Transfer Rumours/Signed

l.q.navarro.

Brighton + Brentford would've got nearer 50m for him.
Shafted again.

Foxy_Dread

If only he'd got Poveda involved more last year.

Bod

Foxy_Dread I hope you're joking there

Harvest

I'd like to think there are decent add ones. We should have been playing Summerville two years earlier than when he really got going instead of slogging on with the hot/cold Harrison. Or at least had them competing for the same place on form

Foxy_Dread

Bod no I'm not. I'm not suggesting he is a Summerville replacement, but we would have known if he was good enough to shine in this division. At the start of last season, I thought he offered us something different to Dan James and once id seen Anthony play, more than him also.

Dan James did better than I expected but more through force of will than ability.

Against a packed defence I'd have rather turned to Poveda.

He's never had a run of games. It will be interesting to see how he does this year, if he can stay fit.

Bod

It's a low price even with add ons added, but it sounds like Summerville has been talking to West Ham and he could have pushed for this sale, we don't know. At least it gives Leeds time to get a replacement, I'm sure they have names already.

Bod

Foxy_Dread there's a reason he didn't get a run of games because he is an average L1 player, Bielsa didn't rate him, Farke didn't and no way should he get in front of James, Summerville and Gnonto, awful player

Foxy_Dread

Bod let's wait and see.

I'm hoping that Sunderland bought Poveda as a replacement for Jack Clarke who is being sold to Leeds as a replacement for Summerville.
You've got to have a dream otherwise how you going to have a dream come true...

Yep, didn't want to pay the asking price, Leeds wouldn't /didn't need to sell for less..

Bod

They don't need to buy a player like Jack Clarke, they have players who can play on the left, Gnonto of he stays would be first choice, Rutter, Aaronson, even Dan James. They would be better to get a number 10 like Sara from Norwich

Raposa

Might be wrong but fairly sure Poveda didn’t pull up any trees at Blackburn?

Summerville?
25m plus add ons?.. seems about right , more so if nobody else was prepared to shell out more.
Who we now bring in will dictate whether it’s a good deal or not but in all honesty I was more pissed off with the Gray sale.

Foxy_Dread

Raposa he was doing okay when he got a season ending ankle injury.

Raposa

Foxy_Dread
Fair do’s
Similarly I thought he was just okay with us but nowt particularly special.
Remember him coming on against Citeh at ER when we drew 1-1 and causing havoc but other than that not a lot really.
Hope it works out for him at the Mackems.

Foxy_Dread

Raposa his main break with us was under Bielsa, I'm not sure Bielsa was the best manager to get the best out of flair types. Summerville similarly didn't shine when getting a run under Bielsa.

If you want to keep your place for Bielsa out wide it was a case of working your nuts off, and mostly playing the percentages.

Djpekingman

Foxy_Dread He looked great in the U23's, albeit a bit lightweight. He was way too lightweight for championship and premier league footy at that stage. This season past, he looked good early on but faded when defenders realised he was very much a one trick pony (cut inside onto right foot and twat it). Better defenders could stop him and that's one of the things that cost us at the end. West ham already have Bowen, so it makes me wonder where Summerville would fit in.

Foxy_Dread . Kudos . best game of KPs Man City ´career’ at CB last night against Barca apparently

I think we should sneak him back on loan 😁

EEPW

see the 49rs are getting a right pasting by twatters and waccoers for the "reported". 25 million fee. They seem to think he is a 40 million player (which he aint). a step back from it all is needed to see the bigger picture. 2 weeks left of the transfer window, season starts in 10 days. Its obvious we need to replace him and possibly add one more. We could have held out till the last day and got maybe 5 more? then we would be fucked. No time to sign the additional players needed, plus the season would have stated. 25 up front plus 9 in addons is good business. allows us to bring in 2 more quality players (no 10 and maybe a Rb?) Lets judge this window when it closes, so far they have been light years better than Orta in their signings. They need to move quickly though, get any new players bedded in.

Harvest

EEPW We've just signed a right back.

EEPW

Harvest meant LB. haven't had my morning coffee! cover for Firpo, He gets injured or suspended we are a bit light.

Foxy_Dread

Djpekingman he was often doubled up on.

I think the lightweight put down is a cheap and easy one to use. The be all and end all is can they look after the ball. Aaronson is the exception, never have I seen a player on his arse so much without getting a free kick.
