Well the fact Brentford wanted him is a good reason why he’s not good enough for us - their revenue is 1/4 of us so Frank should be looking to level up and buy far better players than his previous targets eg mid shit like Johnson and Gray.

Quite likely you will be proved correct but at the moment that's who we have and they could both improve in more suited roles.
Frank did have Gray earmarked as a defensive midfielder so it will be interesting to see how that plays out with a full preseason training in that position. He was chucked all over the place last season and dented his confidence a bit.
Johnson not suited as a wide playing winger but could do really well snooping around goal more often as a 2nd striker.
Paratici has only an advisory role at the club. Both the Italian Police and FA are looking to ban him again. I don’t understand why everyone is so desperate to get him back. He decided Gil was better than Kvaratshelkia. Is team also signed off on Veliz.
More of a Richy replacement.
Need to actually sell Richy first
Same for Bissouma
Same for Son…
Have a feeling that’s the real pain point for our window with Levy digging in for better offers and reluctant to get incoming done until they are sold
Where did you read this update?
Not sure where Richy goes now. Looks like Gala are gonna get Osimhen. Maybe still Saudi if Ancelotti will pick him for Brazil from there.
Yeah it’s not obvious
Maybe back to Brazil but will they pay what Levy will ask?
Has to be about 30m he’s holding out for
If that's the case Levy will go in with a final offer of 40 mill take it or leave it on July 14th
They are paying bigger wages in Brazil these days. It’s possible.
This is mild, mateyWe've done sweet fuck all with transfers and this thread is closing on a 1000 pages.
How?
3,000 pages in 2018. 0ver 60,000 posts.
Then the window slammed shut, we'd...signed nobody ..absolutely no-one...Nada....Sweet fuck all, Jesus..... and everyone was like
So we started a January thread.
Airfixx
and the crew told us all to calm down.... we'd make up for it..... be the biggest spenders. So, we all piled over there with renewed vigour and excitement.
2000 pages later. The window slams shut....And we'd signed nobody AGAIN!
Ahhh. Them was the days

But do they pay decent transfer fees?
I was thinking the same, and all that talk from Levy about what he wants the club to achieve, is total nonsense, as we can't even lure any players to the club who would make any difference.
Whilst the lack of signings is frustrating, some of the back room changes are encouraging.
Getting Liverpool's goal keeping coach is a major coup. Vicario and Kinsky have great attributes and ability but often let down by poor judgement. In a market with very few (if any) top keepers available, this seems significant.
And of course, news that the fucktards who ran our medical dept being shown the door is welcome - and indeed demonstrates that Romero was right the call them out.

what is so infuriating is that I think that team only needed one or two signings to turn us from very good to contenders.This is mild, matey

This is gonna make me sad.... I can feel it!
REALLY wanted us to go all out for him, and and hanging onto the idea that if Frank doesn't want him, that's good enough for me...
But I wanted him, so Nerrr!!!
