Transfer round-up because why not?

by .

Well good morning to YOU.

We’re reaching peak shit-show in the media.

Agents are hawking their wares to the journos.

ITKs are hedging their bets.

Fans are lifting up all the rocks for clues.

Everyone is a little frustrated that there’s no clear direction as to where we’re heading this summer.

Clues you should care about.

Madrid don’t want to loan Dani out. They want to have a cheap summer and bring him and Odegaard back. Though apparently he still doesn’t feature in Zidane’s plans. The story is Arsenal tried to get a loan deal where we’d pay only 50% of his £60k a week salary. Worrying opening bid if you ask me. This is the danger of loaning young players, you make them good and important, the price goes up.

Torreira is being linked with a move to Italy, today, it’s Roma in a mooted swap deal for Diawara. I have no idea about the player from Roma, but the football scouts on Twitter seem to think he’s a bit of a nothing player, with the main advantage over Torreira being athletic suitability to the league. This clue matters because I think the club will do whatever they can to move him on this summer, he’ll be a swap.

Thomas Partey rumours are still hanging in the air, though it is now reported he wants £200k a week to join. I don’t blame him, he’s 27, a Champions League midfielder and he’d be moving to Arsenal who are coming out of a mess. That would mean we either pass on him or we move on a player with an equal salary.

Heeeeello Alex Lacazette. The Frenchman is a big name whatever you think of him and he can be relied on for goals. Napoli are holding fast on Milik and reports are that Juve might focus their attention on someone they can get for a better price and maybe even a swap deal. Lacazette earns about £180k a week, he’s a big earner, that might be the key to other big names. Swap deals mooted are Gonzalo Higuain, Douglas Costa, or Cristian Romero.

Cal Chambers is attracting interest from Scotty Parker’s newly-promoted Fulham. The player was relegated there in the past, but he knows the place and he’s well-liked there. Could be a good recuperation loan move, or a decent £12m deal for Arsenal in the climate. We need to move out centre-backs if we want to bring them in. He’s young, he was looking good before the break, but I think we can do better.

Final few…

Aouar for Matteo? Would be nice.

Joelson for a fringe player and a lot of cash? Hmmm? Maybe nice?

Gabriel to choose Napoli over THE MIGHTY GOONERS? No way. Don’t believe it. Finding this Napoli/Lille love-in interesting though.

Right, that’s me done, unleash speculation on my F5!

Think we are going to struggle to offload Torreira to be honest….

Just Another Customer

boring

NJ Gooner

Trophy?

NJ Gooner

Nope. Maybe Europa place if Citee get thrown out again.

Just Another Customer

expectation of signings but no confirmed yet

just want to see it on official site already this drags on too much

Marc

Madrid aren’t interested in keeping Ceballos – they’ve been all over selling him whether to us or in Spain.

We want the player and they want cash in a sale not a loan fee.

It’s all about brinkmanship.

TallestTiz

DC

On the contrary, I think we’ll offload him easily.
He’s suited to Serie A or even La Liga. On minimal wages and he’s hungry to play unlike some bogged-eyed German

Marc

JAC

There’s been about 4 signings total in the PL so far and a couple of those were Chelsea who’d got them done and dusted ages ago.

We had this last summer – everyone throwing a hissy fit that we hadn’t signed every player after 10 minutes.

Chill

Habesha Gooner

I am kind of wary about us offloading a lot of players. I think Holding, AMN and possibly chambers will be easier to offload because they are young, English and on low wages. Other than that it will be tough because no one has bought a significant player yet in Europe bar money bag teams. The most spent may be Napoli for Oshimen and Lille for Johnathan David. Mid table teams aren’t forking out money and everyone is playing the waiting game.

Sid

Ceballos will be the new Ozil once we sign him and has a nice contract, stay away

Marc

Habesha

Technically the season isn’t over yet.

Just Another Customer

the uncertainty of the transfer window is what gets me fidgeting

so many things to fix so many things to do but nothing to show for so far

Gentlebris

I have not found any fresh news about the 35 years old tackler.

Maybe it was just bullshit.

It must be or the guys running the club are not done with their dumb jump.

Habesha Gooner

Marc
Yeah But only 16 teams are left and It wouldn’t have stopped the transfer merry go round in recent years. I think teams have really felt the Covid effect.

Sid

The fact that Ceballos isnt in Zizous plans is a red flag

Habesha Gooner

Mental Bris
What do you make of this?

Gentlebris

HG,

You are so poor in ideas you had to follow Marc’s lead?

Can’t you be creative and find your own way to insult me?

Hope you have got thick skin like Marc anyway, cos I would come get you if you don’t stop right there.

Nelson

Let’s enjoy the Neymar show!

Habesha Gooner

Okay Be Gentle with me. I am Under 35.

Gentlebris

And that was a 22.5 year old in that stupid photo you pulled, not 16.

Nelson

Neymar!!! miss open net!!!

Champagne Charlie

Neymar showing his age

MidwestGun

That might have been the worst miss I have ever seen. It’s up there.

Habesha Gooner

Neymar could have been someone to put alongside the greatest footballers. But now he will end his career as another player who didn’t fulfill his potential.

Champagne Charlie

Middy

World class miss you might say..

Marc

Habesha

Careful he likes them young – his defence is always the same “But your Honour I know he was wearing school uniform but I thought that just meant he was 24”

MidwestGun

CC-
Yep.. He was trying to be too casual about it.. like it was already done. Almost no pressure from behind as well. . Crazy bad. And I’m not a Neymar hater.

Gentlebris

Methinks we should be seen camping at Thiago’s door, taming his lawn and washing his cars instead of pursuing a ’27 year old’ on whose face there is no African mid twenty glow and in whose services no serious side is interested.

And I also heard fat Frank is getting impatient with Kante’s injuries, so why don’t we ask them what they wanna do about it.

Marc

I should point out I wasn’t the first to use “Mentalbris” can’t remember who came up with it.

But unlike Dissenter with his VAT thing I don’t take credit for stuff I didn’t do.

Nelson

PSG GK is on form!

Habesha Gooner

Marc
yeah. I am staying away.

Anyway Atalanta are beautiful to watch and have been all season.

Champagne Charlie

“instead of pursuing a ’27 year old’ on whose face there is no African mid twenty glow“

Le Grove teaches me things I never learned in science class, got to love it.

Marko

Atalanta as an Italian team who just love to attack are a breath of fresh air. Great job all round on that club these last few years

Habesha Gooner

The worst kinds of racists I hate are those who are racist to people that look like them. Samuel L Jackson in Jango unchained levels of racists.

Jamie

Neymar the age cheat is only 17. He’ll learn to put those chances away when he improves his finishing.

Nelson

Miss again. Neymar is unlucky today.

Just Another Customer

his decision making is not his forte everyone can see that based on his career trajectory alone

Gentlebris

‘I should point out I wasn’t the first to use “Mentalbris” can’t remember who came up with it.’

Mental Bris came up during one of the numerous sessions I had slapping you around.

The dude thought it was like Mike Tyson beating Lady Gaga and opined to my credit that it was mental seeing you being beat that way. You took his cheer, twisted it and chant it forever as a defence anytime I was beating your dumb head.

Yes HG, stay away dude. You don’t seem like a lowlife like Marc, so no need getting a session from me.

Jamie

There’s a shitload of forgiveness in that post. Good lad.

MidwestGun

Neymar is in his own head now… Has a touch of the Ozil’s … didn’t know whether to shoot or pass and failed at both. Hope they start scoring though I took the higher scoreline of 3-2 and the over. Misses are killing me.

Nelson

Neymar still has lots of tricks.

Gentlebris

‘Le Grove teaches me things I never learned in science class, got to love it.’

You didn’t attend no science class so wipe up on your sleeve.

Habesha Gooner

Wonderful from Pasalic

Nelson

They score

MidwestGun

Nice! No hesitation there.

Gentlebris

‘The worst kinds of racists I hate are those who are racist to people that look like them. Samuel L Jackson in Jango unchained levels of racists.’

I’m sure you are by no chance implying that I’m racist nor claiming to know how I look.

Champagne Charlie

“You didn’t attend no science class so wipe up on your sleeve.“

What part of the face gives away a persons education?

We’ve established the African glow gives you an accurate age.

Nelson

Neymar has an explosive speed.

Marko

You know when the Bible spoke of turning the other cheek and forgiveness bris it wasn’t talking about your ass cheek and forgiving that priest of yours from way back when. You need to relax trying so hard to antagonize people.

Sid

That Samuel Jackson quote should be directed to the tyrants in Oromia from up North

WengerEagle

PSG are strange. All that money spent and in what’s the biggest game in their season, their CM is Marquinhos, Gueye and Herrera.

No spark or creativity whatsoever.

Up to Neymar alone this one because Sarabia is shite and Icardi is little more than a poacher, elite one tbf.

Marko

Would love a Castagne or Hateboer signed up at RB

MidwestGun

Is there a reason Mbappe isn’t playing or did I miss that?

Champagne Charlie

Mbappe to rescue it. Neymar is their whole attack tonight, average midfield for such clout.

Just Another Customer

PSG playing on counter against mighty Atalanta

this is no Uber Eats farmer’s league

Marc

Yeah whatever mental

WengerEagle

Badly sprained ankle Middy, on the bench but clearly nowhere near match fit.

He’ll come on in the 2nd half though when the desperation amps up.

Gentlebris

‘What part of the face gives away a persons education?’

Easier than age and face…

I only needed to have read your loads of shit here overtime to know you don’t have 0.1 of the level of brilliance needed to stay in a science class beyond a week.

You could repair truck tires properly if you spent years studying it, but no further.

That’s why the only job you have is as a doorman in case you have been wondering.

MidwestGun

Eagle-
Oh ok Thanks.. yep, probably will need him, based on so far.

Habesha Gooner

It’s so hard not to root for atalanta. So little money but a lot of direction. I fancy them to go through.

WengerEagle

Herrera is such a distressingly ordinary player.

Champagne Charlie

“You could repair truck tires properly if you spent years studying it, but no further. That’s why the only job you have is as a doorman in case you have been wondering”

Regular oracle you are, do you read Tarot cards by chance? Talk to the spirit world?

Just Another Customer

all that relentless press seems suicidal as they have been exposed many times already

WengerEagle

Sarabia too, absolutely incredible that he’s lining up alongside a player of Neymars talent.

Wouldn’t stand out for a mid table side.

Just Another Customer

good thing Neymar is a mental midget has been

Habesha Gooner

Neymar has left his shooting boots in Paris.

Jamie

He reads faces. Millions of them.

Gentlebris

‘You know when the Bible spoke of turning the other cheek and forgiveness bris it wasn’t talking about your ass cheek and forgiving that priest of yours from way back when. You need to relax trying so hard to antagonize people.’

Funny seeing a dumb ass like you trying to quote the Christian doctrine.

Turn other cheek is a spiritual expression to be obeyed in the spirit, not seeing a post office rat insulting Christianity and not slap his fat neck.

MidwestGun

My God.. Neymar has to score one of these surely.

Nelson

Mauro Icardi sucks.

Champagne Charlie

Draxler made the wrong choice going to PSG, idk how he’s not made this lineup after Sarrabia’s first half.

Really matters where you choose to play, Wenger was bang on about the importance of that.

Gentlebris

‘He reads faces. Millions of them.’

And could also analysis you too to discover you are weak and lost.

Habesha Gooner

Wenger eagle
I don’t know why Draxler is on the bench while Sarabia is playing.

WengerEagle

Sarabia has to get hooked off at HT, way out of his depth.

M’Bappe 20% fit would offer more.

Jamie

“And could also analysis you too to discover you are weak and lost.”

Please don’t analysis me.

Gentlebris

‘Regular oracle you are, do you read Tarot cards by chance? Talk to the spirit world?’

No such power, and rest easy, I was only pulling your legs with the doorman thing, I know you don’t have a job.

Nelson

PSG’s coach is injured.

Champagne Charlie

Marko is a postman, I’m aspiring to change car tires, I’m dead curious what Jamie is all about according to the book of Bris.

Radio Raheem

If Malinovskyi comes on for 20+ minutes he’ll score.

Shame Golini isn’t starting I’m not convinced by this goalie.

Jamie

“Marko is a postman, I’m aspiring to change car tires, I’m dead curious what Jamie is all about according to the book of Bris.”

According to the book, I’m Nigerian.

Champagne Charlie

“According to the book, I’m Nigerian.“

Ahhh…wagwan

Marc

bris

As we’re all too stupid to know anything about science out of interest how old is the Earth?

MidwestGun

Radio_
Still looking good for your boys though.. seems like fate almost.. 2nd half should be interesting. I just need some more goals. Neymar trying to make a career highlight reel of misses in one match.

Gentlebris

‘I’m dead curious what Jamie is all about according to the book of Bris.’

Well Jamie is a nobody trying to hide behind your skirts to throw jabs at me.

Weak is the summary of it.

Habesha Gooner

If Atalanta go through who can stop city besides Bayern?

Jamie

“Ahhh…wagwan”

😂 exactly.

Gentlebris

‘As we’re all too stupid to know anything about science out of interest how old is the Earth?’

Did you have to step forward to confirm you are indeed dumb?

Captain Tierney

Neymar’s salary is equal to that of the whole Aatalanta team. 🤯

Psg starting with 3 defensive midfielders.

Thilo poor Kehrer at Rb. They need a RB we need to offload Bellerin.

Juan Bernat is average. Always has been.

Why do the idiots at Psg spend all their money on attack. We can potentially have a better defense than Psg next season. 😵

Nelson

This PSG team has no chance against MC nor Bayern unless Kylian Mbappé is available.Their full backs are weak and Icardi can’t hold up play. Neymar has to do it alone.

Just Another Customer

Leipzig to go through so that we can finalise that Partey deal

don’t know how they will unlock that defense unless Simeone consider that it’s just knock out this time

Captain Tierney

Wenger has reportedly rejected Barca.

Captain Tierney

In the last few years or so , Athletico havent lost a Cl knockout tie against a team not containing CR7.

Just Another Customer

heh deep inside I would love dearly beloved Wenger to prove le groveller wrong by taking that job

Champagne Charlie

Verratti, Di Maria, and Mbappe is huge talent to miss in fairness.

That said they’re woefully impotent past their first XI. Unusually so for such a talent hoarding club.

Expect a second half of goals.

Radio Raheem

Mid

Yeah typical Atalanta dodgy at the back. There’ll be more goals I’m sure as I jinx it. Did you bet on 3-2?

Radio Raheem

My boy Malinovskyi
