Transfer discussion thread

[Spanish Sahara]

Ffs can people stop derailing threads with petty arguments.

This has been one of the slowest starts to a transfer season for the PL big boys, even the rumours have died in the arse. Waiting on the first striker domino to fall...

United did **** all up until the day they left on tour a few years back then we suddenly announced Darmian, Basti and Morgs.

I'm hoping we are gonna be doing the same again.

 

[jod23]

Yeah so again, most of us don't care about Everton vs Liverpool on paper (or in Jod's head).

Start a new thread if you want to compare midfielders but keep this one for transfers.

Why the random pop at me??

Costa refusing to move is arguably the root cause of it all

 

[The Filth Wizard]

I've always wanted to be on this side.

Shut up.

 

[typeclub]

Not me. There was nothing unreasonable about what they said at all IMO and some of the reactions here are just way over the top.

Maybe I'm going off topic but I really feel like posting standards are plummeting around here because so many people just rush to sensationalise or take the piss out of what other supporters have to say without actually adding anything of value to the conversation.

Its terrible. Something needs to be done about it.

Hes pretty happy to move. Atletico just need to stump up the cash.

What's done is done but if Conte didn't send that text to Costa we'd be getting an extra 10M from Atletico. They've got the whipping hand now; Costa has us bent over a barrel.

That text was a dumb thing for Conte to do.

 

[Quivorir]

Still completely dumbfounded he did it by text. Was he drunk?

 

[largebus]

In January or now? Atletico are banned this summer

 

[chef]

Atletico will buy him this window imo.

Yeah, Conte ****ed that up completely. But they were never going to meet our evaluation anyway and we'll take a bit of a hit to get rid of a bit of a problem child.

 

[largebus]

Well Simeone was one of the dirtiest players around, wouldn't put it past them to get it done somehow

 

[Jatz]

Why the random pop at me??

Was supposed to be tongue in cheek. I'm clearly terrible at humour

Lack of smilies threw me.

[pantskyle]

[jod23]

Particularly after they just spent 52 million on Lacazette.

 

[Magma]

Yeah not gonna happen unless some stupid offer comes in for Alexis.

arsenal are under premier league ffp pressure anyways regarding their wage increases.

We can take care of that by flogging off all the dead wood that's on 100k/week like Theo & Wilshere. Giroud on 100k/week too who looks like he is leaving, Lucas on 70k, Debuchy on 70k, Gibbs 60k, Jenko 45k. Don't think wages would be a big problem for us.
