Summer 2024 transfer window thread.

[Rabid Wolf]

Just seen a link to French midfielder, Offal Giblets, but don't believe it as it's come out of Turkey.

His agent Bernard Matthews denied there's any truth in this.

 

[Mile End Wanderer]

Who was the Turkish striker we was apparently after?? Kılıçsoy??

OK, fair enough. It was just that your post was only around 6 posts after my post about Semedo. Btw, I haven't 'flattered myself', just looking for clarification and royally ****ed-off that posters use the 'agenda' word as a dig at posters who have differing opinions to themselves. Similarly, posters (not aimed at you) throw around the 'scapegoat' word too often imo, when posters have genuinely held criticisms of some players.

I didn't even read your post.....some have a agenda against Semedo it's clearly obvious, some have an agenda against our Korean forward who has hit double figures for goals this season....

If ya read the verdict thread and team for Luton thread , some might say that disco has an agenda against Bouba Traore.....none of it makes any of us right or wrong....but if we disagree with something someone says we can't respond to it....

On Semedo I think you will struggle to find many fans this season who won't say Semedo has done well...And if you was ranking the players I would say out of all the defenders in the squad he has arguably been the best and most consistent... alongside Ait nouri if you class him as a defender....I would probably give him 7/10.... especially with the amount of minutes he has played...Don't mean I think he is brilliant, just like I said he wasn't brilliant against Bournemouth...just said after his injury absence he seem to have of the best attitude and application....that's all...

As I say it was at at you....100%......

 

[Woburn Wolf]

Could do worse. The problem for me would be a) wages and b) injury record. Wages might be less of a problem if he doesn't have somewhere to go.

He is a quality player, although clearly has problems mentally and physically (the former not of his own making) and would need good management. Is very motivated to get back to playing at the top level (wants to be at World Cup 26, whether he can with all of the talent England have there is kind of moot).

GON would seem to be ideal as a manager to get him playing and performing. He was one of England's best players at Russia 2018 and class is permanent.

But won’t pass the AH test. GON has built a great team spirit that needs to be at the forefront in all future recruitment.

More that he’s got mental health issues rather than he’s as asshole. If someone could get him in the right place mentally he’d certainly be an asset for any team. Really hope it works out for him.

 

[Mile End Wanderer]

Deli Ali free agent. Would you take a risk?

I really can’t see it as much as I’d like to help him out.

Would anyone want James Milner for a year? Lol he probably go back to Leeds but what a model professional he is! In such good shape for his age.

" EXCL: Tosin Adarabioyo will leave Fulham as free agent at the end of the season as he’s already informed the club. Final decision made.Despite new contract proposals, Tosin decides to leave and he will be available as free agent with several clubs keen on signing him."

Worth a shout.

Nailed on for Spurs I reckon Tosin or Newcastle.....

He'll go to a more ambitious club than us anyway, otherwise he'd have just stayed at Fulham. They'd probably pay him more than us as well.

Whoever gets him signing a very good centre half. Wonder if he will get called up for England next season if he does well at his new club

Yes he has had a move lined up for a bit....hence running his contract down.....

 

[Adrian_Monk]

Neil Warnock says he's the best striker he's ever worked with

Rob Hulse, Jon Stead and Geoff Horsefield are gonna be gutted when they hear that

 

[loppers86]

rob hulse was fantastic with our goal at his mercy.

 

[Aurum Lupus]

Rob Hulse, Jon Stead and Geoff Horsefield are gonna be gutted when they hear that

Tbf he does caveat the statement saying he's never had a really good striker before

Hulse was awesome how we didn’t get him or Ashton off Crewe is criminal.

Remember the story he was recommended Drogba but didn’t think much of him in the French second division lol

Haha hadn't heard that. I suspect every manager has a story about the one they missed though

Warnock could have signed Chelsea legend for just £100k and rues not chasing tip off

Didier Drogba made his name as one of world’s best strikers during his days at Chelsea – but his career could have gone on a very different trajectory. Legendary manager Neil Warnock ha…

Any add ons for Coady being promoted?

£1m apparently. Not to be sniffed at!

 

[hollo]

1 million for coady. Now go and buy Noah lemina.

Did wonder thanks! Every penny counts eh

How’s he been doing in the background?

Do we need to rush for some reason?

 

[Mile End Wanderer]

Do we need to rush for some reason?

Does he add any value, or are we signing him so he can be close to Mario? Nice gesture

 

[Minimalist]

Let’s hope it wasn’t linked to a certain number of appearances, which he probably wouldn’t have met.

 

[Minimalist]

Would Carlton Morris be a good target for us if Luton go down?

 

[Evthewolf]

Would Carlton Morris be a good target for us if Luton go down?

Don’t think he suits our style. I admittedly haven’t seen that much of him but he looks a bit slow and deliberate. As a back up, perhaps but I really hope we go and get a striker of the calibre that will make a real difference.

 

[JOSWolf]

Would Carlton Morris be a good target for us if Luton go down?

I wouldnt be going for him. Need someone more mobile than he is.

 

[lets all have a disco]

Akor Adams from Montpellier might be worth a look..... definitely the physical, work rate type of forward we need without breaking the budget.....
If we can't get En Nesryri....

 

[Beeches wolf]

£1m... no need to raise ticket prices now.!

Budgeted for 17th and worst we can finish is 14th too. That's a good few million extra

 

[Mile End Wanderer]

Budgeted for 17th and worst we can finish is 14th too. That's a good few million extra

Last season it was this apparently

• 9th – Brentford – £138.7m
• 10th – Fulham – £138.1m
• 11th – Crystal Palace – £133.3m
• 12th – Chelsea – £137.7m
• 13th – Wolves – £124.6m
• 14th – West Ham – £129m
• 15th – Bournemouth – £117.5m

Still a good chance we can finish 12th if we beat Palace even a point should be good enough for 13th

11th or 12th would be nice. To improve last seasons position with arguably somewhat a weaker squad….
