    Maybe it's just me but I think Trippier is a better full back than Walker anyway.

    Wonder with all that net spend by all the clubs this season what kind of product we'll get in the EPL next season.

    Based on what? 5 games at the end of last season and a season three years ago with burnley? Trippier isnt a bad replacement given the lack of quality full backs and the prices been quoted. But hes not better than walker and thats coming from someone who has watched him since he was 16.

    Nolito's in Spain to complete a move to Sevilla. Sanchez rumours to go wild in the next few days.

    They are basing it on nothing really, even in his five games he didnt look better than Walker

    He was very good for Burnley before that aswell.

    I think full back is the easiest position of all on the field the replace the impact of so I'd say he'll do a good job replacing Walker.

    Right back is the least important player (at least left backs who are left footed have some rarity) in the transfer stakes - or should be.

    He was good for Burnley not spectacular, Im sure Barcelona thought replacing Alves would be easy :pac:
    Playing well for a small club for means means very little Delph was a england starter at Villa for example and like Trippier isnt a starter at the bigger club

    Joe Hart: Goalkeeper to have medical at West Ham before loan deal
    England goalkeeper Joe Hart will have a medical on Monday before completing a season-long loan deal with West Ham.

    Hart has been told he can find another club by Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola after spending last season at Torino.

    It is anticipated City will fund part of Hart's wages and the agreement will include an option for West Ham to buy the 30-year-old.

    Hart's City contract is not set to expire until 2019.

    You just know that him, Nasri, Bony & Mangala are going to be hard to get rid of permanently. Meanwhile Nolito is gone to Sevilla for 9m euros apparently half what City paid last year

    Terrible signing from what I've seen.

    He's just not that good.

    I think whoever Sanchez signs for wins the league by a comfortable margin.

    Danilo was phenomenal at Porto. Madrid just didn't seem to work out. Good signing for any team though.

    Kyle Walker is no Dani Alves and they did a **** job of trying to replace him as the tried to turn Sergi Roberto into a right back rather than just signing a high quality right back.

    Arsenal would prefer to sell him outside the PL. If they don't get an offer I'd say they'd let him leave for free next season.

    There would be mayhem if they sold this summer to United/City/Chelsea.

    Why are Chelsea going for Danilo? Are they going to play the best right back in the league as a left back? Where does Alonso go then?

    Assume they'll just drop moses. Or at least rotate him a bit
