Also, Hart's reflexes and decision making has drastically gone down over the last 3 years. There's a reason Pep took one look at him and decided to ship him off, and it wasn't just his distribution. Not sure how else it can be said, other than Moyes preferred Adrian to him for a good 3 or 4 months of the season.

Harts problem seems to be when he needs to perform the pressure gets to him and he makes a bad decision, so since city dropped him he felt pressure to perform and cocks up like he did for England getting to pumped up and then performs badly,

"Fabri has been pictured at Heathrow Airport ahead of his move to Fulham".




Apart from Fabri and Mitro deals hopefully being completed this week.
We may find up to another three quality players potentially arriving subject to medical by around next Monday 30th give or take.
Fingers crossed.


Is that speculation/wishful thinking or have you heard trumpeting across the tundra?

Yes I have to admit that my trunk can trumpet, but I have my information. Which is reliable, but no names no pack drill at this current moment, but no this is not speculation or rumour, that's not my style.
The only problem I have is that Fulham as is well known, drag their feet so frustratingly at times, and not always to their advantage, it can be difficult to forecast when and where.
I shall keep you informed of any further developments.



Are you able to give us any information on who those players might be?

Yes, however to be fair, not for at least 48 hours.
Its not the man in the fight, it's the fight in the man.  🐘

So the Tuesday 6PM news with Woolly will be the unveiling of our targets :-)

Not at 6pm, I shall be in the Gym pumping iron, and I did state at least 48 hours.
But i shall reveal at the right time when there is no risk of anything going wrong, as naturally I do not wish to misinform as Fulham are so unpredictable and inefficient.

Are they players that we've been publicly linked to, or just completely left field ones?

We have been linked to almost every player worth being linked to. That is because even the best journalists do not have the advantage of my informants, that is why the media know no more than the average supporter, hearsay, third party and circumstantial evidence never won a coconut.
I am just as exited as you.
But as we have waited this long, a few more days will not do any harm.

Fulham are unpredictable and inefficient.  So you have your excuse for non signings already prepared.

And if pigs had wings they may fly.
Sorry Woolly but we have had so many false promises this summer that I am no longer receptive to exciting rumours. How many times has it been posted that Mitrovic is about to sign.

I much prefer our transfer business generally being under the radar. Saves wasting time following all the gossip sources.

Not been linked with him, but I was talking to a Chelsea supporting friend earlier and it got me thinking. Malcom 99% won't happen, and we need to sign a RW. We could do a lot worse than try and sign Andre Schurrle. Dortmund don't really fancy him/he hasn't really performed for them, he's proven in the Prem (unfortunately as we found out in our relegation season), he's still "only" 27 so he's a good age as well with potential re-sale value if we get him back on form as well. Plus he'd be a reasonable fee because of said Dortmund not fancying him/him not performing.

Tony Khan might be taking suggestions from this thread if you want to chuck a name into the hat.

Wolves are supposedly signing Adama Traore. Be interested to see if that means anything for Cavaleiro.

Hart is a top goalie,want be the first of them to have lost his confidence along the way,then bounced back.

I disagree. Hart isn't a very good keeper. His handling and decision-making are too poor for the Premier League.

Well everyone has their opinion.
Don't think City would have bought him and won England caps if he was a bad keeper...Lost confidence in any walk of life is difficult.

It's not lost confidence, it's decline.

You might be right Ejl,but I think its a confidence thing with him,he still young for a keeper (31),and I think he will bounce back and prove a few wrong.

He will bounce back because he is made of rubber.
