The Incoming Transfers Everywhere Thread: Summer 2023

[Kenny]

They saw a lever in Neves plus us chucking £30m for Ansu as giving them Messi money.

We aren’t interested. End of story.

More a case of Xavi isn't interested. Looks like it was discussed at some level, whether it was just Jorge throwing some idea's around, don't know but the whole purpose of his visit to Barca was to get their transfer strategy sorted

 

[Alan]

Seems weird from Xavi to me.

Bring him in, christen him the "next Busquets", and *boom*, Ruben has immunity from referees for the rest of his career in Spain. Win-win.

I don’t think either of us are interested frankly.

Agreed. Plus from our side, we need to generate money from the sale of Neves, not give him away PLUS money for someone else who's got no guarantee of succeeding in this league. I wasn't convinced by the rumours of that swap deal from the get go, so thank God Romano has put a nail in that coffin today.

As we've seen before in previous transfer windows, business can move very quickly when it gets going - and none of us are privy to the ins and outs of what Utd or Newcastle have to spend; but I'd be surprised if neither of them are interested in Ruben. Have to say, Utd really should be going all out for Harry Kane.

Please sell him, Wolves.

 

[Alan]

Fabio nooooooo

I mean, I'd sell him for being shit but why so bent out of shape over this?

 

[Del Woppio]

Oh dear. He looks everybody's 13 year old sister after getting braids on a family holiday to Benidorm

He looks like he and Simons are about to start a Korn cover band.

I was thinking it might be a bromance thing.

 

[big mean bunny]

He looks like Road Dogg for those of the WWE early 2000s era.

 

[Loki]

oh, just give him away.

 

[Quirkafleeg]

I know you read this forum Fabio, don't listen to them, I think you look pretty cool and was thinking about having braids and now you've sold it to me. Respect Fabio.

Apparently he thinks Neves can’t defend

 

[The Bion]

oh, just give him away.

Now

 

[Jolemai]

The TWF cover of the RHCP classic isn't off to a good start imo.

As far as I’m aware, everyone is having a laugh (except you).

I wouldn’t be against flipping him for a quick profit. Not been massively impressed so far - possibly another one that doesn’t suit the league?

Tbf I do have a lot of respect for Fab clearly not giving a fuck. There's something to be admired there.

 

[Del Woppio]

Yeah I'd get shot tbh. He's nowhere near quick or direct enough to be an inside forward, he's either got to be used centrally off a 9 or not at all in the PL. He's a good footballer, presses well and has good movement, but we don't play in a way that's gonna make him work
