useless Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 As a championsihp club we still should be able to sign some good players, ones that you wouldn't nornally expect to go to the championship. Wouldn't surrprise me all that much if we actually managed to sign better players than we did last summer, and if our squad ended up being stronger than it is now.

I got the impression his development has stalled a bit since his breakthrough at Ajax 2-3 years ago, perhaps one we could look to sign? Edit: Just seen he got Nice player of the year so bit out of our range. Edited June 29, 2020 by VillaChris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 10 hours ago, sne said: Angel Gomez seem to be leaving Manure "on a free". Anyone know anything about his intentions? I know he's been linked to some big clubs but is he someone who might take a move backwards to get more regular game time or will he move to another big club. Also, is he any good? I would guess that he's already got an offer on the table, from either a European club or another PL club. He's represented England at three age groups, so there's potential there. It seems he's unwilling to sign the contract he was offered, was that because his agent has found a club willing to offer him more cash now or because he thinks he will develop as a player better elsewhere? Either way, I would think it's unlikely that he will move too far down the league, if he stays in England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thabucks Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 I have been told we very interested in for Adrian Grbic from Clermont Foot regardless of what happens this summer. 23 yo Austrian also linked to Brighton, Rangers & Celtic.

useless Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Centre-forward wth seventeen goals and four asssts in twenty-six appearances in Ligue 2. Indeed seems to be good at free-kicks. Was thinking just recently wouldn't surprise me if we tried to get a few bargains from France this transfer window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thabucks Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Could be nothing and was just passing in what I was told and I’m by no ways ITK just used to work for OUFC and heard it from an old colleague who is still in the game. He told me of our interest in Mateta last summer before his injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor me, I read loads of comments to that effect and it baffles me every time. Man City are like 4-5 levels above us. Grealish is 'maybe' just about their level, on a good day - and helped by him being British (for the quota). Luiz is 2-3 levels below Jack. He wouldn't even get into City's bench. I think we're in a good position with Luiz, he stays, he proves himself and we tell him we will accept good offers the following year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably unlikely but they are losing David Silva, Fernandinho is about 35 now and De Bruyne may also leave if they get banned from CL so there could be a void in CM for them in near future. He's certainly not good enough to get in their team but Pep was gushing over his potential not so long ago and I really don't think that was just to get him a work permit. As we've seen with him this season really good coacing ironing out his flaws on the training pitch and you have a good midfielder. Perhaps Man. City will buy him back and loan him out to an RB Leipzig standard team for the season to really sharpen him up. They've done that with Angelino who's played well and should challenge for a Man. City place next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djemba_Villan Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Thing is Smith when asked about it ages ago said that if Man City did execute the buyback it would represent a 'signigicant profit' for us. Rumour (albeit consistent rumour) puts it at £25m is activated this season and £30m thereafter. If that happened would it be the worst news? He's improving agreed, but it would be the first profit on a player we sold since I can't even remember! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted July 2, 2020 Author Share Posted July 2, 2020 There is a pretty interesting kid playing for IFK Norrköping in Sweden. Ísak Bergmann Jóhannesson. 17 y.o Icelandic midfielder who is the son of our ex player Joey Guðjónsson and who was born in Sutton Coldfield no less. He's only just turned 17 so one very much for the future, but he's already on the verge of breaking into the Norrköping starting 11. A team that is the best in the country currently. I've only watched him twice but I have friends down there who follow Norrköping really closely and they say he is something special. Might be someone to scout asap. He will get picked up by a bigger club very soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathan Byrne is usually really good when I see highlights of their games, right wing back and was constant source of crosses v Stoke which lead to two goals. If Gulibert wants to go back to France or something I'd look to get him in as think he has quality to play in premier league and will be going cheap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
