Summer 2021 transfer window

[Kenny]

Two left-footed CBs? I can’t see us doing that. Unless Botman is us (Mendes) trying to get OM panicking.

Bit of sensible bidding or genuinley after both and Saiss is popping off before the deadline (reality is probably a million miles from this)

 

[The Bion]

I'd hope Duje is the fallback option...Botman certainly looks to have the higher ceiling

 

[Wolvensam]

Or maybe Caleta-Car is us forcing the hand for Botman? Looks like Kounde to Chelsea could be in jeopardy too and they’re holding back Zouma’s move to West Ham.

 

[Kenny]

Sevilla set a deadline of today for the Kounde deal being sorted. Lets see if they stick to that

Someone’s jumped the gun

Can he play in the centre of the 3?

Wikipedia always jump the gun. They like to get everyones hopes up. Bastards.

 

[WolfMan]

Interesting to see Sevilla have suddenly upped the price they want for Kounde, wonder if it could have anything to do with our interest in Botman pushing his price up.

He’s decent, I assumed we’d loan him somewhere in the championship straight away though

If he isn’t first ream ready he isn’t what we need atm. Oven ready first team fodder only please

Yeah, don't sign someone who has the potential to play at a high level for pennies because we need first team players. Like 2 million is anything for a premier League team. The equivalent of me spending 20p.

 

[Tony Towner]

I've never understood why people see it as an either/or. Our none Mendes U23 recruitment track record is decent in a turning a profit, if not buying players who make the first team kind of way. If we don't sign a centre half in the next few days then it's got nothing to do with whether or not we sign Conor Coventry

Not if they don’t sign anyone else. If they sign 3 first team ready players and get this young un in for development then no problem. But development players I don’t see as the priority. I am still reeling at 35 m for Fabio

I have no idea but I would think it’s probably two different teams targeting the development and first team players

That makes no sense. If buying Coventry is something we think is a good thing we should do it regardless of any other deals

It isn’t.

Pleading poverty and buying youth team players that may turn a profit looks like a terrible use of cash.

Disagree with TT our U23 recruitment and sales have been abysmal.

If buying Coventry stops us buying Botman I'd agree with you, but I don't think it would.

Buying players to either develop into 1st teamers or sell at a profit seems like an excellent use of cash to me.

Depends, we are just still waiting to see what comes of Marques, Lonwijk, Bueno, Corbeanu, Sondegaard, Scott. All recruited from 16-18, so always going to take a little longer to see benefits. Think Marques has a fantastic chance here personally.

Matheson is a good signing too for more money. Bolla also has a lot of potential from what I’ve seen and heard.

If we signed too many after 18 would potentially block the above mentioned’s pathways. We just look light at the top end of the pitch which I would agree is at the moment, an oversight. But then we have several out on loan, so who cares if the 23s do a bit worse because of that really.

Different approach to Leeds who’ve gone slightly older and got a ridiculously strong 23s side but time will tell how many of them actually play for Leeds in the league
