Transfer Window Thread

[GrandOldTeam]

I'd say at the moment their are no rumours credible enough for they're own thread, the most talked about players rumoured at the mo seem to be Praet, Ogbonna, Mertens and the Keeper from Deportivo.

There isn't yet. Hence;

Transfer Deadline Dedicated Threads:
Links to appear here as/when.

.......reports from Italy suggesting we are in pole position to sign Ogbanna;

Tuttosport have revealed this morning that Ogbonna’s likely destination will be the Premier League because the Italian sides who are interested in the player could be priced out of a move for him. Juventus are holding out for offers in in the region of £7m which has priced out newly promoted side Bologna moving in for the former Torino star. Napoli who would be able to offer this are now looking at other options rather than pursuit Ogbonna. It has been claimed Everton are now leading the race to sign the central defender but they will face competition from fellow Premier League sides West Ham United and Southampton.

Nobody has any cred on this forum. You heard it here first.

Can we get Shaqiri off Stoke? What does this rate on the credibility scale?

I'd say 2/10.

The two threads was a new approach - feedback was it was a little confusing, and the majority of members voted in favour of one thread;

https://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/the-transfer-threads-poll.77002/

... Just like we've always done;

https://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/misc-transfer-rumour-thread.59920/
https://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/2013-january-transfer-window-thread.51884/

Ultimately, you lot couldn't seem to grasp what was credible, and what wasn't. So the credible thread was becoming trivial, and so, moderators will now ascertain what's credible and start a new player thread as/when - like we've done in the past.

So what you're saying is @Groucho messed up.

 

[USABlue]

Ogbonna is ace on fifa haha

Not at all.

If anyone messed up, it's @micknick - He project leads transfer threads...

In all seriousness, we tried a different approach. Feedback via a poll on here favoured the usual approach - 1 thread, separate new player threads for anything credible.

Lower than mine.

 

[Michaelcoyb]

Not happy about this

 

[Hangleton]

Lower than mine.

Latest gossip is that GOT will have more transfer threads than Everton will have transfers.
Better this way I think.
Thanks Mods.

7 mil is a bit steep when we have Browning/Galloway for the future. I'd rather we took a low risk signing in that Ragnar Klavan who we where briefly linked with last month. Doubt he would go for more than 3/4 mil max. Then it allows us that little bit extra for either Shaqiri/Merterns or Praet.

 

[Mashtray]

i, personally feel refreshed with this new thread.

Bobby wants 1 or 2 more players in (no 10 and CB - allegedly), some rumors that everton asked to see J Evans medical records a while ago but will EL Flip Flop throw his toys out of the pram in a PUBLIC press conference if he does,nt get his NO 10 due to lack of funds?

James to sign a new contract soon but you heard that from the Mout already on here. Still a fair few players in the dressing room allegedly who don,t have el flip flop on there cxmas card list so the results in the first 10 games will be everything.

Or for once the board can step up and buy a decent defender and a quality playmaker.
