The world's gone mad.

This transfer window reminds me of Ireland in the midst of the boom!

Somebody burst this bubble quick!

@SkySports_Keith: Sky Sources: We understand the fee agreed between Palace and Sunderland for striker Connor Wickham is £9m including add-ons.

It's crazy but unlike Ireland, the money is real.

Good bit of business by Sunderland.

They managed to get him to sign that new contract last season ensuring they would get such a fee for him.

Moneymaker

So Pardew signed a big lad so they can lump the ball up to him.

Better then lumping the ball up to 5'7 Ayoze Perez I guess.

eh i dunno

39 goals in 179 games wickham has and he's worth 10m. Madness.

CSF

Young English lad in being massively overpriced shocker.

Sunderland paid Ipswich £8million or so for him 4 years ago.

AidySevenfold

I can remember Wickham scoring against Chelsea, Arsenal and Finn Harps. One for the big games! :P

Anyone else think John Stones, and in fact the whole Everton defence are very overrated?

Well individually, Stones, Jags, Baines and Coleman are excellent players. Moyes was able to turn them into an effective defence (pre-Stones), Martinez not so much.

Villa set to announce Jordan Veretout from Nantes €10m, Adebayor Loan and Gestede Balckburn £6m today.
Plenty of darts being thrown this off season but will any hit the target?

Chain reaction could see Glenn Murray move to Bournemouth.

Yeah, I see it going well. Villa will have gone from relying on 2 players to having lots of good players who might not be as good as those 2 that left, but who knows. Neither was great when they joined first.

Agent Coulson

Are City still paying part of Adebayor's wages?

Think that was only until his contract at City would have been up which no doubt it will be by now when it's spurs turn to do so (at least there was talk of them paying part of his wages) whilst Villa take him on loan.

Isn't he supposed to be (and I'll paraphrase here) utter ****e? I honestly cannot remember him doing a single thing and I'd seen Sunderland play a few times last season.

But Augsburg are just milking Chelsea. They're a small club that deal in €2 and €3 million transfers in and out. Fair play to them taking advantage alright.

I can't remember them producing a player like this before though. He's going to be a great player in year to come so with the money that's been thrown around this summer it's good to see them get paid well for him.

It's not taking advantage when the player is actually worth that. If he played for one of the 'big' name teams nobody would bat an eyelid. Augsburg have no reason to accept anything less than a bigger team would accept. Like most BL teams, they are run well and don't need money.

They signed him last summer, so I assume he still has 3/4 years left on his deal.

Dont know if i take this up wrong but the smell of arrogance of this post..... ugh.

Reports in France are suggesting M'Vila will sign for Sunderland. The player himself has been favouriting/liking lots of social media posts in relation to it too. He could just be having a laugh and there nothing in it of course.

Lukker-

Leicester have agreed a fee of £10.5m for Charles Aranguiz. He was linked with Chelsea and Arsenal at the start of the transfer window so it looks like they might have pulled off a bit of a coup. I've only seen him play in the Copa but he looked like a very solid CM, perfect replacement for Cambiasso.
