Summer transfer madness thread

I hope he keeps Tshibola, think there's a good player in there.

I still want rid of him, doesn't matter how good he is, each time I see mention of his name I get bloody Bohemian Rhapsody in my head.

Now I have !!

Anybody paying above 5m will not have seen him play last season - potentially a good player in there but until he rediscovers the courage to put his body on line in tackles he is a totally liability as a defender

Amavi was a bottler before he got injured, case in point where he bottled it against the bitters at home which led to their goal

Sampdoria now being linked with Amavi. Get the auction going, but hurry up about it.

We paid 5 mil, but he's gonna leave the club for free, for free...

I agree and he reminds me a bit of Delph when he first came from Leeds.  Jedinak or Lyden (or a new signing) holding with two out of Lansbury, Hourihane, Bjarnason and Tshibola in front them looks fine on paper.  There is obviously some other issue with Tshibola though.

It's the fact that he's rubbish, mostly.  That midfield would see the team finishing midtable at best.  No pace, no creativity.

I'd rather give him more than a season to prove himself.

Have to disagree there Risso.  The brief glimpses of Tshibola we did see suggested to me that there is some quality there, but as I said earlier I'm guessing there must be some 'issues' off the field going on with him.

As for the rest, I probably that we would need to sign a centre forward who can hold the ball up to get the best out of them.  I don't think Lansbury and Bjarnason were anywhere near fully fit when we signed them and along with Hourihane, I don't think they were utilised properly.

Hourihane had provided the most assists in the league when we signed him. That was normally a big part of Lansbury's game at Forest and West Ham too.

Thor apart (he just looks bobbins) the players themselves are fine. It's the defensive straightjacket they were forced to operate under in the second half of the campaign.  Getting less from more, as we have specialised in for years now.

And there's the rub.

Again Thor has played barely any games so it's a bit early to judge.
