How ? being asked to be made aware of good players becoming available is not amateur

Fair ? what I meant is that even when we do sign anyone, they are never the first to break it.

Is it ? Is it not just a case of the club asking to be made aware if good players become available? I’m sure they have done the same with loads of players across Europe.

Our athletic writers seem to be the only ones who don’t get exclusive transfer news, or many exclusives at all tbh. Every other club on twitter when you see breaking transfer news it comes from their representative who writes for the athletic, for whatever reason ours seem massively out of the loop.

I’ve not seen him play tbh so not really in a position to pick him over Maddison

Nor is Paqueta in all likeliness ?

I’d have to pick Maddison, he’s proven as one of the best midfielders in the league already.

Wouldn’t say he looks very good, but yeah Paqueta and a young back up striker would make this an incredible window and we could focus on RW next summer

If we replace Almiron

Don’t believe it simply because I don’t see how he goes for 33 million.

Zero chance of him choosing us over city if that choice was ever presented to him

Got Targett first as well and was the first to report the second Maddison bid was rejected.

He also won’t be going for 33 million

33 million for Paqueta seems to low as well, especially with the World Cup coming

Dieng one already rubbished by French press, supposedly 5th choice at Marseille and turned up for pre season massively out of shape

Not a rumour for us a such, but one we must surely be aware of ? I know @McCormickis big fan and it’s seemingly within our price range

Wilson is very very likely to be injured though, having a player similar to him to come in and rotate with him would be sensible surely ?

That’s why I’d maybe just start looking at a couple of loan deals, even if it’s without and option to buy. Get some quality in but save the big money for another time.

Chelsea seemingly getting closer to matching the valuation for Fofana, pretty much ends the Maddison chase you would think.

Can’t see it happening, doesn’t fit the profile we are looking at.

Watford are absolutely shit, Dennis in particular

Took 4 points from them last season
