Summer Football and Transfer Thread 2017

[Zantera]

What's happening at Southampton? Don't get why Puel is being shown the door when they finished 8th and went to a league cup final. That's about max potential what you can get from this team IMO considering they don't seem willing to invest money.

Who are they trying to buy this time?

Alexandre Lacazette and Ivan Perisic apparently.

A workrate forward and a lazy wanker - I mean striker.

Mega lolz @liverpool though. What are they playing at?

Alexandre Lacazette and Ivan Perisic apparently.

Belotti and Morata too.

Don't forget Lukaku and Griezmann.

I don't understand the whole rumors: all of those strikers have totally different qualities and attributes.
What the plan - buy people who score goals and go from there?

[Lollis]

We've been signing Sneijder nearly every year since 2010, this time the papers will be right.

So that's Diego Costa out the door then ...
Dumped by text. Jesus that's cold.

Its chelsea what you expect, get them titles and be on your merry way out the door.

Costa may be a mug but hes been a fantastic striker for them

You're forgetting how he demanded to leave in January.
He started this. This is what he wanted. You can't just decide to leave and then want to stay again when it suits you.

However, Diego is a popular man in the dressing room. Doing it by text is a bit cold, I agree. I wonder how the other players will react, and yes, he's been good to us.

I understand Antonio, but perhaps the wrong way of going about it.

Also, I know you haven't been a United fan for long, but Ferguson was renown for his ruthless transfer policy. That's why he won so many titles. His players couldn't afford to relax.

Chelsea losing Costa and Terry in one season? They might be entirely likeable after this.

Are they replacing all their fans?

I actually laughed, that's a good point.

Hit the nail on the head lol

I'd honestly like to see Chicharito back, but I know it's probably never going to happen.

[sheffield]

England is in a WC final... they could actually win.. they should win...

[WarBringerPT]

Looks like united is not going to renew zlatan's contract. A shame, predictions on where he will end up?, or will he stay teamless till he's fully recovered?

[Valeron]

If that is true about Costa, that is a cowards way of telling him by Conte.

[Sughs]

Sporting sold Rúben Semedo for 14M€ to Villareal.

Word on the street is that Liverpool will give 40M€ for Gelson Martins, 40 seems fair but he is too important to sell, hopefully it's just a rumor.

Indeed. Could have repercussions in the dressing room

[RobertoCarlos]

Man city sign another keeper this time Ederson. That's 250 mill spent by pep at city

[Nerph-]

As we all know I'm no fan of Costa, but that really is a shit way to tell a player they can be off.

Probably means the Lukaku to chelsea deal is close too
