Summer 2021 Transfer Window Rumours - Links - Discussion

[Iloveyoubrady]

Regarding Cornet, I know it’s only “highlights” I’ve seen on YouTube but he looks very average to me. Can’t believe we’re breaking our transfer record for him tbh- very UnDyche like but part of me glad we’re actually taking a risk for once.

Looks good to me here on a youtube highlights reel

[ClaretTony]

Wonder why the French press are reporting he's having a medical today?

You would have to ask them but I know there has been no medical today although I suspect there will be one soon.

Have to laugh at fans saying they're not sure he’s good enough…

In fairness, it is difficult to judge how good a player is - especially from abroad.

I’m fairly confident we’ll like cornet though - I’ve seen him a few times in the champions league. Let’s say I never believed he’d be a Burnley target...

[JohnMac]

I hope they don't have to phone up and try and get hold of a GP to conduct the medical. Might not be an Appointment available until January!

Dyche is going to start calling from 8am tomorrow morning…

I’m not sure mate, he’s a full international, champions league footballer that scores lots of goals at the highest level, even the most cynical must struggle

[Gordaleman]

Can't believe how many people on here think he's just a LB. He's played LB, LW, RW and striker in his relatively short career. I'm sure he will be used on the RW by Burnley but Sean will love his versatility and his pace.

Talking of 'Pace', the critics of Alan, may have to eat their words if this, and other signings come off. It seems he was determined to get his man and did so. For the doubters, it's to get behind the new board.

[elwaclaret]

I am 90% certain your a Bast'rd fan

I bloody hope so. It would be worth losing out on our prime target for a cheap snigger at Burnley fans…

a nobend if he isn’t a horse botherer

True that. His goal scoring record is impressive - especially after a season and a half at lwb. 1 in 5/6 in ligue 1 and the champions league can’t be denied.

[Gordaleman]

Tony, why have you removed the 'Edit' facility. My last post is missing the word 'time' in the last sentence, so what's wrong with being able to correct it?

[GodIsADeeJay81]

Man City winger Patrick Roberts has been told he can leave on a free.

Feels like he's been around forever but still only 24

[ClaretMov]

I remember watching this game, I can't believe we are going to sign this lad https://youtu.be/QeUmyMaCR60

[Pearcey]

I’d hazard a guess that it wasn’t Tony that removed it.

You ran out of time mate

[tiger76]

Man City winger Patrick Roberts has been told he can leave on a free.

I'm sure we were heavily linked with him a couple of years ago, he is a RW, but can also play on the left, or even in an attacking midfield role.

He seems to be one of those guys who's had a lot of loan moves, and if the Cornet deal was to fall through he wouldn't be a bad cheap option late in the window.

But if we land our main target I can't see why we'd need Roberts, although given his age, and the fact JBG is out of contract next year I think, then if we wanted to get a younger option in the building he's not a bad shout at all especially on a free.

He looks a very composed, quick, skillful player, with a bit of cheekiness, perhaps cockiness to him. Something we've been missing.

[tiger76]

Yes now he'll know how Joe Root feels.

[Steve-Harpers-perm]

After months of being told repeatedly ‘we have no money’, ‘Collins is our last bit of business’, ‘Hennessey is our last bit of business’ then a few posters will be holding their hands up after this signing.

[Gordaleman]

You ran out of time mate

I tried to correct as soon as I posted it? How much time are you allowed, and why is there a limit anyway?

A lot of fans should feel rightly embarrassed

[claretburns]

EVERTON WANT MAITLAND-NILES ON LOAN

Everton want to sign Ainsley Maitland-Niles on loan from Arsenal.

The Toffees need a right-back and the Gunners are open to letting Maitland-Niles leave in this window.

Relations are good between the clubs following a number of deals between them in recent years, including Alex Iwobi and Theo Walcott.

[Burnley1989]

10 seconds I think, rumours are it’s being reduced to 6 next season

Why should anyone be embarrassed? Aren’t people allowed opinions that differ from your own?

Hmm probably us out of the picture if Everton are involved. Having said that, he did state he wants to play in midfield and not full back.

That was my thinking and if it doesn't work out, sell him on

[Blyclaret]

Anyone have any idea who the second player we are heavily linked with is

[Vegas Claret]

well said

[TheFamilyCat]

George Boyd.

[gandhisflipflop]

Why should anyone be embarrassed? Aren’t people allowed opinions that differ from your own?

Absolutely they are allowed a differing opinion. I haven’t suggested otherwise. To start whinging after the board have had less than 7 months here though wasn’t even giving them a chance and unfair.

[Vegas Claret]

an opinion is based on information, all this "we aren't signing anyone" was based on made up imaginary nonsense - they are worlds apart

Seems unlikely.

[Newcastleclaret93]

Perhaps this is the other player?

[Pearcey]

Have we had any solid links about AMN? Lots of posters seem convinced we’re in for him.

[JarrowClaret]

CT mentioned this a while ago a poster was taking advantage of the edit facility to give out abuse (something like that anyway) so it has been removed for all users.

[Vegas Claret]

when you look at some of the positions he takes up in that video and some of his passing then Vydra simply has to play, Cornet clearly thrives when players around him have sharp movement. I'm genuinely excited about that prospect

[Newcastleclaret93]

Perhaps this is the other player?

https://www.footmercato.net/amp65392852 ... ssion=true

The obligatory YouTube video.

[kentonclaret]

There having been no movement in the betting market for several days on AMN in the last few hours his price has shortened up dramatically to 3/2 to join Everton. (Sky Bet)

I guess they need to replace GS

[Nonayforever]

Sorry mate, unless you give us a clue that could be any tune in the world

Baby shark !

It's cr#p but catchy.

[Murger]

If Everton are in for AMN, then we've no chance.

Probably due to Sky reporting this:

Looking for a RB, which is not his favourite position. Everton fans unimpressed, which just goes to show the difference in how fans look at transfers.

[CrosspoolClarets]

Everton want him on the bench and as RB cover.

If we are in with a loan and a buy clause in 6-12 mths, and if he is to play CM, I can’t see him choosing Everton unless the wages were hugely different.

Of course, we may not be in for him at all, could be all tittle tattle.

[Local cricketer]

The same Maitland Niles that did nothing at West Brom last year? I’d rather we went for the Turkish lad they had

[Wile E Coyote]

lets hope we sign cornet and he is everything we hoped for.

more importantly, A man who trained his dog to play the trumpet on the London underground said he went from Barking to Tooting in just over an hour.

[Paul Waine]

Is he the guy who lives in Battersea at the dog's home?

No tears here, sad act

[Vegas Claret]

given the fact someone has broken our scouting system and allowed scouts to go further than Stoke I'm more than hopeful our options have dramatically improved, you could pluck any midfielder from any La Liga starting eleven and it would give us more ability on the ball than we currently have
