It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

[Lavinda Past]

This might be a long shot but could we about to make the deal that has not happened for however many years which has alluded us and wanted desperately to happen especially two years ago to finally get messi this summer.

@tolmie's hairdoo

Bloody hell, I hope not. He's nothing but a shirt seller now. I wouldn't pay him in washers.

Torres out Alvarez in
Serge out Haaland in
Mendy out ????
Fernandinho out ???
So these are the “clear “ gaps although you could argue Cancelo has been converted to inverted LB
So the squad space is RB.
So two in for those and then depends who goes
If others come in or not?
is that about the situation given we can use more subs next season.?

Yep if nobody goes a full back and a DM. If Jesus goes we might not replace him.

Good shout that… (crosses fingers)

Bernardo staying….That would hardly “melt the internet!”

It may cost more than Frenkie.

Melt the internet.

b..b..b..b..Bebé?

Surely not. Mind you, that was one of my all time favourite transfers

No but it would make many of us happy. I just cannot think who this Melt the internet player might be. The video clue about getting back together etc John Secada (sp) one .. I can only think Bellingham getting back together with Earling or Sancho. That’s it

A midfielder that will cost more than FDJ.

I haven't a clue either.

Unless it's Bellingham but is he a Fernandinho replacement? Also didn't Tolmie say that was for next year?

It may cost more than just buying FDJ to ensure “only cockroaches are roaming the earth” etc.
In other words we’d like FDJ but also someone else as well, (cos he alone wouldn’t cost us £100million).

That was my take anyway; that it was nothing about getting a more expensive midfielder - it was about getting more than just 1 more player.

 

[Cobwebcat]

When Tolmie says something like this I always think I don’t care if we get the player or not but I want to know who it was. I NEVER remember to go back and ask.

Not many centre mids who wud cost 100mill maybe its a wide player.

I took it as 2 players totalling 100 mill.

If one was more expensive than FDJ then that’s a 60 mill (at least) midfielder leaving 40 or less for the right back.

I see what you mean but he said Bellingham in a year plus Dortmund wouldn’t sell both in one window.
