Summer 2024 Transfer Window Discussion - Rumours and Links welcome

Maybe it’s one we revisit in January if they’re looking somewhat doomed and we’re looking good for promotion.

Some of Plymouth's fans think he is sulking now. Don't think he played well yesterday.

I heard they accepted an offer from us, conditional on securing a replacement which they couldn’t sort on time.

The thought of him & Antony on either wing and Flemming/Sarmiento in the 10 is quite scary.

Interesting article in the athletic about the transfer window suggested that the Foster to Ipswich was set up by an intermediary. Sounds more like an agent saw an opportunity to make a deal and it didn’t come from the club, or Foster.

Or I’m incredibly naive and the club used an intermediary so they could deny it to Foster/fans if it didn’t work out!

I saw an interview with Gary Rowett on Twitter the other day. He was talking about when we tried to get Flemming last time. I think he believes they should have let him go as it isn't fair to hold players back if they have the chance of Premier football. It was the owners that stopped it. I bet Whittaker is thinking about how much more he could be on and the better players he could be with to improve him.

We went for flemming early in the window last summer, had we of signed flemming last summer I don’t think we would of signed Amdouni

I thought the exact same regarding going in for Whittaker in January, I can see it if we are in the top 6. Tresor and benson make way for Whittaker to come

90 points should make the top 2, going off the table below and I see it as a very even division with lots of draws. We will take some bedding in up front but our defence will always keep us in games, as they did at Sunderland.

I think other than Sheff United no one else gets near that top 2 with us & Leeds. I think 85 will be enough for second.

If Sunderland are still doing well in Jan then I imagine theyl spend most of that Clarke money. They've got a good young side

Sunderland will struggle due to their lack of experience.

Sheff Utd look the main threat, with Leeds. Amazed they have both O Hare and Hamer, thought the latter would go.

As for Whittaker football is like a food chain, some of our players thought they could do better and have engineered moves, but the same works lower down. It means we get hungry players rather than grumpy ones. Every chance we get him in January because they could have a grumpy one like if we had kept, for example, Amdouni. I don’t think that is how to get players to perform.

Quicknick · Post by **Quicknick** » Mon Sep 02, 2024 3:47 am

I think Sunlan will fail to last the pace, too. I bet they're all getting excited up there, though.

Guller Bull · Post by **Guller Bull** » Mon Sep 02, 2024 3:21 pm

Did JBL move anywhere in the window?

I know there were a few clubs looking at him. Really was hoping we might have made a final push for him but it wasn’t to be.

Just looked and no he didn't. Came on as a sub for Hoffenheim this weekend. Very surprised he didn't get a move anywhere.

Nixon just posted on TiXXer "Roma in for Burnley backroom boy." Original story was Aug. 22, now "official." No idea what that's about and I'm not paying for his Patreon to find out - any ideas?

Heard a rumour we’ve signed a German player called Marlon Ritter . Midfielder. Maybe on a free or in January ??

burnley007 · Post by **burnley007** » Fri Sep 06, 2024 12:55 pm

I wouldn't mind Connelly coming in, always thought he looked decent at Hull.

We really lack any cover up front.

https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/aaron ... g-to-sign/

No idea about Praet though.

burnley007 · Post by **burnley007** » Fri Sep 06, 2024 12:57 pm

Apparently we spoke to Praet

You’d imagine it’d have been picked up somewhere by now if we had.

I would suggest that we will go back for Whittaker in January like we did for Flemming. He will have 6 months to sulk.

123EasyasBFC · Post by **123EasyasBFC** » Fri Sep 06, 2024 3:14 pm

Sambo not named in 25 man squad, does that mean he’s got a loan moved lined up somewhere, seems strange to only have roberts as the proper right back in the squad

Reported that he was expected to go out on loan, when we named the squad, surely when you have 2 spots you register him anyway instead the loan move doesn’t happen, which it obviously hasn’t happened

If no loan happens, he just gets added to the squad, no drama

I’d take Connolly in the squad

Blyclaret · Post by **Blyclaret** » Fri Sep 06, 2024 7:02 pm

Id take Connolly and get rid of Tresor any day

Hedontplayforyou · Post by **Hedontplayforyou** » Fri Sep 06, 2024 8:11 pm

Brandon Williams is still available can operate at right back, has been prominently a left back thus far in his career but at Ipswich he was mainly right sided . Still available on a free .

Looking forward to watching Flemming I have to admit . Give us a lot of options to change the midfield too. Something that we haven’t had in the centre of the park over the years

I’d guess Cork over Egan.

Hedontplayforyou · Post by **Hedontplayforyou** » Tue Sep 10, 2024 5:11 pm

There was a trialist in the u21s game today at centre back.

Why would we sign cork now that we have :

Cullen
Brownhill
Hannibal
Massengo
Laurent

With Flemming a 10, and Tresor if he turns up, with Ramsey to come.
