Hi all, have we actually signed De Ketelaere and Dest for the summer or was that a joke?
Its pretty urgent, thanks in advance.... I need to update my signature team... ;)

Interesting lack of striker transfers in.

I wonder if the top 4 race will boil down to who avoids injury out of Lacazette, Kane and Antonio.

As ever, and has always been, Son.
Even when we had Llorente and Jansen, it was Son who was considered 'that guy'.
Conte also seems to like Bergwijn there, and in recent showings he might have a point.

No mate, that was just a joke.
As far as we know, nobody has been lined up for the summer yet, well, not officially anyway.
I'm hoping Paratici has a few things in the pipeline.

You always were a cheap bastard!! that's fine though as i never shared anything and you cant hassle me on the site that shall remain nameless on here! Funny old window and we were royally shafted on Diaz just like we were a few years ago on Fernandes when we thought we had a deal with Sporting. Presidents make the calls with the agents and we did it by the book but that is football transfers in a nutshell.
Sets us up great for Summer window where we will be doing our business as i explained before AC will be supported and backed or else there was no point in bringing him in. No secret that he prefers a smaller tighter squad of people that want to die for him on the pitch and he definitely has that. The RWB has been identified and will be brought in then too. Traore couldn't do what we want at RWB so that's why that didn't happen. Cheers all before i say too much :)
that's the thing for me. Shift out the "main" people Conte doesn't want and it sends a clear message to those remianing. Sign up with the manger or leave. Just like we did with Poch with the Kane revolution, We shifted out the people not pulling in the same direction as he was. I'm happy. On another note is blue and yellow now black and white, and do I have to change my avatar?

Just hope this squad/ wage trimming means we can be proactive and get deals in for a proper pre season for once!

What a window, is it just me or were we way more efficient with our outgoing this time around?

Ok mate, thanks for the response. Means we're pretty light weight in the middle and no real back up for Kane. Oh well, definitely amazing business to offload the bad apples and bring in some quality with the Juve lads.

Now, this excites me.

Hope it's Lamptey ?
I hope it’s Baku. But either way it’s really reassuring we have honed in on a specific target for the position that everyone will agree on. Definitely the most important position by far that needs upgrading, and I’m glad Traore wasn’t bought for the sake of it if he wasn’t deemed able to perform the role to Conte’s liking.

I know this will be impossible, but is there a possibility now that the forum can stay calm during the summer window and just hand over the trust to Paratici as he has shown he deserves at this point?

I’m proper ‘meh’ about this window. It was just ‘ok’.
Not overly excited for the next half a season... but hopefully we can surprise everyone

The last time we brought in two or more players in January who could be realistically considered as challenging for a place in the starting XI was thirteen years ago, 2008/09.

We shifted three underperforming players the manager didn't want that, had you polled this forum a week ago, I'd bet most of us thought at least two of them would still be here.

In context, it was a pretty good window.
