Now That's What I Call Transfer Rumours! 7

Would love to know why they didn’t fancy him for us, he looks like the real deal - certainly when you consider we really wanted Ekitike who was in a similar ‘raw with a huge upside’ category. I assume we can compete with Dortmund on wages. Presumably they thought it was too much of a risk for where we are.

Can't get much more of a Borussia Dortmund signing than that. They'll at the very least treble that by the time he's 23.

Aye I deleted it, realised it was a fake account ?

Wish I could just switch off and wait for the confirmed transfers out of nowhere to happen. 

 

Know I'll be checking this thread daily regardless though. At least we won't have the daily Paqeuta posts or people begging Ando for info this summer. At least I hope [emoji38]

Aye, he said at the True Faith event that they’ll basically always spend as much as they can. 

That has been my feeling too, they will spend what they can get away with on the players on the shortlist.

Where would your three big signings be?

desperate for one, even 2 midfielders.

need a striker/wideman combined.

 

if wilson gets injured we have no striker on the bench

Fair :thup:

 

The RCB is the link we could probably live without.

 

LB, CM x 2 and a RW type player seem the most logical upgrades or are essential for depth.

Think Gordon is the wide forward.

Could be, it seems that we want a playmaker type forward though (Maddison, Szoboszlai, etc).

 

Unless they're also being brought in to cover one of the midfield places.

I think they are hence why I think they might go for Szoboszlai over Maddison as an 8. He’s more adaptable to both positions along with he fits the bill of over 6ft and physically better than Maddison. What extra they may need to pay in fees if any they will save in wages with him.

 

Have a feeling it will be Thurman for the 6. I don’t think it will be Tierney for the 3. Think all the noise with him is coming from the Arsenal end.

Then you've clearly not understood me. 

 

Rodri lead City for league games this year and he's played - but for two games - DM. De Bruyne has played either CM or AM. I didn't say we should never sign versatile players. I said we have several that fit that mould, now we need specialists. That's why Pep spent 100m on a player that he's only using as a left winger. 

Are you trying to imply that Stones, Walker and Bernardo weren’t massive parts of City’s team this season?

I don’t think I agree with the premise that seems to imply a “specialist” is superior to a “versatile” player. We’re also not playing in remotely the same financial stratosphere as City, so if anything players that offer the ability to play multiple positions are probably more valuable to us right now.

Krafth is back too.

BDB will likely be back as a CB next season too. Pretty sure we will still get a RCB but Botman, Schar, Lascelles, Burn and Krafth as backup is already there. Interested to see how Alex Murphy, McArthur and Savage have developed this year too. Kelland watts is coming back from loan too.

God damnit @SUPERTOON :lol: 

 

I was literally annoyed at work this morning for a few seconds when i read that tweet, thinking of course fucking Dortmund or Leipzig would get him.

Also thinking that watch him go to RM or City in a couple of seasons for around/plus 100m.
