Transfer Rumour Memphis Depay

[TheFinnFan]

Haha

 

[malcson]

To me this has the appearance of us needing to shed wages to sign. Delofeu sold = Depay bought, Delofeu loaned = Depay loan. This issue being no-one seems prepared to buy Del and Man Utd are not willing to loan Depay.

Nous allons encore.

We go again.

pardon?

THT on Twitter will shortly be along to say something along the lines of "£35m spent on signings so far and still some blues losing their heads".

I have a theory about this that I will be expanding on soon in greater depth

 

[Blue Magic]

I camembert this nonsense any longer!

These French puns are driving me in Seine...

 

[ToffeeTim]

where in France is that mate

Other than the fact that I had 20 quid on this, I won't be too bothered if he goes to France. He definitely has talent but if we're shipping out deulofeu I'd rather us bring in a winger who's less of a gamble and more guaranteed to deliver.

Kind of like Bolasie; sure people moaned about the fee but he was premier league proven and immediately slotted in and started making goals happen.

Can't Brie arsed anymore always missing our targets.

I'm gonna get me Cote

Huge shame to be missing out on Memphis. I don't get how we could be going from bidding £18m to suddenly withdrawing?

Hopefully it's because of other signings in the pipeline.

Maybe we were never really interested or maybe we still are interested?

I like esk a lot and his koeman shout won me a lot of dosh. But either his info on this is guesswork, from differing sources or just from bad sources, or the club's transfer strategy is worryingly spontaneous. I sincerely hope it's not the latter.

Player was interested in a move. Koeman previously and publicly said he was interested. Hopefully there is a better target lined up.

Yeah esk said similar about 30 mins after the echo did

I think the myth of The Esk has finally been exposed. Seems to have some insight into the broader plans and ambitions of the club but is on a woeful run on specific transfer deals.
