Other clubs' transfers


Recommended Posts

Roberto Firmino could leave Al-Ahli after only six months, with Sheffield United one of the Premier League teams interested in his signature, report Talksport.

 

Best rumour I've heard for a while, would love to see it happen

As does Man City's.

 

Hopefully we will in a few years.

 

Or saves us a few quid does minteh have the potential to save us spending 40m+ on someone or a bumper profit on a 6/8m outlay. Obviously need those consistently to help with the books.

It should be both. 

 

Brighton are good at it but have to sell first teamers. Man City do it without that. Chelsea could be interesting as Gallacher is a first teamer....could their well be running dry ?

Possibly they have alot of first teamers probably still surplus just from the current regime the issue for Chelsea now is the players they brought in they spent big on so not as many bargains anymore. Assume Gallagher is youth set up pure profit so sell for 40 amortised gives them 200m to spend again. Spent wisely it can be transformative but as we know it's Chelsea we talking about and will most likely get pissed up the wall on the latest shiny new thing unless it gets them a top striker with it.

The Saudi league will probably have an exodus. Only 299 turned up to the latest Al-Riyadh game :lol: while Gerrard stinks the place up. Not sure I'd want any of them mind. 

Stuggling to think of any, I means there's talent but the obscene extra wages put most out of our league

Real Madrid sold the top, got varane and casemiro off the books and replaced them with younger players. Fantastic management.

Man U have become the Newcastle United of the post-Bobby era. Signing cast offs who are either finished or already in real decline. The irony being that we mostly signed them from Man U

Varane has been our best centre back for years. His issue is staying fit. Casemiro was instrumental in us finishing third and winning a trophy last year but has been injured for a lot of this season. He'll be important when he's back. 

 

We've signed some absolute shite like, but I wouldn't be singling out those two. 

 

Not sure who Neesy is meaning when he says Real Madrid are great are selling to us. If anything we've sold them more declining players than the other way around; Van Nistelrooy, Heinze etc.

They still won a title with Van Nistelrooy being their main striker.

 

In denial as always.

And we won our first trophy in 6 years with Casemiro scoring the opener. We also kept the most clean sheets last year with Varane and Casemiro being the most important factors in that.

 

What's your point?

Not going to argue about Varane as you bought him when he was still a fantastic player. It was always clear that Casemiro’s shelf life was going to run out well before the end of his contract and I think most people talked about that when he signed. The fact you had Sabitzer, Wout Weghorst and have Jonny Evans and Amrabat tells the story of where you are as a club right now. You’ve spent outlandishly on players who aren’t good enough, Antony, Sancho, Mount etc and then haven’t been able to spend to bring actual quality in. Obviously the Glazers are a major factor there but your transfer markets for years have been really poor @Froggy

This is 100% true. I was more talking about Neesy's comment about us being some sort of whipping boy to Madrid in the transfer market when it isn't the case.

They're all emergency loan signings because the board couldn't build lego never mind a team. Incredibly poor in the market. We would have had Arnautovic as well only the fans kicked off. :lol:

I think Antony is pound for pound the worst singing we've ever made. He is garbage. I do think you're being harsh on Mount though. He hasn't had a chance to get into gear yet.

 

Less said about Sancho the better. All the talent, none of the mindset.
