Eurgh, it's officially into saga territory.

It’s boring already and the window isn’t open yet.

Another one of your threads in the mud.

I get the appeal, he already lives in West London, plus no doubt a higher wage and signing on fee at a larger club. At the same time though, he's pretty much guaranteed first team football up here and Howe will have a plan for his development that a managerless Chelsea won't.

 

It'll be a blow if he doesn't sign given we'd have to buy another CB, but I'm sure we'll have a good transfer market regardless of the outcome. Let's see what happens.

I wonder if he does turn us down, we no longer move for a keeper. I would think the money would be needed more for a CB.

Basket case club who still came closer to winning something last season than we’ve managed in about 50 years. 

I mean that’s a lie, we got to the exact same position as them the season before.

No. Trafford was a winning international keeper woodman could barely get in the nets for England u21s. And nearly every loan he wasn't t pulling up trees. 

Didn’t Woodman win an international tournament with England ?

Downie back tracking and the window hasn’t opened yet. Can’t stand sky sports reporters.

Shame, you would imagine their wage offer will blow ours out of the water.

If Leeds are having a fire sale would anyone consider Meslier? He’s been one of the most highly rated young keepers for a few seasons.

Not for me, looks awful every time I see him.

Think we lost the plot since the first window. Feels like a lot of the links are sideways and english..

Aye, that second window when we signed Isak and Botman was shit.

Good news 

Leicester want Potter or Corberan.

Maresca to Chelsea is destined to fail right? I can't see any way he does even a half decent job their.

Leicester fans aren’t even that big on him.

The continuing links to buying a keeper make me more confident regarding deals for Tosin and Kelly. I don’t think we buy a keeper if either of those turn us down.

Woke up feeling really excited about this transfer window. Whilst lots of disappointment last season, none of which is worth rehashing, I do think a potential positive outcome is the glaring necessity to stretch the PSR limits, move out the nonessential, unreliable, or past peak players, and give ourselves a chance of building on the improvements made in the last 2.5 seasons. 
I hope we do get some business done early, including outgoings and perhaps save an unexpected big signing until the 11th hour. 

Other than free transfers, I wouldn’t expect any early business tbh. The whole PSR deadline and the euros will make most clubs do business later imo.

Personally wouldn’t want or trust Krafth to be our back up RB all season. Personally think he is a really poor player.

@Jack27 favourite source.

Looks like it’s De Zerbi to Chelsea. How long till he falls out with the owners ?

The central defender could leave #Juventus in the summer in front of a suitable offer.

Juve is defining the arrival of Riccardo Calafiori from #Bologna where Fabio Miretti can go

Tosin alternative?

Oh wow that was Sulemana just then with the trophy!

 

That Southampton move really derailed what was looking like a promising emergence in France.

 

Completely forgot he was still with them. Hope he can turn things around.

He looked decent against us at St James last season.

I wouldn’t be surprised if we moved for Antonine Semenyo, he is coming off the back of his first full season in the Premier League where he scored 8 goals, he is capable of going up a few more levels too. He played well in both games against us and was probably the best player on the pitch at SJP. He is capable of playing in all of the front three positions too.

 

He is unlikely to cost silly money either.

Good shout, although I do think we will get a Bruno/Isak level in for RW.

Not sure, buy I think this geezer said he'd be a first team option.

Must be pretty highly rated then if that’s true. Would be nice to see him and Harrison amongst others be good enough to make the first team next season.

Still haven't settled on our right wing target allegedly.

What would that have to do with is signing a kid from Arsenal.

Dharmesh has been miles behind all the way through this one mind. Wasn't this bring reported last week?

Aye, although the reports of it being pretty much done last week also seem wide of the mark. Just reminds me how much I hate the majority of the transfer window.

Douglas wrote in his piece last week that our top targets for the RW position have yet to be mentioned in the press.
