Maguire confirmed.

Bournemouth are taking the piss with that evaluation surely?

Why? Why should they sell if they don't want to?

 

[kangaspurs]

There's just no value whatsoever in signing domestic-based players anymore. Clubs don't need to sell.

It's going to get to a point where players will start signing contracts of 2 or 3 years at most so they still have some control.

Exactly. Leicester set the market by charging so much for their bloke, they aren't going to be looked after elsewhere. Everybody knows they have 80mil to spend.

Ake is also pretty good.

Former Barcelona winger Malcom could be set to leave Zenit Saint Petersburg just days after joining the Russian club from Camp Nou after receiving abuse from a section of the club’s fans during his debut against Krasnodar.

Malcom joined Zenit for 40 million euros after a single season at Barcelona but the reigning Russian Premier League champions are already pondering moving the Brazilian on after fans unfurled a banner during the game last Saturday that read: “Thanks to our leaders for remaining true to our traditions.” The message was an ironic reference to Zenit’s tacit policy of not signing black players.

Although Zenit have not made any official statement, Russian daily Ria Novosti reported that the club may seek a new team for Malcom in January in the face of their fans’ unrest. “Zenit could sell Malcom in January because of problems with racism. The fans have not accepted him,” the newspaper wrote, citing a Brazilian source.

He is terrible at picking his transfers

 

[Bradesmaen]

Probably wasn't allowed to do it because Maguire wasn't a name.

 

[Bradesmaen]

OGS is still going to get sacked at the end of the season. Buying players can't replace inept management.

 

[Magma]

sidibe to everton

 

[Quintero]

Only question mark is on Juventus's thought process. Think at that price Everton can't lose even if Kean proves to be a dud, good talent, could be anything really.

He wanted out due to racism apparently. Gol scoring record is good.

Our summer spending spree has continued with the signing of Adrian as backup keeper on a free transfer.

At this rate we might just eclipse Norwich City for spending in the transfer market after 5m splurged so far.

 

[DBAH0]

You sound happy about that one Zidane. Decent backup is Adrian albeit he is a bit eccentric and prone to the odd brain fade.

We're signing Goncalo Cardoso as the new Reece Oxford....

It's a step down from Mignolet as a #2 keeper but he should be good for keeping in the cups. Have concerns if he has to cover for Allison on a long term injury.

Moyes was excellent at identifying targets, but during his time we never had the financial power to do so. Aaron Ramsey, Michael Essien, Petr Cech (agreed a fee but loan back, he wanted to play first team straight away) & Kostas Manolas are the ones that really stood out. Can recall a bit about van der Vaart before he moved to Spurs eventually, but we were keen on him until Real Madrid changed their mind wanted him to stay

Also had Eric Dier & Mustafi at the club as youngsters

To be fair, this is what I do in manager so that the player can’t get mad at me but I can price out a club at the same time!

Let's keep quiet about that one shall we?

 

[ossie_21]

Can’t believe United actually went out and spent £80mil on slabhead

 

[Bradesmaen]

Rom Lukaku is training with Anderlecht - he's been frozen out that much for a shit 21 year old who only scores every now and then? Ouch.

 

[Magma]

no one can resist the urge of playing under vinny.

 

[jod23]

Still got Martial, Rashford and Sanchez and young Greenwood.

Do they need him?

Does everyone still count Sanchez as a footballer?
