Summer Transfer Thread, (Closes 8pm tonight)


Recommended Posts

Err some of these players will have to stay considering the squad is already bare bones whether we bring more in or not

 

Will they?

 

- Downing isn't being considered for selection

- Guedioura isn't either and hasn't played a minute of preseason

- We're actively looking for a player in Baptiste's position

- We have FOUR goalkeepers, so one of Ripley and Mejias will probably go

- Gestede is, as best, 3rd choice striker, at worst, 5th choice

 

I think that all 5 could leave and it wouldn't hugely affect us.

 

If Baptiste goes we'll need 2 new CBs. I can't see him going.

 

Why do we need 5 CBs? Ayala, Fry, Gibson and Baptiste is enough. If Baptiste leaves, we'll get Shotton/Flint in to replace him, but I don't see the need for an additional one on top of that.

One of those is injury prone, one is unproved, one if better than anyone else in this division and one is a league 1 player.  Yeah, we need 2 more; Flint and Bartley please.

There's now a clear favourite in the Connor Ripley chase. May happen next day or so. Buy.

 

any indication who

 

No but i'd guess Blackburn, Bristol C or Oldham

 

Blackburn have Raya and Leutweiler, it won't be them

"Gaston's gone to Syria"

 

Am I missing something? Would someone care to explain?

 

It's probably a joke based on Serie A

 

That's the low point of a day that have included numerous tortured Fray Bentos puns.

Guys, why so Serie A's?

As Tom said there's been A Series of horrendous puns already.

3 or 4 different people on fmttm have all said they've heard Kent and ojo are both joining, if there's truth in that I'd think traore must be off, also wouldn't shock me if we bought ojo rather than loaned, fits our criteria perfect and Liverpool are open to sell, not sure they'd want to sell Kent though.

it wants to be Bristol City in a deal for Flint

 

There might be something in this, you know. Flint was supposedly going to move earlier this week, and yet he hasn't yet. Ripley was made available over a week ago, and we haven't heard anything on that, either. Blackburn, who wanted him, have looked elsewhere. This could all be because we have been haggling over the two players.

Meanwhile, we haven't gone back in for Shotton, despite probably only being £500,000 or so away in valuation from what Birmingham want. That could mean he isn't our first choice.
