Summer transfer window 2023

[Eggs]

How does one "eagerly look"....

With Simms sold cheap, DCL seemingly miles off being able to compete in a competitive game, Cannon likely off the Preston and Dobbin just finding his feet there are only two scenarios that are plausible with 2 weeks to kick off:

1. We have somebody lined up but have to shift people first so it'll be a late-in-the window transaction;
2. We're absolutely brassic and we'll be starting with Maupay for a good while.

Dyche's comments cover both scenarios IMO.

Buckle in Blues.

We’re at the eagerly looking stage now guys

Jesus Christ. We lose our main target and then scatter gun goes bang bang bang

What you're also starting to see is the effects FFP and the upcoming 70% wage to income ratio rule is having on the clubs outside the elite.

Player prices / wages are rising and rising yet sponsers/revenues for clubs outside of the scab 6 / Newcastle are not.

Something ultimately has to give. Villa are the only one spending and thats down to netting £100m for an academy player but they'll be very close to the limits if they dont get top 4 this season.

The rules either need to be relaxed or a flat out transfer/salary cap introduced across the board (although the Saudi's buying everyone will probably scare UEFA/PL attempting anything like that in fear all the top players will go).

What you will find is every penny coming in is going on the stadium

Genuinely baffled as to what his point is if he's listed Palace and West Ham

 

[PKwalnuts]

Didn't he get a bonus payment for keeping us up, plus 2 new players, should be a doddle keeping us up this year.
Mission accomplished.

Proper depressing this.

Says the last three years mate

Genuinely baffled as to what his point is if he's listed Palace and West Ham

He walking a tight line between knowing he's agreed to toe to club's line having agreed to be their yes man, and also coming across to the fans as a manager eager to bring in some quality players into the squad (while knowing it's not possible).

Is Sandro still on our books?
Or Moise Keano?

In all honesty the thing I'm looking forward to most about the coming season is the fact that it starts on the last day of my six weeks of radiotherapy treatment.

There are times in one's life when football is only a game.

I feel sorry for Dyche as it sounds like he was expecting some bodies in. We need a miracle from Dom or this will be a rough season

 

[Bailes550]

Our scouts must be absolute utter turd. Refuse to believe there isn’t talent in other lesser known leagues, which would suit us and not cost a fortune.

Absolute neglect once again. Should have had a number of options lined up
