Summer 2022 Transfer Thread

[Beard82]

I was trying to explain to my wife the point of this forum, and why I waste so much time

She looked blank when I said that 90% of it is waiting for someone to make a small typo. so we can spend the next 3 hours making puns about it

As long as we don’t sign a neonderthal like Ben Mee

I do wonder if we should make a signing from India to open up that commercial market. The left back for the India national team is Jerry Lalrinzuala, and if anyone could help, Jerry can!

Maxence Lacrois from Wolfsburg rumours today.

Sounds like one of those made-up brands you get in TK Max. 'Carlo Carlucci' and so on.

Hard to top 'Ciro Cetterio' for that sort of thing.

Fascinating fact - they provided the team suits for the League Cup Final in 1994.....

And my graduation suit in the same year.

And my school blazer the same year.

I had a Gustavo Bartelt suit in the early 2000s

Percy reporting that plans were in place before the Konsa injury to bring in a central defender, and that  James Tarkowski (Burnley, out of contract in the summer) gas been discussed.

Think he will struggle badly, Michael Keane style, when he moves away from a team that sets up it's defensive line at the 18 yard box. Avoid.

I dunno, I'd have gone for 'snog'.

Saw a comment a few weeks ago from a Spanish football expert on Sky who said that "Suarez, cannot run more than 10 yards, although if you give him a chance in the penalty area to score he is still one of the best"

It will be interesting to see how he does for us next season, not sure either Watkins or Ings will be happy about not starting a game when Suarez is picked ahead of them.

Beeb gossip reporting Citeh in for Phillips now, so if so we can strike him off the list.

Jumping the gun a bit there Sid. He hasn't signed for anyone  yet.

Certainly, as everything that has ever been in the gossip column has always come to pass.

Just like Arsenal being after Buendia?

No.  Not with those ears.

Makes sense to look at the free transfer market. Tarkowski isn’t a bad player, Wet Spam seemed willing to spend a mint on him previously.  Didn’t Gerrard say something about looking at freebies in his press conference or generally?
