"Rumours seem a bit thin on the ground today? Even Duran seems to think a “big” European club is now wanting to sign him so expect his rumoured hissy fits to join us will have stopped! Hopefully we have some good news in the pipeline, and it’s a striker, although won’t hold my breath, seems dithering wasn’t just down to Moyes…."

I see Greaves went to Ipswich for £15m... shame.

"What happened to Jacob Greaves, has he gone anywhere yet? I can't see us spending big on another CB. I think that Dinos and Kilman will be our first choice pairing. Dinos suits JL style of play. Assume Aguerd will go and we will struggle to move Zouma on so Greaves would be the perfect squad addition with an eye to the future as well with Zouma taking on the Ogbonna role."

"Not looking too clever at the minute is it? Sorloth at 30m seems risky and short sighted, Toney at 40-50m is relatively risk free but short sighted and Duran at 35-40m is quite risky but forward thinking. We'd get some money back on Duran if it goes tits up due to his age, probably pennies back for the other two if it all goes wrong. I'd still probably go for Duran as its the long term thinking move. Plus it's been a while since we've had a nutter in the squad and that could be entertaining. You'd have to assume that KWP is the RB we're after given his attacking prowess but we've dropped a bollock selling them Downes for a reasonable fee if we didn't have the deal for KWP in place. Now they're pulling our pants down. I can't fathom how we've let that happen. CB looks confused, thought it was gonna be Tomori or Chalobah, both good but fuck knows where that money is coming from. This is second to striker in the desperation level for me. Zouma looks fucking dead. Surprised we're not trying to ship Soucek out, is Loppers trying to convert him back into a footballer via intensive rehabilitation after Moyes tried to flush any talent he had down the toilet? A lot of expectation being put on this Andy Irvine random that turned up after he ran around more than everyone else in the friendlies, gonna be loaned out surely. Not sure what happens if Paqueta comes back and plays like a dickhead, or Alvarez is out longer than expected, it means the dreaded Soucek and JWP midfield doesn't it? Fuck that. Left wing we seem to had a plethora of options, but we've probably pissed them all off now. Can see Zaha coming for cheap. There are worse signings but where are these gems Scarf cսnt? Just when you think we look like we've got our shit together they go and prove us wrong again. Classic West Ham."

"Not sure we will drop 40 on Duran, what about Toney and Jonathan David, among others."

"Oh yeah. haha So it's £100m on Kilman, Duran and Guilherme. 2 first teamers and a potential wonderkid. Probably sounds about right, I suppose."

"I thought the Rice money went on Kudus, Alvarez and JWP."

Good! Well done us. Parasites.

"Looks like Villa won't budge on their valuation of pretty much £40m for Duran. I reckon we end up getting him for what Villa are asking. That would pretty much mean all the Rice money has gone on Kilman, Duran and Guilherme."

Anyone see the news thread yesterday about us pulling out of negotiations with Lille over striker Jonathan David? We apparently did so after the deal being negotiated turned out to include £10m in agent fees. Jesus wept.

"Looks like the Sorloth deal could get messy. It now seems that the £30m valuation is based on the fact that a Saudi club have offered Villareal 32m Euro's so have said to us if we edge above that and go £30m then we have a deal. Like others I am not convinced he is good enough for us to be held over a barrel like that. Plus, who even knows if the Saudi offer is concrete? Just shows you the minefield it is. Eerie - Think what you like. It may be cobblers. But its from a good source. And the news of the Saudi offer to Villareal of 32m Euro's does give more substance to it and the valuation of £30m, Manuel - You make a good point. We do still have a very decent side with the additions of Kilman and the young Brazilian. Even Irving returning adds some depth to midfield. Main frustration for me is striker. How bloody long has this gone on!?!"

"Sydney - Yea I reckon the YT channels might start struggling now, they do nothing but talk bollocks and it's boring now. I watched ''I've been told'' Nick from c&b yesterday, it was painful, how the cսnt can sit there with a straight face is beyond me, he spouts nothing but shit and is full of contradictions. Oh well, never mind eh. Back on topic, we have grinded to a halt, only 3 weeks now to the big KO. We still have a very decent side mind, when you think of the likes of Bowen, Alvarez, Paqueta, Kudus, Antonio (on his day) and Kilman looks good, plus the Brazilian, just hope we sort out the other 3 we need."

"I know we still have plenty of time but is a bit disappointing we haven't done more business, especially for a striker. Rumors have been circulating for months now, then it was going to happened after the Euros/Copa but fuck all still apart from Kilman, the keeper and the Brazilian lad, given up with the YT channels, fuck me i reckon they make up have the rumors themselves! They just spew dross; fuck knows why anyone would become a patron and pay for extra content!!!!"

Understood Man City were owed some of the Douglas Luiz fee via a sell on clause Villa bought a couple of Juve players soon after Suspect the fees on those moves were smoothed out so Villa & Juve were in the same net position but Man City got less. That was after Villa & Chelsea swapped youth players at inflated prices to help their FFP All the sale price in your FFP less 20% of the purchase price. Jobs a good ‘un

"onsideman 11:21 Wed Jul 24 I said relative As in a load of pointless fannying about something that hasn't, and probably won't happen, on the back of someone saying 'I just heard'"

Hang on? Villa didn’t sell Luiz to Arsenal or spurs because they were playing hardball but took less from juventus? Also never knew they didn’t like Sullivan. Sounds like they are making a right name for theirselves and are not very business savvy.

Your 'meltdown' bar is very fucking low

Your 'meltdown' bar is very fucking low

"""Just been told"" With respect, Russ' last just been told was a load of old cobblers, so I'm not sure it's worth the relative meltdown, chaps."

Sorloth's a big bloke but he's not a slow plodder at all. Have you actually seen him play?

Sorloth is a massive no from me

"We can’t be serious about Sorloth surely, fuck a duck, another slow plodder up front."

"Villa supposedly sold luiz to Juventus for less than they could have got from Arsenak and Spuds for 2 reasons. Firstly, the aforementioned chairmen / owners from both clubs were trying to play hard ball getting the fee doen and secondly they would prefer not to sell to Prrm rivals. Dealing with Villa aint esdy so I now think the deal fir Duran wont happen. We missed the window as they are selling another player to deal with FFP that will allow them to get Felix. There’s also the rumour that Villa detest our little Russian dictator wannabe? Plausible rumour I reckon. Sullivan has that about him, the ability to naff off just about anyone he tries to do business with. Underhand, dishonest, market trading techniques and grubby selling of porn not as effective in the real world of business? We need to get one thru the door soon or the dungarees amd knickers will be moistening :-). Less than 4 weeks to go and one “Prem ready” player in. Seems our eyes are bigger than our “financial belly”"
