The Transfer Thread 2018/19 - everything not Wolves

Chelsea signing Rob Green for the 3rd choice keeper spot

Chelsea signing Rob Green for the 3rd choice keeper spot

I would laugh, but he's not going to play & will just pick up his salary

 

[Kenny]

It's a great gig to get if you aren't arsed about playing any more

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Not to wish injury on anyone, but it would be amusing if Courtois/Caballero/De Gea/Romero were all unavailable for any length of time and Chelsea and United had to play Rob Green and Lee Grant for months. It's a shitty little thing to do to sign some ancient jobber like that. Let a kid be third choice, you're supposed to have the best Academies in the country, use them.

 

[Parkins left foot]

Chelsea only have a youth system to loan out or sell off at some point - they have no intention of developing players for their PL team

Was it Roy Carroll at united who was beyond shite?

Schurrle to Fulham by sounds of it

Schurrle to Fulham by sounds of it

Putting together a decent squad, they are. Still need some defenders, though.

 

[YoungWolf]

I can't believe he is only 27 I thought he was a lot older than that for some reason!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I can't believe he is only 27 I thought he was a lot older than that for some reason!

It's because he's got that Steptoe look about him.

I dunno, he tends to be very streaky (in terms of performances rather than goals, he never scores that many). They did need someone on the right of their front three desperately, that was their weak point at the back end of last season. Everything else looked good in an attacking sense other than whichever of Piazon/Kamara/Ayite they stuck there. Three total shitboxes.

 

[Nando]

His injury record is diabolical.

Monaco confirm the signing of midfielder Jean-Eudes Aholou from Strasbourg.

Atletico Madrid Gelson Martins arrives on a free transfer, signs a six-year deal.

 

[Tony Towner]

Fulham in for Mawson. They are going for it.

 

[YoungWolf]

Wouldn't mind us going for Mawson to be fair, good defender and his range of passing would really suit us too.

 

[Tony Towner]

[Paddingtonwolf]

Fulham in for Mawson. They are going for it.

They have to. Their defence is fucking balls. And they haven't activated those loans either so still no Mitrovic.

 

[Tony Towner]

They have to. Their defence is $#@!ing balls. And they haven't activated those loans either so still no Mitrovic.

Mitrovic is going. I've invested a virtual £1m on it.

 

[Kenny]

They haven't activated those loans either so still no Mitrovic.

Newcastle are being odd on that deal. Rafa has been told he needs to sell before he can buy, so they are asking £25m for him, Fulham don't seem to want to go that high. The fee changes though if Rafa signs a new deal as he does that and he gets money to spend (superbly managed with 2 or so weeks to go in the window)

 

[Lord Knows]

Leeds United agree fee for Patrick Bamford. Around £7m rising to £10m with add-ons.


Newcastle have accepted a bid from Fulham for Aleksandar Mitrovic. The Serb has left their training camp in Portugal to finalise his move to Craven Cottage.
