Summer Transfer Thread and Gustavo Cisneros Type Rumours.

[manic-road]

Does look like the Kane to Man City has legs.  Telegraph reporting it now and predictably the stumbling block is Levy and money.  Hopefully the media will jump all over this now and leave us alone

Just shows Pep's genius as I think he and his scouting team may have uncovered a gem there.

I'm always amazed at the plaudits he gets considering the clubs he goes to, winning the Bundesliga with Bayern Munchen should be a given as they are by far the wealthiest German club then goes to mega rich City who can buy bench warmers for £60m and low and behold labelled a genius for winning trophies.

If we are so rich then we should follow the City example and buy £60 million bench warmers and we would win the league - so simple to do, I am surprised that all clubs don’t do it!!

Pep is a brilliant manager

Douglas Luiz

“He can be sold for €70-80m in a few years” – Club urged to sign Aston Villa star this summer
By Lucas Sposito - 23rd July 2021

“Would Douglas Luiz be a good buy? Perfect, I’d take it right away! He’s very strong: he defends well, he has imagination, he’s bad. He can do everything”, Gianni Di Marzio told Radio Marte (via Area Napoli).

“If you take such a footballer, he can be sold for €70-80m in a few years. Now, however, he would cost you a maximum of twenty million.”

£20m for Douglas Luiz is a joke but would you let him go for £40m?
For me, he is best as a box to box and we play him in a double pivot so we have not seen him at his best.
So I would put him on a new contact and keep him.

I don’t think you could get him for £20m chap.

Not for £20m, not for £40m, not for £60m.  We aren't going to get in the Champions League by selling our best players.

[pauliewalnuts]

It's also fanciful to imagine we'll be pushed into selling players to Napoli

[LukeJames]

If Napoli throw in Onomah aswell then maybe.

Maybe they'd make us an offer we couldn't refuse.

[Martin Carruthers]

Italian clubs should always be the best, it's the correct order of things.

Apart from the Villa, obviously.

[OCD]

It's worse, he's talking about 20m Euro's.

throw in Onomah Lol

At this point, I'm hoping for Bailey, JWP and Alverez, in that order.  We would have Ollie up top with Alverez as backup. Bailey, Jack and Emi across the middle top, where Emi can shift over to Jacks spot as needed and the wings can be replaced by any of: El Ghazi, Trao, and Trez. SJM, JWP and Luiz can rotate around our 2 DM spots, and our defense pretty much stays the same as last year.  That's a pretty dang potent offense, with JWP probably banging in 20 goals just on free kicks won from that front line.

Is that refuse or refuse?

Nah I like Napoli and all but if that guy thinks he costs £20m maximum now then he's embarrassingly out of his depth.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

If we're going to get carried away, looking at the service Ollie should be getting this season, I'll be disappointed if he's not hitting close to 30 goals. I'd say more if he sometimes didn't need that extra touch, his only fault in my eyes.

Just watched  the latest Holy Trinity on YouTube. Its a Canadian guy from Toronto  who I have posted about before. His latest one is about our recruitment policy and it makes so much sense. He explains why we are not going to buy Tammy or Ings and why we have an interest in McNeil from Burnley. Very well researched, but thats what we expect from people in Toronto, isnt that right TV? Only 20 mins long, highly recommended.

Your right it was very good.....
