That 'Get Down Saturday Night' track will live on forever though.

Hope we're still in for Donnarumma.

Agree wholeheartedly on Donnarumma. Can't believe we'd spend big on another goalie though

A lot of hype about 18 months ago...has some talent.

We'd hoped he'd be another Yaya, I believe.

So we have sold a fella for £7m who has barely even been in match day squads and the same buying club wanted to buy Paddy Roberts, who had played a full season for them, scoring and assisting plenty, for £5m? Bonkers.

When you add the likes of Bony to the equation it makes it even more bonkers??

I'll be pleasantly surprised if we pull this one off.

This had all the markings of a loan until his contract was up.

That's an informative list JC; thanks for compiling it.

It certainly puts the current state of play nicely in perspective and, as you say, there are many still left to go.

For my money, from the list of those yet waiting for the exit door to open, it's just a great shame that Mangala wasn't suitable for our needs. He was an expensive acquisition but if he had been able to establish himself in the team, we wouldn't now be quite so desperate for a new centre back to stiffen the defence in Vinny's absence...........that's always presupposing if, in Pep's opinion, we are actually desperate for a new centre-back :? :?

Of the still to go list I cannot see Claudio 'international penalty hero' Bravo going and not sure of our homegrown quota if we can afford to let Delph go? In my book Fernando will only go if we get a decent offer. If Ian does go surely we need another striker? And if the Arse aren't going to let us have Sanchez that could prove interesting...

looks like Fernando is off to Galatasary....

Spot witness posted a quote from him "the clubs are negotiating the final things. I am truly aware of that Galatasary is a huge club. It's really exciting me to for them after my spells at Manchester City and Porto"

His mate Maicon told him "...... You'll live it here"
