BFC TRANSFER NEWS SUMMER/AUTUMN 2020 (MUST CONTAIN LINK)

[Quickenthetempo]

Wasn’t the reason Jeff didn’t sign because he was offered considerably less than what he was already on?

No, he was offered the same money at first and then an improved contract just before the 23rd June deadline.

[Hedontplayforyou]

Tottenham and Southampton have agreed deals for Hojbjerg and Walker-Peters.

This should rule Southampton out of any race which may be going on to sign Matty Cash

That won't affect us, we aren't after Cash unless it's the £ type.

[FeedTheArf]

The same journo who first linked us with Matty Cash is now saying we're after Deeney (kind of believable with the Dyche link, but would be a waste of money) and Gerard Deulofea.

Think he's just throwing names out there in the hope that one sticks. Would imagine Deulofea in particular is one of Watford's top earners so will end up at West Ham/Palace type club if he's going anywhere.

Always liked Deulofeu. Doubt there's anything in that one. Problem with him for all his bag of tricks, his final ball is wanting most of the time.
Still think Deeney could happen *shudder*.

He said Delefou would be a loan.

[Grumps]

He also said it would be a loan deal for deulofeu which makes it even less believable

[jrgbfc]

Hard to see how Delofeu would fit in under Dyche. I may be wrong but he's always come across as a bit of a fancy Dan who plays when he feels like it. The Deeney link is a bit more realistic unfortunately.

[Woodleyclaret]

I'd be delighted if we got Deulofeu and Deeney
Deeney is a winner who hates losing and a good leader
Deulofeu is a crowd pleaser who can beat a man and produces good assists

[Flying Without Ings]

Deeney would be our fifth best striker if he came.

He’s not a journalist. He’s another in a long line of people pretending to be something they aren’t on social media and somehow duping folk into believing him.

Correct

Correct

I’ve been monitoring his tweets for a week or so and I have checked on the accounts that he follows on twitter, mainly sporting accounts I.e. reporters from newspapers and such.

With the amount of times he tweets during the day I do wonder how he has time to wipe his own ass, bringing me to the assumption that he just takes info from other outlets and pedals it as his own, then when one eventually hits he then pins that tweet as some sort of medal....I may be totally wrong of course but that hasn’t happened since 2015.

Wipe his own ass

It was clearly BS. As someone else said, an “ex journalist” of 25 years without a single report online and a grand total of 600 followers. Probably a 14 year old bored in the holidays

[Newcastleclaret93]

Not a rumour from a paper but I have heard from three separate Newcastle fans today that Matty Longstaff is on his way to Burnley. Free agent that was on just under 1k a week.

don’t know if there’s any truth to this but I would be relatively happy. Cheap signing with potential.

[mdd2]

Leeds said to want him

A grand a week you say... that sounds like us!

Not according to Max Thompsons agent...

[Newcastleclaret93]

What’s the situation with Thompson’s agent?

[superdimitri]

What’s the situation with Thompson’s agent?

He spotted Mike Garlick on Brunshaw Road picking pennies off the pavement.

We’re more likely to be in for Knockaert (the poor mans Delofeu)

[MACCA]

What’s the situation with Thompson’s agent?

Said something along the lines of, the powers that be at Turf Moor ( Garlick ) have been playing hardball regards new contracts, and haggling over a few hundred pounds when it comes to Max Thompsons new contract...

Regarding this earlier post. If any of you would like proof that he is in fact , talking nonsense then I will provide a “link” or a “source” to the gentleman in question and state the details of it on here and we will observe what he regurgitates on Twitter......this is indeed after I have already tested the water .

[BOYSIE31]

Deulofea would be an incredible signing - but type of player Dyche would not go for unfortunately.

Deeney a big no thanks but would not rule him out as good mates with Dyche - shudder

[Cheshireclaret]

Regarding Deulofeu, most of my wife’s cousins are Everton fans and some are season ticket holders - and they’ve always said he has one good game in 4. So as someone said above, a player who’s great when he can be bothered and sometimes grabs headlines - but more usually doesn’t put a shift in and goes missing.

No thanks. Next.

Would be astonishing for the Geordies to let him go.
Would be a fantastic signing for us, very good footballer, with energy and goals

You can't post that without a link.

[lucs86]

Yeah Longstaff would be a cracking signing if possible.
Deulofeu doesn't seem to fit the Dyche profile but is a big talent, if Dyche thinks it works then it'd be very exciting.
Deeney's past his best but he can play and Dyche is really keen on him. If we bring him in on a shortish deal to keep Dyche happy and he comes off the bench with Barnes to wind up defenders I'd happily watch it!

Rather watch football than winding players up

[boyyanno]

I'm struggling to see why anyone would be against signing Deulofeu. He's obviously inconsistent but in terms of ability is far better than anyone else we currently have. Players capable of being match winners at PL level are very few and far between.

Steve Bruce reckons they made him an "unbelievably good offer" so I wouldn't expect him to be that cheap and with him only being 20 surely they'd be due a reasonable amount of compensation.

He's made just 6 premier league appearances in his career unlike his brother Sean who's had 32 starts for Newcastle in the last two seasons.

Not against signing him. His end product is a bit hit and miss. Clearly talented and would give us attacking options. At the right price and wage. He'd be worth a punt. They'd be looking to at least recoup what they paid, which was reported around £12 million. If not make a profit on him.

If he won us 1 in every 4 games he would make a far bigger contribution than any other player we have.

[NewClaret]

It wouldn't shock me at all if Hendrick re-signed with Burnley. He's a handy player to have around.

He’s been “offered” to Villa now

https://tbrfootball.com/aston-villa-fan ... -hendrick/

[JimmyRobbo]

Well, for what it's worth, I'd be very happy with Longstaff and Deaney. Delofeu does not excite me but, from the bench, he's different and valuable.

Obviously, ignoring spelling their names correctly.

[NewClaret]

If he won us 1 in every 4 games he would make a far bigger contribution than any other player we have.

Would still hugely favour Buendia, who creates more consistently and also puts a shift in. He’s a big talent though and looked their biggest threat at the Turf.

[TVC15]

If he won us 1 in every 4 games he would make a far bigger contribution than any other player we have.

How do you work that one out ?

In Pope, Tarks and Wood we have individual players who have won us far more games than he has for Watford last season. Jay Rod probably won more games for us than he did...especially since Watford won a lot less games than us and he was injured so much.

And I would not be in a least bit surprised that he is on double the money of any of our team.

[Newcastleclaret93]

Brannagan has just signed a new contract. Looks like another false transfer rumour.

[Hedontplayforyou]

For those of you on Twitter - RUMOUR coming up that we plan to replace Gibson with Ben Davies of Preston. But we will hold out for around £12m for Gibson .
Added that Gibson’s preference is to stay at Boro - this should confirm the account is genuinely nonsense.
( Andy Ridgwell)

15:03 Twitter he has posted almost identical.

CASE CLOSED

[Quickenthetempo]

Nixon has got a story about us in the paper tomorrow.

Oooohhh the suspense is killing.

[PremierLeagueClass]

Any Nixon story about us is never good news.

Probably about a bid we've put in that's too low.

[NewClaret]

Says there’s a story about Boro too, so presumably Gibson to Boro.

[jojomk1]

Warnock was saying last week that he thought there would be more player exchanges in the current financial climate
Would Fry be considered as part of such a deal

[Duffer_]

If you could have the pick of the Boro squad, who would you want? Surely not Dael Fry.

[Claret Toni]

Just reflecting on the Pope to Chelsea rumour.

Chelsea linked with Declan Rice but looking to raise £65M in player sales top finance it.

Given that they've clearly lost faith with Kepa, does this mean they have the goalkeeper (Pope) fee set aside and a sale has been agreed. I can't believe their need to signa goalkeeper is just rumour. In their position I really would go for Jan Oblek.

Think both stories are from the Star, which says all you need to know. My reading of it:

Chelsea want poor little Burnley’s Pope - Chelsea will buy him for £50m pocket change. Chelsea want a West Ham player - add £15m to the price and say they need to sell players first.

I’d be surprised if they are seriously interested in either.

AM have said Oblak won’t be sold. They’ll be expecting a fee for Kepa to fund the new keeper. Noticed SheffU mentioned for another keeper so possible Henderson to Chelsea.
