I still have a feeling that the Genk friendly was an opportunity to allow Tresor to see us up close and try to convince him to join us.

Tresor linked to Fulham in the Belgian press this morning.

I was thinking today that we might not be far off done this window, but when you look at the teamsheet today and see that Genk had far more players in their matchday squad, I was wondered if we still might be 3-4 players light.

agreenwood

For all our youth system is criticised for not producing players for our first team, it’s certainly churning out far more players who make decent careers in the EFL than was the case 10 years ago. We’re also starting to command modest fees for players.

agreenwood

Andy’s Man Club are an excellent organisation. I know more than one person who has come out of the other side of their mental health battle thanks to AMC’s help.

Look after yourself Mick.

agreenwood

You might be right, bodies still to come in but in regards to our attacking fluidity I just don’t see kompany sending a player on from the bench he didn’t intend to use. Felt like kompay used today like a league game, making subs like he would in a league game Maybe, but we didn’t have another out ...

Hadn’t see that Jay wasn’t on the bench, but still you understand my point that Kompany doesn’t seem the type to give someone minutes who he doesn’t have plans for

Not sure about that. Personally think there’s 3-4 still come in. We might look very different by September.

If kompany didn’t intend of weghorst being at the club then he wouldn’t of been sub for foster, it would have been jay rod

Depends on Jayrod’s fitness situation. Jay wasn’t on the bench. The teamsheet looked light on numbers.

So you agree with my post then?

No cos you go to wine bars apparently.

I've got no problem with fans booing players that they are unhappy about playing for the club. It's football. It's fans. Personally I've never done it myself although if we had signed Simon Garner or David Dunn back in the day, I would have been sorely tempted. The club only have themselves to blam...

agreenwood

I don’t think Weghorst will be here on 2 September and I won’t be particularly disappointed, but until he goes we should support him (or at least refrain from booing him). For all we know he might be in VK’s plans. Whether he can cut it in the PL is a separate discussion to how he “behaved”. I suspe...

He said he didn’t want to play for us again, do you kinda understand that.

Did he? Feel free to share the quotes.

agreenwood

Really ****, even it was only 2 fans.

Sneer away about those criticising the boo boys if you like, but this is the exact opposite of the togetherness we’ll need next season.

If VK decides we need him, we need to back him.

agreenwood

Ship had probably sailed anyway, but Brentford after Tresor.

agreenwood

Same guy who broke the Coulibaly story…

agreenwood

Leeds trying to sign Taylor apparently. Hard to see that happening any time soon with the dearth of players we have in the position.

agreenwood

It’d be a surprise if we signed any more attacking midfielders/wingers. We’ve now got Zaroury, Benson, Twine, JBG, Redmond and the young Italian to come in. Amdouni also supposedly likes to play no10.

Left back and central midfield would be the priorities for me from here, unless anyone leaves.

agreenwood

Didn’t quite follow the whole post, but if they’ve divided the cost (to you) of your season ticket by the number of home games, they’ve given you back what you paid for it. That seems fair.

agreenwood

Maatsen will be one of a number of targets for his position. He’s probably the preference because he’ll take less bedding in.

We’ll certainly be signing someone in his position I’d say. Can’t see VK wanting to start the season with Taylor or Vitinho there.

agreenwood

We’ve not had too many of our youth prospects trumpeted too loudly in recent times, but the ones that are do seem to have terrible luck with injuries.

agreenwood

Fair play to Maatsen, but whether he comes here or not it seems highly unlikely that he’ll play much at Chelsea next season. Just look at their squad - they haven’t finished spending this summer.

agreenwood

I might be misreading this, but we do seem to have developed a clear strategy of identifying multiple acceptable targets and making it clear that we won’t be held to ransom, moving on quickly when it appears we’re into a bidding war or stand off. It looks like that was the case was Verbruggen and Mi...

This confirmed? Would probably have preferred to do this one than Betis if i'd have known

No. It was on Twitter this morning early on. They also predicted the Benfica game, so no reason to think it’s not right. Doesn’t say where it’ll be played tho.

agreenwood

Supposedly playing Mainz away on 5 August too.

agreenwood

Not at £25m we won’t be.

Transfer fees have kicked on again in the 12 months we’ve been out of the league.

agreenwood

No idea, but if we can’t, we won’t stay up for long.

I suspect the average PL wage for a first team player is higher than £40k a week.

If that’s what Trafford will be on and it makes him one of our highest earners, it shows what we’re up against.

agreenwood

Hasn’t Trafford already had his medical? Was reported by various outlets over a week ago that it was due earlier this week.

Looking like Ndiaye will be off to OM soon enough.

Sheff Utd really are up the creek. Losing their talisman and not a single signing so far.

Whereas we’ve lost Tella and Maatsen and the only player we’ve signed that want with us last season is our new 3rd choice goalkeeper.

They've said that lots of the stuff that they are doing is with a view to it being moved to their new stadium.

I’d imagine it’s still far easier and cheaper to build into the new stadium.

agreenwood

God forbid the Premier League & sports broadcasters could just have left Luton alone until they move to their new stadium.

Every single thing they are building now in the existing stadium will be bulldozed in the not too distant future.

Utterly pointless and unnecessarily disruptive.

Will Lancaster’s tweets seems to get taken as gospel on here. Who is he?

He likes to hedge his bets, that’s for sure. Wout focussed on playing at Burnley, but still might be sold. TBH back our “radar”. Basically, they might happen, they might not.

agreenwood

He’s on holiday, so probably nothing imminent..

agreenwood

Wonder how many folk expressing sympathy for Foster or Alli today are also giving Wout pelters and joking about Connor Roberts kicking the crap out of him?

We are not in desperate need of a LB as long as Charlie Taylor is in the house. A proven PL defensive LB.

As ever the vehemence of opinions on here masks the fact that several of the opposing views can be held at once. I think Muric was fantastic for us last season.

agreenwood

The penalty was a diabolical decision. Imagine if it’d have deprived them of the win.

agreenwood

He’s 1.92m according to Transfermarkt, which is about 6’3”.

Not that it matters, but he doesn’t look 6’6” so I’ll take Transfermarkt over Wiki.

agreenwood

Softest penalty ever

Can’t see the link to watch the game on UEFA TV?

I’m abroad so can’t watch on C4.
