Our Transfer Strategy & Negotiations

[FA cup winners 2006]

What's wrong with Kayky or Delap, I'd rather we promote someone from academy than just buy superstars.
We are becoming spoiled, I remember when we were happy with the likes of Samaras.

Would prefer to promote youngsters by bringing them in gradually and not be thrown in as our only hope for a goalscorer. That just screams that we have no plan which is disappointing as we have clearly needed a top level goalscorer for a while now. Khaldoon obviously thought so too. The planning and execution of it seems to have been lacking

But that's is part of the problem, we refuse to promote them and play them.
Foden looks more and more like a flower in a cactus and we are happy to stick with what we have without promoting them.

I don't like it, but Rashford was promoted to the team, played on a Thursday night in Europa League and scored 2 or 3, then the following weekend played with Arsenal scored and that was it.
Delap played and scored with B-mouth, played another game where he failed to do so and that was it, no more minutes.

We are a paradox. We win things, but we look like mongs and soft.

The say nothing policy is an issue. Agents/
clubs whoever we look like amateurs even if we only know half the story. Peps arrogance Khaldoons suggestions are becoming the annual bollocks. To not replace Sergio with a ready made replacement has to be sone fuckers head on the block.

[bluemoon]

Will be glad when this transfer window shuts, it’s been a shit show, especially when you take into consideration we spent 100mil on a position we’re already stacked in. Our striking hopes now lie in the hands of an unproven 18 year old, if Pep even plays him!

Another meek title defence beckons. It appears that the execs have learnt nothing from previous windows after winning the title.

Is this the third or fourth summer running that Khaldoon has promised us significant signings during his end of season message? It’s embarrassing.

[Green & Blue]

Club obviously haven’t a notion what they are doing in the transfer market.

Have had years to prepare for Sergios departure and at least organise a half decent replacement.

Unbelievable we are now in this position with what looks like no options at all. To top it off we spent 100 million on Grealish a player we didn’t need and as a result left ourselves without the funds to bring in a striker.

I’m at a loss

Yes arrogance Mase, I never thought Spurs would deal with us. Is it a religious issue. I as a blue think Khaldoon comes across as a confident character but also a touch to cock sure of himself, and within football there is a tell city to fuck off club.

But is he doing the deals, is he negotiating?
Under Marwood we were front runners, today it seems we seem to "pull-out" at every major deal. So I wonder if he is doing all the talking or the Spafia and the other one Benzema or what is his name, a shady character if you ask me.
Kevin was our last market buy?

90% of our transfer were spot on, but this was not a summer to fuck around. It was a summer to solve early what was needed, not wait for the last day of the summer.

At this point we are in a situation where I am more inclined to think we have no option and we will go like this in the season. We won't splash the cash on Isak or Vlahovici and Haaland will never happen.

I fail to understand how people think there is even a slim chance to get him when we are so rigid to even communicate.

What makes you think we have no funds? More than half the Grealish money came from selling other players/sell on fees. Our net spend is about £40m - and that's small change to our owners. If the right players are available (and imo that's not Kane or Tranny) I'm sure the funds will be there.

Net fucking spend? Are we scouse? Jaysua. Is Haaland not available have real not bid for Mbop admittedly, he will not come to us. Every man and his dog knows we need a striker and yet, we could not even get danny ings who would have done a job. Fucking shocking shit-show so far

[Outcast]

Simply wank, Can't buy or sell well

[zuricity]

Messi to PSG
Ronaldo to United
Mendy to Strangeways

What a window

Just pointing out we've spent virtually fuck all, so there's still plenty to buy who's available and needed. It was in answer to your ridiculous notion we have been left with no funds after buying Grealish.

Don’t think we have no funds but definitely feel we’ve really hindered ourselves spending £100 million on Grealish. Think the Messi situation might have been different if this deal hadn’t been done.

First and foremost we needed a replacement for Sergio, next up has to be a left back. If we could afford a luxury signing like Grealish after that then fair enough.

It’s been a hugely disappointing transfer window and at this stage I don’t think we will bring anyone in.

Messi has messed us up twice before - why go back there?
One mistake was made this transfer window - for whatever reason we thought we could get Kane - all eggs in one basket.
Just one mistake but a big mistake.

As far as transfers go - look at our squad. Two quality players for every position except LB and CF without being ripped off (Mendy aside).
That is a transfer policy and strategy that is working.

Putting Grealish as our main target was a massive mistake. We didn’t need him and, although he’s a good player, he’s not any better than what we currently have.

Only focusing on Kane was obviously a huge mistake as you mentioned. Pep said yesterday we never even put a bid on for him as Levy refused to entertain any negotiations. I still can’t work out how we didn’t have a Plan B.

Not realising that Mendy is crap and always injured is another mistake. We’ve been crying out for a left back for years now and we keep ignoring it.

We do have good players and back-ups in most positions. We probably can get away with Cancelo and Zinchenko rotating at left back. But having no striker is not acceptable.

We got away with it last season with our false 9 formation but towards the end of the season teams had clearly worked out how to play against us. Our form towards the end of the season was poor and we’ve had a mixed start to this season.

^^^^^^^

yeah just wait until we get a left back. Then we might even win the league .
