Summer Transfer Window Thread

[Jack Halford]

Agree, but it’s unfair to put Kanu in the same bracket as Berahino, Charlie and Anelka.

He had a great first season but was woefully underused by Robson.

Kanu definitely does not deserve lumping in with those twats.

Yes fair point, you're both right. Under used, as opposed to couldn't give a toss.

Nixon nor reporting Fulham are in the Robinson race and offering 50k/wk which we see as too rich... given the average PL wage is about that it looks like we really are keeping the pennies tight.

Shame we didn’t think 50k/wk was too rich for Austin!

50k a week for a young lad who’s untried at the top level is hardly us being tight fisted.

We’re never going to compare with Fulham’s billionaire owners but if the right player comes along, I’m sure we would t be oppose to paying those weekly wages.

I know Antonee Robinson is cheap, but is he that good? The player that really shone when Wigan played us was Sam Morsy*, but no one's all over him.


*Yes, I know he's a Dingle.

50k feels a lot, but as KKC and co always say, it’s about the total cost of the transfer.

A 4 year deal for Robinson on £50k/wk, plus a £1.5m transfer fee is £12m... and this is for a player who was valued at £10m prior to their relegation. 

The lad from Genk is being linked at £6m... so would have to earn less than £25k/wk...

Morsy a good player but not particularly mobile as IMO. Williams did the running for him. 

We do need a ball winner in the middle bit think we need a bit more energy.

[Dumbo]

I’d prefer Rico Henry to Robinson.

Hegazi’s Egyptian team mate. Always thought he was a good player but he’s not the most mobile.

Lille have signed Jonathan David (who looks a right player!) from Genk for £25m... imagine they’ll have pulled out of Morelos...
