The Incoming Transfers Everywhere Thread: Summer 2023

[Del Woppio]

The more I watch and read about him, the more excited I get!

Strikes me as being very Vieira like - incredible defensive ability and work rate, lovely weight of pass, capable of driving with the ball, strong, energetic and determined. Him and Nunes either side of Neves has absolutely stacks of ability and potential

I really would like to hear what Phil Vickery thinks. Gold mine of knowledge on South American talent.

What - the Puma's?

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Do you mean Tim Vickery?

“Under former QPR, Swansea, and Leicester boss Paulo Sousa, he is coming on quickly, taking on responsibility as a midfield ball winner with excellent lung power. He needs to calm down a little, but his presence on the field is considerable.”

^small quote from Vickery in the BMail.

EDIT: BMail doesn't know about Oxford Commas, the Philistines.

Yes. Phil Vickery is an ex England rugby player !

5m for Sarabia apparently

Seems they are maxed out on players they can loan out. (No idea if that is true)
So £5m plus some extras

 

[Templeton Peck]

I'd still like his input all the same.

If we only get them together for 6 months its going to be a damn shame. Type of signings we should've been making when we were in Europe.

Veering away from Mendes as well, can't say I'm too upset about that.

What about this bloke ?

 

[PuntsWolf]

I’d imagine Nunes/Lemina/Traore are competing for the same role in the 442 and the same for Neves and Gomes with Moutinho doing a bit of everything.

It’s bloated numbers wise but Traore is out for a while, Gomes isn’t going to be an option for a while as he’s coming from Brazil and hasn’t played since November before we consider adaptation.

Then there’s the chance we could lose 3 of them in the summer anyway.

Sa/Sarkic

Semedo/Jonny/Lembikisa
Ait Nouri/Bueno

Collins/Kilman/NEW/Toti

Neves/Gomes
Nunes/Traore/Lemina

Sarabia/Moutinho

Cunha/Podence/Neto/Hwang/Adama

Raul/Costa

Very solid depth and plenty of ability to shift from 4-4-2 to 4-3-3 and 4-2-3-1.

Isn't Sarabia a central midfielder too? I only know him from FIFA!

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Forward - number 10 or inside right (can't play there for PSG obvs as the competition is a bit fierce)

Lemina, Gomes and Sarabia isn't a bad single day of the window is it?

 

[Kenny]

Lemina, Gomes and Sarabia isn't a bad single day of the window is it?

3 days ago people were losing their shit at the club for dragging their heels and said they would be lining up the usual transfer window excuses.

 

[b3h]

Realised I was thinking of Carlos Soler as the CM
