Transfer discussion thread

[Gosha]

Just 3 HG players and 1 of them is a spanish prick. Should be docked points going into next season like sides going into Administration for bringing the English game into disrepute

Have you written an angry letter expressing your outrage?

He already did that after the MD36 meltdown....

 

[ADL9798]

Movement on the Keita front. Opening offer of €65m rejected. Bit of talk that while publicly they're retaining a firm 'not for sale' stance, progress is being made behind closed doors.

 

[Established1870]

Absolute shattered about Leo. The board needs to be punted for running a absolute champion out of the club. A lot of very angry Juve fans out there currently

Couldn't happen to a nicer club.

 

[Great8]

Couldn't happen to a nicer club.

Ha
Don't think there won't be repercussions.
We won't be handing over the title without a fight, reckon there might be a few clubs raided now to compensate

Yeah because Sampdoria were gearing up for a title fight

Pennington and Robles on their way?

Pennington and Robles on their way?

I really wouldn't mind either of them to be perfectly honest. Pennington could become a good-ish defender and Robles would be a class above in the Championship.

 

[jd2010]

Yep and sent it straight to Jeremy Corbyn he'll get this blight on the game sorted and bring back the music and football to the great people of the UK!

Yeah I'm keen on Pennington.

 

[Wally Walpamur]

Great get for Watford for only £5m

I hope there's a buy back clause in there. His back heel against United last season was everything.

 

[go you pups]

Against Tanzanian farmers. He's found his level.

Did Everton go there for a charity sponsor or something?

Makes no sense doing a preseason in such an isolated place.

No way!!!

Glorious

Going forward in terms of running with the ball yes. But he doesn't do a whole heap with that. Defensively neither are perfect and whilst the stupid stuff from Walker has reduced there's still 6-8 real dumb mistakes a season made where they nearly always result in goals

Lol no. Trippier shits on him going forward.

This Pereira guy seems to have good vision going forward

He's quick, but looks a little unco on the ball, but the thing I like most about him going forward is he keeps his head up and looks for the right option to go to in an attacking area. He's not afraid of cutting inside too.

Looks like he can pinch hit at left back also.

Seriously cannot believe Milan are actually looking like they'll pull off the Bonucci signing.

Donnarumma
Rodriguez Bonucci Romagnoli Conti

That defence

Lucas Biglia all done as well, nice signing for their midfield.

What are Lazio doing currently? Haven't heard much from them. Biglia is a big loss for them.

We'll make up the numbers with youf you would think as usual.

Max squad size is 25 so if 5 youth players are added to it you'd have just 20 senior players. Is that light on?

Off the top of my head I'd say thats normal. We never have heaps of senior english players.

You can have unlimited U21s and they count towards home grown quota too.

I hate that rule too as those kids never get utilised. If England wants to improve on the international scene then they should get tougher on home grown quotas in the top flight, make the quota of 8 as over 21s, would make teams like Chelsea and Man City put more time into integrating youth into their squads in due course, or they can spend big like City on them

Nope, Europa qualifiers soon for us.

We are having one of the best transfer windows in the history of football, From where we were to today is amazing. Once Bonucci is done it's a 10/10 for me.

But the Italian media think our masterpiece is yet to come, PEA or Belotti and it becomes 20/10.

Wow football is fun again.

Thought it may have been infighting

Them CL defeats would've been deflating. Bonucci is the youngest of their main CB trio also, you'd think he would be the one to build around for a few years.

Kinda wonder if Barzagli and Chiellini will drop off soon and be like a Samuel/Lucio/Cordoba circa 2010-13, particularly Barzagli who is 36-37 now.

Best defense in the world completely undone. The pressure of facing Cristiano got to them. Now they're falling apart too

Yeah because Sampdoria were gearing up for a title fight

Did lel

Hopefully this may be a powershift type of transfer. Ligue 1 was a 1 team league for a few years, then boom Zlatan leaves and Monaco goes ahead of PSG.

Juve has a decent attack, but their midfield and defence has always been quality which has given them stability and arguably the best performed defence in Europe over the last couple of years, I wonder If Bonucci leaving breaks down that stability somewhat?

 

[Art Vandelay_]

fair enough. Just checking

That's conflation on your part. There's a distinction between believing he's better and not being worried Walker has been sold. The lack of worry is because the understudy is quite competent. Would be petrified if it was Naughton or Corluka

The only annoyance is selling to Oil Sheikh FC.

 

[Milanista28]

Bonucci out will mean they see Rugani as ready to step up and I think they will go hard for De Vrij, But Lazio can't afford to lose another pillar of their team.

 

[Established1870]

Bonucci out will mean they see Rugani as ready to step up and I think they will go hard for De Vrij, But Lazio can't afford to lose another pillar of their team.

They also have Caldara from Atalanta on their books so they don't even need De Vrij, they have 2 quality CB's to replace Bonucci now.

 

[go you pups]

We wanted Rugani all last year, but I think Juve wanted a swap deal at the time, can't remember who they were interested in at the time though from us.

I do wonder if we had of somehow grabbed him though.

 

[Milanista28]

They'll probably call him back agree.

 

[Latro]

Southampton has signed Stuart Taylor to s contract.

Taylor is my idol.

 

[Magma]

milan signing bonucci is signing of the window. absolutely staggering. shame he didnt want to leave italy. plus if they keep romagnoli it's an even bigger plus.

they're absolutely nailing this window.

 

[FAITH]

Good to see Milan back with the big boys, great club

 

[Milanista28]

Someone has to stop Real dominating Europe, We are your only hope.

 

[jod23]

No way!!!

That's terrific.
