c1982 Posted August 19, 2021 Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 Just now, Gwlad all over said: 20 players named on Rumourama since end of season and not one signed. Probably more to be honest - the ones who went elsewhere will have been moved into general and the 3 we did sign (so far) have come into this section.

As I pointed out to Bill recently, there are 82 pages in the section and you won't find a player we've bought on any of them because, as Carl said, as soon as they're signed the thread will be moved here. We've signed shitloads of players listed in rumourama over the years, every player we've signed probably had a thread.

He’s got an injury and Virginia is off to Sporting so we need a 3rd keeper. Man C have/had Richard Wright and Scott Carson. Lonergan was at Liverpool when they won the league. In reality, we’ll probably never see him in an EFC shirt (on the pitch) but it’s just a precautionary measure as goalkeeper is kind of a specialist position and we don’t have Jagielka in our squad anymore!

Plus it allows Tyrer to go on loan or play every game for the U23s which would be more beneficial than being on standby for the first team.

I have no problem with a third keeper and also didn't realize Tyrer was injured. It FEELS pointless but doesn't necessarily mean that it is I guess.

duncanmckenzieismagic Posted August 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 So are we expecting a frantic last week with Marcel Brands pulling a rabbit out of the hat at the last minute or just a damp squib with more balancing of the books ?

I think we'll be doing a lot of business myself. Whether they're signings that will actually improve us or just a case of shifting big earners and replacing with players on less to balance the books like we have done, is a completely different matter. We're just going to have to wait and see now I suppose. chicagoblue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markjazzbassist Posted August 22, 2021 Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 FIFA relaxed FFP due to covid and wr aren’t gonna be in Europe anyways so I’m confused as to why we need to balance the books. We should be spending and bringing in quality. We still have no RB to replace Coleman. If we don’t get one that will be a massive miss.

AlbanyNYToffee Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 Considering the relatively slow market thus far got a feeling deadline day is going to be crazier than normal with teams shipping players on loan left and right. We've got 5 or 6 who fit the mold assuming we can't sell them first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 I think it will be a busy one too. It feels like there is a lot just waiting to fall into place at the top end of the market and once that is done, the rest of the clubs will wheel and deal. How we end up out of that, is anyone's guess! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dunlopp9987 Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 Brighton close to getting Cucurella from Getafe. One of the brightest young players in Spain.

Palfy Posted August 23, 2021 Report Share Posted August 23, 2021 I’d rather we didn’t buy anyone than panic buy, as long as James and Kean don’t go before the deadline we have a decent enough team to get us to the January window with Godfrey and Gbamin to come in, my only real concern would be the RB position, but I feel we could get through to January or the end of the season quite comfortably with what we have.

Some of their signings this window are bizarre. It is like they are turning into us a few years ago and it will be way too much for a young inexperienced coach like Arteta to deal with!

Cisk Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 I think we will be resorting to loans in and out of the club now for this window. Probably some good options out there for us to get in - I don't know who but sure they are out there. I can see Gordon, Braithwaite, Delph going out, possibly even James. Sadly think Moise will be looking glum come 1st Sept and he is still with us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
