The Shahid Khan Era Silly Season Thread (Transfer speculation after 13/7)

[TWFL]

"At this club we have Alistair doing all the deals, I am not even involved in all the financial stuff," Jol told talkSPORT. "I advise him and then he tries to make us happy because we are a team. I have my scout Barry Simmonds and he is a main factor so we have a very good system in place. "We are probably 20th in the league for spending money but we still do well and we are very proud of that. "We got Darren Bent and Scott Parker who I think will be a hit and, if we can attract these players, we are doing well."

Interesting.

What I think is happening is that, at the moment, Shad Khan is evaluating the situation here. He's a businessman after all and so will not want to splash silly money straightaway, which is perfectly reasonable. If he is serious about us being in a place to spend big, then I think we might see that next summer. Whatever the case is we are delaying a quite serious squad overhaul season after season.

Oh, so now it's Bursaspor? Interesting. Frei could have his own Silly Season thread as he seems to be aiming for a stint at every club in Turkey.

Pretty much inevitable.  Sort of regardless of his talent, he's worth more in Turkey than he is anywhere else.  I wish him well.

Very sad to see Frei go but almost inevitable when he he dropped behind Kaca and Mesca .

Would have liked to see him grow into a 1st team player .

But great we have managed to get decent cash for an academy player - starts to make the academy pay .

[sunburywhite]

is he a record sale for an academy player?

Smalling?  Or doesn't he count cos he was only there for a few years?

Smalling was too old to be counted as developed by Fulham.

All done on transfers ?
Including those that could go out .
Are any windows still open ?
Turkey ? Russia ? Or anywhere else strange ?

Or are we now just left with the free agents ?

Loan window opens this weekend, is that loaning from lower leagues

We can only loan players out, we can't sign anyone.
