Taken 30th July.

[123EasyasBFC]

I make it 23 but you may be right-currently 25 if the two signings mentioned have signed and neither under 21 on 1/1/24

It’s any player born after 1st Jan 2023 so Hannibal would count

[PremierLeagueClass]

An apology to who?

It's still been an absolute mess of a window, regardless of what happens in the next 12 hours or so.

Quite the opposite.

[JR1882]

Worth a mention that Brazilian window closes on Monday so Vitinho doesn’t need to go through today.

[Cap]

Do we know if Plymouth have signed any additional strikers?
If they have, that might mean the Whittaker deal is still a goer. If not, they're not going to be able to get someone in to replace him, unless theyve someone lined up, so it's probably dead in the water.

To get him and make it happen, we're going to have to pay what Plymouth want.

Nixon suggested yesterday that they may have found their 'number 10'.

[CoolClaret]

IF (and it’s a big IF) these deals happen. Some posters will be owing a big apology after the last few weeks

... and what if we lose out narrowly to a promotion place because we fielded a sub-par squad and dropped points against Sunderland?

I'm sure Plymouth fans would be delighted with that swap

I’m sure, when the circumstances become clear, that there will be a reasonable explanation for this. If we did lose out we won’t by 1 result

Yes I know and as posted on this Board I still make squad list of 23 the lad from Chelsea although under 21 is a loan and has to be in the 25

Let's hope that goes through then.
Would dearly love Whittaker here.

[toml12]

He really is one for the future then

[123EasyasBFC]

Forgive me you are right I have missed Sarmiento out, so it is 23

They are saved. They signed Obafemi on loan remember.

[criminalclaret]

Are there many players less than 20 month old in the league at present?

[jedi_master]

Is there anything remotely tangible around Whittaker? Appears to me it’s unsourced wishes and conjecture. Nixon pouring cold water on it is not a good sign - his desire to not be proven wrong is almost as strong as some of the children on here.

[mdd2]

No problems Easy. Nice for me to get something right for once.

[Steddyman]

They have also just signed an attacking midfielder from Odense: https://x.com/sportspeteo/status/182947 ... 6QKwfgixkA

[CoolClaret]

Then the extra time taken to properly gel a brand new team from the end of August rather than mid July?

[beddie]

Have we still got Vitiniho?

[ElectroClaret]

Todd Cantwell to Deadwood seems done.
Ivan Toney off to Saudi. 40 million.

[Steddyman]

Have we still got Vitiniho?

Not for long. Parker said yesterday he expected him to go.

[bumba]

If we come out of this window with a team that's being mentioned we will be a force again.

Hladky/ Trafford

Roberts Worrall Esteve Pires

Brownhill Cullen

Whittaker Hannibal Koleosho

Orban/Foster

[Steddyman]

Charlie Casper gone out on loan to FC United. So I assume if Traff goes we will sign another keeper.

Sarmiento, Jaidon Anthony?

Not sure how that will help Toney’s England career. Seems like a waste.

We'd be back to looking at a possible top two finish. It's a very strong first eleven.

[ElectroClaret]

Rovers sign a keeper, didn't catch who he is.

[Conroy92]

Anyone heard the rumour about Tella being unhappy in Germany? Could he be a loan option?

[BFC_Michael]

Anyone heard the rumour about Tella being unhappy in Germany? Could he be a loan option?

Please don't get my hopes up... not again...

[midlands claret]

dont forget benson he has not gone yet

[ElectroClaret]

If it's true and you've heard it, then it's a fair bet someone at the club has.

With Sarmiento, Anthony, Ekdal, Beyer, Massengo, the lanky striker I can’t spell, Delacroix, Humphrey’s and eventually Redmond, Ramsay and potentially Tresor adding depth it looks like a strong squad.

[adropofclaret]

I'm just trying to catch up with who we now have actually signed, can someone in the know drop a list please?

[gandhisflipflop]

We have a 2 week break after tomorrow. I’m not sure what your point is. Pace could not have foreseen VK going, and the mess that it left us in. At least he is evidently making the tough decisions.

Check the list at the top of the forum :

Why would Tella come to Burnley?

[Rileybobs]

Pace could not have foreseen VK going, and the mess that it left us in.

Yes he could. That’s his job.

[jedi_master]

The boat has sadly sailed with Tella for now but if there is any chance of getting him in the future (I.e, following a promotion) I’d be absolutely all over it.

[Foshiznik]

As of 12:23pm on 30th August 2024…

Hladky
Green

Pires
Worrall
Humphreys
Hannibal
Anthony
Hountondji

Surely there was a mess whether VK stayed or went. And there would have been sales, like Odobert and O'Shea regardless.

[gandhisflipflop]

Yes he could. That’s his job.

So his job is a fortune teller? Ok.

[louieollie]

Brilliant ............I love exclusive Nixon's scoops

[Foshiznik]

Starting to wonder if selling players like Bastien and Twine might have been lacking oversight.

[gandhisflipflop]

Surely there was a mess whether VK stayed or went. And there would have been sales, like Odobert and O'Shea regardless.

Maybe so, but it may not have been on the scale as we are seeing.

Players leave relegated teams shocker. The scale of it had me a bit worried but the last few days I’m confident that we will be ok.

Decent list that..... hopefully we got a couple more done last night and this morning. Thinking (Hoping) Sarmiento and Kebbal.

[Holtyclaret]

Charlie Casper gone out on loan to FC United. So I assume if Traff goes we will sign another keeper.

We’ve generally only had two keepers in champ and 3 in prem. maybe a youngster to develop?

[daveisaclaret]

If it's true and you've heard it, then it's a fair bet someone at the club has.

Fingers crossed the person at the club who's heard it isn't the chairman's daughter

[Rileybobs]

So his job is a fortune teller? Ok.

Part of his job is to have a contingency plan. Did you think that Kompany would always be the manager of Burnley?
