The Summer 2024 Transfer Thread.

[big mean bunny]

Genuine question: are you saying that on all football stats websites his height is wrong? Like he’s just lied about it and no one has ever checked or looked at him?

Look into Daniel Sturridges height. It will probably come up as 1.88m, and there was a couple of FIFA's where he was around that, then go look at him in a team photo or photo with 1.82m Jordan Henderson!

It's actually baffling that there is so much variance on heigh reporting. Particularly with Keepers where loads are listed with rounded up feet and inches, in an attempt to be listed as taller.

You were a professional scout? You did it for a living? This is news!

It isn’t new news. Why do you think he is so intolerant of anybody else’s opinion if it doesn’t match his own? Johnny actually knows what he’s talking about, we’re just plebs.

I didn't realise he was a scout of everything...

Let's face it every transfer thread every time is all supposition and nonsensical rumours. The occasional 'ITK' and Fab/Percy sometimes call a transfer about 30 minutes before the club announce it, it's still fun though.

O'Shea is rapid and as tall as stated then.

 

[Johnny75]

Where's @GoldFlagFlyingHigh when you need him?

He just have the inside scoop on transfers, he's been so spot on all summer, he must know about Ramsdale and O'Shea.

Looks to have a knack of being around trouble but not solving it as well. A shorter, quicker Maximilian if you will.

Unless his height and speed have been listed incorrectly, but I’m not opening that can of worms

I’m all for a few handbags but tagging someone just to have a go is pushing it.

 

[Quirkafleeg]

You are too nice. I think there is a devil on one shoulder telling you to tag @Johnny75 and call him a cunt.

Stengs has borked knee, that’s what scuppered the move to Charlotte. Also he’s not a winger AFAIK.

Granted, we bought Saša…

Well thank god Arsenal want a loan with an obligation for Ramsdale. No need to fret about about the Albyun bastard coming now is there..

It's OK, we can Afobe him next summer

How much is O'Shea supposedly going to cost? If it's anything north of £15m or so I'm assuming they're seeing him as a starter? I don't get the point, just seems like another body. Is he really any better than Toti, Bueno and Dawson?

£15m and yes, although I'd say not better enough. He's also played left (and right) back so Hobbs can add him to his list of players who won't be very good, but can play there.
