2014 Summer Transfer Window Thread

[GSC]

First topic message reminder :

Who really cares?

[Hero]

Evra reportedly signed an agreement to join Juve this summer despite a 1 year extension last month at OT. Reports that the extension was done by Utd and not the player.

Sweetener for a deal on Vidal?

[GSC]

Seems Atletico are attempting to move onto Keylor Navas

[Guest]

Siem not Luuk.

The guy that's been playing up front for the Dutch champions for the last four years and was among the top ten scorers in the league all of once. Again; decent player, not a guy that's going to bang in 20 goals a season (I'll be impressed if he hits double figures).

His best position is attacking midfielder, not striker. So I'm not sure what your expecting with the 20 goals remark.

Pardew states, "Siem will give us intelligence in the final third and create goalscoring situations,". It is a big signing for this club." He's essentially Cabaye's replacement & hints that the Grenier deal is dead. I still hope we can bring in Cabella, seeing as he hasn't played for France, hopefully interest in him remains low.

[GSC]

Ross McCormack hands in a transfer request.

Seems his mum refused to make him pack lunches.

Debuchy to Arsenal is all agreed for about £12m, confirmed after WC.

Newcastle want Sega Coulibaly & are after Celtic defender Virgil van Dijk

lolololololololol About as good a player as Iffy Ambrose.

[GSC]

Might be a culture shock for him, hasn't had to defend in a year or so.

[Dolphin Ziggler]

No one else at the club knows how to anyway

[Dolphin Ziggler]

West Ham have bid for Dundee united left back Andy Robertson rejected. I think we're very close to this French lad (Kolosomething) so looks like we want back up too as we have no left backs on our books except youth players.

[GSC]

Swansea have signed Marvin Emnes on a 3 year deal

That is something Swansea City have done.

[Dolphin Ziggler]

Starvin Marvin lives again!

[Dolphin Ziggler]

They could really drop this year

[GSC]

QPR bid 4m for Lascelles. They can get ****ed

"Spanish Football Correspondent" Guillem Balague

I heard Arsenal have a personal agreement with Alexis but offer less to FCB than Liverpool. Juve also interested.

* Expect him to go no where or move to PSG   He's about as right as i am capable of fitting inside a 2ft box

  Classic Arsenal, trying to get the deal done on the cheap.

[Dolphin Ziggler]

Hes about two days behind anyone else too

[Dolphin Ziggler]

Di Marzio has been banging on about it for a while.

Celtic sign Craig Gordon. In other news, Craig Gordon isnt dead

[Fernando]

He's a decent keeper when not injured. Could be the end of forster at Celtic guessing might be some truth in him to Atletico?

[Nakatomi Plaza]

Might have him in mind as a back up plan if they can't get Keylor Navas.

[Nakatomi Plaza]

Mirror seem pretty confident that Suarez deal is a goer. Straight cash deal, no Alexis.

[Fernando]

It's too late now for Liverpool, Once the Barca brigade gets going he'll end up in a shirt there sooner then later Barca always get their man regardless of the lengths they have to go it even if it means players/Executives talking about Suarez.

[Nakatomi Plaza]

Be interesting to see how Real respond. I've seen reports linking them to both Falcao and James Rodriguez. i expect they'll make a least one Hollywood signing so as they're not upstaged by Barca.

[NickisBHAFC]

QPR bid 4m for Lascelles. They can get ****ed

Is he really worth 4m?

[Fernando]

Various price come out Mirror gt 55m, DM 72m and so on   

[GSC]

QPR bid 4m for Lascelles. They can get ****ed

Is he really worth 4m?

No, closer to double that. Arsenal bid 5m a few years back (mostly add ons)

[GSC]

Suarez has the release clause so Barca don't have to be strong armed into including Sanchez if they get a cash offer I guess.

[Derbymanc]

If you've got the likes of Shaw going for 30mil Nick then the price for other English talent is going to go through the roof too.

[GSC]

Our owner just bought a 4m house.

Conspiracy theorists, activate

[Derbymanc]

 

[Guest]

Linked with Micah Richards now to replace Arsenal bound Debuchy. Also, NUFC still negotiating deals for Lacazette & Cabella.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

West ham have had a enquiry for Martin Olsson rejected avoiding to ssn

[Roller_Coaster]

10m for McCormack is one of the stupidest moves any team will make this window

Woah, woah, woah. Stupidest moves? I give you two words to put that in perspective, and we haven't even started yet...

Loftus Road.

If there's some poopie out there for exorbitant money, we'll have a piece of it. £10m for McCormack? We'll give them £15m. Upfront. And a sell on clause. Of 125%. And first dibs on our entire squad when we're relegated.

And we'll buy Nani. £35m do? Although we'd end up with Nanny McPhee.

Would you like Fellaini and Cleverly? We'd chuck in Ashley Young too!

Yes - absolutely. Would give us some makeweights to get McCormack   

[GSC]

Aaron Cresswell having a medical at West Ham

[TopoftheChops]

Please don't go cresswell!!!

[whocares]

Real Madrid allegedly struck a deal with Bayern for Toni Kroos for 25 M€ and a 5 years contract.

[Guest]

Kroos deal was done a few days ago, they've also reserved a no.9 shirt for Falcao. Incredible summer signings in Spain, along with Barca's acquisitions of Rakitic & possibly Suarez. EPL will find it tough winning anything in Europe nowadays.

What the future holds for Benzema is up for debate. Must surely be Arsenal?

[GSC]

Arsenal developing a strategy of funding Madrid and Barcas major signings?

[Dolphin Ziggler]

We'll be doing deals and medicals for a few left backs. We've got one already passed but no deal agreed with his club, so I wouldnt be overly concerned yet on Cresswell.

Similarly with Olsson, he's about 3rd choice for our 1st choice left back spot, but we're trying to get negotiations going with all of them so we don't have to play catch up if target one falls through. Loving the way we're working this summer, and our new kit is the jubblies

sorry for double posting then. didnt see it here. Benzema is apparently set to sign a contract extension with RM

[TopoftheChops]

Cresswell deal is pretty much confirmed for west ham. £2-3 million deal

[Lowlandbrit]

Did they sell off their training grounds again or something?

[Derbymanc]

Nice to see FFP is working the way they wanted it too.

[GSC]

Nice to see FFP is working the way they wanted it too.

Seeing as how FFP was designed as a. a publicity stunt and b. a way to protect the big teams, absolutely.

[Derbymanc]

It's ridiculous, a way to stop any new clubs upsetting the apple cart so to speak. I didn't think it would be anything more but I was hoping that maybe just maybe they'd started to put the game on a bit of an even keel.

More fool me.......

Not bad Luis Enrique!

Not bad Ancelotti! Probably too attacking & not most likely line up but still ridiculous. El Classico's should be tasty next year   

[Guest]

Liverpool confirm Emre Can

[Nakatomi Plaza]

Nice to see FFP is working the way they wanted it too.

On that note, the Daily Telegraph are reporting that Man City have had a £32 million bid accepted for Porto and France centre half Mangala.

[Dolphin Ziggler]

Sorry Chops, looks like your boy is ours as all the French media are saying our deal with the Nice lad (a nice lad I hope) is off. Wonder if he'll make the step, thoughts?

[Dolphin Ziggler]

Look at those front threes and just think of the diving, it'll be new levels of annoying. El Clasico is the best and worst game in the world

[TopoftheChops]

Cresswell should be ok in the prem, good set piece taker which should benefit West Ham's style. He is quick enough and a solid defender. Very one footed though and can have lapses in form over the season.
