2023 Summer transfer window - hopes, needs, expectations and rumours.

[Gareth]

I don't really understand the need for Monchi to be in the US with the squad. I'm sure he'd be better served being in the UK, hanging up on Daniel Levy.

Yeah, I wondered similar.

Although we finished signing Diaby whilst they were in the US. I think.

I’d presume he has a phone & if anything got close he’d be back in a few hours

I bet he's got more phones than a Chinese click factory.

Lol

I reckon any negotiations can be done exactly the same wherever he is. Let's say we're in for a player from Germany, it makes no difference if Monchi is in B6 or the USA.

[Sexual Ealing]

Yes, it's far from impossible, but it helps to be in similar timezones in my experience of conducting multimillion-pound transfers.

[OCD]

My gut feeling is that we want to shift a few first. Probably the same for a few other clubs too. Although it made me laugh when I read Arteta saying that their squad's too big now...well, you've just bought a load of players. It's always been easier to buy players than it is to sell them.

I had high hopes for him the first time around; his level is the championship at best.

Could Unai Emery work a miracle and transform him into a world-class player? .....No

Two words to tell you that the story is fabricated nonsense...

Football. Insider.

Traore is the next Paul McStay. He'll be a promising youngster until he retires.

Yep, true.

I hope there’s no mobile phone coverage in Washington. Or internet. Or faxes.

And a world shortage of duck/goose fat.

[KevinGage]

Mebbe Sportsmole are getting their Traores mixed up.

The one who used to play for us is rubbish.

[Toronto Villa]

Surely wherever Monchi is the deal gets done when he tells the person on the other end “Hola peasant, this is Monchi”
