Really think we should start a sticky for transfer reliability. Edward's record on actual players is probably pretty good?

Was the first to report Chris Wood back in January so I think (and hope) he is right about Henderson

Luke basically saying we aren’t close to anyone, we are monitoring Ake and DCL but all transfers are proving very difficult.

 

Also says the Etikite deal is still a couple of weeks away and it could be the agent using us to get a move to another club.

Wouldn't take any notice of that fucker on anything. Is he still stating that only 50 million is available (he said the same in January). One thing is for absolute certain, is that bald cunt will be getting nothing from the owners.

I will be honest, I've barely seen him play or payed attention to him but I'm a keen watcher of Ben Fosters podcast and he absolutely raved about him the other week, said he's absolutely class. Also talked about his character, apparently he's dead quite and just comes in grafts his arse off then goes home. Not one for much socialising etc.

 

Had forgotten about him having a podcast. Had a look and he's had some interesting guests, will have a listen  :thup:

DCL and Ake would be terrible value for money. Would be paying way over the odds.

 

DCL would be a shite signing in general, always injured and crap attitude. Ake would be alright, but there would be much better options for the cost/we could bring in two or three.

 

We really need to move away from Howe’s continued British market obsession.

Ake does nowt for me would far rather go for one of the younger European options that have been linked. We got an experienced PL defender in Burn, we should gamble on someone with a higher ceiling than Ake, especially at the price quoted.

 

Ake and DCL are lazy options, there’s far more exciting and better value options out there.

Fairly ridiculous criticism, he just saved the club by performing a feat that nobody’s ever done before. 
 

Going forward, of course we’ll be able to plan and choose signings more carefully.

The Luke Edwards chart:

 

Write an overly negative article to ramp up social media engagement. Did it land?

 

Yes. Job done.

 

No. Start making daft statements in the comments.

 

I can't believe some still take him at face value.

It’s a valid criticism. His performance this season was exceptional overall, but it’s still okay to say his transfer dealings across his career have been patchy at best - largely because of that obsession.

Fresh from accusing folk of hyperbole in the Botman thread no less.
