The Transfer Thread 2016/17 - everything not Wolves

[Nando]

£30m for Jordan Pickford.

Good talent, but an absolutely absurd fee.

 

[Tony Towner]

Yet Wolves fans expect £25m for Costa

Good talent, but an absolutely absurd fee.

I remember people saying this about Rio when he moved to Leeds and then Man Utd. He was worth every penny.

Yet Wolves fans expect £25m for Costa

Because attacking players, strikers always command a bigger fee then goalkeepers.. Even more so in this day and age of ludicrous transfer fees for players outside of the Prem.

Talk of Assombalonga to Boro.

Perennial tenuous link to Wolves Peter Whittingham has joined Blackburn.

 

[Tony Towner]

Leicester bid £17m for Harry Maguire. Remember the days when we were linked with him and the general consensus was he was a slightly younger Danny Batth?

 

[Tony Towner]

Blues signing David Stockdale. We should have done that deal.

Was always a far better footballer than Batth, similar issues pace wise but that's about the only common trait.

£30m for Jordan Pickford.

Good talent, but an absolutely absurd fee.

The TV money in the Prem has inflated fees to a ridiculous degree.

30m now is probably closer to what 10m was just a few years ago.

Harry Maguire to Leicester for £17m?

He looked good for Hull last season. Who was it on here that said that when we were interested he was no better than Danny Batth? There careers have gone in different direction since.

 

[Nando]

£47m for two English players who've played in 62 Premier League games between them, both of whom were relegated.

I think the line was that you couldn't pair the two and in L1 there didn't seem much to split them.

I don't think Maguire looks particularly good now tbh. Certainly not £17m worth even in this market.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Lindelöf to United confirmed.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

And Bayern continue to buy ALL THE PLAYERS. Corentin Tolisso in from Lyon, £35m.

I tipped him for stardom about four years ago (we shall ignore all my other tips for the top which never happened. God damn you Jack Rodwell)

 

[Freddeno]

Lindelöf to United confirmed.

good player, not finished product though

 

[jd1981]

Blues have made a contract offer to John Terry.

 

[Quirkafleeg]

Exeter City could make a contract offer to him as well...

 

[Lord Knows]

Huddersfield Town are close to completing a transfer for loan star Aaron Mooy for an initial £8m

 

[jd1981]

Love to know what wages there offering him, plus sounds like harry might fill his squad full of old timers on big wages then make a sharp exit when it all goes a bit pear shaped.

 

[Nando]

Blues reportedly willing to offer 100k a week. Hello bankruptcy.
