The Incoming Transfers Everywhere Thread: Summer 2023

Agreed. Hope he's one of our "back up" options, should Scott fail, rather than a first choice target.

I'd hope not they're completely different players.

Those are the type of signings I’m on board with for sure, and seems in line with most of of our January work (one notable exception of course)

Ooof, I like him and think he'll be suited to the PL. £7.7m is a good price. From what I've read, he didn't have the best season last time around but I think that might be a case of him wanting a fresh start. Mochengladbach have offered him a new contract but he hasn't signed it. Could be a great deal for all parties (if true - I don't know how reliable O'Rourke has been recently?).

£7.7M is significantly less than I was expecting.

 

[Greenfield Wolf]

I mentioned this at the weekend

 

[The Bear]

£7.7M is significantly less than I was expecting.

Indeed. The link I posted a couple of days back had him rated nearer €15m.

Little Liam now reporting it too.

I guess Elvedi would be back up for Dawson with an eye on the future. Never seen him play but an experienced, international 26 year old for that money seems very good business.

 

[Del Woppio]

Presuming he has more than one leg then he can replace Kilman, and we can have the £30m steadily devaluing on the bench

 

[Lycan]

I'm pretty sure Elvedi is right sided so I imagine he'd be competing with Dawson. Kilman/Toti on the left.

Kilman hasn't signed that contract yet though, still time for him to move. If he does we'd need to sign a left sided CB. Hopefully we've got a few options in that position ready to sign if Napoli do come back with a better offer.

Nah, this time next year, Kilman and Elvedi will be considered the best CB partnership outside the top 6 clubs.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I wouldn't get too tied down on having a left/right CH combo (at least, I hope Lopetegui isn't). It's a nice to have, not an essential. Just pick the two best defenders providing they work well together.

Nice video of Scott’s performance in the cup against Albion here, by the way.

No Doc punch ups all day but you just couldn't leave it alone could you?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

We need to mobilise, like Juve.

I'm finding it hard to get too worked up over Doherty coming back but it is such a pointless signing.

We briefly got the best out of him then got rid for a reason. Even if he hadn't got worse since we sold him, he's won't even be anywhere near fit. It's just laughable

 

[AndyWolves]

I'll forgive them if they can do some kind of Doc / Great Scott pun in the reveal video.
