Like a new signing!
Just seen Brighton are close to getting Ferdi Kadıoğlu. Now that would be a good transfer to hijack!
Sorts cover out for both LB and RB!
Think Fenerbache even want Reguilon to replace him . . .
Definitely spending like Bournemouth were before we signed Solanke.
Hm, that’s close to £120m on attacking midfielders/wingers alone this window, with him, Minteh, Gruda, Wieffer, and Osman.
I think the rumours of Adingra leaving may indeed be very real. Either that or they’ve got a Ferguson deal lined up that we don’t know about. Their net spend is up to the £100m+ range this window.
Brighton are spending heftily, they're pretty stacked for forwards and add in the fact that Adingra's only got 2 years left on his deal with no noise of him extending. All logic would indicate that he's off somewhere. There's no real evidence that that's the case... but it all just fits too well.
25 years, 1 league cup
And people still defend these leeches in control of our beloved club
We’re richer than you could ever imagine and there are still people saying ‘we’ll never pay 50 million up front for a player, we don’t have that money’
Get your heads out your arses and look at the facts that have been laid on a plate for you for a quarter of a century

Yes it’s boring but it’s correct mate
The only constant over the last 25 years where we’ve won sweet fuck all are the owners, and I don’t get how so many of us don’t understand that
I don't deny we've improved under them, I've seen us go from mid table irrelevance to being top 4 botherers on a semi regular basis in the league. As much as they deserve some credit, I reserve the majority of it for the likes of Jol, Harry and Poch all of whom tried their best to make water out of wine at times and made it work.
1000% agree with this. And in my opinion a symptom of being fed a tale and accepting it. Apparently a club legend who never showed up when it mattered and even worse watched Son step up be the man during the CL run with Moura giving me the best Spurs night of my life only for the legend who hadn't played in months to start the most important game for us in my lifetime but i digress.
Agreed but the rest weren't feted and told their teammates were the reason they didn't win.
Fair.
Agreed
They've done well with the stadium which is generating great revenue which isn't being invested as we want. They've also done well to play by the rules in terms of FFP or PSR or whatever it's called now but they've done so only because it gives them an excuse imo. Lewis didn't find it too difficult to find loopholes when it came to tax and I'm sure the same applies to Levy so the rule abiding when it comes to the clubs rings hollow imo.
Agreed fully, and again, the fact we're in this position where serious money can be invested into the team is credit to them (I remember Dean Richards rip being our record signing for £8M) but the fact it doesn't get done is also a fault of theirs in my opinion.
This a fantastic post mate in its entirety and I fully get where you're coming from. At the end of the day we all want the same which is for us to be successful which means trophies and titles one day.
The division is mainly, in good spirits, down to how people perceive we can get there and I have to add, with the perception that standards have been lowered since our new manager has been in situ which I agree with and hopefully I have egg on my face when the season ends but I won't be treating another season like last season as a success.
More than anything I can't believe Woolwich have been able to outdo us like this in the space of 2 seasons and I realistically have to spend a 3rd season in a row supporting us and City.
Pretty sure their new manager plays 5-2-3 with WBs.
In the winger/AM/Forward positions they already have:
Joao Pedro
Ferguson
Welbeck
March
Minteh
Mitoma
Gruda
Adingra
Enciso
Osman
Sarmiento
Mazilu
Cozier-Duberry
I wonder if the recruitment team are hold in the tactical board upside down.
ENIC/levy thread this belongs in mate.
This here’s the transfer thread.
You’re welcome
Anyone got a link to this without the need to subscribe?
So what are you going to do about it?
Whine and say he’s right.
At this point he definitely seems like a nice, economical way to add to the attack. It's wonderful that he would be able to contribute across the front line- we always can use more quality depth anywhere.
Depth charts:
LB: Udogie, Spence, VDV, Davies, Gray (?)
CB: Romero, VDV, Dragusin, Davies, Gray
RB: Porro, Spence, Gray, Dragusin (?)
I think we have plenty enough to cover our games this season. All of our players should look forward to at least 15+ starts and 25-30+ appearances- the top XI should be able to look forward to 30-40 starts and 10-20 sub appearances- for me, better to have a slightly shorter rotation. In a crisis can create a galvanizing 'siege mentality' moment which is better imo than a long, disinterested bench where players rot away from lack of senior playing time.
Rated this as spam, you may as well copy and paste your other posts every day in here it adds nothing to the thread...we get it but it's so boring
He’s an attacking wide midfielder -
yes
They've already spent around 120m and that's not including Kadioglu (35m) about to join. This will make it 200m so they're def selling someone.
Rutter is not a wide forward but a CF. Maybe they regret not selling Evan Ferguson for £100m 2 seasons ago
But B & H sure don't want to run out of WF's though...coz they've bought 5 WFs this TW:
Ibrahim Osma, Amario Cozier-Duberry, Yankuba Minteh, Brajan Gruda, and Adrian Mazilu.
