Summer Transfer Window 2019

[BillBrasky]

Hes American, its a no from me.

Fair enough, but the one quality Americans excel at in this sport is showing passion and desire to win. Nobody has a bigger chip on their shoulder in football. Something these Euro queefs we employ have very little of. If you want a team that fights, a Yank or two isn’t a bad addition.

Hes American, its a no from me.

He's a fantastic player. I rate him more than Pulisic.

Woah woah the golden generation is just beginning! Give me Adams and weah and I’d be happy.

Call up Leipzig and offer to swap Lookman for Tyler Adams straight up this summer. Adams walked right into their starting lineup after moving from their MLS club, and was MOTM in his second Bundesliga start.

His mobility, work rate and vision are exactly what we need in 4-3-3.

Only 19 as well.

I see what you mean....

Stand down lads, no oil here.

Reckon Moshiri knows where some is

 

[BiggyRat]

Anyone but a Striker. We're conducting an experiment to see how long a team can last in the PL without one!

Can we offload these in summer?

GK: Stekelenburg
RB: Connolly/Coleman
LB: Robinson/Galloway/Garbutt
CB: Keane/Pennington
CM: Schneiderlin/Gana/McCarthy/Besic
AM: Sigurdsson/Dowell/Tarashaj
WF: Mirallas/Bolasie/Walcott
CF: Tosun/Niasse/Sandro

My guess is possibly £115mil there...

Keep Robinson Besic and Sandro the rest may leave

 

[originalgreaserbob]

I'm very very excited about the possibilities for this thread. The window, not so much.

....keep Sandro?

Schneiderlin £12mil
Gana £23mil
Besic £5mil
Sigurdsson £20mil
Dowell £12mil
Bolasie £5mil
Walcott £12mil
Tosun £15mil
Niasse £10mil

£129mil

Some pennies for the rest...

Id say my initial £115mil is achievable...?

 

[Nymzee]

Just wham names and numbers flying all over the shop in here.

 

[Andy G]

Coleman £10mil
Keane £15mil
Schneiderlin £12mil
Gana £23mil
Besic £5mil
Sigurdsson £20mil
Dowell £12mil
Bolasie £5mil
Walcott £12mil
Tosun £15mil
Niasse £10mil

£129mil

Some pennies for the rest...

Id say my initial £115mil is achievable...?

Here's my valuation based on age, ability, form, remaining length of contract, desire to win & what clubs are likely to offer.
Coleman £3m
Keane £8m
Schneiderlin £2m
Gana £15m
Besic £2.5m
Sigurdsson £10m
Dowell £2m
Bolasie £2.5m
Walcott Zilch
Tosun £5m
Niasse £5m

£55m
That should get us one decent striker, a large reduction in wages and a manager who knows how to coach the art of defence and attack.

Has a club ever sold 21 players in a single summer?

And then bought 10-15?

Seems an incredible, and frankly absurd, amount of business to do in 1 summer. Unless a load of players leave on free transfers.

It's be somewhere between 5-10 players out the door. And 3-5 players in the door.

No team can do all their business in 1 transfer window. It's going to take a while to sort out the squad and the mess that the managerial decision by Moshiri/Kenwright have cause. I reckon this summer and another summer window before we can think of a Top 6 challenge. That's even if things go well.
