Deemed by some on SC, from the latin transferous underwhelmous

This is exactly what I wanted ??

 

[Tucker]

Assume he’s having a medical in South America as he’s away on international duty?

 

[piedpiper]

Would Dennis Zakaria not have been the better option ? Seeing as that's who Juve will replace him with. Also is this Bentancur chap playing international football for Uruguay? Are they not involved in games right now.

 

[Phil-spur99]

What do people think about this one , aside from excitement about actually signing a player? Does anyone think we should have gone for Zakaria?

 

[piedpiper]

Okay that answers my question.

 

[Tucker]

Okay that answers my question.

I’m just guessing, but Liverpool had no trouble getting Diaz’ medical done.

Would Zakaria reject Juventus for us?

 

[ralphs bald spot]

getting back to the negativity is anyone else worried about when we sign a player with Bent in his surname ?

 

[EastUpperDK82]

It's amazing the feel good factor that transfers bring. My head is spinning and any more will be a massive bonus!

Because they are exciting transfers... and will make us better. We need to shake things up, back Conte and inject some more quality into the squad... looks like we are taking it seriously this time... we shouldn't do transfers for the sake of it... it needs to be a robust strategy... this makes perfect sense ?

 

[Phil-spur99]

Would Zakaria reject Juventus for us?

Probably not. But would they be in for him having just signed DV if they couldn’t shift any other players?

It’s ok, I don’t think he is an Arsenal fan, so should be ok

 

[Silky Skills]

Having a lot of South Americans is a bit of problem with their internationals. Also, I can’t remember too many South Americans that have really done that well in the PL other than Suarez but I’m probably overlooking a few.

Poyet?

Yeah I feel like we've been here before

 

[piedpiper]

I was wondering if he was in the Uruguay squad or is playing currently. I don't get excited about signings anymore... Ndombele and Lo Celso/ Bergwijn to a degree took that energy away..... here's to hoping him and the Swede make a difference and improve us.

 

[Phil-spur99]

Poyet?

Yes. Poyet, I’d agree.

You’re kidding right?

Aguero? Willian? Tevez? Firmino? Fernandinho?

 

[L-man]

Lyall saying we’re done after these 2

 

[Yiddo100]

Covers all possibilities

Lyall saying we’re done after these 2

Even if true, I think it would be a good January window.

Aguero? Willian? Tevez? Firmino? Fernandinho?

Juninho, going back a while.
