Transfer Window Thread

[mill]

Behave lad, the fee is double what we were led to believe from all sources and fans know money is tight. You nor I know if that additional £4.5 mill seriously effects us getting another deal or two over the line. So if they're not melts for worrying.

I don't believe for one min it's anywhere near £9.5m.

There are a number of reasons it makes sense to report an inflated figure.

Lennon is in Liverpool and has agreed terms.

Like lennon, good player and hard worker - but seriously not high on position priority we have enough wingers. unless, could it finally be he is replacing McGeady?!!?

My feeling too.

Can't see arsenal selling Chamberlain, if so we should be in there

We can only have mirrallas and del, mcgeady is useless and Lennon also brings the best out of coleman

Julian ???

It's probably counting a Champion's League winning clause of an additional £4mil like

Seems the BBC are trying to sell Lukaku for us

That criticism is a bit daft, isn't it?

I'm not flapping over the fee, but it does seem quite a lot.

We do have limited funds. I've no idea how much we have, but it does affect our overall transfer pot.

So go easy on people complaining about it.

Tim Vickery would have you believe that he'll be our 'Coates 2.0'... and it does seem a lot of money... but there is simply no way that Martinez has prioritised getting him over the 'creative' player, IMO.

I think that this is a little indication that we do *have* money (the board aren't that stupid to disclose the fee, otherwise) - whether we can get a deal over the line is another thing.

 

[Moomin]

have Sky started pushing the 'one defender in, one defender out at Everton' tosh yet?

Not yet, but they have discussing Charlie Austin and by the looks of it using his FM stats.

It's like the day today.

 

[Tramps_mate]

That Ogbonna cost around the same and no was complaining about the price then and he looks absolutely woeful.

Agree. I thought this. Close call that for us.. pheeeew

 

[Stuartisitc1878]

can't judge the lad i haven't seen him play and he may turn out to be an absolute gem but that's 10m nearly on a backup CB (assuming the board don't have a sudden change of heart re Stones). That 10m could have been spent on player that would have improved our starting 11.

 

[Dithering Dougie]

What's this rumour of a £6m loan for De Gea?

 

[wiggum23]

If we sign Lennon does that indicate no number 10 coming in, with Mirralas maybe playing there?

I'm happy with Lennon but a number 10 was vital really. Still think Kev could do a good job there though

 

[sageyefc]

So anything on this fabled playmaker
