It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

I think the World Cup actually presents some good opportunities for transfers that wouldn’t have otherwise

Really? I'd think it'd be the opposite for adding depth. They'd want to stay where they are getting to play every single week to make their respective teams.

In what way?

This is not what his report says

What does it say?

What about those who aren’t getting the exposure they want?

As I posted in the Jesus thread, it says we want €60M and an agreement wouldn’t he reached for less than €50M. It’s nothing new, really.

It wasn't so long ago that we would buy up Arsenal's fringe players.

Times have indeed changed.

 

[SWPISHOME]

I would snap Arsenal's hand off for 42 million for Jesus.

Gabby is worth a lot more than £42m.

City special, "we want 60 mil for this guy but will settle for 50 mil, now give us 40 mil or we have no deal."

It could, alternatively it might cause him to stay where he is.

Neymar is a great shout. I'm in

How can it be Neymar?!

Didn't PSG literally sign him to be the face of the Qatar 2022 world cup? Highly doubt they'll be selling Neymar to us 6 months before that event.

Good source. City medical staff on alert for X2 more medicals.

Bellingham is a rumour. But only that. No idea who the other is.

OMFG

 

[Mr-Mertle]

He's objectively not with 12 months left on his deal.

 

[mrbelfry]

No one is keeping a Neymar or Mbappe deal secret. Madrid in particular would have outed Mbappe ages ago if he was signing for any one other than them.

Pogba hype has been and gone and wouldn't break the internet as we've all heard it and moved on. 100% Liverpool aren't selling anyone to us. Messi right now would just be desperate - how many times can you be turned down?

After Haaland who else is having impact though? He is the player we are all waiting to see first game of the season

Bellingham is the only one that gets close that seems vaguely realistic

 

[SWPISHOME]

My bad, I presumed you meant in general as a player. I hold my hands up.

 

[Lavinda Past]

Players are like houses and used cars... They're only worth what someone offers for them.

Some players are worth selling below perceived value just to get them off the books to create room for a (hopefully) better player. Jesus, Mahrez and Sterling fall into that category imo.

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

Swap deal with FDJ involved ?

 

[Deleted member 87819]

The press is portraying Haaland’s signing as reason for us to part ways with a bunch of players. Uh, no. We have a small squad and he’s only one player
