I see Sean Longstaff going to Leeds, another player we were linked with?

John McGinn of Aston Villa is the latest player being linked with us.

Bournemouth goalkeeper Mark Travers now being linked.

Andrew, just hope it’s all above board. 🤞🤞

Tyler Onyango's contract ended 8 days ago and he's still listed on the official site.

Staying? Going? Thoughts.

Onyango is a lower league player, Phil.

Good luck to him but he's not going to make it at the top

Sky are reporting that we are interested in John McGinn.

Rob

McGinn is a weird link. Regular for Villa, aged 30 can't imagine they'd make a huge profit on selling him.

BBC say they don't want to sell but we are offering a bid. Good player.

McGinn is presumably a made up link.

I've been disappointed when I've see McGinn. If we went for a 30-year-old I'd prefer Jack Grealish from Man City.

The Harrison rumour is on social media again. I hope it doesn't happen.

The Athletic and the BBC haven't made up the link for McGinn.

The last, fat little Scot we had was McGeady, so it's a no for me.

McGinn is okay but no thanks.

Colin

John Collins was another one of similar stature. He didn't work out too well

Wonder when we are going to have enough green shield stamps for all these players we are linked with. It appears that TFG have ver short arms but very deep pockets

Whatever the case, it is starting to look like Everton are in the hunt for a central midfielder with a bit of experience - because the rumours have gone from O'Riley to Gallagher to McGinn. We may soon shift attention to the most likely of all (due to being surplus to requirements) - Dewsbury-Hall.

It is a link and rumour, but I'm not sure what the "link" between McGeady and McGinn is Colin.

"Mc" and born in Scotland, although McGeady played for Ireland.

But very different players in different positions.

McGinn has been very effective for Villa and a leader on the pitch.

I doubt there will be much in this, but I wouldn't turn my nose up.

Robert@14 or Josh Brownhill?

Dewsbury-Hall has totally different profile to mcginn, Gallagher

‘ Wonder when we are going to have enough green shield stamps for all these players we are linked with. It appears that TFG have ver short arms but very deep pockets’


We’re just about to buy a French under 21 international for 28m

But don’t let an uneducated rant get in the way of facts

Is it done yet Ryan…..er no but when it is I will be glad he’s one of ours. Uneducated? Rant? Get a grip lad.

McGinn is a cracking player. It’s a yes from me!

It’ll be done after his medical which started today Sean

Club is allegedly in talks with Man City about McAtee.
No chance,he’s going to the Bundesliga for Champions League football.
Next piece of pie in the sky please!!

I’ve never understood the hype on McGinn. He’s not for me and I would be happy for this to pass us by

Chelsea are the team to target for purchases.

Chilwell would improve our starting XI.

Chilwell lost 100 games through injury in 4 years, apparently earns £200k a week and is 29 in December.

Absolutely no chance we will sign him.

Sean (various), I agree with you.

25-20 years ago £30M bought you top top players - nowadays it doesn't.

Of course players costing less than that can come good and more (just as players costing way more can turn out to be flops), but purely on account of Dumb and Dumber's mismanagement, Green Shield Stamps are a commodity still very much cherished in our boardroom cos we're still financial also-rans at best, if we get lucky, again.

Ryan - Palace signed him on loan, and hes surplus to requirements.

I wouldn't dismiss it. There's far better players than Ben Chilwell have gone to lesser clubs.

Dugary Birmingham
Boksic Boro
Youri Djorkaeff Bolton
Etc

Stockport County in talks with Everton for Tyler Onyango and Roman Dixon

According to the Bobble

*Speculation the players are already in pre season training with Stockport

About their level I would say

Maupay ten million, the world has gone fucking mad....

Dale,

I've just read that Andy Hunter says it was more like £3.4M, and he might be closer to the truth as he writes for The Guardian.

Still, of all our departees, he's the only one we're getting any kind of money for.

Overpriced at that Michael....

Out of all the players named by Michael if I could only pick 1 it would be Tom Fellows.

Stu # 22……in that case why doesn’t McAtee just stay at Man City who have qualified for champions league football, and why is Thierno Barry on the verge of joining us, as he could have stayed at Villarreal who have also qualified for champions league football.

Rob@34
I guess the issue is playing time.Guardiola doesn’t seem to rate him too highly whereas he could be a regular starter at one of the Bundesliga clubs.
As for Barry,my understanding was that he wanted to prove himself in the Premier League,maybe that was the trigger?

Another name has appeared this morning. DF midfielder from M'boro. Hayden Hackney is his name. Are the TFG ordering a Taxi for the Moyesiah ?

Been reading on some website that Barry has said his goodbyes to Villareal on his Instagram and one of the comments in response was that he'll love it at Fulham! Good to have a sense of humour.

I think the link with McGinn was based on Allen Stubbs recommendation to Moyes a couple of years ago.

Mcginn looked a real player but did fade a bit towards the end of the season and of course he is competing with Onana for his place.

I would be shocked if that rumour has any legs.

In fact I think we have been associated with a record number of players this window which shows the level of click / bait these days.

United are looking at Holgate.

Not on my radar but just read Arsenal sign Norgaard from Brentford. Good on him and both clubs.

However, it seems he's “emotional” because next season he will stand and hear the Champions League Anthem!!!
Unbelievable!

Henderson leaving Ajax.

We wouldn't… would we??

John, yes he was one that was touted (allegedly) to be ideal for us on a 'free' needless to say, he has gone elsewhere. Interesting to see if he plays a part with Arsenal, or becomes a bench warmer/squad filler?

His hearing of the Champion's League Anthem, may be from the bench or the stands!

Christian Norgaard has left Brentford for Arsenal.

Should they lose Mbuemo and Wissa, which is very likely, then I can see Brentford plummeting down the Premier League straight into the Championship.

The biggest blow for them was Thomas Frank leaving for Spuds, and him being replaced by a complete novice in Keith Andrews.

I've been saying that since the news broke, Rob.

Unlike Brighton, who themselves have hit their ceiling, Brentford was built around Frank. And he has taken 4 of his coaching staff with him.

Certainly going to be interesting to see how they adapt with the loss of Frank and key players.

Derek,

With a midfield of Rice, Odegaard and Zubamendi, I don't think he'll see too many starts.

Evan Ferguson to a TFG-controlled football club, apparently.

On loan, Ryan?

It's Roma isn't it Ryan?

Roma apparently want him on loan

BTW - I was joking about Holgate, but you knew that.

Another released without notice is I suspect Onyango.

Rob @ 42, remember the old TV Ad, take Andrews for Inner Cleanliness!

Also recommended for a hangover, which Brentford may have, losing Thomas Frank and most of their best players.

£60M Spurs have bid for Gibbs-White.

Decent player but a hell of a lot of money.

He cost £45M, Liam, and has improved a lot.

Forest will struggle next season if they don't spend their incoming money for him and Elanga well.

He's a good player, Andrew.

Just shows the market is insane, especially for English players. It'll be a long while (if ever) before we are paying those type of fees.

Spurs will be overloaded with attacking players. They most likely will be selling or loaning some.

I would not mind Richarlison on loan.

You gotta pay for quality.

Forest will replace both of them.

They have a great recuruitment team.

Mark Travers to Everton: £5M.

Gibbs-White has a release clause of £60M.

Kudus and Gibbs-White — £115M for the pair.

If they'd only spend another 10p on the defence and keeper.

Everton are so far behind.

Some of our fans get a nosebleed if we have more than one centre-forward.

I am so pleased we have David Moyes at the helm with regards to transfers; I expect him to be very shrewd in the way he spends what we have.

Throwing £50M+ around on players does not always work; Man Utd as a prime example.

I would like to think we have players in mind who fit the way we want to play. They don't always have to be mega expensive to be very effective. The 1985 team we had is a prime example.

Ed, I think Son and Richarlison will both move on now.

Be interesting to see how they accommodate Gibbs-White and Maddison though.

Paddy Boyland says Moyes is after Mark Travers of Bournemouth as his new backup keeper.

Boyland has been uncommonly accurate -- he called out Barry as a possible target months ago -- so I'd take this one seriously.

And Gazzetta Dello Sport, more reliable than most, has joined the parade of media reporting our pursuit of Douglas Luiz.

Mike,

I agree, Paddy Boyland has always been accurate and early. Despite the scepticism of "Darren/Dave/Colin".

Forest are considering legal action against Spurs as they think Spurs have made an illegal approach for Gibbs-White without Forests permission. For now the deal is off and Forest have suspended all communication with Spurs.

Good on Forest!

If I where spurs I'd tell forest the deal is off permanently. Then forest have one very unhappy player.

Wesley Franca still being linked.
