Transfer Discussion Thread

[RPCB]

You can still recognise a player who has contributed a lot to your club is leaving and be sad about it. Petulant or not he's been a fantastic player for you for a long time in an era where you've signed a lot of dross.

I am not upset by Bruno’s performances and he has put on a lot of good ones, albeit a bit inconsistent at times. It’s the attitude towards his teammates I am not happy with. I think there is a good chance he won’t be around in a year or 2, maybe even this transfer window.

He’s too petulant for my taste. Also, going to be 30 in September and rebuilding the squad would mean selling older players like Bruno. Varane and Casemiro might not be around next season for the same reason.

Do you want United to rebuild like North Melbourne has? Or worse, Chelsea?

Devastating news Bradesmaen

Just the usual clickbait from the Daily Mail. The quote was

'Obviously, it doesn’t just depend on me, does it? A player always has to want to be here, but at the same time, you have to want him to stay. At the moment, I feel there’s that on both sides.'

Don't see why you'd get rid. Any replacement will be inferior and he has a few good years left. Only a ridiculous fee would prise him away surely.

I suspect a lot of that inconsistency is a result of him never getting a rest TBF.

They say that the best ability is availability and Bruno never misses a game. For that reason alone he has to stay.

Bruno never getting a rest would definitely be a Bruno decision. But definitely agree that that would play a factor, he’s only human after all.

West Ham are expecting Mohammed Kudus, Lucas Paqueta and Edson Alvarez to push for moves away from the club this summer.

West Ham defender Aaron Cresswell will leave the club.

West Ham ready to accept suitable offers for Danny Ings.

Never to be seen or heard of again for the next 4 years.

The nerve. They’ve been banging on about how good he has been for them now they don’t want to pay his full release clause. Will probably try to sell him back to us for £85m in a couple of seasons as well.

Tosin Adarabioyo on a free is going to be a great get for someone.

Early days but I think their is a clear top 3 signings of the season that are a mile above the rest. So far signings of the season are

1. James Ward-Prowse - Fits West Ham perfectly who are one of the best set piece teams around and now with the best set piece taker around. Ive read he has like 6 assists already or something crazy like that
2. James Maddison - Unheralded as a targetted man at Leicester. More freedom and a system that suits him to a tee with Angeball
3. Dominik Szoboszlai - Absolute beast. All that money spent on all those CMs and this guy is a cut above.

Id be staggered if anything changes from those top 3 either. Early days I know but sometimes a signing just fits the team so well they are never going to fail

This early call (in September!) is fun to revisit.

Fortunately, I have no such skeletons. Sorry, what?

My least favourite part of the early stages of a new season is the clamour to judge every signing as either the best or worst signing ever~! after four games.

The realtity if the value of any new signing takes months to establish. Except Havertz. He really is the worst signing of the summer.

Disastrous loan.

Fab with the brilliant insights there.

Good signing for Everton PSR wise. Just keep loaning him until his contract expires.

Agreed. Developed into a really good defender.

 

[DBAH0]

Disastrous loan.

Yep am just thankful it wasn't a permanent deal.

He's Danny Drinkwater quality now.

Yeah think he'll go to a bigger club unfortunately. Was hoping you might just be letting him out on loan again.
