It smells goodbye and that could happen soon! Thomas Delaney (26) have been inquiring for weeks.

Now his departure from Bremen is getting more and more concrete.

At least one concrete offer for the Danish midfield star is Werder Bremen.

Manager Frank Baumann confirms BILD: "It's the case that one or the other interested club has reported on a change. We are in talks."

Baumann negotiates about Delaney change!


But it should not be about a departure within the Bundesliga. Dortmund had recently shown great interest.

According to BILD information, Baumann is currently playing poker with a Premier League club over a transfer in the summer break.

Baumann: "We can not rule out that Thomas leaves us."

Condition is that in addition to the sporting perspective for Delaney and the coal for Werder agrees.

Oops.

Stand down everybody, it's not us.

Were they to have written:-

Baumann is currently losing at poker with a Premier League club over a transfer in the summer break.

We'd know he was in the area.

 

[Hugo Rune]

He is left footed. Adds an extra dimension to our central midfield.

Blimey, if this happens we could almost be done by June

 

[spence]

The end of days.

What a thoroughly depressing Summer that would be.

Might mean you post less drivel ?

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

I think you are right, most of our business could well be done.

The end of days.

What a thoroughly depressing Summer that would be.

It is clear that we are trying to get the main deals done before the World Cup.

Winstano is in Europe before the cup, will return for 4 weeks watching the TV, and then will have 4 weeks in England trying to persuade any professional northerners to move south, while Barber ties up the annual loan from Chelsea.

So there still should be stuff to look forward to in August.

Not for those who will still be proclaiming we need a new RB, new LB, new CB, new DM, new AM ad a new winger it won't!

Well we defo need a new LB and RB

 

[Johnny RoastBeef]

Well we defo need a new LB and RB

Agreed, but many clubs promote youth players from other positions into the senior squad by using them as fullbacks, so do any of our best u23s fit the bill?

The more I think about it, if we were to sign Delaney, the more likely we are to change our formation. But a 433 would marginalise Gross, so perhaps 5-3-1-1 is the future? If so we are going to need to find a couple of Kyle Walkers.

Not for those who will still be proclaiming we need a new RB, new LB, new CB, new DM, new AM ad a new winger it won't!

If we get Delaney and an attacking midfielder ( and sort out the keeper situation ), we can pretty much go with what we've got. This rest is squad 'tinkering'.

And there’s a statement dripping in irony

 

[Change at Barnham]

21st June - Denmark v Australia.
I'll be in Samara at the game, so I have a chance to possibly see two Brighton players face each other.

Fingers crossed it's us he wants to sign for.

 

[moggy]

Still need a decent right back

 

[227 BHA]

Still need a decent right back

That’s a bit insulting to our captain! We have a very decent right-back imho - agree that we do need another younger option though?

 

[Mellotron]

IF this has anything to do with us, you'd have to say we've had a VERY good few weeks in terms of transfers. Very little else to do over the summer.

Getting all our business done BEFORE the World Cup would be superb.

 

[GT49er]

That didn't take long!

If we get Delaney and an attacking midfielder ( and sort out the keeper situation ), we can pretty much go with what we've got. This rest is squad 'tinkering'.

Maybe more a case of Delaney or an attacking midfielder, but I agree about the rest being squad tinkering. We don't need - and certainly won't get! - anything like a whole new team.

 

[Gwylan]

Well we defo need a new LB and RB

We have two LBs, neither of whom is at the end of his contract

We do need a back-up for El Capitan though

 

[Lewes Punk]

The way I see it, if Delaney signed for us it would mean Propper could play sometimes where he does now and sometimes in the Gross role. That way, with rotation, all three of them, plus Dale, would be getting regular games.

That would be Schelotto (sp?) then - although I think El Capitan might be the one who is the back up next season.
