Summer Transfer Window - Credible Rumours Only Please

[Mashtray]

RM:

“Our objective was to secure Tom and Gerard as quickly as we could and I’m really pleased this is exactly what we’ve done.

“Having done this now, we will have more time over the remainder of the window to carry on strengthening our squad, which is already strong, and we will use this time ahead of us well.”

Who the hell is Elis?

Gone a bit quiet on that one so it's only just vaguely credible.

It's been mentioned a couple of times in the last fortnight but http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...g-transfer-Honduras-striker-Alberth-Elis.html was the last real national to run with it

Maybe they can only work on one at a time

Great business so far. Keep up the good work.

2 Signings done before the window opens, just over £4M spent, shaping up to be a good summer.

That's the way to do it Bobby.

It's obvious that they where practically done deals before the window even opened. Probably have been for a while. Now it gets a bit trickier especially since those two fees will have spoilt us.

Shaqiri is more credible than that one.

I watched him play in the U20 World Cup. Honduras lost 3-0 to Fiji (!!!). He didn't stand out, but was one of the forwards that couldn't get anything on target. It was comical. It was like a competition on who could miss most spectacularly. Meanwhile Fiji seemed to have three shots, and scored three.

Would I be wrong in assuming from Roberto's words those two were the objective, and therefore there's nothing else planned as of yet?

you'd be wrong mate, he just said he was happy getting those two in early and we'll keep strengthening our squad.

To me that comes across as Cleverly and Del were both already in the works (no surprises) and were set out players.

Sounds from here it's more of a case of Roberto knows the positions we need to improve and will work to improve those positions rather than already having one set target.

Nice one.

That article is utter tripe.

"
Everton fairytale has us hooked - shame it's built on £50m loan sham of Lukaku, Barry and Deulofeu (so Wenger's right to moan)

• Everton's good season has been built around loan players such as Romelu Lukaku, Gareth Barry and Gerard Deulofeu
• The Toffees have done nothing wrong but loan system is flawed
• Lukaku, Barry and Deulofeu would cost more than £50m
• Arsene Wenger is correct to complain about the system

To be honest, i'd much rather more thought be put into each and every signing and get it done one at a time, than be like that shower across the park who pick/buy anything that shines!
