Speculation The hysterical and annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded spring/summer 2019 rumours thread.

I worry about his injury record but I think if we are being raped for every Ruble we have then Benkovic will be the most probable go to.

Is that terminology really needed please?

 

[Volpone]

That’s called a negotiation tactic. He’s desperate to get someone else in.

Oh no he isn't.

 

[City Fan]

Oh no he isn't.

Oh yes he is.

 

[Volpone]

Oh yes he is.

Isn't.

 

[Robin127]

Look behind you!

Oh dear. You probably won't like my intended destination for the camels' fleas either.

 

[Skitzo]

some talk of one our our academy wingers going to Southend on loan, most likely NDukwu, would be a good move for him

 

[Volpone]

Scott McKenna of Aberdeen has handed in a transfer request.

Formerly a target of Celtic, could it be they are looking for a replacement for Kristoffer Ajer before we sign him?

 

[foxybru]

Or McKenna to us...if he's a former target of Brendan's Celtic?

Cut out the middle-men

Having 80000000 big ones in your back pocket and going shopping in Scotland would be like the Sultan of Brunei going to a car boot sale.

spending a stupid amount of money just because you have it is how you end up with no money to spend

 

[sparky79]

We've got enough homegrown players to be going on with.
Value from the continent please Mr Rodgers. Bit of quality at either end of the pitch, and shift on some of the dead wood.
I will definitely be disappointed now if we are left rich but without quality cover at the back and up front/wide

Ture. But I've picked up many a top bargain from the car boots.

Is this the winger?

Watford have been trying to get this one over the line for weeks. There could be a reason why they've failed, i.e. we were in the wings and he'd rather join us . . .

Rennes, Watford - Mercato: Ismaïla Sarr is interested in another Premier League club

WRITTEN BY LA RÉDAC JF THE MONDAY 5 AUGUST 2019 AT 20:05
With an exit voucher in the event of an offer exceeding 30M €, the winger of Stade Rennais, Ismaïla Sarr could join Watford or Leicester.

Big offer Leicester for Ismaïla Sarr

Player with the highest market value at the Stade Rennais , Ismaïla Sarr should not make old bones in the Breton club. Conquered for several weeks by Watford , the Senegalese winger is very interested in another Premier League team. According to our information, Leicester is in the process of formulating an offer worth more than 30 million euros (40M € with bonuses) for Ismaïla Sarr . An offer that is likely to hit the ground, knowing that the striker of the SRFC has an agreement in principle with its leaders in case of offer exceeding 30M €. The departure of Ismaïla Sarris more than ever imminent, knowing that Watford could align with the Foxes offer.

What the LM said about him in May - he sounds ideal:

[Brown Nose]

I think Praet is a certainty to come in. If we can ditch Ghezzal in part exchange that's a terrific deal.

[Graz]

Sarr and Praet both heavily linked again after rumours earlier in the summer.

Makes sense that we were maybe looking at them for if/when Maguire left but his sale actually took longer than we expected... But now that he's gone we are revisiting earlier targets.

Could argue its lazy/easy journalism but the sources reporting the interest are ones I trust

 

[TommyK]

Getting those two would be amazing business for the summer. Tarkowski too and it could be the most exciting season since...well...when we won the league.

 

[Miles Away]

tasty

Some of those goals are ****ing outrageous
