Pretty much done he says, but I bet we hear nothing official for another week yet.

Didn't he say the same thing about the Guehi deal at one point last summer? 

[AyeDubbleYoo]

Sounded like it was pretty much done last transfer window TBH. 

[St1pe]

I’m confident this gets done this time. 

[STM]

It's been a fairly badly kept secret this one. 

 

I dont even think Burnley really wanted to put up a fight over it.

 

I actually think from their point of view, getting 30m in for a keeper when they need funds for a survival push is smart business.

 

I know they've signed a young keeper but I cant help but feel Dubravka would be a good signing for them. 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Hoping we can wrap this up soon

 

Very excited with this signing and think it will be money well spent 

[SUPERTOON]

Hopefully be a good signing, hard to get excited about with how long it’s gone on mind.

Distribution aside, I think Pope is class. 

 

Apart from bedding in a long term replacement, what attributes does Trafford have to his game that will elevate the team?

He can be slightly worse in every other metric but if he has good distribution then he will do more for the team than Pope. Distribution is huge these days and can enable us to have another element to our game

“Top Shagger Trafford: deal to NUFC pretty much done”. New title? 

[B-more Mag]

I pretty much think Luke pretty much licks windows.

It's like a desert in here, we're all thirsty for news, so you've got to give the people that little serotonin hit when they log on, even if it is from the never reliable Edwards

I still think Popes injury was not right when he come back. Seemed reluctant to dive in that shoulder so maybe he knows he would fail a medical if if he was looking to leave.

 

Either way time waits for no man.. be it Pope in goal or Wilson at CF.

 

Players have to be prepared for a sudden replacement if we are to achieve our top 4 hopes year in year out

Thought he looked comfortable on that shoulder after the cup final. 

[Nine]

Get the feeling he had a verbal agreement with Burnley that he’d stay one more season in an attempt to get promoted and then would be able to leave without much fuss. 

[The Prophet]

He saw the Pope message didn't he?

[Rich]

Let’s get this show on the road.

Did Pope delete it?

[J7]

Really chuffed with this signing. Could be our keeper for the next decade or so.

well he didn't save it

[Optimistic Nut]

Hope he becomes this era's Shay Given, just with feet. 

[McCormick]

Wew. Another “out of the blue” transfer!

At what point do we walk away due to Man City getting their slice?
