in for him now you've tied your colours to the mast

Thus far you've backed Koeman on every signing, this might test your loyalty

If you type Mikey_Fitzgerald and Griffiths into the search engine you get the outpouring of love one normally gets at the funeral of a beloved grandparent. I was only messing about with the Leigh Griffiths stuff until you made me gaze into the vaults. You may not want him at Everton but that's only so you can keep him close by.
