Speculation The hysterical and annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded summer 2018 rumours thread.

Super excited. Get Madison in!

14 Goals, 8 Assists from a very average Norwich team. He's got loads of flair, an eye for goal, great feet, very quick.

Not like for like Mahrez (very few players can be!) but will be a super addition.

 

[Feriol]

Assuming Maddison is confirmed I think the team is starting to look good. Given our players I would like to see a 4-2-3-1

Schmichael
Pereira Evans Maguire Chilwell
Ndidi Silva/Ibbora
TBC Maddison Gray
Vardy

Mahrez replacement the next important signing.

 

[Volpone]

So is he proper good?

Very young team we are putting together. A good manager would do pretty well with them. Shame.

We already have and we are confident you will be proved wrong.

I can see us going with three at the back next season. With Pereira and Chilwell it makes sense to use them in a more attacking role

Yep.

 

[homer]

Nope

 

[H T B]

Maybe

A lot of money for a Championship player but by all accounts he could be the next David Beckham. Out of interest, would that now be the highest fee paid for a Championship/div2 player? Talent attracts talent. No brainer to pick us over Southampton but surprised Everton didn't match the offer as well.

I heard that 4 years ago some stupid club paid £1million for a non-league player. Wonder how that turned out?

You appear to have two years of your life missing.

That explain him missing that player firing his new club to the league championship and then the quarter finals of the European Cup

Thinking about three at the back, the formation England are using could work well with our squad. The following looks decent to me

Kasper

Pierrera
Morgan/new centre half
Macguire
Evans
Chilwell

Ndidi

Maddison
Iborra/Silva

Nacho
Vardy

I know what you mean, but without any depth at centre half, I can’t see it happening.

 

[popillius]

If we are still making do with Chilwell next year then our recruitment won't have been as successful as it looks like being right now. As a defender, he's garbage.

We’re still rumoured to be after that Georgian bloke and Dragovic.

If we get one of those in I can totally see 3 at the back.

Send the bugger back

It's not a bad idea for him to drive one if he wants to keep a low profile out and about. Regular Joe Public would assume he's off to Pilates or doing the school/Aldi run or going for a snatch wax.

 

[Volpone]

Or hoping to get his Rolex nicked.

 

[spionfox]

Can't believe there were no likes for my terrible joke

Those that got it probably wouldn't want to admit it ;-)

Yeah, fair point.
