Digne said something like we're making big moves again this summer.

It's going to be an exciting one isn't it. I can't wait.

I don't think there's a great deal wrong really but he'll want his own players so it's going to be very intriguing.

Supposed to be close to agreeing to sign Rory Wilson from "Rangers" for £300k:

16 year old striker, meant to have been quite prolific at U17 level.

Sounds promising to be beating competition off like that and seeing how many goals he's scored at youth level.

The new Andy Gray? Great that we are still building for the future too but hoping for at least three quality players in this summer, four if I can be a bit greedy!

You don't get too many "Rangers" players called Rory!

More than have played for Celtic though.

I like the noise about Phillips but will only accept him if he gets rid of that ridiculous hairstyle

It sounds like it's not going to be Phillips now.  Widely being reported this morning that he wants to sign a new contract at Dirty leeds.

Until his agent asks for a wage the club can't possibly afford and who have already openly said they need to generate cash to move forward.

I mean, if he signs a new five-year deal with his boyhood club that happens to include a release clause that could be met by a rich and ambitious club, then he'll definitely be at Leeds forever, right? I have never seen anything that might make another outcome seem possible.

Don’t know much about this chap.
In fairness I guess he’d be looking at Champions League teams

just listened to a Villa podcast where the journalist? claims that one of the main priorities that Gerrard has identified this summer is signing a centre half

They also reckoned quite a few of the current squad will be on their way out of our club this summer.

There have been a few comments about a centre back so I think there's a fair chance of that happening. A DM of some sort is also far too heavily linked for it not to happen (finally). I also think we'll see a striker come in.

Outwards I think a lot of them are pretty obvious, with all the older loanees unlikely to come back, Davis is right on the fence for me. On top of that I think 1 of Sanson, Luiz or Nakamba will go, 1 or Watkins or Ings will go and 1 of Mings or Konsa will go. I also wouldn't be surprised if 1-2 of Bailey, Traore and Buendia go.

I suspect we'll be trying to make a fair amonut of income from that lot in the £120-150m region and then we'll throw £200m+ on replacing them. I might be wrong but, for me, this summer feels like it's going to be the one where the owners really flex their muscles and go big. I can see Coutinho staying but only being our 2nd or 3rd biggest fee, if you look at who is being linked there's a lot of £50-60m names being mentioned rather than the £20-30m range we had this time last year.
