The Transfer Thread 2019/20 - everything not Wolves

[MARKakaJIM]

Probably the most over rated player in the PL. A hybrid of Danny Batth and Richard Stearman. Charging gormlessly into midfield does not make you a ball carrying centre half.

Think his ability on the ball is the least of his concerns personally, he's generally very good at that aspect. He seems to have much bigger issues with concentration, alarming the amount of times he just seems to let men drift off him in dangerous areas because he's too busy ball watching, bit of an English David Luiz vibe about him.

Agree with this, very overrated in that aspect in particular. Gets turned very easily by the better, quick players he faces I think.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

You try turning quickly with a heid that size. It's got its own gravitational pull.

 

[lemonjelly]

seventy mill for Maguire? Ridiculous. Wrong on so many levels.
Man U don't seem to learn. Another closed season of spaffing large volumes of cash. It could be a steve bruce type gamble with no actual plan on how to use the players effectively.

 

[Lycan]

Ndombele signs for Spurs.

Top player and a really good fit for their team.

 

[Nando]

Ayoze Perez off to Leicester.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Little surprised by that

 

[Johnny75]

Newcastle have to be favourites to go down with Villa and Norwich.

Newcastle have to be favourites to go down with Villa and Norwich.

Without a doubt. Rudderless.

They've just lost their manager and strike pairing, with no replacements anywhere near. If we lost Nuno, Jota and Raul we'd probably go down.

 

[Premier Quality]

Sky sources understand Newcastle have this evening agreed a fee with Leicester for the sale of Ayoze Perez.

We understand Leicester have a deal in place to buy the Spaniard for £30m.

The player still needs to have a medical and agree personal terms but it is understood Perez is keen on a move to Leic.

THIRTY MILLION? Fucking hell Brendan, that’s insane

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

He isn’t worth that. Not by a long chalk.

 

[Nando]

He's a good player. £30m is pretty much the going rate for a good Premier League player nowadays m

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I think it is ten million heavy.

 

[Premier Quality]

I wouldn’t want him for £5m tbh

33 goals in 143 games - plus I think he’s lightweight.

 

[The Bear]

He's a decent striker. Proven in the league. £30m is about right IMO.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

It’s a rip off.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

It’s a rip off.

One less league goal than Jimenez last season, 3 years in his favour, very similar price.

 

[PuntsWolf]

I’ve seen lots of people saying it’s a rip off which is strange considering we’ve just paid more for an older Jiminez and we consider that a bargain?

Plus, transfer fees mean nothing these days which we often like to point out. You pay what it costs, not what they are worth.

 

[Johnny75]

He's a decent striker. Proven in the league. £30m is about right IMO.

I'd agree with this Bear. Looks about right to me in this inflated and short market.

 

[YoungWolf]

Perez is a very good footballer and looked like he had finally become a more consistent performer last season. I’d have taken him here
