Summer 2018 Transfer Thread

[RobbieOR]

Not seen Yarmolenko play much but his reputation seemed to suggest better than West fucking Ham

 

Something isn't right with him if the first big move he gets is to Dortmund, he flops and then ends up there. 

[Thoth]

West Ham will either be brilliant or be next seasons Everton, good signings on paper but will they be good on grass?

the Ukranian Andy Carroll.

[Denny Crane]

Sporting Lisbon spent a lot of money on shills. I wonder which other clubs are at it cough cough.

 

The plot thickens

 

The situation at Sporting Clube de Portugal is messy. When the club failed to qualify for the Champions League last season, players were attacked at the training ground by angry fans, and several players demanded to be released from their contracts.

 

And it just got a whole lot messier, with the revelation from Portuguese newspaper Correio da Manhã that the club has apparently spent half a million euros annually on social media companies, building bots and fake social media accounts in an attempt to shift public opinion back in the club's favour.

 

According to the the newspaper, "this form of communication was fundamental to Bruno de Carvalho and to the 'war' made to Benfica, and this was the way of spreading unconfirmed information, half truths or simple rumours."

 

This could lead to an irreparable break in trust between the fans and the club, and will not do the club any favours in trying to persuade some key players to stay.

 

William Carvalho in particular looks likely to move on. He has been linked with a move to the Premier League for years, but now he seems set for a move to Real Betis, according to reports. Either way, he will be more determined than ever to get out of the club he's played for since 2011

Origi and Sturridge told to prove themselves by Klopp

 

Not Origi's biggest fan , but he would have offered far more than Ings & Solanke last season.

 

We are unlikely to be as lucky with injuries to the front three as last season , so I would clear out Sturridge & Ings , loan out Solanke, bring back Origi and buy another forward ( Fekir would be ideal as a double-whammy for mids & attack )

[Arnaud]

Yarmolenko is a very good player but he may have not the mental strength, a Ukrainian flaw. Like Rebrov for those who remember him.

[Jairzinho]

Can't remember him playing much the last year or two.

[Elite]

Time to see how resilient England are.

Don’t Sporting have local journos to do this dirty work for them. Much like ours have managed very successfully.

[Thoth]

That young Engurland goalkeeper seems good.. who does he play for we should sign him up

He's a year younger than Karius not exactly young in footballer terms.

[aws]

If he's not young why are they going to fly a blimp of him in nappies?

[J-V]

If he's not young why are they going to fly a blimp of him in nappies?

 

Because they're gimps.

[Aventus]

Thank fuck that world cup nonsense is over with, time for the real deal...

 

Bullshit transfer rumours invented by lazy journos!

 

Can't wait til Mane is linked to Madrid, and Bobby linked to Barcelona.

 

We'll be linked with anything with a pulse, and James Pearce will have to work overtime just to keep up with shooting every one of them down, probably smirking at us as he does it.

 

 

And I'll fall for the bullshit headlines and click on the bullshit clickbait, and get my hopes up and end up disappointed.

 

I've missed this.

[Grinch]

Before we do that we should look at how shite he was last season and not get swayed by one game.

 

He would be wrote off on here with everyone crying for a new keeper if he had such form for us.

I like him. He’s clearly got balls and he’s a very good goalkeeper.

[Josef Svejk]

Yarmolenko is a very good player but he may have not the mental strength, a Ukrainian flaw. Like Rebrov for those who remember him.

How did the French get on while marching through Ukraine, by the way?

[Red Hot]

I like him. He’s clearly got balls and he’s a very good goalkeeper.

 

Me To, the lads distribution would suit us to a tee, I don't know what the cost would be to sign him but deffo worth an inquiry 

[Pidge]

We should see if Akinfeev fancies a payday now the World Cup is out of the way.

[El Rojo]

Yeah, his distribution is very decent.

 

Bar a few obvious clangers, the overall standard of ‘keeping in the tournament has been really good.

Origi and Sturridge told to prove themselves by Klopp

What is there to prove that he has not seen in the years past! Jurgen Klopp never ceases to amaze me.

[1892-LFCWasBorn]

One player I've liked watching at the World Cup is Rebic.

 

Not going to get in our first team unless there are injuries, but a good squad player and can play anywhere in the front three. A good altenative to Bobby because of his work rate, which we don't really have.

 

Has pace, big fucker, skillful and works his nuts off.

 

Sell Ings, Origi and Sturridge to fund it.
