[Football] Transfer Deadline Day no. 1

[Hugo Rune]

Good. Please keep a note of this.

Will do. I’ll diarise the last day of the season to ‘collect £20 from Spence’.

These transfers between Watford and Udinese all seem to be undisclosed (unsurprisingly) however are there any actual rules on market rate and and the actual need to transact the said amount?

I work in AML and beginning to wonder if there’s more to it than the respect clubs best “sporting” interests

I should add allegedly and without prejudice!

A £20 bet on this thread is the biggest news of the day

It’s true!

You need to ketchup with a few of your sauces.

Jack Wheelchair leaving West Hem. Wonder where he will end up.

No one’s coming guys.

Seriously.

You’re setting yourself up for a horrific fall. I’ll log back in at 11pm for a giggle to see the carnage.

Typical palace signing.

Just goes to show you that for every Raul Jimenez there is a Joelinton, Carilo, Locadia etc out there, signing a top class striker certainly isn’t as easy as some our fans think.

Has there been much call for a top class striker, or just a viable alternative for Maupay?

He's finished. Surely nobody will take him in the Prem.

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

Really, read earlier Chelsea would only let him go if loaning club picked up his 150kpw wages....... how on earth is RLC earning that? And surely Fulham wouldn’t pay that?

Fulham’s owners billionaires and complete morons.

Can't say I am surprised but a bit disappointed if we are planning to go into the new season with just Maupay and Connolly up front. We could probably have done with a holding midfielder and a LWB as well but the striker was obviously the pressing concern.

I do trust TB and crew's judgment however. If they felt we really needed someone I'm sure we would have just gone with one of the cheap punts like Dia. Must be plans to use Tross, Jahanbakhsh etc as strikers if needed I guess.

No idea if mentioned previously - too lazy to go trawling through the previous pages. Sky Sports Germany reporting Matteo Guendouzi, Maupay's mate from the Arsenal game who attempted to throttle him at full time, has been loaned to Hertha Berlin.

Wise decision

Not quite. Clubs still have to justify losses against Covid. It shouldn't be a free for all for spending and FFP has been rolled over to 2021.

We can still sign someone like for example Karlan Grant tomorrow.

Tonight's deadline is not close of play.

I’ve never demanded or suggested we should, sound stewardship is better.

But it isn’t hard at all if you’re willing to spend a bit (and not talking about the silly money ones) players like Maupay, Watkins, Brewster, Wilson etc etc.

It is hard when you’ve set yourself a rigid framework like moneyball to operate within, has to be certain, age, price, stats, resale, wage etc. And then still has to want to come here.

It’s a system of financial prudence which is great for stability, and coming from where we did, I’m happy to be prudent....... but it is also inversely proportional to getting those more reasonably priced top strikers which means you simply can’t compete.

It’s a money problem not an ability to get them problem.

In theory yes, but who does Huddersfield replace him with?

Only realistic chances imho are last seasons relegated strikers who they want off payroll. Welbeck, Deeney, King etc.

Doubt Hudds would be willing to sell or loan, unless player agitates for it.
