I think agents are looking for top dollar at the beginning of window and get a reality check as soon as pre-season starts and prices drop
with leicester buying all these players they might not gel
dad 38 can you shut up it getting boring now and im just haveing my view
I'm not sure what people expect over the summer. If we have supposedly had a "lack of activity", which includes breaking our transfer record twice, signing a Dutch U21 International (if that's a definite), doing the leg work on numerous other deals and we've still got 5 weeks to go until the start of the season, then I'm not sure what a busy transfer period would entail. A signing every day by the sounds of it.
Not overly worried and have total faith in Poyet, Bloom and Co. taking us forward.
But to balance your statement out we have lost our best player in Bennett and Murray has left (who arguably was our best striker). Whilst Bergkamp is only a rumour at the moment! So we have only replaced a couple of the several players that have left. (Not going to worry too much about the loss Sandaza et Holyroyd etc)
I didn't think that players had to wait for their contract to expire, i.e. 1st July, as they are allowed to sign pre-contracts. When you look at the transfers listed on the BBC website it says about them being from 1st July but it has been confirmed as a done deal.
Yes this is true but I believe even if they have signed a pre contract there is still a way around it should they change their mind.
