Summer Transfer Window 2019

[mccole]

We don’t deal with traction here Colers.

Just names.

I'll have my spy at the airport just as usual when we broke the Henry Onyekuru story 2 years ago but I feel with Brands in, he is cloak and dagger when it comes to transfers which I like.

 

[milks]

IN
Gomes

OUT
Kenny (Loan)
Dowell
Vlasic

These are the only transfers with traction so far

Is this a swap deal? Imagine Barca would be all over that

Regarding attacking output I actually find the telegraphs fantasy football to be a decent indicator as they give points for goals and key contributions (ie not direct assists). They give points for players who provide a key role in a goal - ‘assisting the assister’

Sig - 12 key contributions
Gueye - 8 (surprising)
Digne - 7
Bernard - 7
Richarlison- 5
Walcott - 5

Considering we didn’t get many from set pieces I’d say sigurdsson is clearly a key player in terms of productivity.

Bernard’s output isn’t too bad either considering he took time to settle and we didn’t take a lot of chances he created.

It’s clear we’re lacking a quality centre forward but we all know that anyway.

Edit / just checked the premier league website stats and according to that the myth that is sigurdsson was joint 11th in the league in terms of creating “big chances” - thats higher that Eriksen, Bernardo silva and Pogba to name a few.

Get rid of the Ormskirk Ozil

Get him a year loan in the top flight. Give him some value.

Some of the shouts in those early 07/08 days were ridiculous. I remember in particular ‘we wasted money on Yakubu we didn’t even need him’ after Anichebe had had one decent game against Kharkiv I think. Others included ‘Baines will never replace Lescott at leftback’ and ‘Pienaar looks like a weak Osman’ after his first game.

Thank god the fans don’t pick the team.

So he just looked like Osman then?

They must be after Martina as well seeing as he’s better apparently.

 

[Yarrgh]

Imagine if we had two strikers who could get twenty odd between them

Why not imagine two strikers who could get twenty odd each!

 

[Yarrgh]

If I were Kenny, I'd take that chance.

 

[Yarrgh]

Remember last year when we had about 30 number 10’s? Well that’s gonna happen again with wingers if you mentalists get your way.

I like the new mentalism more. Buy only Brazillian wingers Brands!

 

[Jayhow15]

If I were Kenny, I'd take that chance.

Too right. Mega opportunity

 

[Ron Burgundy]

If true, would mean we are getting a new RB in. Well observed Marcel/Marco.

He turned them down, waiting for a bigger club

 

[jackyboy]

People want Bernard dropped? Dearie me.
