Young was a utility signing. I said I hoped for 3 starters at the beginning of the window - DCM, AMC, AMR - and we have signed one of them so far - Buendia. Two big signings to come I feel. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a difference between getting a back up player who can cover a bunch of positions well for a couple of million for a 1 year deal and signing a player for 15m a year who is demanding a few years to sign. Nope, nada, no way. He said he isnt going to Sevilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 50% sell-on clause for PSG is madness. Before covid they were looking for 30 million so probably seemed a good deal at the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't remember a signing you failed with over the last years, some have been absolutely super signings. What's the secret? Oh we have definitely had some absolute stinkers, Perez in 2019 for £30m was pretty shocking, the whole mess with Adrien Silva being late registered and cost £22m, Musa for £17m, Slimani (although not completely bad) for £28m So we do buy the occasional bad player, but it does tend to be when we go out of our zone away from young players Edited June 18, 2021 by Fox1884 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox1884 Posted June 18, 2021 Visiting Supporter Share Posted June 18, 2021 Celtic apparently want £25m for Edouard - no wonder we moved onto Daka - and now he is considering staying for the final year and leaving on a free next summer We can have a fight for him next summer on a free https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/odsonne-edouard-considering-celtic-stay-24345715 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
string28 Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 I would think if rogers wants him he would get him just before the window closes. Plus what about arsenal wanting Maddison for 60 million lol would of thought it be more like 90 or 100? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he leaves it'll be on transfer deadline day when they panic. Surely they'd be better off cashing in 15-20m than 1 extra year of service Any idea how much you've bid for Daka?

jacketspuds Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Edouard could be a deadline day transfer for West Ham after everyone else has turned down Celtic’s ridiculous demands. Oh well, Myron Boadu it is then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beastmix Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 If we're in for a few short term (1 or 2 years max) veteran signings this summer, it simply means they are placeholders for the youth players who are a year or two off being ready for the rigours of the Prem. It's a good investment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d actually prefer them to take Maddison and us get ESR. Something about Maddison puts me off, even though I think he’s a very good player. Probably a bit irrational tbf. ESR would be my favourite signing of the summer if it happens. He moves like Grealish with the ball. Imagine having him, Jack and Buendia in the side. Filth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe but i would say Belgium league is stronger than Austrian, Wesley had a better record in Europe English teams put 21 past Austrian teams in last 6 games in Europe with Jose Spurs getting 14 of them without playing Kane 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
