Transfer targets (49 Viewers)

[CCFCSteve]

At least Osti attacked the ball in the opposition box, our CBs last season might as well have saved their breath and stayed home every time we got a corner.

Very dangerous from set pieces both in terms of goal threat and to players on both sides

Where during that interview does he sound “really annoyed” with king?

He doesn't, that's the point! Robins you can tell from this interview and his interview yesterday is excited and we are shopping in a better market for players.

In the past Robins has said stuff like "I'm going to have to be Delboy" and "we need people but we need to see what we can do, we need to move people out" etc etc

So these quotes represent a significant, positive shift for us as a club.

It is interesting to have confirmation that King has already raised the wage ceiling

King has raised the wage ceiling, worked around the clock on transfers, and is very supportive in terms of bringing better players to the club …. The relationship does seem pretty broken

Irreparable in fact

Irony !

No, sarcasm!

Loads. Few to the CT, few to twitter, Ed Byrne explaining irony...

Robins said he’s getting 10 more in but we aren’t sure what he means

Yeah but that was last night, what was clear then is confused now.

 

[SkyblueDad]

No he don’t stop making things up.

 

[Martin180]

No he don’t stop making things up.

Sorry I thought that was how it works

No, nothing new today.

 

[wingy]

Yet!

Pints?

 

[Gint11]

Who’s next in guys?

kitching?
Willock?
Young lad at Man U?
McNally?
BNC?

I bet it’s none of the above

Probably, I’d say most of our signings we haven’t predicted have we apart from the last couple.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Hopefully at least one more by the end of the week you’d think?

I expect two more to be fair

I think Ostigard would be the perfect long-term Fadz replacement. Only defender City have had in the past few years who has replicated Fadz style, not afraid to put his head in, goes for every ball etc.

Yes his passings not great but that’s what the other two centre backs are for.

I think Kipre would be better.

McNally fits the bill

And considerably more attainable

I don’t think we have signed anybody this window that hadn’t already been rumoured. Possibly a sign that we are after better players.

Sakamoto?

 

[Deity]

Sakamoto?

Reported in the Belgian press, Boddy confirmed our interest on BBC CWR, and a fan took a photo of him with the squad flying to Portugal …. So I wouldn’t say that was a surprise !

Happened quickly though. The journey from rumour to "there's a Japanese bloke with the squad" was as swift as his dribbling.

Agreed but in Lg1 we were signing foreign players with no Leaks and frankly we hadn’t heard of

I wish I hadn’t heard of Kasteneer

 

[SkyblueDad]

I agree with Kipre was the best CB I seen last season against what was an inform Gyokeres with out grappling him like an all in wrestler

 

[Manchester_sky_blue]

I wish I hadn’t heard of Kasteneer

Oh I dunno. He was at least entertainingly crap rather than just dull

 

[Great_Expectations]

That would be nowhere near enough

Not sure I said it was tbf.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Interested to see if we shop abroad some more

 

[CovLad94]

Interested to see if we shop abroad some more

Robins did mention there still looking in thr international market so can see 1 or 2 being from abroad

 

[Finham]

I hope so. 2 more in the Sakamoto mould, i.e. we've never heard of them but class, 1m+
