Summer 2015 Transfer Window General Discussion

klose · 10-08-2015 05:29PM

Some excellent buisness by mid table-bottom half teams this summer in the premier league. Rondon/shaqiri/ayew/payet/wijnaldum/ogbonna/cabaye all proabably could have gone to "bigger" clubs in england and abroad.

N'zonzi, Bojan, Van Ginkel on loan, Arnautović, Afellay, Muniesa, Butland.

All very good signings and that doesn't include the Swiss midget.

They're ok like. No better than your average PL clubs.

For a club like Stoke they are the difference between relegation and a top half finish, that makes them good signings.

Just posted this in the Everton thread, it's a sad reflection on how the club is being run. They spent more in the summer of 1988 than they have so far this summer :O

Stoke now added to the list

Nice to see the midtable clubs splashing the TV cash, can only improve the quality of the league. Rondon is an excellent signing, he was outstanding at Malaga and was heavily linked to Liverpool earlier in the window.

Shaqiri is an excellent player, he didn't do too badly at Bayern when he played but could just never displace Ribery or Robben which is no easy feat. Strong performances for Basel in the CL and Switzerland at the last world cup, he's a big coup for Stoke.

Joey Barton to West Ham. How does such a woefully ordinary player get so many chances at good clubs?

Strange move. He's ordinary as you say.

West Ham impressed me yesterday. Do they really need Barton

Talib Fiasco · 10-08-2015 06:03PM

Pogba spotted at Heathrow, or else an incredible doppelganger. Twitter is going mental anyway whoever it is.

Its the image of him but wouldn't he of flown into Manchester??

Some craic if hes spotted in the stands at West Brom tonight

whatawaster · 10-08-2015 06:23PM

Lucas replacement

sky88 · 10-08-2015 06:36PM

The lower teams are really improving at the minute can see a lot of shock results to the top sides like arsenal West Ham match yesterday

Bilic doesn't appear to rate Poyet and probably doesn't want Oxford to try and play 30+ games. If Barton does sign I guess that would be the end of them trying to sign Song

Which of those signings were the difference between relegation and a top half finish though?

Maybe he flew from somewhere else but Turin doesn't do direct flights to Manchester (or Heathrow for that matter)

I'm skeptical

Well off the top of my head I'd imagine Diouf's goals were a major help.

All of them combined. That's the point.

The saga of Baba Rahman is over! Augsburg and Chelsea have agreed a fee.

Serious profit for Augsburg. Glad they stood their ground and got a deal which was best for them.

Maybe it was one of Pogba's brothers...

Not sure if your being serious or not but it was clearly Paul because of the hairstyle.

Just looked at the pictures, does it not look like he's in departures?

Maybe he is in-transit to somewhere else?

Balls. Was hoping they would take Danny Rose of our hands

Dirty Dingus McGee · 10-08-2015 10:36PM

Baba Rahman is without doubt the greatest name in the sport right now.

For that alone I hope he does well.

Gavlor · 10-08-2015 10:55PM

Aaron Lennon to Everton on a permanent deal apparently almost done.

Not too inspiring but not too rubbish either. At least it'll mean seeing less of Naismith on the wing.

Wonder what this stoke deal means for Adama Traore? Will they still be signing him? The other teams linked to him were Villa and Liverpool and the guy did travel to England to talk to teams so you would think he is moving somewhere.

Interesting you ask BH, AS in spain are reporting Villa have signed him, no mention of a fee though :pac:

Strongly linked to Praet at Anderlecht again too, after they said they would accept less for him (7m I believe).

Only a few days ago Sherwood said he would now be Primarily be looking at the possibility of bringing in English based players

Valbuena back to France, Lyon.
Doumbia back to Moscow

Corholio · 11-08-2015 03:41PM

Bristol City have bid £10m for Dwight Gayle. Billionaire owners are everywhere these days.

Subcomandante Marcos · 11-08-2015 04:05PM

Milan have confirmed they signed Alessio Romagnoli Roma.

€25mill + bonuses, big money for a 20 year old and they gave him Nestas old number, no pressure kid!
