The Official 2015 Silly Season Transfer Thread

[Bronaldinho]

Hooper and Lafferty expected to leave Norwich today.

Hooper been linked to us, but Lafferty would provide a great target man in the absence of Smith.

[westcliff white]

I think we are moving away from the target man out last 2 games have been good performances playing without a target

[Ordar]

Sky sources understand Watford's Matej Vydra is joining Reading on a season-long loan.

pumping it up to smith wasn't working and it didn't work last season either.

which is why I think we are moving away form it, we look more fluid and competent the last 2 games

Fulham's young striker Adam Taggart has agreed to join Dundee United on a season-long loan, according to Sky sources.

Meanwhile, Fulham defender Nikolay Bodurov is set to move out on loan to another Championship club with a number of clubs chasing him.

[God The Mechanic]

Taggart is apparently going to Dundee United on loan and Bodurov has been made available to Championship clubs.  We're signing rivals' best players and sending them our worst - I like it!

[SKSW6]

Glad Taggart's going out on loan. Needs games and he's not gonna get them here with Ross + Dembele/Woodrow/Smith when he returns/new signing.

lets hope he sticks around for the second part of it

[Ordar]

Good, lets get this Stearman deal done. Will be interesting to hear (if we do) if he was actually the first choice ahead of Dunk, and it just took Wolves ages to decide to sell as was reported. There cant be too many CB partnerships on paper better than Stearman and Ream in this division.

[Barrett487]

A little over seven hours left in the transfer window, but no-one hurries  Dimitar Berbartov.

The former Tottenham and Manchester United striker, a free agent after leaving Monaco, is in the Midlands according to Sky Sports and is strolling in Aston Villa's direction.

At least at 34, his game has never been reliant on pace.

[westcliff white]

James WIlson is available for loan apparently, now he is quick and can finish (a u21 level anyway)

[Lighthouse]

Fulham have reportedly turned down a bid from Sheffield United for Dan Burn although talks are said to be ongoing.

Norwich are hoping to bring in a striker before allowing Hooper to leave.

Would be gutted if this happens.

SHEFF UTD BID FOR BURN

Sheffield United have made a bid for Fulham's Dan Burn, according to Sky sources. 

We understand it has not met Fulham's valuation and talks between the clubs over a deal remain ongoing.

[snarks]

I'm not sure whether this is bad or not, I like Burn, but he has shown his limitations over the last couple of seasons. He was at fault for their Goal on Saturday, he turns slower than the Queen Mary.

I'm just not sure whether he is good enough consistently at this level. Although there is no doubting his enthusiasm or effort.

[Craven Mad]

Anyone think we could be working our way towards a flexible 3-5-2 sort of formation?

With Ream a CB/LB, Mancienne a CB/RB, Fredricks being a RB/RM and Husband and LB/LM, could work well...

How we could look next game:



And - without subs - could change to something like:
