The 2016 Official Silly Summer Season Transfer Thread

[fulhamben]

Dont believe a word of it.
Punching the air when our 3rd goal went in yesterday apparently.
Mind you must be true its in the Mail. :022:

It does all seem very odd to me. Especially with that photo of half the squad at his for the BBQ over the summer. If he, as the media have said, asked to leave because he doesn't  believe we`ll be good enough this season then surely it would make it quite awkward with the other players.

id imagine that players remain friends no matter what happens. i still go out with ex work colleagues from time to time, as i imagine footballers do too. plus its just as likely that we want to cash in as it is ross wants to leave. at the end of the day if ross wants to stay that bad he can just refuse to sign for anyone forcing us to retain him or pay up his contract. and like wise, if the club dont want him to go then they can just refuse to sell him unless there is a clause that has been activated. the fact that neither ross or the club have commented on the situation speaks volumes to me, plus what i have heard, ill be amazed if ross is still here come september. whatever happens, the sooner it is sorted one way or the other the better

With Ross McCormack potentially leaving Fulham. Fulham are now looking at signing Teemu Pukki #FFC #FulhamFC

[FulhamStu]

The big question Jokanovc must be asking is .. Can McCormack play in between Ayite and Aluno. If yes, they could be a serious threat, if not, sell and buy someone who can.

Ross McCormack set to complete £12million move to Norwich as Fulham finally accept bid for their star striker

After yesterday's fabulous dress-rehearsal for the new season, I wonder to what extent, if any, Ross will be questioning the wisdom of leaving.

[hovewhite]

I can see him staying as who wouldn't want to play in the same team as the new boys in sone and ayite!

[sunburywhite]

Can we sign the commentator from the Palace game?

How would he get on with no replays

[Tooting legend]

Personally I think the current team has a better balance, remember last season how slow we were getting the ball forward, and we were all moaning. Now look at the current team and you are a massive difference we are actually frightening teams with our pace plus we are scoring goals all this without Ross in the team. I think this season we will see more players scoring as a team rather then one player banging in 20 goals. Yes I think a replacement is needed and I believe we wouldn't sell Ross without having this inplace. Here's to a great and exciting season.

To be fair to GJ hes not a professional and he has had 3 years of dross put in front of him and think it begining to take it toll on the poor chap, lets hope for a few wins or at least not conceding from every corner to cheer him up and get a spring back into his step.

Eddy Silvestre is said to be on his way to Fulham. An attacking midfielder at over 6 foot.

Not a big transfer So a squad player I presume?

for la liga clubs, there are probably prem players who have played less that would make good squad additions for us.

Teemu Pukki was a disaster at Celtic hope we can look elsewhere personally

Real Murcia are my local club & are League 2, League 1 at best. Eddy could not get in the 1st team & was sent out to Cordoba on a season loan. Very much a squad player. Real Murcia are in the 3rd tier which is split into 4 groups. They have misses out in the play offs for the last 2 seasons for promotion to League 2. Not much money in the club so €200k is a windfall. Nice modern stadium & only costs €15 for a seat.

Begs the question why we are spending 200k on a nobody who will float through the club picking up a wage ala Larnell Cole, Matilla and so on.

I hope not, do not rate him at all. Rather just have Woodrow, Smith and Humphrys compete.

Well, I would say he was above Real Murcia current level so they were sending him on loan to Primera clubs (Granada and Eibar) and Cordoba, which was one of the better Segunda teams (5th place last season).

Yes. he doesn't seem to have made much impact for Eibar, but certainly seems to have appeared in LaLiga as recently as January this year.

I thought he was great at Schalke and had a big future, but it's not really worked out that way

Trouble is if we sign him we'll have all those idiot with their mobile phones turn up trying to catch him
