Summer Transfer Window 2019

[Barnfred 55]

To carry on from this Man City were linked with Rodri since last season and only signed him this month.
He also had a release clause which presumably makes everything a hell of a lot easier.

People need to realise it’s not as simple as saying “hi here’s £40m to you and here’s £120,000 per week to you”.

Good point.

The thing is they are under no pressure from their fans. They've just done the domestic treble and would have, IMO, also won the Champions League but for a disallowed goal. They already have a fantastic team so they can afford to wait to bring in the players they have identified.

Everton, and Brands in particular, don't have that luxury.

Eh what now?
Is this a good thing or a bad thing? I know the name but can't place a reputation. ...

All biblical quotations and not much else.
A sensible chap

if we got Kean. Zuma and Zaha and Gbamin, we win the window full stop

Probably any window in the history of windows when you add Delph and Gomes on a perm.

We would win Scrabble but hardly the window

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

5 pm Thursday 8th mate.

Still need a right back regardless

That’s what you call moneyball.

I know one poster who will be happy we sold a 29 yr old and bought a 19 yr old for the same money.
Personally I think we will regret selling Gana

Due to the eyewatering sums involved these days it is akin to one of us buying a mansion.

Lots of entourages, agents involved.
Sponsors of the player have to have agreement too.

The insurance policies against injuries or behaviour outside of the field of play.

We are no longer dealing with footballers.
They are now individual brands working as a collective for another big business brand.

Selling grandpa Gana and signing Kean would be enough football-viagra to get Zat’s pork sword right through south east Asia.

Is Malcom really off to Zenit of all places? That's weird, I thought Russian clubs didn't have any money to pay more than what they did for Vlasic?

 

[Brisan123]

Sell to buy Dan.
Moshiri is skint!

Why do lads keep mentioning moshiri
Its not his money we are spending

€41m linked. Zenit are still a rich club thanks to Gazprom.

Remember the entourage with Ravenelli that time at GP ?
