Seems he has wanted to go for a while. Unless he moves somewhere lower than us and gets first team football it's an odd move if orchestrated by himself.

Read a couple of tweets from Mr Fulham earlier that we were linked with Ludovic Silvestre (Rizespor) and also Taulant Xhaka (sp?)(Basel).

Stoke City striker Cameron Jerome linked with Fulham move
By Kyle Jones ⋅ May 18, 2014
Stoke City striker Cameron Jerome is at the top of recently relegated Fulham's summer transfer targets according to the Sun on Sunday.
Jerome, who spent the season at Crystal Palace is targeted by the championship new boys as they prepare for life in the second division since 2000. The 27 year old was a regular in the improved Palace side under Tony Pulis and can only see his future is away from Stoke.
This could be a replacement for Konstantinos Mitroglou, the 26 year old Greek international who arrived at Craven Cottage for 12 million pounds and never made the impact that sacked René Meulensteen hoped for.

I was getting the impression in the last few games that he was beginning to come into his own within the team and PL. I'm in agreement that it would be a shame to see him go. I think he could become at least a good/versatile squad defender for us, if not a starter in the Championship.
I'm also hopeful that we can convince Heitinga to stay with us. Closest approximation we've had to Hughes role in the defense.

Fulham have targeted Ajax central defender Niklas Moisander to help them back into the Premier League.
The 28-year-old Finland international has been identified by Felix Magath and his staff as the man to shore up the Cottagers defence next season after helping Ajax to the Dutch title. Moisander joined Ajax for £2.5million in July 2012 after four seasons with AZ Alkmaar but could be available again as his club are looking to bring through a younger central defender in Stefano Denswil. He signed a three-year deal on his arrival in Amsterdam and, with only one year left on his contract, is in a strong position to dictate his next destination. Whether he would opt to play in the Championship with Fulham next season remains to be seen or whether he would prove to be an astute capture at under 6ft tall. Moisander is good friends with Finnish teammate Tim Sparv - whose father scouts for Fulham in Europe. The central defender started in Finland's 2-2 friendly international draw with the Czech Republic on Wednesday night in Helsinki but came off at half-time.

Moisander is a pretty good CB, especially his build up play. He would deffo be a voor signing for us. The only problem is his height and the fact that he plays Champions League football.

Fulham scout link boosts Finnish swoop chances
Fulham have targeted Ajax central defender Niklas Moisander to help them back into the Premier League.
The 28-year-old Finland international has been identified by Felix Magath and his staff as the man to shore up the Cottagers defence next season after helping Ajax to the Dutch title. Moisander joined Ajax for £2.5million in July 2012 after four seasons with AZ Alkmaar but could be available again as his club are looking to bring through a younger central defender in Stefano Denswil. He signed a three-year deal on his arrival in Amsterdam and, with only one year left on his contract, is in a strong position to dictate his next destination. Whether he would opt to play in the Championship with Fulham next season remains to be seen or whether he would prove to be an astute capture at under 6ft tall. Moisander is good friends with Finnish teammate Tim Sparv - whose father scouts for Fulham in Europe. The central defender started in Finland's 2-2 friendly international draw with the Czech Republic on Wednesday night in Helsinki but came off at half-time.
I know nothing about Niklas Moisander. If Felix is bringing him in then where does that leave Brede and Burn?
I think the real question is, where does this leave Brede'

Many players dropped a division when we were in the Championship last time, purely due to wages, but also the possibility of us becominh a big club. Maybe the temptation is there again, well, the money anyway..

Tall centre backs are not always the best. When Richard Money played for us he didn't do a bad job. So timing is everything and a better balanced centre half would be good.

Sounds like a rerun of the last two seasons -- once great players now too slow to play in England and on large wages = season long loan to Fulham or one year contract.
Oh, and I doubt that even QPR can match what the MLS will be willing to pay Lampard. I think the smart money is on his coming over here. I'll be stocking up on air freshener just in case.

Yes. You are right. We did act earlier in the window last season. I'll qualify my admission with the recollection that I didn't consider either of those except Stek and possibly Parker as any great statement of intent. Something we all tend to forget when times are tough is that continental players often take almost an entire season to acclimate to the league ( I think Amorebieta was just beginning to come into his own a bit in the last few matches ).
What I was referring to (and communicating poorly) is signing players who are talents in our current league who could be assets in the future if we do happen to get promoted. Realistic or not, some examples I was considering were Rhodes, Cresswell, Landsbury, etc.
To me, what would demonstrate our intent to get promoted is flexing our financial muscle within our own league and begin cherrypicking the talent from it.

Lewis Dunk looked a solid marauding defender, interesting to see how he fares against us.

Newly promoted Queens Park Rangers are considering making Manchester United central defender Rio Ferdinand, 35, the highest paid player at the club with a salary of up to £80,000 a week.
My goodness, is there no end to them putting their finger nearer the self destruct button. Sheer madness but am I worried for them,NO

Not saying it won't eventually happen (and if he's buddies with Petric and Petric is happy playing for Panathinaikos then that might help convince him that moving to Greece would be good as well), just that the Twitter rumors we've seen so far seem to be fairly meaningless.Quote from: jmh on June 11, 2014, 09:39:16 PMHe is def in Greece as petric face booked and tweeted a pic of them together this weekQuote from: VamosFFC on June 11, 2014, 04:47:38 PMIt was claimed that he was in Greece finalizing his move to Olympiacos last week as well.

Little different scoring goals at that level than in the Championship. Can't see it being true if we've got the likes of Woodrow and Dembele' waiting to step up.

Taggart deal is said to be close. Medical already done out in Brazil. The deal is worth less than a couple of hundred thousand so I think we can see that this is no replacement for a striker we will have to bring in who will be a definite starter.

Bring this lad in and get Bettinelli out on loan, developing further to become number one. Not sitting on the bench for years until he gets a shot like Stockdale - I think that has stumped his growth.

Quote from: dannyboi-ffc on June 24, 2014, 02:48:13 PMVolz is all of two months older than Riether. On the other hand, he's spent the last three years playing sparingly in the 2.Bundesliga.Quote from: Nero on June 24, 2014, 02:20:50 PM

I tell you what thats not the worst idea i've heard lately. I went to the allstars charity match and volzy looked in great shape and still looked decent. I know it was a charity game and most of them could just about walk let.alone.run but he still looked good enough. Only 31 too. I thought this at the time but thought people would just laugh.

Quote from: MJG on June 24, 2014, 04:45:51 PMTurned 23 just a few days ago. Second highest scorer in the top Croatian league last year. Perhaps notably, given our history of up futility against lower tier teams, scored 8 goals in a first-round cup match against a third-tier team. (Also scored two goals in the cup semifinal; his team went on to Croatian Cup although he did not score again in the final.) Not called up to the senior Croatia team yet, but 4 goals in 8 appearances for the Croatia U21 team.

My take: seems like an interesting prospect if you're into players who have had success in weaker leagues and might be able to make the jump to a higher level, but 7 million Euros seems like a lot.
Here's a highlights package. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbS1Ajkp3Jo)
Edit to add: from watching the video, he doesn't seem to be much of an aerial threat (there are three headed goals in the mix, but with no defenders near him on any of them), but dribbles well in tight space and scores and sets chances up with both feet. The back-heeled goal at around 4:18 is pretty neat.

I expect a few signings but not as many as the outgoings as surely Roberts, G Williams, Donnelly, Dembele can be promoted to the 1st team along with the likes of Christensen & David from the U21s

Hope this one's more than just hot air. Very very exciting if true.
Quote from: Admin on June 29, 2014, 03:46:15 PMAccording to a couple of journo's on twitter that's not true, in fact he came out and said the opposite. Don't think we'll get him though, Prem teams are interested.
Looks like thats the end of McCormack then, he pledges future to Leeds;
Earlier this month we ran a couple of articles that covered Fulham`s apparent interest in the Leeds United forward, Ross McCormack.
We mentioned that Fulham had, apparently, offered £7 million for the player but had been gazumped by a £9 million offer from Cardiff City.
At the time we assumed that would be the end of the matter and that the Welsh club would get their player.
However, it appears that the 27 year-old Scottish international who scored 29 goals last season has decided that Yorkshire really is the place for him and has decided that he will stay with Leeds United pledging his future to them.
Some you win and some you lose I guess!

Quote from: grandad on June 27, 2014, 05:30:31 PMWhen you're one of the better players in the Premier League at your position at 18, £30M is, I suppose, a reasonable price tag (albeit obviously an absurd amount of money in any real-world sense). None of our kids have (at this point) anything close to the combination of youth and proven success at high level to fetch anything close to that.

According to a tweet by prominent Bulgarian journo, we've signed young (17) CB Stefan Velkov from Bulgarian side Slavia Sofia. He's been described as a "bulgarian wonder kid"...
The randomness of the signing - to me at least - suggests it could be true. Also, apparently his dad has confirmed the transfer.
Supposedly CSKA Moscow, Zenit, and Manchester Utd are after him too, so would be quite a capture.

Just read a piece about Chihi actually. He came through as a huge talent at a young age and was seen as Podolski's successor. He initially did well, but along came the injuries he has been plagued by ever since. As soon as he's been able to play and train fairly regularly he got injued again.
But I guess it says something about his abality that Köln has kept him for this long despite his injury hell.

Read a report linking us with FC Koln midfielder Adil Chihi. (have to scroll down a bit to read about Chihi)
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2678566/Ross-McCormack-slaps-transfer-request-Fulham-target-tries-force-move.html (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2678566/Ross-McCormack-slaps-transfer-request-Fulham-target-tries-force-move.html)
Also, read on twitter that Hangeland might be heading to FC Copenhagen. Someone saw him on a flight there with his gear bag.
The article's a bit wrong about Chihi, he's out of contract so obviously we won't be getting him on loan.
Saw someone mention that error too. Anyone know anything on this player or if there is any truth to it?
Just read a piece about Chihi actually. He came through as a huge talent at a young age and was seen as Podolski's successor. He initially did well, but along came the injuries he has been plagued by ever since. As soon as he's been able to play and train fairly regularly he got injued again.
But I guess it says something about his abality that Köln has kept him for this long despite his injury hell.
If he is a sick note he should fit in with us.

Quote from: EricB on July 10, 2014, 12:13:58 AM
The Daily Star reporting........Fulham are lining up a £3m move for Sheffield United defender Harry Maguire.
He was very good when we played them, although if we were going for another CB I would have thought he would have more experience
Quote from: SKSW6 on July 10, 2014, 09:45:56 AM
Maguire's experience at his age is amazing and he definitely sounds a talent, but with Burn, Amore, Hutch, I think one of Voser and Hoogland can play there, and the likes of Grimmer and Donelly coming through, do we need him? It is a long season though and I don't really know the make-up of a championship squad.
Quote from: westcliff white on July 10, 2014, 10:06:44 AM
I am sure Voser / Hoogland can play centre back however they are not listed anywhere i have seen as having that in their repertoire. Hoogland can play centre midfield though

Actually, some of us do watch games from other leagues around the world and have seen him play. For 20 years old he is a very mature, energetic, and skillful player. Then again, nothing will ever appease you it seems so what's the bother in pointing it out.

According to Transfermarkt, both players have played LB, RB, LM, and RM in the past 3 years. Hoog has also played CM and DM in that period. Neither have been deployed at CB.
But, if Burn can play RB, who knows where anyone will be used!

I'm not sure how many of the 8 matches he played for the Leverkusen's first team last season that you watched, or the one match that he played the season before, and I didn't realize PAOK was regularly featured on television ANYWHERE, but sure ... lots of people have plenty of evidence to show that he'll be our top player at that position this coming season.
I really must spend more time on Youtube and learn to play FIFA computer games. My education is sadly incomplete.

Quote from: Full Metal Ham on July 13, 2014, 01:07:03 PMYes, he was #3 on Iran during the World Cup and is a very well rounded player. Fast, technical, and strong with good vision, shooting, and a great work ethic. He is only 24 years-old and can play as an attacking-minded left-back, playmaker, or left-winger. Would be a solid signing to replace Richardson but I think he will end up in Hull.
Linked with the Iran left-winger Ehsan Hajsafi.
"The winger is available to sign on a free transfer this summer, and Fulham and Cardiff are keen, but face a tough battle with Premier League side Hull City also having deep interest in the playmaker."
Another Iranian Winger in the squad would be great, keep Ashkan company..
Anyone seen him play?

What does he have to lose... we are without doubt a bigger and better team than Hull. They are also probably going to be tipped as relegation candidates. We just had a shockingly bad season when we changed owners.
He would play every week, further his career and be in the Premier league within a year.

Hull won't get relegated this year, there are to many poor teams in the Premiership. Plus, under Bruce, he's added a good few additions and made them very hard to beat. If anything, Hull would be a good for Maguire, he may just chose us over them simply for playing time.

In what way are we "definitely" a bigger club than Hull? Almost identically sized ground, both haven't really won anything in our history. We may gave spent longer in the PL recently, but they're the team there right now. I'd be wary of calling ourselves a "bigger club". Don't want to start going down the Leeds route of thinking we're better than we are. I'd say we're about level-pegging with them all things considered.

So leeds arent bigger than hull then? Of course we are, more years in the top flight, more established/big name players over our history, a european final which only 16 other english clubs have achieved. Same size ground and fanbase. Hull have nothing that can be bettered, apart.from they are in the prem and were not. What about the 10 years out of 13 we were and they werent. Stoke however would be more of a debate but not hull.

Hutchinson, Burn, Amorebieta, Burgess? I feel like I'm missing someone but if not, we could do with another one as Burgess won't be ready. Amore can also cover at LB I suppose.

Surprised that we're after more CBs. Maybe Amore is leaving

Quote from: Lighthouse on July 17, 2014, 03:21:46 PMSeems unlikely that we're still after him (or that he'd still want to come play for us) with Stafylidis already on board.
Jason Davidson, the Aussie World Cup left back Fulham were interested in is rumoured to be on his way to London after skipping training.

None of the above, yes I know some don't agree, but none of these IMHO will be good enough for a promotion chasing season in the Championship.

That's an interesting point you make as allegedly since then 56 other players have missed their test and never been punished. They never found anything in his sample, so you could say that's because he missed the test but it would be speculation i guess. Either way missed test aside Rio did a fantastic job for his clubs and his country, he should of been at the last Euros but the FA's obsession with John Terry stopped that.

My mum works in a primary school in the peckham/camberwell area which is where rio is from. He refused to visit the school as a local role model to encourage kids to believe they can achieve anything. He refused because the school couldnt pay him the 1000's he demanded, this was a few years back when gilberto silva played for arsenal.
I say that because the same year as rio's ignorance, gilberto visited the school and rather than take a fee, he gave all the kids a goody bag of arsenal bits and bobs with a signed card each and asked for a small donation to his charity. Rio is an arrogant mug who isnt a good role model, the only big name england star of that generation who was a role model is beckham and possibly gary neville. The others for one reason or another have been twats during their careers.
Rio will be like berbatov for us, a whale in a bath doesnt work let alone big fish in a small pond. He could single handedly destroy any team spirit they have, imagine if he is awful for the first 8 games, would harry dare drop his mate? It really stinks of a jol/berba scenario.
And in my opinion rio was no longer good enough for england and was rightfully not picked. The situation with terry was a joke from both players and neither deserved to play, I cant believe they were both england captains!!!!! Evra will probably leave united because its time to be replaced but has the likes of juventus in for him whilst rio has gone to qpr. Talk about fall from grace, you've gotta ask yourself why no one else wanted an old injury plagued money grabbing p****.
Berba was the worst signing we ever made because of how jol allowed him to destroy the team, hopefully rio does the same to them

Interesting post Danny, thanks.
Agree with your points about role models; speaking of which, Gilberto Silva is now one of mine.
I really can't see Rio being a good capture for Harry. Tony Fernandes clearly hasn't learnt from his last spell in the Prem...

Anyway we were chatting and I mentioned I coached a local kids team in my area and that we had a charity ball with auction every October. I was angling for a signed shirt or something when He said and I quote thats great, tell you what I will give a box at Old Trafford and meet the box guests after the game, gave me an email address and said email him in September and he would sort it all out. September came round, I emailed thinking I would hear nothing back, with in a week, a reply saying a box for a game the following February (think it was a villa game) with full hospitality. I didn't bid on the prize as could not make it but the guy who won it said he was amazing, came to the box after the game with Fletcher and Evra, signed autographs and gave them out some merchandise.Quote from: westcliff white on July 18, 2014, 06:49:31 AMQuote from: Nero on July 18, 2014, 12:15:07 AMQuote from: God The Mechanic on July 17, 2014, 05:38:22 PM

Dannyboi - this was not targeted at you but more an attempt to recalibrate the Silly Season Thread .
Not being Premier League means that there is limited info of the transfer dealings of the clubs fighting for promo with us . It would be great if this thread could keep us updated on who is likely to be playing for this seasons opponents .

Quote from: FPT on July 18, 2014, 10:29:26 PMhave they signed remy then, i heard liverpool were after him
I wouldn't say Fabio Borini is quality, I know he's only 23 but his goal record is really, quite poor. He scored 8 League goals last season, and 3 were from the penalty spot! It's not even just basing it on his goal record, I see very little in his general play that would make me want to pay £7m, let alone £14m!
Anyway, this isn't a "FPT have a moan at players being overrated thread." £14m is a ridiculous sum of money to spend on Borini, I think their Geordie neighbours have had a wonderful transfer window:
Emmanuel Riviere (who I think is next seasons' "dark horse striker" he's a talent) for £6m. Then you add on top:
Remy Cabella for £8m - One of the best Ligue 1 players outside of PSG and Monaco.
Daryl Janmaat for £5m - Decent replacement for Debuchy, has promise too.
Siem De Jong for £7.5m - He'll do well. Consistent goalscorer from attacking midfield. An imposing Ruiz.
Jack Colback for nothing - work horse and consistent.
That's with an expenditure of just about £13m considering they sold Debuchy for £12m, plus a couple more could go, i.e. tubby Ben Arfa.

Oh no not the Taarabt debate again! A very selfish QPR player whose loan to FFC was cancelled by us then shipped out to Milan and if he was that good at Milan why have they not resigned him? Not gone on the QPR tour of Germany? either some other fool is after him or 'arrys had enough of him!

Quote from: Lighthouse on July 22, 2014, 10:12:46 AM
Sorry if this has already been mentioned
Championship trio Watford, Wigan and Fulham are all chasing Leicester midfielder Andy King, Sky Sports understands.
King is entering the final year of his contract at the King Power Stadium and a number of clubs are thought to be monitoring his situation.
The 25-year-old found himself down the pecking order in Nigel Pearson's starting XI during the second half of last season with Danny Drinkwater and Matty James the preferred central midfield partnership and his suitors are hoping he could be lured away with the prospect of regular first-team football.
The former Chelsea youngster has established himself as one of the best midfielders outside the Premier League in recent seasons and helped Leicester win the Championship title last term.
Watford, Fulham and Wigan are all keen to bring in an attacking midfielder and they see King as someone who could boost their promotions bids next season.
It remains to be seen if Leicester would be willing to cash-in on Wales international King as they prepare for life back in the Premier League.
Quote from: FPT on July 22, 2014, 01:45:05 PM
Andy King would be a very useful signing. Consistently good in the Championship, very good with the ball at his feet and a set piece machine. Also, still only 25 and a Wales international. Would be a very, very wise signing. Wigan have just added Emyr Huws on loan to their squad, so that perhaps puts them out of the running. Scored 15 goals from central midfield about 3 years ago; getting him into the PFA Team of the Year.
As for the Chelsea point, yes, they just buy the best 16-22 year olds that they can and loan them until either A) They're good enough, or B) They give up on them, but by that point, they're 24 and not much better than they were when they were initially signed.

Mark Hughes has pulled an absolute blinder getting bojan to the sh1t that is stoke, it could not be further away from Barcelona, polar opposites in both cities and style of play

Mark Hughes is doing exactly the same as he done here, he's making it more balanced. Last season they weren't the Stoke of old, and since adding the likes of Diouf and Bojan, it'll only further them from Pulis' Neanderthal ways. They were enjoyable at times last season, but as normal (after so many years of long ball) they would slip into old habits, and into Sparky's second season, we'll see less and less of it.

Quote from: ollienixs on July 22, 2014, 10:28:44 PMIn fairness, Bojan has fallen pretty far from the days when he was regarded as the next big thing for Barcelona. 4 goals in the Eredivisie last year isn't exactly awe-inspiring.

Quote from: jmh on July 23, 2014, 01:57:47 PMAgree, when you consider Roma payed €12,000,000 for him for 2 seasons (effectively a loan) and then had to pay an extra €28,000,000 at the end of that period if they wanted him for longer it doesn't look like he progressed at all. In fact if you look at his time at Roma, AC and Ajax it is very poor. But he did and still does have bags of potential.Quote from: ollienixs on July 22, 2014, 10:28:44 PMIn fairness, Bojan has fallen pretty far from the days when he was regarded as the next big thing for Barcelona. 4 goals in the Eredivisie last year isn't exactly awe-inspiring.

Derby County's main summer signing George Thorne has been ruled out for up to nine months with a cruciate knee ligament injury.
Thorne only joined last week but was hurt in Tuesday's pre-season friendly loss to Zenit St Petersburg in Austria.
The 21-year-old former West Brom player was a transfer target all summer after impressing while on loan last season.

I really hope we pull this one off! I used to have a season ticket for Karabukspor back when I was an exchange student. Did you know they only changed the name to SUPER league because ahmet Llhan ozek was so good! We used to sing a song for him "theres only one ahmet llhan ozek!"

The whites are still in talks with the Garanite Xhaka and Nzonzi.
David Stockdale may still stay but Maarten Stekelenberg will leave with Boruc joining as his replacement.
Ashkan Dejagah (now obviously not) & Mitroglou are likely to stay as Ruiz is close to joining Besiktas for 7m.

Well if we get £5 million for Dejagah, £6 million for Ruiz, roughly £5 million for Kasami, a small fee for Richardson that will be a decent amount, and if you subtract McCormack's up front fee it should be just under £10 million to invest.
Plenty to get what we need.

Definitely is bizarre - first choice keeper for much of second half of last season, and one of the only players in our squad to have played in the Championship previously and therefore has invaluable experience that the rest of the squad could feed off. Couple that with the fact he loves the club and has constantly shown passion and fight while in a white shirt, this transfer really disappoints me. Can't see us getting any more than £1 million for him either, and it will be near impossible to find an equal or better replacement for the same money, in my opinion.

You say that, but if a good replacement did come in, and it was an upgrade on Stockdale, you'd be signing about it from the rooftops. Bottom line is, Stockdale isn't anything special, this is the 3rd manager now that doesn't fancy him, and was only used by Magath because we didn't have any other options. As before, if we can afford to upgrade in this position then we should.

Bizarre to me but Stockdale is in Brighton according to rumour.
Hardly Bizarre as he will be sold.
You not what I mean. I know you are not a fan, but to me it is bizarre to sell our two keepers.
He'll only be sold if we've got an adequate, or better replacement coming in. One of either Joronen or Bettinelli will then take a place on the bench.

Definitely is bizarre - first choice keeper for much of second half of last season, and one of the only players in our squad to have played in the Championship previously and therefore has invaluable experience that the rest of the squad could feed off. Couple that with the fact he loves the club and has constantly shown passion and fight while in a white shirt, this transfer really disappoints me. Can't see us getting any more than £1 million for him either, and it will be near impossible to find an equal or better replacement for the same money, in my opinion.
You say that, but if a good replacement did come in, and it was an upgrade on Stockdale, you'd be signing about it from the rooftops. Bottom line is, Stockdale isn't anything special, this is the 3rd manager now that doesn't fancy him, and was only used by Magath because we didn't have any other options. As before, if we can afford to upgrade in this position then we should.
Let's be honest, we all thought Steklenburg was going to be a significant step up from Stockdale but look how that one turned out. Stockdale might not be world class but he's certainly good enough for the Championship, not to mention the fact he loves the club and wants to play for us. There are other positions that need more urgent attention than our goalkeeper. If we had started the season with Stockdale in goal there wouldn't be many people too upset by it. Now it leaves another vacant position with no guarantee any possible replacement will perform any better than Stockdale has done. To me his departure seems unnecessary and bizarre.

Van der Sar was also joining a Premier club. He also cost us 7.1 million and that was 13 years ago. So I guess if we are willing to spend a fortune, we can pick and choose who we get to replace Stockdale.
Quote from: TWFL on July 28, 2014, 04:34:29 PMdoesnt have to be long term, just long enough to get us up. we will be able to get a better keeper if we go up, and stockdale has already proved he is good enough for a promotion winning team in this league
Gotta agree with Admin here, Stockdale is not the keeper everyone thinks he is. Good shot stopper? Yes. Good commander of his box? No. Comfortable with crosses? No. He's not the long term answer.

I think Stockdale is a very decent keeper at this level, and easily one of the best in the league... I would look for a new number 1 if we went up, but this is terrible business all round, even more so if we sell to a promotion rival.

Quote from: Deanothefulhamfan on July 28, 2014, 05:41:22 PMBut the point was that the coaching staff expected Crouch to be playing and drifting out to the offensive left a lot, and used Burn there to counteract that specific threat. They presumably didn't expect Assaidi since he hadn't started a match for three months and had played all of 40 minutes since suffering a serious injury. Now of course we know it didn't turn out that way and Assaidi tore us a new one, but don't act like it was a completely random idea like Magath just suddenly decided that maybe Burn's best position was right back and the idea was that he should be isolated against Assaidi all the time, because that wasn't the case. It was a decision based on assumptions that turned out to be incorrect, not a decision without any reasoning behind it.
There is no positive tactic, for playing a 6ft 7 left footed defender ar rb against one of the trickiest wingers in the league.... Sorry JMH FM got it so very wrong.

And, for that matter, from the Fulham perspective, we're going to sign a guy who doesn't speak English, barely a week before our season is going to start, after the past month has been spent building chemistry with the guys who are already here?

Dean, in all due respect, you lost faith in our manager last season, and before a ball has even been kicked this season, you're on his back, regardless of what ever he does. The guy is no fool, yes he made a couple of mistakes last season, but people need to drop the Magath bashing and give the guy a bloody chance. I'm sure winning the Bundesliga 3 times, the German Cup and saving 4 teams from relegation really doesn't count for anything in your eyes, but again, it'll all come back to playing Dan Burn at right back and selling Stockdale.
Please, start giving the guy some bloody credit and wait to see what happens, otherwise I will be forced NOT to buy you a beer next time we meet for being a douche!!

David Stockdale played a full 90 minutes tonight as Brighton were beaten 3-1 by Southampton, just over 7,200 saw the game.

Bollocks, he will do a marvellous job for them. Unfortunately, for as much as you can dislike him Pulis knows how to set up a defensive team and grind out results unlike many of our past managers.

For a start, please leave the swearing words at home, it's not tolerated here on FOF. Secondly, Brede will not cope with the physical side of Pulis and the way he sets up his teams, that I can assure you of. He's recent back issues will not cope, Brede is far from the player he used to be.

Quote from: cmg on August 01, 2014, 09:59:43 AMI thought this as well. He was really good for Villa before we signed him, one of Rangers' top players before their implosion, and has been a useful (if not headline-grabbing) contributor for Southampton for a couple of years now. It's strange to me that LS would spend the money on him and then not use him effectively, but, even more so, strange to me that Roy didn't see any use for him.Quote from: MasterHaynes on August 01, 2014, 08:31:11 AM
Davis(ex Fulham) was MOM
Steve Davis was one of our greatest unsung cock-ups, wasn't he?
Bought by Sanchez in his NI-or-bust phase and then used in a system in which he was totally unsuitable and quickly shipped out. Everytime I have seen him play since, whether for Rangers, Southampton or NIreland he has been either impressive or MoM. Just the sort of player we lacked these last few years, too.

Talking of Bulgarian centre-backs, did we sign the youngster, Velkov, as was being widely reported a few weeks ago?
Reports from Bulgaria are stating today that Fulham have signed 17 year old Bulgarian centre back, Stefan Velkov. There have been rumours over the past week that Magath has been pushing hard to sign the 6'3" defender and a deal looked close until some outside influences tried to derail the deal. In fact, the report continues that "well wishers" from Bulgaria contacted Shahid Khan stating that he had "health problems" which delayed the deal.
Velkov had a trial at Manchester United in December and at the time, Utd had asked for 1st refusal on the youngster who has already made 23 appearances for Slavia Sofia.
Although the deal hasn't been confirmed on either clubs website, the Sofia chairman confirmed that he's signed a deal for 5 years for a fee believed to be worth EU 650,000.

Might not have anything to do with it unless we are using the 'selling to buy' strategy.

wasnt really thinking about goalkeepers. my main concern is the midfield. if we play the diamond, the 2 on the side i have no clue. ruiz could potentially fit in(hope not) if he stays.
maybe khan is relying on funds coming in to buy new players.

I just don't think you can simply say "we should've signed him" as if it's that simple.

I thought Boateng really shored up the defence in the games he played, and his composure on the ball was surprising for a player of his type.
Think he got given a few unfair yellow cards based on a bad reputation.

He looked promising at times but a complete liability at others. To this day I have no idea why we spent 3 windows trying to get him. If we weren't prepared to spend last summer, we could have just re-signed Enoh who played a similar role, and played it better.

I feel like this club kind of needs a "bruiser-type" in the back half of the midfield/defensive third. Maybe Bodurov will fill that role.

Costa Rica centre back Gonzalez has interested Fulham and they have apparently had two offers declined by his MLS side Columbus Crew. Fulham will need a bid of £3 million to secure a deal.
Rodallega keen to leave Fulham and go back to South America - if reports are to be believed it would be difficult for him to remain at Fulham as he has made it clear he would like a move away from England. He has been involved in pre season games but Fulham could cope with his departure especially if Mitroglou stays.
Ruiz future at the club still in the balance and there are rumours he might leave for football in Holland, Italy or Spain.
Fulham will only do more business should Rodallega, Mitroglou or Ruiz leave the club.
Stekelenberg also expected to leave before transfer window ends.
Sena interest seems to be cooling as other clubs move in and his price and wage demands increase.

Quote from: Ordar on August 06, 2014, 03:09:29 PM
Personally I'd let the 2 young keepers fight for the spot. But thats just me.
Quote from: andersons11 on August 07, 2014, 11:54:58 AM
My views on the keeper situation is a bit torn. I think if they are indeed ready, there is no better way to get them matches then with us. I sense something special coming with this squad, that if done right could be the basis of our club for the next decade or so. Imagine something along the lines of Bayern (but on a lesser scale) where they have 6 (or 7) of the World Cup winning squad on their books.
Back to the keepers, if Felix says they are ready, then why not. Yes, there is more pressure on them to succeed early and with little error as there is a bit more pressure on them than lets say an outfield player. I would be more secure in my mind if we were to bring in a Brad Friedel type, someone who is towards the end of their career and can a kind of mentor to them, take a match or two between the posts if need be. This way in effect we get another helper for AL but some assurance if we need a more experienced player between the sticks.

Would welcome Ruiz staying if he committed - but unlikely to
Amore could stay . But not certain .
New signings likely

Watching the Premier League Countdown show on NBCSN and they just mentioned Southampton raked in 161M in transfer fees so far.
Now that....is a good business model. You can spend 25% of that on some bright new prospects and some Prem quality journeyman and pocket the rest and start over. They may get relegated but the will have a huge heap of dosh to rebuild. Not sure what their debt situation looks like but they've done good building with youth and then selling them on.
Quote from: Deanothefulhamfan on August 09, 2014, 11:29:10 AMVoser and taggert were nominal fees but guess they are still fees. I did mention I did mention in another post that McCormack cost sizeable funds and a return similar to,last year is what we need to get up this. As for eisfield that's a million or so well spent for me. But as I have consistently said I am cautiously optimistic for the season ahead, but do feel we need some experienced championship or similar type players coming in
Westcliff, correct me if I am wrong but have we not bought 4 players this summer?
Vosser
Mccormack
Eisfield
Taggart
Quote from: Lighthouse on August 10, 2014, 11:26:19 AMThat will upset a few on this board as the idiots have had their knives out for Magath since day 1. I hope they lost their money on betting that Magath would be 1st to go.

Italian websites are saying we have agreed a deal in principle for Taulant Xhaka who is a defender for Basle. Wikipedia says he is 5ft 7" so he can only be a full back. Why do we need another full back??? Unfortunately no mention of his brother Granit who is supposed to be very good.

He's ridiculously versatile. Last season he played all across the midfield and all across the defence. I think if he's bought it's more as a CDM.

Some of these names we are being linked with his hilarious, Xhaka and now Hernandez, these are top European footballers, we have no chance, unless Khan pays super big wages... which would totally ruin the sustainability factor he is trying to push.
Nice to be linked with big names despite how unrealistic they are....

The article in the paper quotes "Standard Sport understands that Fulham have made buying a wide man a top priority to provide service for their main summer signing Ross McCormack. They are also looking at Watford's Ikechi Anya but Adomah is their first choice as things stand."
Then it goes on to talk about how West Ham have made an enquiry whilst Watford would struggle to avoid him, Middlesbrough have previously rejected £3m from Nottingham Forest and want to keep him as they have high hopes for promotion. Adomah was part of the Ghana World Cup squad.

Walsh, it is clear that you are a Ruiz fan. I am as well and I agree with your comments. Ruiz needs runners and the kids can fit that bill. I think he could do a job. I'd even put him in in place of Parker. Be dangerous but the back four is starting to gel. A solid attack would help keep the other team back. The counter might kill us but we can't win without goals.

I'm glad the first person to comment agree's because I'm waiting for an mass amount of hate towards my post. I am indeed a huge Bryan Ruiz fan, I just hope he either starts playing for us or goes to another club... preferably Southampton, I think he'd fit in well there and it would give me a Premiership team to follow at the weekends, at the moment I'm just watching the match which looks like it will be a good game.

Ehsan Hajsafi the Iranian 24 year old left back and midfielder may still be on his way to Fulham as Hull appear to have dropped out of the running. But Hajsafi is another cheap option and not a shoe in for a first team start.

Fantastic he can warm the bench with the rest of Magaths ridiculous foreign signings.
Quote from: God The Mechanic on August 29, 2014, 02:37:37 PMIs he good enough to be a regular starter? That's what we need.Quote from: Northern Cottager on August 29, 2014, 02:16:29 PMQuote from: Lighthouse on August 29, 2014, 01:42:41 PM

He 24, has over 60 caps and played at the WC last month. He's got age and experience on his side. Doesn't sound like too bad a signing really.

Well... I don't know. But I'm willing to give him a chance before writing him off.

Quote from: Northern Cottager on August 29, 2014, 02:16:29 PMWhat do you mean? Most of Magath's "ridiculous foreign signings" (as if the football played in other countries is somehow a different game from that played in England) have been playing a significant amount. Hoogland, Stafylidis, Bodurov, Voser all look to be significant first team contributors. Eisfeld too, but he came from Arsenal so I'm not sure whether he counts as "foreign" through your provincial glasses. Taggart it's too soon to say because he's been injured. True Fazlic and Chihi haven't, but they were trialists brought in to add depth and hardly major financial commitments.Quote from: Lighthouse on August 29, 2014, 01:42:41 PM

But not on a Macarthur type level, sorry. I think you'll find that all transfer dealings (after McCormack) show our intentions, and we won't be spending that type of money. Would like to be proved wrong, but I'm pretty confident.

Quote from: fulhamben on August 29, 2014, 05:32:31 PMThat's one way to look at it. Another way to look at it is getting rid of players who were past their best or didn't want to play in the Championship and bringing in younger players who have the potential to improve and eventually be competitive in the Premier League. But in any case, "asset stripping" imparts an insidious motivation to what's gone on, and one which you have absolutely no basis to believe is accurate.Quote from: jmh on August 29, 2014, 05:13:16 PMOK then, weakening the squad whilst making moneyQuote from: fulhamben on August 29, 2014, 04:45:18 PMKeeping on repeating "asset stripping" doesn't make it true.Quote from: SouthWest6 on August 29, 2014, 04:42:11 PMI totally agree, buying a player doesn't go with our asset stripping policy, was just saying its only 3 days even if we want a cheapyQuote from: fulhamben on August 29, 2014, 04:38:02 PMQuote from: SouthWest6 on August 29, 2014, 04:34:55 PMwe have 3 days to finalise any dealQuote from: ToodlesMcToot on August 29, 2014, 03:17:28 PMQuote from: Lighthouse on August 29, 2014, 03:14:52 PM

Honest question: How much have we spent on transfers, and how much did we receive from parachute payments?
It's certainly seems like we should have more money to spend and not be signing trialists and bargain signings. Makes me wonder if some of that money is going toward the riverside stand.

but note that the club usually says that the fee is undisclosed so the quoted fees are based on newspaper articles and rumour.
