Summer transfer, gossip, speculation thread

Hope not. Hegazi is really poor in anything other than a team set up to defend - ala baggies in the playoffs.

I think I agree, he looks a solid defender but I've never had the impression he's capable of playing out from the back. A right footed version of Mings would be the best option but at the very least I want another defender who's comfortable in possession and has a bit of pace.

[aj2k77]

Apparently we're looking at Hegazi now as well....double whammy for them.

I'll save us the time, I've already looked at him, he's Blues. Move along.

Jay Rodriguez is a bellend. It's a no from me.

Cheating wanker.

Yes. A scrotum of the highest order. Going to Burnley, it looks like. See you soon you handballing bastard!

Also the outrageous penalty dive playing for Sarfamtun,

Oh thanks for reminding me about that🤦‍♂️

He won't get away with any of that nonsense with VAR watching on

you'd be wrong then

[Dazvillain]

Which probably means someone else is at an advanced stage I'd guess.

Etheridge

[rob_bridge]

To be fair Heghazi at 10m seems like peanuts when Austin is quoted at 8m.

Yeah Etheridge is probably on his way.

[AsTallAsLions]

Etheridge

Or Heaton?

[Ger Regan]

Etheridge and Heaton leave me very cold, I'm not really seeing the benefit of either over giving steer a go. Would personally prefer Butland, but in saying all that, there's enough credit in the bank to support whatever the club decide.

[Toronto Villa]

Right now outside of maybe BB I’m struggling to think of a player who regressed under Dean Smith and his staff. I’d trust them with whoever they buy to be honest.

[Rudy65]

Sky reporting we've ended our interest in Butland.

Good news in my view. I don’t particularly rate him

Give Kalinc a chance first

[mr underhill]

for me its the least important signing of this window - leave Steer and Kalinic here and send out Nyland on loan for the season with a recall option.

Had honestly forgotten all about him, whoops!   To be fair though I've not even seen him mentioned as an option from the bench in any of those squads for this season posts.
