Summer Transfer Window Thread

[Dumbo]

We definitely have interest in Rico Henry, not sure on Watkins but at the right price we would. One we should be all over is Welbeck, apparently he has a £5.5m release clause. Probably would want too much money for us though.

No thanks. Spends 3/4 of the season injured. 

Joe Williams has signed for Bristol C.

5.5m... plus £80k a week... and he scored 2 goals in the PL last season. 

Bargain!

Another Sturridge. Good player but breadsticks for legs.

I don't think he's quite another Sturridge. He's been very unlucky in that he had a bad knee injury that kept him out for months and then he broke his ankle.

The problem we have is that if we want a Premier League player, we probably won't pay what he wants and the only players we can afford to pay are ones from the Championship level or abroad and that will be a gamble (unless he costs millions and is proven). So, with that in mind, lets give a warm welcome to the savious Tyrese Campbell.

I’d rather take a punt on a £30k a week player who can play every week than a “proven” PL player who will spend half the time picking up £80k from the hydro pool.

I suspect loans are going to be key again this season. No problem with that

Correct. As long as we agree full year, with no call back.

Barnes was heartbreaking and the uncertainty over Grady last year was a shite.

I'm sure I'd read somewhere before that all loans involving Premier League clubs had to have a break clause in it?

As I have said before no one knows our transfer targets. By the Media Joe Williams was one of our Targets. Welbeck a very good player when you can get him fit no thanks.

Although we are only allowed 2 domestic loans....

No that’s not correct, but most parent clubs now insist on it and if the borrowing clubs wants to secure the player for the whole season then they usually demand a large loan fee on top.
