Summer 2021 transfer window

[Alan]

Inzaghi is one of the strangest footballers of modern times. Had practically no attributes, but just scored loads of goals somehow.

By all accounts he looked a proper parks player in training.

The original Cavani, then?

 

[Alan]

Berba can do whatever he wants. What a geezer.

Almost magical.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

We got tenuously linked with him in the first Fosun summer. I'd have loved to have seen him, even as inevitably disastrous as it would have been.

 

[Alan]

You could give me 100,000 hours of training and I still don't think I'd be able to control a ball like that.

Some absolutely fantastic players mentioned in this thread. I think the thing about pace is a lot of people would be surprised at how quick some players are, like Berbatov for example. He may have looked slow but he wasn't, obviously he was no speed merchant but he was quick enough.

Just on Inzaghi he was the ultimate poacher, definitely wasn't quick but he got away from players over 2-3 yards and that was enough. He was also one of the worst footballers technique wise to play at the top level, could hardly control the football at times but he knew where the net was.

I don't believe I have seen another wolves player try so hard to run fast, yet fail so miserably as james henry.

I recall an end of career Terry Butcher winning a foot race with Darren Roberts.

Some Dave Jones-style scouting here, but Abdallah Sima who scored for Slavia Prague last night looked a serious talent. 15 in 22 this season, doesn't turn 20 until June.

It mentioned they'd put a £50m price tag on him in January. Next...

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Buy José for £22m.

Sell him to West Ham for £40m.

Then get this guy. Sorted.

 

[Kenny]

Some Dave Jones-style scouting here,

So are you suggesting we scout him for 3 years, then sign him and then use him every now and again before getting rid?

 

[Law's Bus]

So are you suggesting we supposedly scout him for 3 years, then sign him and then still have no clue how use him every now and again before getting rid?

FIFY.

Silas being the classic example.

 

[Deano]

The Silas thing pissed me off loads, we were a team desperately short on quality - shortly prior to joining he'd got 3 senior Portugal caps and Mourinho wanted to sign him for Porto, we played him left midfield of a 4-4-2 - so he was out of position and then only got a handful of games and then never really seen again apart from odd little cameos.

Does anyone think Scott McTominay would be worth looking at? Hes not a regular first teamer at man United so might be tempted

I don’t think there’s any chance a Man Utd midfielder who plays the majority of games comes to us.

He’s a very good player though and ideal for our box-to-box type midfielder.

 

[Kenny]

Not a fan. Not based on his ability etc just that he is a moaning whinging scrotehead, so that's enough for a veto from me.

 

[Freddeno]

typical box-to-box midfielder that we search for but won´t happen I think

He's in their first 11

On the subject of CBs, I think we're in with a shout for the worst CBs (right now) in the league. I look at other teams CBs and I can't comfortably say that Saiss / Coady / Dendoncker would be an upgrade.
