SKD Posted 17 July, 2018 Share Posted 17 July, 2018 I don't know how many bids from top six clubs have they received for their players... I remember when Liverpool finished 8tg, two places below us, and we still sold them our best player and lost our manager to a team that finished 11th... Clearly Burnley don’t have a player of the ability of Mane, but in the same light they clearly (at this stage) don’t have aspirations to be a regular EL team. Comparing us and Burnley when we both retrospectively made the EL is a completely different set of circumstances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Le God Posted 17 July, 2018 Share Posted 17 July, 2018 (edited) How many have they sold... I don't know how many bids from top six clubs have they received for their players... Burnley are a well-drilled side that relies on team organisation and good management rather than a large number of standout players. That is why they haven't sold many. If the players we have sold had been Burnley players they would also have left, possibly even sooner than they did as our wage budget is a lot higher than Burnley's. I'd still rather have our squad than Bunrley's, it is just we have had a terrible manager in Pellegrino who stunted and held back our squad and they had Dyche.

SuperSAINT Posted 17 July, 2018 Share Posted 17 July, 2018 Newcastle want Rondon. Newcastle have spoken to West Brom over the potential signing of Solomon Rondon. We understand the striker has a £16m release clause in his WBA contract. However Newcastle are unlikely to meet that clause until they sell Aleksandar Mitrovic. Fulham want to buy the Serb on a permanent basis following an impressive loan spell last season, but would need to pay in the region of £18m.

Pamplemousse Posted 17 July, 2018 Share Posted 17 July, 2018 Indeed. The ones that follow players and not teams. I'll never understand that. If we signed someone as high profile as say Ronaldo or Messi, I'd buy a shirt with Ronaldo's name on the back, as would many others. The queues outside the megastore would be mega long.

Lighthouse Posted 17 July, 2018 Share Posted 17 July, 2018 Still bs IMO. Sort of story bred for internet. Indonesians and Bangladeshis (?) aren’t buying the 90€ shirt in their tens of thousands Some insane figure around Neymar. I am just took old and cynical If the transfer hit a hitch have they got half a million shirts down the pi sser? Serie A not global like PL and La Liga although that was clearly purpose of signing. Surely if it's on the day he was unveiled, they are beyond the point of hitting a transfer glitch. Anyway, half a million shirts really isn't much of a stretch. That's like 1 in 1000 men, in China alone, buying one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint86 Posted 17 July, 2018 Share Posted 17 July, 2018 Ultimately Sean Dyche has shown what a well drilled team can do. Alot of other sides are not as well bonded or drilled. They spend fortunes on players with little thought to chemistry and some of them ultimately struggle. Sadly i think Bournemouth will struggle in the coming seasons. That is not a sustainable outlay for them. In comparison i feel comfortably with Hughes and our approach this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 17 July, 2018 Share Posted 17 July, 2018 Yeah, Laxalt was one of Uruguay's best players I thought. Good little player.

SuperSAINT Posted 18 July, 2018 Share Posted 18 July, 2018 Joao Mario to Wolves seems much more likely than his link to us. Wolves 'offered chance to snap up World Cup star Joao Mario' Wolves could be offered the chance to sign Joao Mario for a cut-price £24m. The Birmingham Mail say the Premier League side have been looking at Mario as an option in midfield on a loan deal with a view to buy. Reports have indicated that Inter would only be willing to loan the player to wolves if they paid a €5m loan with a €30m obligation to buy. Jorge Mendes has been negotiating with the Italian club over a potential deal and the Italian press are now reporting that Milan coould look to sell him instead of loaning him out. Gazzetta dello Sport claims that a deal could be made that sees him leave for a fee in the region of £24m on a permanent deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperSAINT Posted 18 July, 2018 Share Posted 18 July, 2018 Everton ramping up.... Welbeck and Zaha on Everton radar as boss Silva looks to overhaul squad It’s Everton, Everton, Everton this morning... Wilfried Zaha features prominently on Marco Silva’s wishlist of targets as the Everton boss plans his Blues overhaul. Silva feels Zaha could give Everton the pace and creativity they badly need up front and transform their toothless attack. However Crystal Palace are determined to hang on to the former Manchester United forward and would want at least £60million for him. This could price Everton out of a move and Silva must spread his budget over a number of positions this transfer window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
