MACCA75's latest activity

The closer we get to deadline day the far more likely we are to end up signing Coufal and Soucek for £10m over his value. I don’t understand where this idea that our top targets will become available later in the window has come from, when has it...

Not if the deal exceeds what we should be paying

Hammond negotiates the deals once Moyes et al sign off on making an offer. Kinnear has final approval on the financials of a deal. Two of the new four don’t join until September so this window is a first step on the path to how they want things...

This is what I’m talking about though, that’s not a valid question because it’s heavily weighted in one direction (waiting will end well, acting now won’t) when there’s no real evidence to support that idea. You might as well say ‘would you...

I am not having they’re in Europe as an excuse either.

If Forest want McAtee then it gives us a chance to show that we actually mean business. Lose out to a tinpot club like that and it looks very very bad.

Players that we didn’t have last season that will start in the first match - zero That is poor at this stage, whether you are zen about it or not.

Not getting worked up over the window isn’t weird. I would guess very few people on here are actually worked up over the window, in terms of it affecting their day to day life. I’d like us to sign loads of good players but I can’t influence it...

Pretty sure we signed maupay very late in the window so he’s probably not a great example to use. I think everyone acknowledges that it would be better to sign good players late than bad players early. This isn’t really cutting insight, despite...

Think was just the price so we had to really go in for him similar to delap/ barry situation. Just hope we can see quality come in, think once we see that will help us fans be more calm about the rest of the window Just hope if everton was to...

Of course, this is a football forum not a board meeting. Nothing that any of us say in here makes the slightest bit of difference to anything the club does, we all know that. Do you think you repeating that everyone is doing their best and we’re...

Those ludes you’re on must be good

That’s honestly such a bizarre take. Either pre-season results matter (they dont) in which case failing to beat Accrington Stanley is hugely concerning, or they do (they still don’t) in which case Moyes having won some in the past makes...

Was a bonkers signing tbh. Absolutely fine with these punts most years but this was half our budget in a year when we were clearly in a relegation fight. He might come good but looks a bit sub Zirkzee to me.

I also didnt watch the game, the result alone tells me it wasnt great.
