Summer Transfer Window Thread 2015

[Rich]

Enrique hasn't gone yet, I have seen some comments that his move to WBA is IN JEOPARDY 

[Hobo]

Probably because they're trying to convince Jose he can't play football while on an Uber Board.

[Colly]

Sky Sports keep on playing this clip of Guillem Balague saying that Real and De Gea had an agreement in place for the deal for the past two months, is that not tapping up?

That would depend on whether 'tapping up' existed as a concept outside of the minds of English football journalists, and indeed had any greater legal basis than an enfeebled accusation used only by selling clubs as a means to create bad press for (and therefore place pressure on) buying clubs.

Luckily it doesn't, because footballers can talk to other potential employers (whether via agents or whatever), just as employees in almost any other industry do. Very few transfer bids are made without the buying club already knowing that the player is at least theoretically interested first. The idea that only a few Big Evil Clubs engage in this activity in nonsense.

Do you type that from memory or just c&p each transfer window?

[stokeriño]

Memory, since you ask.  

One day there will be a transfer window when the subject doesn't come up...

[Baddar]

A helicopter arrived at Leicester and SSN reported it was Swansea's Nathan Dyer, to complete a loan move in time. Yet their ticker says it's Watford winger Lloyd Dyer. Which is it?!

Kieron Dyer

Danny Dyer

Berahino is such a little bitch

[Gazz]

Does he think sitting out six months plus of his career is going to help him?

[Gorka]

James Morrison is taping his fists as we speak.

[GoGo Yubari]

I guess if West Brom can be transparent in an obnoxious, grandstanding way so can Berahino. I can't wait for this to be over one way or another. This is insufferable.

West Brom shouldn't have to sell the player if they don't want to. If Spurs aren't meeting the valuation then he'll just have to put up with it. Get your head down and play well. End of the day he's the one with the most to lose, its his career. 

 

[Hobo]

Why would Berahino want to play Jeremy Peace in the first place?

@gogo yubari @jimmy @lineker you guys follow Cartilage Free Captain? It's a Spurs news/fansite which is affiliated with where I write. They've been knocking it out of the park with their deadline day coverage today. http://cartilagefreecaptain.sbnation.com/

Some Arsenal fans are trying to organise a protest tonight to get Wenger sacked because we haven't signed anybody.

What an absolute circus.

[Dan]

Players do seem desperate to get away from West Brom on Deadline day.

Yep followed Cartilage for years now.

Berahino is such a little bitch

It's the Aidy Ward effect.

In 2013, the Daily Express reported that Peace "runs the club with a rod of iron. Any manager has to accept the title of ‘head coach’ and be prepared to slot into the way Peace does things."
