⚽ 🔃 The Summer 2021 Transfer Thread

Didn’t Ralph say they won’t go beyond £15M?

Took long enough to get that one completed eh? Did Jannik have to turn 180 during his medical?*

*nicked from daily echo comments of all places!

Ralph having a not so subtle dig at Mr Money grabber Ings.

It’s ok, I have reverse vampire blessed the bigger departures this window the same way as THE fire sale year. Expect some voodoo economics for them coming up this year

Yeah, trophies with the Queen’s head on them, the venal bastard!

We really need a left footed player.
Any idea if any of that lot are?

I think most of them have both. Always a useful attribute, whether they can use either to good effect is unknown.

Apparently we’re supposed to be interested, but probably too expensive. They’re rumoured to want £22m+

Yeah I doubt we’ll be breaking our transfer record in this window of all windows. Even though other clubs are.

That said, these (very) crude and superficial figures suggest that we might still have a reasonable amount to play with. Obviously not taking wages and loan fees etc in to account and me not being able to remember previous windows incomings vs outgoings that might impact the total.

Ings- 30
Vestergaard- 15
Lemina- 3.5
Gunn- 5

Approx total in: 53.5

Armstrong- 15
Perraud- 11
Livramento- 5

Approx total out: 31

I’m bound to have missed something

We could certainly do with some real quality and experience at the heart of our defence. It is starting to feel like we’ve been circling the drain for quite a while now (with the exception of the very unusual circumstances surrounding project restart) and it’s only a matter of time until our luck runs out.

Add in agent’s fees, signing on fees.

Yeah they were loosely included in the ‘etc’!

Other articles say Spurs and others interested, but the Spurs one later denied. Probably agent shopping around to drum up interest and push up the price.

I’d say £15m is more realistic.

My money is on the lad from Forest.

Income - you need to deduct the wages for the remaining term of contract, so a few so Ings probably on 50k a week, so 2.5 mil, etc + 10-15 % agent fees…
