Summer 26 Transfer Rumours

Sheffield Wednesday?

 

I like your thinking but by city

 

There is no doubt that Metcalfe is the more value commodity at the moment because of his youth and talent. Which would be more value to us at this time on the field is open to interpretation

 

Link to the article.

Charlton play similar to us so the poster reckons he'd fit well. Also has a good cross field ball.

I do like that shirt.

 

People talk down the SPL a lot in terms of standard but for a league one/championship player there's the possibility of European football and then one good season could see another good move. It's not really possible to compete with that.

 

Could be a season long loan to be fair

 

Judging by the gossip it sounds like Macauley what’s his name and the Scottish keeper

 

At least Odin is wearing the right shirt, almost...

And could be handy for us, he could simply slay a few of the opposition to make some spaces for our lad to run into....

 

Just give up mate, best for yourself not to dig any further. That or change your password as you’ve been hacked…

Your username sounds Dutch, maybe ‘for a better player’ means something else in Dutch you tell me.

 

I thought our defence did remarkably well last season to say I don't think any of them are elite at this level.

 

From local reportd it looks like Shef Weds are no longer after Bailey, confirmed they were interested but have moved on to other targets.
Donny must be asking a fair bit for him.

 

Pretty pleased that the two rumours I posted were correct. Well, i wasn't pleased Metcalfe was.... but you get what I mean

 

Feels like they are looking for a statement signing but being careful with their money (or being priced out)

I wonder if Bailey at Donny will move late in the window when his price drops a bit? Can't be easy to focus if the reports of all these clubs wanting him are true. His agent will be in his ear.

 

At some stage they will have to make a decision . A player “ touted” around is , as proven time after time, an unsettled player . Notice they haven’t said he’s not for sale ? . Every player has a price, the market “ finds” it.

 

Baldwin was part of a defence that did pretty well
It was our attacking that was an issue
Peterborough at home showed that, 30+ attempts on goal and only scored 2 and we hardly laid a glove on Bolton in the 2 playoff games.
Improve in this department and keep it equally as tight at the back and we will be ok
If we can also bring in a defender or 2 that improves that side as well, great.
Phillips and Beesley look like we are going to improve the scoring rate
What’s not to like

 

It will surely have an unsettling effect on him
I don’t see him as a championship player to be honest
Top league one yes, so that limits his suitors
Especially if the figure being quoted is correct

 

I suppose like with every player does he want to move to a new club if he does then that can affect the asking price, if he isn't asking to move then Donny can ask for whatever they want hoping someone is daft enough to pay over the odds.

 

Kamil Conteh mentioned a little on social media over the weekend, cant see where it's from though. We were linked to him a few years ago when he left Grimsby. He was one of the two lads who Bristol Rovers rejected bids for the other week along with Hutchinson, it's come out since that Plymouth were the team who bid for Conteh at the time.
