Re: The 2015 Summer Transfer Rumour Thread

[Kick]

Boga looks to be going to Rayo on loan while Feruz might be heading to Oldham.

[Shed]

Everton have rejected our latest bid, they remain adamant they won't sell him.

Two options here, move on or keep throwing money at them.

I'd rather move on and buy someone cheap.

Told you it weren't gonna happen.


Not that I take any pleasure in saying that, mind.

[Kick]

Well, I wanted us to move on ages ago.

I will lol if Stones struggles this season

[Shed]

They'll never got more for him than what we're now allegedly offering.

Pride > Logic for Bill ****wright.

[Kick]

Indeed.

[Katy Perry]

Did we have a plan B in case Stones's deal failed? Or it was always going to be either him or nada?

[Kick]

Chelsea have made an offer for China and Guangzhou Evergrande defender Zhang Linpeng, Chinese media reported on Friday.

The Premier League champions sent a contract on Wednesday and hope to secure the 26-year-old right back before the summer transfer window closes on Sept. 1, Titan said.

"I'm very happy and very excited to finally have this formal invitation. I've worked hard and waited these five or six years for my dream of playing overseas, and finally have recognition from the English Premier League."
"Although I'm unable to play Premier League directly, I believe Chelsea will have the most professional arrangements regarding my permit. I have no worries at all about the negotiations."

Uhhh, Bran to CB, Zhang as back up RB?

[Shed]

Zhang as first-choice shirt-seller, you mean.

[Kick]

If he is decent, I don't care where he comes from

[Shed]

Nor I. But the record of Asian players in this (or any) League isn't exactly the greatest, and as a defender no less? And a defender under José Mourinho further still?

Easy to see why I'd have my doubts/incredulities.

[Kick]

Plus, he is 26 and yet to be picked up by a European team? Worrying.

[Shed]

Smacks of a Fergie-esque token Asian jersey-flogger.

[Kick]

Then why didn't we sign an avarage asian RW?

RB seems too risky to me.

[Uncanny]

why is he called the chinese sergio ramos lol

[Abramovich]

Goal scoring attacking defender, please come home

[Kick]

Apparently our back up options to Stones are Garay and Abdennour

Neither seem particularly available or cheap.

Jose has stated he wants one player before the window shuts, though.

[Kick]

So, Abdennour has moved to Valencia.

We've been linked to Laporte, Marquinhos and N'Koulou (finally). Laporte will cost us 50m euros, Marquinhos is not for sale so N'koulou is our best bet.

Boga is looking likely to go to Rennes on loan while Chalobah is close to joining Napoli on loan.

Two days left in the market, which us get N'koulou, loan out a few of our youngsters and not address the RB issue.

[Abramovich]

Would rather have Laporte... Our board or Mou hot complacent.

[Kick]

I would, too.

I'd take a RB over both, though

[Kick]

Di Marzio just tweeted that we're in talks to sign Papy Djilobodji, a CB from Nantes.

All I know about this guy is that he'll cost around 5m and is OP on fifa.

[Soul]

Always a good sign

[Kick]

Get French Football now reporting that Djilobodji is having his medical at Cobham now...

[Kick]

Apparently we've been scouting him for 2 years and our French scout is quite a fan.

[Abramovich]

Come home Laporte.

[Kick]

50m for Laporte or 5m for Djilobodji?

[Abramovich]

Laporte is 6 years his junior, either way *bleep* Everton silly bleeps hope they get relegated.
