Summer Transfer Window - Credible Rumours Only Please

[blueblue]

There have been regular whispers about Janujag and Everton either permanently but usually on a loan. I find it surprising that people are so lukewarm about him.
He is more than a year younger than Stones and nearly two years younger than Barkley and they are forgiven for everything because of their age.
I doubt Utd would sell him, but if Deulofeu were not to come, janujaj would be a good second.

What's become of us?

He was only like 19/20 yrs old + with the form we were in most of that season, not many youngsters without first team footy would of been able to walk into r team then!

Fair point, and Sevilla won the Europa League and the player that kept him out has been signed by Barcalona.

....really, strange thing to say if you want money for him. Bit of a Ratner gaff.

Sounds a bit like he's so upset he's acting irrationally.

Very different cases mate, Macheda got given an opportunity like so many Manchester youngsters were given over the years, especially under Fergie. late in a game kicked a ripper goal in injury time to win them the game and then in his second game he scored in under a minute. That got him so talked about and gained so many fans, high ratings and fans based on two moments, he did next to nothing from them then on. That was because he was getting rated by some many fans but they've only seen him perform those two moments.

Janujaz has being talked up at Manchesters Academy since he joined. He had a real break out season the season before last, has gotten has revived so many rave reviews from highly rated former coaches and has been earnt multiple Belgium caps. He has shown many more glimpses than Macheda did.

This'll be an unpopular statement but he's at the same level as Del and holds a similar potential yet everyones going bonkers got Del but everyone's against Janujaz, they've both got very similar pros and cons, if people are wanting to sign Del then there's no way you can argue about Junuzaj.

I like them both although not sure of the wisdom of signing both. Could either win us the league or get us relegated - or anything in between.

Can't stand it tbh. Maybe it is because of years of experience thinking that something might happen which never does. At least not until the last week of the window.

What about Cleverly lol

....if you read the article, the Coach is quite keen to keep him and suggest a new, improved contract should be on the table. If West Ham are also in they might hold the aces, London is always an attraction and is only a short train to Paris.

500 posts, not a single quote or link to anything close to remotely legit.

Thread bans incoming to about 50 of you.

On the issue of the two threads. I don't think it's been divided correctly.

There should be one for any transfer rumour even the rubbish ones.

And then one to talk about the rumour. It would also be good if the mods set it up so it automatically cross posted everything from the main transfer rumour thread to the waffle one.

Orrrrrrrrrrrr

People could stop posting rubbish in this thread and use the other thread for the rubbish rumours and talk about them in there.

...I think the thread demarcation is fine, indeed I think it's welcome.

But who decides whats a rubbish rumour plus it doesn't actually solve the problem.

People don't want to wade through 20 pages of people talking about Deulofeu just because there might be one relevant post about of a new transfer.

My way would probably limit the rumour thread down to a mere couple of pages in total. You could leave it for weeks if you wanted without missing anything.

It might however cause a drop in page views for GOT.

Think I preferred the jarg rumors over the endless discussions on what constitutes jargness in a rumor.

Thats the point, if at some point theres something relevant, it should come in here, but in reality, theres been nothing of ANY relevance since this thread was created and yet here we are 34 pages long.

I did request some sort of "set rules" and accepted links, im sure when people have time it will be published, in the meantime, whats the issue with just going in the other thread and discussing prospects?

That would be perfect.
