Summer transfer window

[Woodleyclaret]

Tom Heaton was relegated with Bristol City and saved a penalty from Grezza at the Turf in one of his last games for them before signing for Burnley

[creepingdeath]

Nixon on twitter says we are signing a keeper???

[ervi34]

Nixon: Burnley are close to signing Goalkeeper Max Weiss for a fee of £4 million.

The Under 20’s Germany international will provide competition to current Goalkeeper James Trafford

[giveusaB]

Tom Heaton has agreed a new one-year contract with Manchester United.

[jedi_master]

I wonder if Hladky is being let go then? We already have Etienne Green as third choice.

[Jakubs Tash]

No, he didn’t. David James was in goal for the Grezza pen miss.

Heaton played at the Turf in the 3-1 defeat of Bristol City just before he signed.

[Burnley1989]

No, he didn’t. David James was in goal for the Grezza pen miss.

Heaton played at the Turf in the 3-1 defeat of Bristol City just before he signed.

And Im sure he put it wide?

Dodgson being linked with loan move to Luton and Stockport but also mentions Championship interest.

Last season Keane's aerial duel success rate was 57%.

Harwood-Bellis' was 56%.

you found the younger version !

[IanMcL]

Ekdal's aerial duel success rate in the Premier League was 31%

Harwood-Bellis' last season was 56%

Edale was in the shakiest/non existent, defence, ever seen! A Parker defence is organised and deemed important.

Was he? I don't recall him playing much.

Are you saying it wasn't the shakiest/ non-existent defence?

[bodge]

Matt Williams was interviewed on SSN this afternoon and said that we are very close to signing a couple of players fwiw.

Also mentioned that we are interested in a few players that haven't been made public.

[clarets1978]

I believe Matt Williams was at the fixture launch this morning. Was anybody there and what did he have to say? He normally has a few bits of transfer info.

He said that we had made Brownhill 2 further offers and was waiting for him now
We had signed a player in the first window but thats come to a halt because of a former agent demanding a 5% cut
A player who has been out on loan the last 2 seasons was almost sold but that fell through because it was an Israeli club (im guessing Churlinov?)
Scott Parker wants to get a look at Ekdal preseason

The compare did make a joke about a player threatening Matt Williams with physical voilence as well which was brushed over quickly

[Goliath]

Are you saying it wasn't the shakiest/ non-existent defence?

No. Did you even read what I said?

[IanMcL]

Yes.

Did he play?

But we keep getting told the alleged squaring up was a rumour and definitely didn't happen

[clarets1978]

Ive no idea, just commenting on what was said this morning.

[jedi_master]

If we're still waiting on Brownhill, as per Williams, then it doesn't sound particularly positive as to his desire to stay. He is of course quite within his rights to keep shopping around for a better offer, but this is our captain and in a crucial area of the pitch. I hope our desire to keep him has an expiry date because if he isn't staying you'd think his replacement is priority number one.

[Jakubs Tash]

And Im sure he put it wide?

High and wide! Certainly missed the target.

You’d imagine the keeper and Lazio winger should be the few close to signing. Although a report out of Italy suggested it might not be as advanced as initially thought.

[blatherwickstattoos]

No, he didn’t. David James was in goal for the Grezza pen miss.

Heaton played at the Turf in the 3-1 defeat of Bristol City just before he signed.

Would have been 7-1 if not for Heaton that game.

Has Williams associate / family member on X tweeted anything?

Weird comment

[NL Claret]

Weird comment

Not as weird as your comments last week trying to prove a rumour. I can understand why you have gone quiet on that front though.

I hope due diligence isn’t included in your job description.

You mean this rumour that the above poster, who happened to be at a talk with Williams today (yes it does exist, wow!!), has alluded to:

Think you should have done some due diligence on this thread.

No, your are (conveniently) barking up the wrong tree. Let’s leave it there.

[Longsider]

Nixon: Burnley are close to signing Goalkeeper Max Weiss for a fee of £4 million.

The Under 20’s Germany international will provide competition to current Goalkeeper James Trafford

Would he go straight into the first team if/when Trafford departs? Any info on what he is like ?

We already have a link with Karlsruher SC through our former striker Rouwen Hennings, I can't believe that was ten years ago.

[Mattster]

Whereas that Southampton defence was really well protected by their manager...

The comment did feel a bit tongue in cheek, but I havent kept up with what people have been saying on here about that so dont know how relevant that is or was

[burnley007]

2 people taking up space, again.

So arrogant. Why do you think we all want to read your pointless argument?

Get a room ffs.

[IanMcL]

Chatter about Nick 'In the middle of our goal' Pope being a swap plus cash for Trafford, whilst at the same time, us offering for a young keeper from Germany.

[Woodleyclaret]

Pure speculation roll on 1st September

On the Newsnow stuff. Hence, 'chatter'.

We do have a full time German football consultant now so expect more German business.

Thanks for that. Good update.

It also suggests he hasn't got an appealing offer from elsewhere.

[Longsider]

Manor Solomon anyone? Just seen something about him being someone we are interested in. Would have thought Dirty Leeds might be after him ahead of us , following his loan spell and title winning goal at Plymouth.

[Quicknick]

It also suggests he hasn't got an appealing offer from elsewhere.

If we really have offered him the money that's been suggested, I'm not surprised he can't better it.

[Vegas Claret]

Leeds being linked in Italy with a 30 million bid for Douglas Luiz of Juventus.

And so their buy survival like Forest did begins.

If I were Leeds (and Newcastle) I'd just spend loads and take the 8 point reduction when it's irrelevant - they have the money to do it

[Vegas Claret]

you would think better teams than Leeds would be in for him.

[Robbie_painter]

I know a lot on here won’t like hearing it but Leeds have the potential to be a top half club in a couple of seasons,bit like Villa and Forest.

[Woodleyclaret]

Let's hope not.

[exilecanada]

If we really have offered him the money that's been suggested, I'm not surprised he can't better it.

What kind of money has been suggested?
