Transfer rumours

[Mattyqpr]

Sheff U willing to give Rak Saki a pay rise in order to sign for them. Latest reports suggest he favours a move to the blades.

Not wishing to be negative but our transfer dealings haven't prepared us for the season opener in 3 days. If Chair and Dykes are not fit, we have Smyth, Frey, Anderson, Dixon-Bonner and Celar up top. We are going to be woefully short of creativity against WBA. We look strong at the back though so maybe we park the bus at home?

Hopefully can get another fwd in before Friday to play can see Celar being out on left and smyth right with Frey down the middle

witbout being to disrespectful to other but last season it was only really chair and Willock created kolli may surprise us but I’d take a point

Sounds good. Frabotta from Juventus. Until you realise he only made 16 appearances in 5 years there. Those mainly as sub.

Also...I thought WBA were in FFP trouble? How have they offered a higher salary than us?

Theyre being monitoring by the FA to avoid breaching FFP and they're within its limits as far as Ive read. The FA would have approved the signing within that plan. Their seasonal budget must still be bigger than ours due to their crowds. I think they've got rid of some bigger earners, so this bloke must be a cheap signing by their standards.

Maybe not a bad thing when you hear this from his old club or am I reading too much into the word "trust":

It is good that we are offloading our unwanted players because that leaves us with only top players we can trust.

Frabotta gone to the Baggies now. All things being equal that’s not a great surprise.

The chances of us signing rak saki have gone up. Sheff utd have signed 2 defenders on loan today. A rb and a cb. Both from prem clubs so they will have paid a loan fee plus the wages to cover. Puts us in a stronger position as they have to comply with loans rules amid a takeover.

[Jeffqpr]

All these rumours keep appearing but Rangers have kept quiet about our signings so far & only appeared when it’s known or confirmed, so I wouldn’t read too much into what’s going on click bait sites

I have read we have agreed to pay a loan fee and all of Rak-Saki's wages to try and steel a march and secure signing. Apparently over half the Championship and some foreign clubs want him. Suggests would be something of a coup if we did manage to get him and had great last loan season. Advantage with us is we are short in that area so he would get decent game time, we now have a progressive manager who could help improve him and geographically easier to monitor.

Bowler would be a potentially great signing as well and of course has shown what he can do in this division.

Being greedy would love both. We have ability to be solid, Varane could sort out central midfield and we are mainly lacking width and creativity. Add those two in alongside Chair, Anderson and Smyth and we have some great options if playing with either a sole striker or two up top. Would give us proper depth in that area.

Sounds as though we are hoping to secure a couple of good quality loan signings which I had hoped at the beginning of the window would be the case.

[Abseits]

Who would you rather have? Rak-saki or bowler??? It's a hard one.

Bowler all day long. He knows the league and won't be phased by playing in some windswept outpost on a Tuesday night in February. The idea of a battle-hardened Pro with a proven track record appeals far more than a youngster with potential.

The Italian guy from Juventurs that we were expected to sign to replace Paal, might sign for our opponents this Saturday ... WBA!

Perhaps the lad from Liverpool better deal and better player?

As for Italian guy once he gets to brum and sees rioting going on he may think sod this

Newcastle in talks to sign palace centre back.
Will they come calling for jcs?
£60 mill btw the fee being quoted.
Can't see Palace selling Eze now though I'd this goes ahead. That's 2 big stars out already and they won't need the money, that's for sure

They won’t have a choice if someone meets the release clause.
