mighty__mag Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 1 hour ago, r0cafella said: Anyways any new rumours?  What about who's potentially leaving, or needs to go before the deadline.  Matt Targett, Southampton, Fulham, Forest, Brentford, (Nufc.com)  Jamal Lewis, Ryan Fraser, Ashby,  Dubravka, Do we actually need Dubravka?  Trippier, still debatable.  Miggy?      Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to give it to them. A Greek GK for £20 mill. F’ing hell. Edited August 26 by maze Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both now first team players at other clubs signed Hall who looks quality but not sure Howe trusts him yet  signed Ruddy for absolutely no reason  signed the Greek fella to get the Anderson deal down and immediately look up loan him out  signed Osula who is a gamble having not yet scored a PL goal  Kelly looks a decent signing for free  With no one else in the two key areas identified by the club haven’t been improved  and not some single deadwood player out the door.  4/10 is generous  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially as we still have Schar and Burn playing well, if it is someone that might need a bit of time to adjust or settle in, coming from another league or whatever.

If anything happens to Schar our season is massively hit and we'd only have ourselves to blame for not being prepared after what happened last season. Schar's getting to an age where his performances might start to naturally decline, too. Edited August 26 by Optimistic Nut Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think there’s a deal to be made, but probably moved away from loan (with obligation) to an outright sale this window needed to entice Chelsea.

Dr.Spaceman Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Any chance we're only looking at DCL as he has more sell-on value? Get decent value out of the Tripps swap, then sell DCL after a year or so at the age of 28/29 for 25 million. Given we managed to get 15 million for Chris Wood, who was largely shite for us I don't think that would be an unreasonable amount. Plus we could then afford the Wilson sale this January if someone wants to offer us between 5-10 million. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t get me wrong we need a Cb but a starting Cb wouldn’t be my priority this window if our budget is limited and we starting players like Murphy (no offence love the guy but he isn’t quite up to it ). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamPS Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 On outgoings I think we have to be realistic.  Fraser, Lewis, Ashby and Haydon will be loan deals for peanuts.  A GK will probably also exit due to numbers, again for peanuts.  After that potentially Targett if he wants first team football, but that’s it. Anyone else leaving weakens the first team squad.  The lesson from the summer in outgoings is if you want to see cash being brought in, then you have to sell players you like, as they are the ones with value.

He was done by the time Owen made him look silly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
