Summer Transfer Window 2019

[Connor]

Their bare minimum is £17m but they are still asking for £40m and will take the best offer

They’re not asking for 40 million when they’ve instructed all the Spanish papers to report that they want at least 20 million.

That’s not how the game works.

 

[ijjysmith]

hahahaha come on lad, literally every one of them is currently loaned out atm because we don't want them, not exactly breaking news!

I hate every single one of them.

 

[ijjysmith]

Gomes will have a large say in this
If he tells Barca it’s Everton or nobody then Everton will sign him

True. But say Spurs want him, he probably go there.

 

[Barnfred 55]

Scored 13 goals in his career

He's 21 and played half the games DCL has.

Most of his 28 appearances for RBL this season have been from the bench. He has played the equivalent in minutes of 13 games and has 8 goals and 2 assists to his name. He has 23 in 28 at International youth level. The reason he hasn't played more often for RBL is that he has Timo Werner in front of him.

He's the sort of player Brands and Silva have said we are going after. If they do go for him I'll be happy. He may not get us into top 4 next season but he's certainly one for the future.

We don't sign players so I wouldn't worry.

 

[Charro]

Lads, we're not signing nine players.

We've already got a massive squad and we aren't shifting all the deadwood.

Plus I'd like to think players like Valsic, Williams, Dowell and Gibson will be part of the first team next year

 

[Barnfred 55]

Another goal for Ziyech today

We should have gone in for him 3 years ago. I was all over it at the time. Think Ajax paid £10m for him. Will cost £40m now.

 

[Nymzee]

Where did the 9 come from? We don’t even need 9 players.

To be fair we could all agree on 23 on the current squad who we would like sold

Has weasel hunting season been declared open? It's my favouritest part of the footballing calender.

@orly and Natalie Sawyer with a couple of crossbows stood on Sky Sports News, as orly gives it his best Jim White Impression and declares the "Season Open!"

 

[Barnfred 55]

....a fair few links with him this morning.

Similar type of player to Augustin from RBL. Think it's fair to say it's the type of striker (different to DCL), and the age profile, that we're looking for.

He also falls into the category Brands discussed of players at the Top 6 clubs that can’t get a game.

 

[Barnfred 55]

I'd take a punt depending on the price.

Of the 2 I'd rather go for Augustin. Think he has a bit more about him. Depends on the price I suppose.

He’d be cheaper.

 

[Barnfred 55]

He’d be cheaper.

You would expect so given the home grown premium. That's not a problem we have at the moment given the number of young English players taking up the squad places.

 

[Ash Woods]

With links to Jean-Kevin Augustin and David Neres... Lookman going and Vlasic coming home how does the strongest Front 4 look?

Starting XI
Augustin
Richarlison
Bernard
Sigurdsson

Backup
Vlasic - can’t imagine he’d be happy not being starting XI

DCL - can’t imagine he’d drop his head too much and would rotate regularly

Neres - can’t imagine he would sign ahead of other big european clubs to sit on a bench maybe he is intended to be in front of Bernard? I personally would not be a fan of that and would switch out Richarlison

I don’t see how it works? Lozano instead of Neres could maybe work but again i don’t see Vlasic sitting back
