Summer Transfer Window 2019

Sadly our British friends have found the Brexit inside of them and are trying to crush the foreigners in their midst

Nah, just the utter wham you all spout.

It's massively important. United and Chelsea both have clowns for managers and Arsenal have two strikers, no money and no one else. It's early but this looks like the most open race for fourth in years. We can't start slow.

If the tide is running in our favor, I've no doubt we'll be the last to know or failing that, to acknowledge it on this forum. Who knew that we'd be this wedded to Digne and the bearded dreamboat at this point twelve months ago? And Bernard - what's the degree of difference in the January Bernard and the Bernard of April and May?

Before we ever drill down on sexy new transfers, what if:
1/ Pickford gets sorted. Really sorted.
2/ We nab Zouma for reals.
3/ The Big Mick Kegger (boss footballer on, actual mensch off - may be turning into my fav blue) stays healthy and maintains consistency. He can get even better, y'know.
4/ Richarlison comes back from serious international action for a year that gets him the attention he warrants. How old is he, again?
5/ Lookman decides that assists are nice, too.
6/ Bernard is healthy all year and gets the occasional rest that he needs to maintain his consistency. He's kind of like the ball in a pinball machine out there, don't forget. Wear. Tear. That's where we need reliable depth. Then we see el mago do his magic like Pienaar to Baines to Pienaar to Baines to goal. Bernard to Digne to Bernard to Digne to Richarlison to goal. How's that sound? *those who can't handle this level of positivity can just check out here, btw...*
7/ Silva and Brands grow in their jobs and build on the positives both bring to this club. How old is Silva, again?
8/ Gomes keeps being Gomes.

That's going to influence the future of blue footy as much or more than the promise of the next crop of transfers will in 2019-20. Down the road, the transfers will bloom or wilt, but the factors listed above are going to determine what happens in 2019-20.

Spouting bs like this has no place on this thread. Have a word with yourself.

I think you’re confusing them with Davek. He’s the main sceptic on this forum.

Ooh does he do readings or just fortune telling?

 

[Lelouch]

Why are we just laughing at CB's who are under 6ft now?

I want more outgoings

Franco Baresi was 5’9. Probably the best centre half of all time.

Was more a sweeper really.

 

[Jamo Martinez]

A quick Google says he's not 5'8"

He's actually 5 metres 80 cm tall

 

[Death]

Well I never new that

I was on K when I wrote. Spooky.

 

[MikeH72]

Maybe. His numbers are still relative, though.

Regardless, RBL would beat on us pretty good I would think.

They lost to CELTIC last season so I doubt that.

 

[bullybeef]

Paul Pogba anyone?

I'm saying we should try to actually make them useful members of our team first. Then if they want to leave to go to United or Chelsea or whoever do it. Selling our young players to CSKA Moscow isn't ideal.

They have to be good enough to become useful to the team - I'm not convinced Vlasic would've played much for us last season, and I think Lookman should've been given more game time but Marco obviously wasn't impressed.

Why wouldnt we want to make enough profit from players who don’t contribute to be able to buy players like zouma and Gomes who will? It’s a strange attitude.

Paul Pogba anyone?

No. He’s a knob.
