Main striker target is playing in prem not at a bottom 3 team or top 4 from last seasons table so that gives u a good clue

he will cost around 50 will only happen if we shift Tanguy

we have interest in Tanguy but not at the 42 mill Dl wants

the striker will only happen if Tanguy goes imo unless we Sell others and as things stand no firm interest in our players apart from serge

no interest in winks or lamela contrary to press

Jose does not want Suarez

korean lad big chance Jose likes he is big and strong and Wants to come our only concern is like son he will Play a lot of internationals

my feeling is serge and Tanguy will go and the Korean lad , one of the three right backs Ive spoken about and the striker Will come in

like holberg the other two players we want are really good solid pros , I actually like Jose choices , neither player are Crazy Money the board should deliver imo , for the two players we are a big step up for both which is why I think will happen


Right back and second striker are the biggest priorities right now

midfield it will be holberg with one of glc or winks and we have sissoko too

Jose loves rakatic , we have been offered lots of real and Barca players but many are seen as luxuries and we want to get the players Jose wants first as in players in their prime who will be key components just as you can see holberg will be , theN we can look at taking one or two in on frees if the wages aren’t insane
we have tried and failed again for bale in the last week honestly that would only happen last min if bale decides he wants to come and will take a huge wage cut

One comment on the Dragon stuff, draw your own conclusions.

He hardly posted any ITK for years, he got into a big argument with someone on FTL and quit. He reappeared on COYS (where I thought he was banned, how did he convince them to let him back..?) and now regularly has a ton of ITK again.

barca want a fee for rakitic as things stand we will only do a loan as he is 32 but Jose loves him
if the club would sanction it Jose most definitely thinks he has another season in him for sure

Regarding to some fringe players being bought

the reality is there has to be buyers for these players and other than tangy and serge who we have had bids for but not at the right level we have no interest in players currently and to be frank only Kane , son and gio are untouchable right now we would look at all other bids
we have very little money , the right back we really want they are asking 35 million and the striker 45-50 , these deals only happen if serge and tangy go and we recoup 60-65 million

tangy is also on massive money shifting him would also allow for a couple of loans
tangy only goes for 42 mill otherwise he stays put

IF true about Keeping "FatBelle" at any cost.... its absolute horseshit business... he is currently worthless to us as he isn't good or committed enough...
We were sold a dud and therfore cannot expect to sell him on at a premium because his fragility has been well and truly exposed.
At best he is a prospect for a manager who thinks they can get the best out of him... if we keep hold of him he keeps collecting exorbitant wages, decreases in value, gets older, less fit, fatter, gastrict bypass, more injuries, more demoralised etc etc etc...
Get shot of the fat fuck now for 30/35 mill, cut your losses ,save wages, demonstrate that you can't sit around like a beached whale collecting wages being treated like a king at WHL you'll get chopped.
Sorry, but if our business model is to sit on a detiriating asset (or should I say expanding ASSet) in the hope someone is desperate enough to cover our costs then why in fucks name is that bald cunt paying himself soo much money because that is horse shit business.

Now it’s out happy to confirm the right back is Doherty

he is the only wolves player we are after

those doubting the chances of this do not dismiss the Portuguese influence here and agents involved

I have no idea where he got the number from , Alistair has good contacts at the club though my suspicion is they leaked that number to get the price down

we were quoted 35 last week , I can tell you we are struggling to get Milan even to 18-20 right now on aurrier and that needs to happen first , but the boy would like to come and wolves are obviously looking for a replacement

Doherty is first choice

ITK from Dragon- 'Now it’s out happy to confirm the right back is Doherty' - brilliant insider knowledge there.

TN ‘may’ prove more difficult to shift than one can imagine. Will not share here why, as it will get out everywhere. Do not get too excited on the target man we may end up landing. He can definitely do a job. Not Troy Deeney. Forget any strikers from Bournemouth. We won’t be paying those kind of figures. Neither, whiist I am at it, can I see anyone paying 25m for Wilson.

Ajax? Possibly something both ways! Not 100% sure. I am posting as don’t want to be commenting after the event-if (A BIG IF!!!) news breaks

If?! It happens, can only happen if player we want to trade off accepts, and Ajax accepts. Don’t know about other clubs, but you all guessed the name. For the record, o don’t do or have Twitter! I was told mid-day today, and pm’d privately. As it is not everything I put here.

We are in for the Madrid left back who was on loan last season but we are one of four

the striker who I’ve tried to hint at as much as possible ( two very good recent seasons in pl ) is not happening at moment due to price and we can’t shift Tanguy

re the ajax lad DL , Jose and sh all huge fans I’m not aware of developments in last day or so but would not be at all surprised if ajax need money it’s type of deal dL would fund now at 25-30 million

Korean deal riddled with issues

I shared what I know Peeps re Ajax and obvious player. The caveat with this is/was player/s going the other way. More DL effort/drive. As I stated ‘if’. Being the operative word ‘IF!’. What I do know is we have been talking to Ajax seeing if a creative deal could be struck, along the lines mentioned.

shared as I got it earlier.

Many are reporting we are not in for a left back this window this is incorrect , next to the striker I’ve hinted at reguilon is our next biggest priority

the problem is that after paying for Doherty we have no money until we sell

Doherty was 14 plus 2 in add ons he is 29 soon but still incredible business bearing in mind chillwell went for 50

we have a loan offer for foyth but that does nothing for us we want the sale money , we need to get shot of rose , foyth , aurrier , Tanguy to get what we need
Jose wants a striker , lb and one more mid if poss

scum wanted Doherty but could not raise the money they are over committed on other deals right now

 

[USspur]

As I’ve discussed there were five potential strikers

3 of the 5 are king , Ings and Chris’s wood

a week ago ings was fav as we looked like Tanguy may go and we would have the money for ings

today I’d say it’s Chris wood but lazio are in heavily

there has now been progress on a permanent sale of foyth to another pl club , if we can shift him and Serge by mid week it will probably pay for the next signing

Also whilst not impossible and there is interest a deal for the ajax Lad is looking unlikely as of now

way I see Josh King happening is if Bournemouth come off the happy pill with what they think they can get for him. Told that we are still talking to Ajax. We have very strong relationship with them. They fancy Sess on loan is true.

EDIT: Ajax interest in our talks is not just one player

 

[USspur]

stop confusion re Ajax and us. We were talking to them 100% DVB, in alignment with my post yesterday. They interested in Sess on loan. We are looking at couple scenarios, with a player of theirs. I cannot give specific name for now.

to add, they fancy Foyth. Lots of suitors for him.

I honestly don’t think they’ll have Much of a net spend this window , I think rose , foyth and aurrier will bring in 40 , king will come for around 10 which takes us to 27 And will use the rest for the left back

Today king is flavor of the month on the strikers front and we are In talks , it has literally gone from ings to woods to king in a week

bournmouth set what most would consider a reasonable amount for a striker in modern terms despite kings contract length, price Under 20 and levy then offered a little over half their valuation lol

 

[Don Diaz]

Is the rationale for signing a back up striker the same as it was for signing Joe Hart? I'm not sure what the point is when we actually play almost as well and score lots of goals when Kane is out and Sonny comes into his own, plus we now have Bergwijn as well....What is a back up striker going to do? play Europa League and League Cup games???

I think it would allow us to keep similar formations with a player who can hold the ball up,compete for long balls in the air and hoprfully score a few.Yes Son and Moura can play through the middle,but a little lightweight regards hold up and aerially.

King looks like happening

see Wilson mentioned in this thread we don’t have much interest there king is the one

lb not looking good right now

Tanguy too inter now has legs but long way off will be after season starts , I do not have his replacement Name yet but bearing in mind Jose still wants a lb and mid there will def be one , the Tanguy money will buy a special player in a depressed market

bale looks like he will be getting splinters on madrid bench next season yet again it’s not happening there either

Subject: Replying to dragon1's info is directly contradicting what Ally Gold reported today re: Josh King

Confident in my info I know what we offered and what we were countered , Jose prefers king over Wilson

burnley want a lot of money for woods and ings is 50

Tanguy not likely to go for another month so we don’t have the money for a big striker now and we need for uefa and league cup etc

I'm with Ally re King.
Oh and Tagliofoco looks to be more Ajax idea than ours. Not ruling it out if players should move the other way, but def not a priority.

Jose wants a striker, we are 100% looking to get this done. King is doable, but other more preferable options are being explored.
Plenty of time left to make sure we get the biggest bang for our buck. Not all of them have to be in by the start of the season.

Most likely outcome for NDom is a loan with option/obligation

Re TN
I believe Trix means ‘Loan with irrevocable purchase’ at end of loan term. DL will NOT loan with open options. It would leave us financially exposed, and not good for our balance sheets.

Milan dreaming, but thus far nowhere near. Our valuations on their ‘aged’ players (with no future sell-ons’ not good for us. Lyon have us tied in on our agreement of purchase. We cannot sell at a lost! Difficult one.

Save the debate on lost against what we purchased him for. As far as DL is concerned, he wants his money back! We can argue until the cows come home. That is what he wants! So if anyone wants to sign him, we will only accept a ‘tie-in’ to purchase at end of loan!
