Summer Transfer Window 2018

[9 to 5]

"Bloody ref screwing over our transfer deal. :/"

[stokeriño]

Just so long as Jorginho works out better for us than Robinho did for them.

[Szumi]

I imagine he'll be lined up alongside Kante, so he's bound to look fantastic. Anyone can look great next to him, even Ross Barkl... Oh, wait. 😑

[FLiam]

I have literally no idea who this Matteo Guendouzi is, but he seems to be fairly well thought of in France. 

Football Manager tells me that he might be a similar sort of player to Mohamed Elneny, which isn't a bad thing. 

[stokeriño]

Man City believe that the Jorginho-to-Chelsea story is 'a ruse'.

Fuck off and let my transfer stories be simple for once.

[FLiam]

West Ham have signed Andriy Yarmolenko from Dortmund. 

He didn't particularly stand out at Dortmund, so will be interesting to see how he gets on in the Premier League. 

[Adam]

@Matt do you know anything about young forward Mallik Wilks? We've just signed him on loan from your lot.

[Matt]

Was highly rated a couple of years ago but never seemed to progress. Maybe competitive football could bring his potential out. Definitely gonna be in the Mowatt/Lees class rather than the Delph/Cook/Byram class

@Liam

Seri to Fulham is a done deal. You've also signed Le Marchand from Nice as well.

[Lineker]

Liverpool have no plans to bid for Roma goalkeeper Alisson this summer, according to Sky sources.

Wolves are believed to be unconcerned after Sporting Lisbon demanded £48.5m for Portuguese keeper Rui Patricio and asked FIFA to ban the Premier League club from all transfer activity for two windows. Portuguese media have published a 63-page dossier sent to FIFA by Sporting, details their demands – which also include a request to ban Patricio from playing for six months. The international keeper joined Wolves on a four-year deal earlier this week on a free transfer, after he terminated his own contract with Sporting. William Carvalho, Gelson Martins and Bruno Fernandes have also cancelled their contracts at the troubled Portuguese club.

@Matt How is Sam Dalby doing? I know he hasn't played first team but is there any buzz about him at all?

[FLiam]

Seri is a huge coup for Fulham. 

I wonder how much Khan invests in the club in the next few years. He's one of the richest blokes about. 

Something slightly bizarre about Seri is that a year or so ago he was quoted as saying he could not see him playing football in a country like England as he has a big problem with ingrown toenails, and the cold weather makes the situation worse and he in turn deals with a lot of pain. 

So it's just lucky he won't have to do it on a cold night in Stoke next season.

He's impressed for the stiffs and a lot of people were clamouring for him to be included in the team towards the end of last season

West Ham have agreed a club-record deal in the region of £35m for Lazio midfielder Felipe Anderson, according to Sky sources. Sky Sports News reported earlier on Thursday that there were some other terms still to be finalised – and we understand those have now been agreed. The 25-year old is expected to fly to London today to complete a medical – personal terms are not expected be a problem.

[FLiam]

West Ham are sure making some interesting signings.

[The Lusophone]

West Ham will be this season's Everton.

Bang average?

Barcelona have signed French centre-back Clement Lenglet from Sevilla after activating his 36m euro release clause.

Newcastle midfielder Mikel Merino has completed a permanent move to La Liga side Real Socieded. Sky sources understand Merino’s buy out clause was £10m.

Great business on paper but struggle for much of the season.

Relegation form by December and they have to bring in The Count of Monte Bisto to get them out of a scrap.
