Summer 2021 transfer thread.

[3 Stacks]

Doku is not the type of transfer we usually do. Would be surprised if we're interested in him this summer. 

[Vincent Vega]

Good signing for Arsenal this. 

[Colonel Bumcunt]

I want us to sign Son from Spurs, but only because I watched his Amazon documentary called Sonsational, which is hilarious.

Sacha Tavolieri is someone I've seen appear on shows on TV in France as a sort of Belgian correspondent, so I don't think he's full of shit, though. 

[Ronnie Whelan]

Doku looks like a raw talent that could be incredible under Jurgen.

 

I liked him when I saw him. Can't remember what Belgium game I watched him (maybe Italy) but he scared the shit out of some very good defenders.

I thought it looked like he was trying a bit to hard to get the goal himself. Young so could develop out of this, but seeing him shoot every time while Mo is making runs for him could be an issue.

 

Big talent though, great touch.

He is rapid, and could turn into something special under Jurgen. Guess it depends on negotiation now.

[TheHowieLama]

Young, fast, direct with a good touch.

 

If he could finish he would be world class...

[M_B]

We approached him when he was 15 (and he spoke to Klopp, Gerrard, and Mane) so there could be some truth to this.

Heavy Sigurdsson energy here.

Looks like he's going to Leicester. Wonder if Southampton bid for Phillips?

Doku:

 

"I was able to discuss with Jurgen [Klopp], Mane, [Georginio] Wijnaldum… [Steven] Gerrard too. I talked a lot with Mane but we didn't really talk about football. We talked about everything.

"He told me that I was young, that I still had time… he wasn't trying to convince me or to say to me 'come here, you will succeed'.

"I preferred to be careful. I know what my trajectory had to be. That’s why, at 15, I told myself it had become serious, because I’d seen my career. I know what route I needed to take and I knew at that moment I needed to stay at Anderlecht.

"As soon as I’m asked if I regret it, I always say no, because if Liverpool came to me at 15, if they like me, they’ll come back later, that’s certain. It’s up to me to be play well

Doku only moved to Rennes last year for like £20m. Rennes would want significantly more than that.

I’ve seen £38m mentioned. 
 

Seems like our type of player - young, already good but plenty of future scope to improve.

Anyone else singing this to the tune of Father and Son?

Probably a little outside of what FSG's sweet spot has been as it is pretty big dough for a youngster but I think they realize they need to transition to finding talent earlier, like a season or two earlier, without an additional transfer in between to bump the price up.

 

[Bobby Hundreds]

Never watched Doku  I've read a bit about how his finishing is shite which is concerning the one thing we need is someone composed infront of goal. I've never seen him though or have any idea of his potential. 

[Babb'sBurstNad]

I think I'm mixing up Doku and Daka.

[Anubis]

Abraham has delayed a decision on moving to Italy for a few days while Arsenal decide if they’re going to bid. A boyhood Arse fan apparently.

Nobody coming in until someone leaves by the sounds of it. 

 

[Bobby Hundreds]

You'd just take a loss on shaq and origi, what's the point in keeping them around paying a few million pounds wages when they're not really wanted and wasting their own careers. 

 

Next year they'll be worth even less.

Nothing to see here, common sense really, our squad is packed already. I'd be more surprised if he said we were buying players without selling anyone. 

[Captain Turdseye]

UH-OH

 

 

Strap yourselves in boys. It’s gonna be a bumpy ride on the FF for the next three weeks.
