There's no way BFC are paying Walker 160k/week :shock: When Joe Hart came here wasn't he still under contract to City but not wanted by Pep? Apparently the clubs and Hart came up with some kind of 'arrangement', maybe the Walker deal is similar? :roll: Joe Hart still had a year left on his City con...

I hope Parker isn't thinking Cullen can be the main man in our midfield at this level. We've seen that he struggles at the higher level and doesn't have the physical attributes to compete. He's useful but we need a big upgrade in there. I doubt any of our current central midfielders have the physic...

Another very average signing - neither VK or SP thought him good enough There have no doubt been some successes, but way too many that just didn't look up to the required standard for last season, never mind this one. There's probably another 10 - 12 of the current squad who will likely not feature ...

I'm loving the optimism that a side that have been outside of the top flight of Spain twice in 26 years, and have absolutely no reason not to be thinking about breaking into the top half are going to be delighted and so grateful to a championship side if we can send them our 3rd or 4th choice right...

Just missed out on Andy Carroll
3 year deal at Dagenham and Redbridge
What are our recruitment team doing ??

At this moment in time
He is a better option than Ashley Barnes

We could do with moving a few players on!

Squad list now up to 42 even without JBL

But includes Houdini and Brownhill

Club will have to buy a double decker bus for away trips

If rumours are to be believed, we will be signing lindelof, Henderson, oxlade-chamberlain, sterling and Wilson.

We've resigned Barnes so these are not out of the running

It’s a shame Kalvin Phillips career has nosedived. He’d be perfect alongside Cullen.

Surprised Leeds haven't gone back for him - yet

It should only be done if our valuation is met, and within a timeframe also dictated by us. And, no matter who, or how many, they send shouldn’t alter this. Trafford only has two years left on his contract and, as time goes on after this window, his valuation will likely decrease Perhaps we have to...

From Keith Downie tweet Leeds United are close to agreeing a deal with Newcastle for Sean Longstaff. 💰 The newly-promoted club have made a £10m + £2m bid for the 27-year-old midfielder. ⚪️This deal – if & when accepted – would represent pure profit for #NUFC.

Ugochukwu available but for a permanent only.
Would be a beast alongside Cullen

Chelsea certainly have a number of young guys who are unlikely to feature this season
Ugochukwu, Lavia, Chukwuemeka, Amougou plus Dewsbury-Hall
And the same could be said of City

No idea why VK brought him in. It’s hard to get your head round the freedom VK was given in the transfer market and the amount of money he wasted. It’s a good job SP has got us back up because that squad size and wage bill could have been big trouble without promotion. Pace was starstruck with VK i...

He's younger than Barnes

And Ash is the Burnley Messiah according to many on here

Still listed as part of the squad ?

You reckon? I think this damages how much cash we can get for Trafford.

Chelsea keeper that started over 25 games for a top 4 side last year and full international keeper (25 years old) only going for 21m. Makes our 40m request totally unrealistic

He was on loan at Strasbourg all last season ?

Would be taking a look at Jack Harrison on a free transfer. Decent experience and only 28. Decent shout but another wide man - do we really need any more especially given our weaknesses at CM and Striker requiring more attention Would not be surprised if Leeds offer him a new deal and maybe Phillip...

Isn't Hannibal the Brownhill replacement, or even Flemming playing in a deeper role.

The answer is no to either of them

Which is why we need another CM and even then not quite like Brownhill

We need someone with pace, height and strength in this key position

For all you “he’s too old and shouldn’t have a place” people, have another read of this, and take it in. You can’t place a price on this type of influence. It’s REAL leadership, and it’s rare. We’ll need it next year. The issue is not that he is good for the dressing room - he clearly is a good inf...

jojomk1

I see your point but that means we probably need to sell at least 2 strikers this window (possibly even three). We only really have 3 central strikers in Foster, Barnes and Houtondji Therein lies our problem as all of them are a long way off good enough and I would include Flemming in that as well

jojomk1

So far we've signed a GK, LB and CB/RB Rumours about an italian winger, a Ukranian midfielder and midfielder from Watford. All looks good so far but surprised no links to a striker which is the one position we really need to improve. We've just signed a striker called Barnes You can't improve on that
