Then did o.k at Milan but picked up loads of injuries (had no idea he was at Lazio). Might not be the worst shout to replace Engels given he's still only 30. He was pretty shit in Milan, they were happy to get rid of him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Man Utd linked to Camanvinga and supposedly only £30m, seems very cheap for someone so highly regarded. French international at 18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems odd if PSG are not in for him but I guess they have other priorities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Some random transfers for the 'players you forgot existed' thread. Britt Assombalonga has gone to Turkish football, joining Adana Demirspor. Leaving Turkey are Benik Afobe (from Trabzonspor to Millwall on loan) and Lukas Podolski (Antalyaspor to Gornik Zabrze in Poland). And a couple of promotion-back-to-Championship moves on frees, one being Mario Vrancic from Norwich to Stoke, and the other being Emiliano Marcondes (who scored one of the goals in the playoff final) going from Brentford to Bournemouth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good for both parties Norwich seem to still think they are in the Championship in selling their best player to us and bringing in a lad on loan for the season. Where is their ambition?

Where is their ambition? Lets be avin you. Not sure how they played him but I would lazily guess as an outsider looking in that he replaces Skipp who's gone back to Spurs and that he's an upgrade They got raschica to replace buendia Agree in general though they're not particularly ambitious, puuki didn't do enough last time so not sure why they think he'll be enough this time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wurzel Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Must admit I'm enjoying this summer's transfer window just for the meltdown from Arsenal fans on social media and youtube. Endless fun. Please Villa put in a bid for Saka. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they could have a group that make bogarde blush, they'll never earn that kind of money anywhere else, maybe not even half of it Why should they leave? Especially to mid table clubs, the big boys aren't going to touch them, coutinho would do well to get a move to us or Everton or West ham, maybe spurs are daft enough to go in for one of them pretending to be a competitive big boy At best Liverpool might be tempted to get him as the replacement for shaqiri and his 20 sub appearances a season Edit - eurosport reporting that pjanic and umtiti are in negotiations to terminate their contracts, mental Edited July 6, 2021 by villa4europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 (edited) So Barcelona are signing players, paying them even though they can’t register or play them because they wage bill was already MILES too big. Wow, that’s a whole new level of badly run. Messi off the wage bill now too, but I assume they need to make enough headroom to get him back on it. Coutinho to the PL on loan is a decent shout but probably only a drop in the ocean. Edited July 6, 2021 by Genie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise I don't really get why the players would consider it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
