I heard a  rumour late last night about Ollie watkins.

 It involves  contract negotiations involving his management company...plus a HEAVY interest from one certain london club who want to nail him down early in the window.

This could be interesting if true.

so it looks like he might turn down new crontract emty has done a lot for his game

I think the dates of the transfer window are a bit of an irrelevance as clearly agreements are being made, deals done etc. and despite the links we don’t appear close with anyone.

Possibly the Alemany situation slowed us right down and we are waiting to get a SD in place before progressing anything. Or things are moving along nicely with a couple of targets and we just haven’t heard yet. Who knows?

If it relates to getting an SD in though how effective would anyone be when they have literally just landed at a club? I would presume our targets are already identified rather than expecting someone who has barely set foot off the plane to identify and recruit the perfect upgrades unless we intend to do our business late in the window meaning any new signing would not feature in pre season.

Will be interesting to see how it all pans out.

we will miss out on players thelonger it draws on  sureley they can carry on

a big no to adams very average

I think our most important signing of the summer could be retaining Kirsty Hanson, either on loan again or permanent transfer. Her goals, assists, running power were so impressive last season. Such an asset.

She’s a good age as well at only 25, whereas Daly, Dali, Nobbs and Staniforth are all 30 or over.

how old is patten if get her back

looks as though hampton thinks she is above us

now we have got into europe ironic we might finf it harder to get players

what country is laporte

We will have European football next season and will hopefully go deep in one cup competition. In that context Tielemans would be a sensible addition to the squad.

 

By the way, how come all went quiet on Matteo Guendouzi?

 

 

they should just back emry  and not frees like tielemans probaly purslow doing

Isn’t that what Emery does though, he has history of buying out of form players and bringing them into form.  I’m not advocating for Tielemans at all but a link like this doesn’t surprise me because I always expected players that have looked rubbish recently but looked good in the past are sometimes the players Emery goes for. 

thought we got outof that we need to buy players in form amnd proven in good side

I think we’re trying to stretch our budget with a free or two. I’d be happy with Tielemans as comp for that RM/McGinn role.

If we got him on a free I’d like us to try for Arda Guler though too. I know Newcastle are sniffing but he’d be a good young player to pick up now before his stock rises further. 

cant be much of a budget

Tielemans is still 25/26 isn't he?

Leicester should've cashed in last summer and he lost his way there in last 18 months but top quality when on form for them.

I can remember some ITK last August saying we were interested in him so perhaps this is more club/Lange deal regardless of who the coach is.

I actually don't think it would be a bad pickup. Guy with excellent premier league and european experience who can chip in with goals and decent passing and not like he'll just be starting every week if he's playing poorly given how much quality we've got in central midfield now.

Different profile but he could be Dendoncker's replacement for all we know. Or just replace Sanson and Nakamba in our general squad given both will be moving on permanently soon.

Tielemans.... why.

Not an upgrade on anything we have.

I don't care if he's free he's lazy and crap.

A complete waste of wages.

 

dont want him  another free kamara omly good free   if thats the standard were aiming for i will be very dissapointed and shows lange should be moved on

fingers crossed and stuff, but i hope we do manage to get a few big signings through the door, rather than end up being rejected by our top targets....and ending up with something else/substandard....

think that will happen
