There's a website called Flight Radar (https://www.flightradar24.com/) & you can essentially work out which flights are going where based on the fact that FFC always use the same charter (NetJets) and fly players into Farnborough. From there you can look at the chartered inbound flights and do some logical deductions!

Thanks Deeping. I'm familiar with a few flight tracking sites but didn't know about NetJets.  ::thumb::

As we wait for anything official it looks like Real Madrid have signed an even younger striker Carlos Espi which would tend to confirm that Gonzalo Garcia is heading our way. In the absence of any positive data,  a trivial observation, I think Gonzalo looks a lot like Lou Diamond Philips in a movie of my youth 'Young Guns'.

When I think of 'Young Guns', I think of WHAM!

Good call! I thought he looked vaguely familiar

Terry Gibson former Spurs Coventry Wimbledon Man Utd the list goes on but has been a TV Commentator on Spanish football for a few years now just said on the wireless that a huge gamble being taken by Fulham with the young Real Madrid players. Thought they were both decent players but leaned towards being very cautious on these signings.
Let's be fair as much as it might be exciting on the other hand it could be disastrous. Not sure we will see a middle ground with this Fulham team as it stands between start of season and say end of October? Spectacular start or a complete nose dive?

Any signing is a huge gamble but I bet if he went to United or Liverpool the media would be fawning over the signing like he was the second coming of Raul

Fair point and almost quite likely. With the relatively tough start we have it's likely to be a even bigger gamble though? We shall see as previous it could be a spectacular start but unless another couple of quality additions the wheels could come off very early.

He looks a bit more wind-resistant than Oscar Bobb

And George Georgiou.

The Gonz looks like he could play wide also.
Doesn't seem a target man type.

Now there's a true blast from the past. Great hair IIRC

I listened to this as well and he really didn't have anything good to say about our new head coach,in fact he was quite negative.

And that is probably a positive!

Terry Gibson was also a coach under Lawrie Sanchez at Fulham so given how bad we were under him he should probably consider keeping quiet as he's hardly an authority on coaching himself

Someone said if we sign Garcia and started with Kevin and Bobb either side, they'd had the initials KGB - not sure if that's a good idea or not
