thebrokendoll 10241 Posted August 20, 2024 Share Posted August 20, 2024 (edited) transfer window is gathering pace towards the inevitable SLAM. we've bought a goalkeeper for £24m who was third choice at a team that was flirting with relegation last season and dug another fucker up from the grave. failed seemingly to even try to upgrade on almiron while simultaneously off loading to one of our direct competitors for a europeam place possibly the brightest young prospect on the right wing the world has ever known. not only that, we've shipped out the geordie maradonna for a fraction of the price the mackems are guaranteed to get for some cunt called clarke who no fuckers ever heard of. come back mikey lad and bring your mate thumbheed with you. I for one never had a bad word to say about yous. edit..... and how could I forget? we've spent nearly a month putting in over 100 bids for a central defender in 50p increments!

I bet he is glad as they don’t have a game tonight. That would be some top level ghosting. They are playing Servette on Thursday.

The hope is we give Gordon, Isak, Tonali contract extensions to reduce the amount we're committed to spending each year. Maybe Barnes too. Obviously this doesn't account for the amount we're paying in wages on the likes of Fraser, Hayden, Lewis etc. There's a lot of shit that we really need off our books. A lot of Shit. Why is Joelinton (for example) a PSR cost (other than wages) he’s bought, paid for and amortised?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTF 8396 Posted August 20, 2024 Share Posted August 20, 2024 We're cautious with our signings because we know how detrimental it is to our bottom line to have deadwood on big contracts hanging around and as Howe has said so many times we won't buy for the sake of it, they have to improve our team/bring something new. Something new like an overpriced Greek shot stopper apparently* * Not undermining Eddie, that's beyond his control and he wasn't happy about all of that, most notably Anderson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect we've spread the remaining 12months we owed on him over the length of his new contract extension. Still doesn't explain the low Tino payments!

Holden McGroin 7541 Posted August 20, 2024 Share Posted August 20, 2024 I’d rather have Anderson for £30m than Guehi for £65m. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isegrim 10326 Posted August 20, 2024 Share Posted August 20, 2024 As I said when all this bollocks started, it would have been nice to get Guehi as a statement signing but I am actually not fuzzed about the likely failure. It will hurt Crystal Palace more than us when they will have to sell him for less eventually. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wykikitoon 22731 Posted August 20, 2024 Share Posted August 20, 2024 Parish pricing him out. He's shot himself in the foot there IMO. We need to move on ASAP. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 7607 Posted August 20, 2024 Share Posted August 20, 2024 Cognitive dissonance aaall ower the shop. He was our best player during the Euros. We need a RCB as a long term replacement for Schar, and Guehi would have been a perfect statement signing ala Bruno and Isak. We've been left with egg on our face and whoever we end up with will know they were second choice. And don't get me started on starting ANOTHER season with the fucking heedless chicken rampaging down the right wing and then turning around and running back in the other direction 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isegrim 10326 Posted August 20, 2024 Share Posted August 20, 2024 He didn’t play for Germany. I can’t keep track with KD and his changing tune about if we should sign Guehi or not. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
