    I don't think a thread is warranted for this. In the past we've just put these transfers in the general chat thread.

    I'd have the oppisite view.
    There's been threads here for more trivial subjects, so think it'll be clear to have all player transfers in an individual thread, easier to see.

    Lots of chatter about Abraham to Wolves which may have a big impact on Jimenez.

    Agreed, be a weird one. Does Jiminez normally play up top on his own?

    Or would they play Abraham with him? Arguably their player of the season so far

    My guess is Abraham is backup or played out wide. If they sign him

    I'd love to see Abraham go to the likes of Watford, Brighton or Palace. From a fpl perspective, he'd be a good option at any of those clubs, at Wolves he'd likely be sharing game time so not much use.

    He’s not leaving villa to sit on the bench especially when he’s supposedly on big goal/win bonus on top of his salary at villa.

    Well there's no way Jimenez will be dropped on current form so it's much ado about nothing for now

    £19m apparently.

    Wonder what that would mean for Wilson/King?

    Wilson likely to move for me. Wasn't there some Chelsea rumours a few weeks back?

    I brought him in (stupidly) with the thought he was going to Palace, he'll surely start right?

    They'll all get games I'd imagine. Is he really better than the two of them? As mentioned Wilson may no longer be there come February.

    Surely Wilson on the move so? I would've thought they had one of the better attacking options in the league so to spend that sort of cash must mean someone's leaving?

    Jason Puncheon joins Huddersfield.

    4.2m midfielder.

    Could be the greatest midfield enabler since Georgie Boyd.

    The thing about Puncheon is that I think all the value is in midfield so he’s taking a space.

    Thats my problem with him. Its also why I moved early on solanke to faciltate 352.

    Solanke is relying on someone to leave to see lots of minutes there. Can’t see King or Wilson being displaced.

    I'm not sure that's true any more. Rashford/Arnie/Wilson/Jimenez/Mitrovic - there's plenty of competing value up front

    I don't get this Abraham to Wolves on loan deal that's circulating, if he starts up top with Jimenez, who drops out? Or will he be in the back up role, but surely he would rather stay on playing and scoring goals for villa

    He obviously backs his own ability and believes he can get the striker spot . Top half of premiership team vs championship team. No contest .
    I think he might only be on loan at Villa too
    It’s bad news for FF anyway (or good if you don’t have Jimenez like me even though he had been under consideration in WC )

    I'd be amazed if he can dislodge Jimenez though, he's looked so good when i've watched wolves.
    Yeah he's on loan there, maybe they're eying him up on a permanent as I think Jimenez's agreed fee is somewhere in the region of 30m.

    Yep might lead to me upgrading him to Rashford if the deal goes through

    When they signed him he was a record for the Portuguese league so they obviously liked him. Guessing the Wolves loan was them putting him in the shop window.

    Seems almost certain. Maybe Benfica have had others show interest so Mendes has let them know they need to look at other options.
