Summer Transfer Window 2019

Big fan of Rod Fanni MkII.

The name is hard to top

We dont need another CM, unless Gbamin is expected to play CB. At this point if this deal comes off, then we just need 2 more players, a winger, and CB/CM. If Silva has said CM then that means Gbamin must be the CB in place of Zouma etc.

Might be worth keeping tabs on Karamoko Dembele

Only 16 and has already played senior games for Celtic. Could be a genuine Wunderkin

Watched his first game against Hearts (I think), looks brilliant - oddly was up against another 16 year old tho

We are buying a lot of foreign players. I am just wondering if leaving the EU will have an impact in terms of players we can register. Obviously not this season but going forward.

I know the premier league are looking to increase the number of home grown players in a squad from 8 to 12 should we leave the EU.

I’m not against actual options that can mean we can play different ways. Another CM in the mould of Doucoure would definitely come in handy.

The Premier League would be mad to do so. They would be watering down the quality of their product by a large amount. It would cost them too much money.

Also, doubt the government would interfere too much, as the PL is likely to be one of the few 'British' products anyone in the rest of the world is likely to give a damn about post Brexit.

Still will fall under work rights and permits if the freedom of movement within the EU is knocked on the head.

Depends if the stipulation of "skilled workers" is used as an exception. Oh and will probably cause transfersl fees to shoot up quicker than they are.

Absolute disgrace from the fans. Surely he was aware of the culture out there before he joined. So sad that its still like that today, would have loved to see him at Everton.

Why has @Mathieubleucoyb used the ‘swearing’ emoji thing to this post? What is there for someone to disagree with? Have I missed something?

I’m sure Gbamin has only played about 20 games at CB and that was a couple of years ago. A big ask to drop him in at CB in prem league.

I think silva wants more quality in Centre mid. Last season he was virtually picking gana/Gomes/siggurdsson every game. He didn’t have the quality to play 433. With besic, McCarthy and Schneiderlin all going imo . And I don’t think he has the faith in Davies to play say 30 games.

So the link to Doucouré doesn’t surprise me. And I can see the 433 system being used quite a bit this season.

Oh no doubt he would come in handy, but we dont have the luxury and finances to sign 4 CMs in one window, considering needs elsewhere. We wont sign 4 in one window, at best we will sign 3 and 1 CB.

Not to mention the amount of tax these lads pay..

Sign them both

Watford after Ismailia Sarr for €35 mil if he’s any good we should hijack the bid to remind those bad yellow nonces that we are above them in the pecking order

Threaten to hijack the deal unless they let Doucoure come to us.

Mind you they are supposedly struggling to come up with the €35mill to get him so sellong Doucoure would help!

Zouma
Sangare
Neres

Top shelf stuff for the last few days.

 

[Bluewolf]

All very valid this.

The Maguire fee may have pushed the madness into even crazier times ahead.

Sheer lunacy at the prices being quoted now for run of the mill players.

Honestly believe there will be a summer transfer window in the not too soon future where the will be a record low for transfers. As teams just refuse to pay the prices people are asking for.
