Summer Transfer Window 2019

[nsno-chris]

Is anyone surprised
Look at bolasie, he cut his own loan spell short without permission from the club. Who the hell inserted that clause

It should never have been an option to buy, it should have been you must buy.

Teams are taking the players, taking a year off the contract and sending them back with a lower transfer value.

Its just a news gathering website. Takes from all news sources, good and bad and lists them. Not actually a news outlet in itself

we tend to ignore just about every single news report though...

 

[Bungle]

Pretty sure your mum told me it’s an option to buy not obligation to buy.

@ijjysmith you are spouting rubbish out of your month, I never said that, quote it.

Some absolutely world class bantz here from the puppy muncher.

Not sure @ijjysmith is likely to recover from this.

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Can't wait to welcome back Sandro, Besic, Mirallas, Niasse and Bolasie in two months.

Then lumbered with McCarthy, Tosun, Walcott, Stekelenberg, Schneiderlin, Pennington, Garbutt, Galloway et al.

No doubt Jagielka will be offered a new contract n'all.

Absolutely shocking. I genuinely feel we'll only be able to find buyers for about a third of those players, most likely Besic, McCarthy, Pennington and Galloway.

Seeing as the money has dried up and most of our expensive high earners won't have buyers, it's going to be a very frustrating transfer window.

Brands is in the building you don't need to worry, The cleansing process won't all happen in one window.

Considering we need:

ST
RW
RB
CM
CM
CB
GK (backup)

We should be giving Baines a 1 year extension. Makes sense to spend the budget on the above rather than on a back up to Digne when we have one who could do a job for another season when called upon.

 

[The Penny Blue]

He's wonderful. Can play anywhere, really. Awesome in the air, tough as nails, great athlete, etc. Backup at either back, especially on the right. Probably best in central midfield, but that's frankly what we need. US player will have an inflated transfer fee as a result, but if you want to tap into the US market and you aren't playing 75M for Pulisic, him or Tyler Adams is the next best thing.

Tyler Adams by the way is the next Naby Keita. His athleticism is off the charts. His intelligence is high as well - not sure his first touch and skill level is quite there, but he's terrific.

they wont get relegated, they are 9 points clear. But maybe they will get dragged into the relegation playoff spot fight. And odds are always stacked for the Bundesliga team to survivve that.

Not sure what to think of McKennie, he's been hugely hyped due to being an American in the Bundesliga, but I haven't seen much to suggest he's anything beyond a half decent young player. But he has been playing on a struggling team, and mostly for a coach who looked more and more out of his depth as the season went on. And he's been played out of position a lot. I remain to be convinced. But he is only 20! But as of right now, he'd be a squad player you take a punt on, not a player who would strengthen a first 11.

I agree with both of you that he has been played largely out of position but he has played well in whatever position when he is called upon to play in. I do believe he is best in the central mid position playing both the defensive and box to box roll equally as well. I definitely can see Shalke being in the relegation playoff spot though at the end of the season especially without a player as vital to the team as Mckinnie.

His age is definitely his greatest virtue and playing just under 60 games in the top tier of a top 5 league all while 20 and younger is INSANE.

I really dont see us looking for a right back this summer.
And to be honest i dont see it as that much of a concern or a priority.

Ignoring the countless matches teams consciously targeted us down that side to great effect?

After sorting the left side, I was of the opinion that we need a whole new right side. However it looks as though Richarlison could play there, interchanging with Bernard with Lookman and Walcott (hope he leaves tho) as backup.

We still 100% need a RB though as Coleman has deteriorated since his injury.

Imo a RB is a top priority along with a striker

 

[TyphooToffee]

Linked with cheap tat yet again. The whole point of moshiri was to bring in decent players and decent players cost a lot of money.

What happened to going for the likes of koulibaly and "50m is monopoly money".
Going back to the days of buying unproven and hoping they come good like when under Moyes.

It's what Brands is good at
