Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window (34 Viewers)

[ptr]

Am I the only one that thinks we need a winger much more than a striker? Haji is obviously going to play through the middle when he's fit and we have no like for like depth on either the left or right.

Competition for Tats is a must and I have said that all Summer. And before someone says Rapha, when Tats was on his arse end of last year he still didn’t get a look in. Need someone who is actually trusted to come in and play. Hoping we get the best out of Tats if we aren’t burning him out as well.

Ipswich the year they went up rotated the attack perfectly and had depth on the wings. Major contributor to their success.

Raphael needs to be moved on, he's just taking up a squad place for fuck all.

Seen a few mentions online about us being close in agreement of a youngster called Oliver Irow on loan from Tottenham. Wide winger, can play both wings and through the centre.

@AFCCOVENTRY had a tweet on it last night so is there any idea if it's truthful or load of rubbish?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Too late. He's already signed for Espanyol!

Finger on the pulse!

You should go for a coffee with Mucca Mad Boys

Max Lowe leaving Wednesday after non payment of wages.. 28 yr old central defender, worth a look ?

no

 

[TomRad85]

no

The Bernard suggestion by someone was laughed at but he'd definitely be a decent squad player. Better than Lati imo... absolute bellend mind so probably a no go.

Hell no

He's a 5'9" left back, and not a particularly good one.

 

[TomRad85]

I think the club know we need another winger, we almost got Matondo in don't forget.

he back from that knee injury? sounded like a bad one?

Missing the start of the season apparently. Must be about 5 available players for them at this rate

 

[Danceswithhorses]

Derby seem to be doing a lot of deals (sadly)...Brewster (ex Sheff Utd) and bid for (Scottish right back) Max Johnston from Sturm Graz.
Eustace seems to be overhauling their team wholesale.
Also noticed Middlesboro potentially signing (right back) Callum Brittain from B'Burn - always rated him, and good value for £3.5m imho.

KKH was better value.

maybe they can some of the people who brought season tickets in the rotten stand to play instead

It's difficult to have sympathy for them. Don't want them to go out of existence, just piss off to league 1 in embarrassing fashion.
As always I'm thinking what could we do if anyone walked away. There's not much but as squad players I'd take..
Bernard
Valery (if MvE goes)
Ingelsson, actually don't know how his season was in general but looked a good player vs us.
That's it really and as I say it's just squad players.

I laughed because he’s clearly just a massive shithouse

There’s being a shithouse and there’s being a thug. No thanks. Another incident that proved how incompetent the FA actually are.

Bore off

 

[FergieTheFinisher]

What’s your thoughts on him then?

From what I’ve seen he’s a good CB with pace and he’s good playing it from the back. Personally would have him over the starting CBs at the moment.

Well I really do not think he would be an improvement.

He’s 26, been with a quality coaching environment for some time so I would guess he has hit his ceiling and there would be little uplift we could expect.

I think currently both Thomas and Kitch would be better. So he would only be a bench warmer, and we’ve just got rid of one of those.

if we buy/ loan a new CB I would want to see better than what we have. Hopefully Frank will bring in some more quality, he’s doing well so far.

 

[Cally Fedora]

Simms has never got 20 goals. last season he got 6. Fact.

And the year before? In this division? For us? Or does that not count.

 

[TomRad85]

Yeh he's an absolute dick. He'll probably go somewhere he'd start regularly tbf which would be pretty much all the bottom half of the Championship.

In this division he got 13?

One of those players like O'Nien who engages in that nonsense because he isn't good enough on the pitch.

Wednesday have a lot of snide little bastards tbf. Or should I say, 'had'.

They have also got a load of injured players who will miss the start of the season.

Piranhas circling around them, doesn’t make up for having Birmingham and Wrexham around but good compensation.

 

[CovLad94]

Are you sure !!

Might live to regret that comment in next 48 hours or so.

Know something we don't?

 

[Levship20]

This is what City and other teams in the Championship are competing with, a relegated PL team dropping £20m+ on a player from a rival club.

This would be a record transfer fee paid for a player in this division.

View attachment 44908

I personally think if we can get Callum Doyle on a loan to buy for £10m, it would be a steal.

I wouldn’t pay more than £5m for him and Hackney has blanked Ipswich

Not 20 that's for certain

This window has been a snooze fest so far

Has been quite boring tbf, which is fine but I sorta had hoped by now that we’d have a few quality signings all ready to go for the season. All gaps plugged in the squad, no weak areas, some class up top, some leadership and quality at the back, but apart from KKH it’s basically the same team?

They're going to do a park the bus hospital bed strategy next season

Still as divorced from reality as ever mate

How do you propose we fund all this? The team we have finished 5th and so far we have added to it and not lost anyone of any note
