It's Quiet the £250m return

[Lee the Blue]

Sell Nunes to Saudi Arabia in the next week?

"Id happily drive Nunes there myself"

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

€16.5m loan fee alone for Nicolas Jackson.... What's the Akanji deal again?

I can't understand that. What is a loan with an obligation to buy? Surely, that's just buying him!

You do realise what locations will would have to drive through to get there, don't you?

 

[richards30]

I wouldn’t get excited mate, nowt happening.

I dont think so either Rammy, its the hope that kills us though ;-)

 

[IrishBlueSince92]

The window didn't exactly live up to the hype that we heard about all year.

Viana's getting started early looking at targets we heard around March/April
Viana's promising a big overhaul of the squad
Viana's going to be ruthless in getting rid of players

 

[Luke The Blue]

Strange that we just extended Dias contract to 4 years and Lewis’s to 5 years.

Very strange and add to that Haalands ridiculous contract. I see some people suggesting it's just to add value to them but c'mon who's gonna buy Dias?

Khaldoon is a billy bullshitter as well ;-)

 

[yellamcfc]

Three players who would have improved us this window…
Livramento (obviously)
Gibbs-White (energy, tenacity, passing ability)
Bowen (goals and assists from wide areas)

 

[carlosthejackal]

And replace him with who? The window closes in a few hours. Unless we want to bring Cancelo back from Saudi :).

I’ll have a bash , can’t do Sundays though .

These deals that we have done with Akanji loan is why teams wait then take the piss! 2m loan fee I presume they are paying all his wages!?

You can blame FFP/PSR for that.

Kicks the can down the road, when it comes to the recording of any transfer fee in the books. Paying a fee next September instead of this September means the outgoings are recorded in a different financial year.

They are not, just some. I don't think the actual number has been revealed yet.

As things stand with a little over three hours left - six summer signings, half of whom are goalkeepers. Four goalkeepers in total, zero RBs, one LB, one striker. 27 players in the squad, not counting Kabore, Mbete and Wilson-Esbrand, and can only register 25. Senior players Akanji and Grealish out on loan.

Mess.

 

[MCFC-Carl-88]

Think Iv resigned my self that no right back is coming in!

Makes it even stranger that Akanji did a job there in the treble season yet he’s been bombed out.

I’d love to hear what the plan was at the start of the summer because I’m not sure it’s gone to plan at all.

Forgot about Frank Spencer - is he still on our books?

 

[skillman]

I'll probably (definitely) get shit for this but...I'd have loved us to offer Mahrez a cheeky return. He shits all over our current wingers and would be a brilliant pillar for them to learn from. Especially Savinho and Bobb as left-footed right wingers.

 

[John Wayne]

Yes, I checked and he's back from his loan at Northampton.

I see what you did there ;)

Fcuk me! When you see some of the other deals we can’t give players away

[bluemc]

Believe it when I see it, there's been a summer of bullshit coming out of Galatasary.
