    "Chris Hughton puts a No.10 top of Premier League wish list for Albion"

    Dortmund have already made enquires about Iheanacho, but would be very happy if either he or Abrahams were pulling on a Brighton shirt next season. Bony's also probably headed for the exit door at City, but after the season he's just had on loan with Stoke I'd be a little wary.

    Taxi for Cairney

    Checked and yeah, you're right on the payment front. 13/14 was last for payments being made for four seasons.

    Taxi for Cairney

    Yes, that was their 3rd year of parachute payments, so no payments due next year to them.

    Izzy Brown

    It's possible that there's a pre-arranged purchase option set at that figure in the loan agreement. Chance Chelsea didn't expect him to have such a good season and wanted to make a deal seem attractive at the time it was drawn up. Would expect a high % of future fee worked in and possibly a buy...

    Loanees

    A player has to make a minimum of 5 appearances during a season to be eligible for a medal, so both Tomori and Akpom are.

    Sam Clucas

    His goal against Watford the other day certainly wasn't bad https://youtu.be/L0LFXKZCPKM Think he'd fit in well. Been played by Silva in a more central role recently, but is more used to playing as left midfield, Left back and as a left wing back, so would certainly give extra formation...

    If palace go down

    Huddlestone's a DM. Wouldn't mind either Robertson or Hernandez off them though.

    Villa's small transfer kitty!

    Not that much, but they haven't been shy of flashing the cash last season: 11m on Kodija 12m on McCormack 12m on Hogan Plus lot of other deals such as 9m on James Chester. Was definitely a case of trying to buy self out of the league.

    Villa's small transfer kitty!

    He's recently changed agents and it's no secret that he's looking for a move away this summer. Not doubting his quality but I don't think he'd be the left back signing we need from the times I've seen him play, looks good going forward but I'd have concerns over the defensive side of his play.

    2 'Red Bulls' in Champs League - how will UEFA spin this?

    There's a good chance that Salzburg might not make it to the group stage of the CL, as they'd need to go through knockout qualification first. Assuming they did get that far, I'd assume they would need to do something similar to the Euro's qualification where they kept Spain and Gibraltar apart...

    Are Stoke City sleepwalking into a struggle next season?

    They also paid nearly 12m for Saido Berahino in last window. Bony's wages won't be cheap either. Would definitely have a lot of questions over their recruitment if I was a Stoke fan.

    Purple Bricks v Traditional Estate Agents

    That's why you get three agents round to do a house valuing and also check out how comparable properties went for nearby before putting it on the market.

    Jermain DeFoe

    Yes. Hughton was at Spurs as a coach between 93 and late 2007. He was Jol's assistant when Defoe spent much of his first spell there.

    [Albion] What will be our biggest transfer fee paid out this Summer?

    That's a good point! Anyway Christie's a good shout also, contract is up at Derby, he's looked solid every time I've seen him play and apparently can play anywhere across the back four. Irish international too, so sure Duffy could have a word and help convince him!

    Frazier Campbell

    Saw an article the other week where Norwood was being described as an ex United player and that's despite him having never making a first team appearance. Frazier Campbell is a lower championship player at best, wouldn't be surprised if he's seen holding a Ipswich shirt aloft by mid August.

    Checkatrade (EFL) Trophy to stay the same

    There's no reason why they wouldn't invite us to be. We put a team in last year, we're in the Prem and we have a Category A Academy.

    [Albion] What will be our biggest transfer fee paid out this Summer?

    Christie? Can't we set our sights a bit higher and go after Ince instead?

    Mourinho, 'resting players' for Palace game

    A lot will depend on the outcome of Sundays Palace vs Hull game. Likelihood is that Palace will be mathematically safe by the start of the final game of this season. If not, then still can't see the Prem taking any action against Man Utd for it.
