The Official Silly Season 2014/15 Transfer Thread

[Swiss72]

Andy Delort, the prolific striker from FC Tours, seems off to Charlton for €3m. Not sure we need him, but seems a fair price.

Jason Davidson to West Brom.  I'm disappointed we didn't nab this guy.  I suppose we got Stafy but its only a loan isn't it?

Is that the Aussie left back we were talking about?  If he's getting signed by a Premier League club, what makes you think he would've been willing to sign with us?

No thanks on Frimpong.  He's alright but we could do better.

Is there a source on the claim that Sane is "between us and cardiff"?

He would have got a game with us straight away before we signed Stafy.  He might be sitting on the bench a bit more at West Brom.  The word is he was very keen to join us. 

That's what "the word" was, sure, but "the word" is often wrong, and even if that was the case, it could certainly be that once that word got out, interest from bigger clubs materialized and then he was no longer interested in joining Fulham.  I just don't think you can simply say "we should've signed him" as if it's that simple.  It takes two to sign a contract.

Quite a coup by them if true.

Watford interested in Frimpong, would you take him back at Fulham??

Yes. Absolutely.

I really wish that we still had Derek Boateng.

Surely you are joking. Of all those left I would take kara back

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.

[westcliff white]

I never saw him have a good game or a good half hour for us

Granted, Enoh was probably better.

This from Wikipedia doesn't look good. I hope he has learned his lesson:

On 14 April 2014 in a match against the San Jose Earthquakes, González ran into the back of striker Chris Wondolowski to try to aggravate the striker into retaliation in hopes of getting him sent off. Wondolowski then got up, touched González lightly, who then fell down in a heap. MLS Disciplinary Committee fined González for embellishment.[4]

He was super in the World Cup and his play for Columbus has been sensational... from an MLS perspective. Not sure how I feel about it relative to Fulham. But I don't hate it.

Yes, Enoh was much better in those terms.

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.

No bruisers please.

We need someone like Diarra or Dembele who can read the game and snuff out any threats.

Mutch to QPR is a done deal.

In one of today's papers report saying that Fulham want £2.5 million to allow Mitroglou to join Hertha Berlin on loan

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.
