Lack of transfer activity.

[seagull_special]

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

I think, as of tomorrow (most contracts end 30/6), we will start missing out... we need to be get moving...

 

[B.W.]

Oh, and if a player is in contract a la KLL, we need to set a deadline to close the deal, or move on...

Plenty of time to go yet. Although Poyet did say he wanted 80% of the team by the time they go back for pre-season, which suggests the summer hasn't really gone to plan so far.

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.

i sure there will be a couple of signings soon and with leicester buying everyone in site there might be some left

 

[brightonmark1234]

but are they champion standard players sorry im just haveing my views

 

[Superseagull69]

I totally agree with some of the previous posters.
I am sure we have already got some deals done but as they are free transfers we are waiting until they officially become one of our players at the end of the current contract, to avoid any chance of egg on our faces should they change their minds.

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.

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)

If it's OK with you guys I'm gonna fret a little and hope that we're not spending so much time on Lua Lua that we are taking our eye off the ball elsewhere

At the the end of the day we have smashed our record transfer fee twice in the space of a month. Theres still 2 months until the window closes. Dont see what the problem is, why rush out and buy players. These things take time. Have faith

Tad concern and worry on the horizon.

Frustating summer , think we'd all admit that

Oh well , plenty of time left although personally I would really like in several new faces for the team bonding in the Algarve

Exactly, we have lost 2 top players and replaced them with 2 top players already. No one is likely to leave now (unless we get any silly offers), any additions now are adding to a title winning squad. 5 weeks to go is more than enough to sign the additional players needed.

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.
