The Official Silly Season Summer Transfer Thread 2018/19

[MJG]

I care and I am not sure we should be paying 20m or north of that for Mitro. He was a hero
last season but is unproven in the prem.

10 goals in 40 PL games in what really equates to 25 full games.
Maybe not proven over two or three years but if he gets ten plus goals for us then that's a good return.

Mike you are taking average game time I assume?  Not a bad return but definitely not the finished article. I was fine when we were talking 16 - 18m but 22m seriously?

total time played across the 40 times he's played for NCU in PL.

Does anyone know what the latest is with Mawson?

[LRCN]

Does anyone know what the latest is with Mawson?

terms agreed, finances basically there with some discussion on add ons. talk of another club making a higher offer today but he'd still prefer to come to us. seems him and mitro will be done by wednesday

Tierney rumours are sending Celtic fans on twitter into meltdown, I'd love him to leave just to shut them up

[Woolly Mammoth]

Kieron Tierney would be far better off playing for Fulham in a real high quality League, where there is a proper challenge.
Not playing Mickey Mouse football against limited opponents every week for three cheap points.
No disrespect meant to the other teams in their leagues.
But it's an uneven playing field.

[General]

Isnt Tierney meant to be super good? And one of the best young prospects around?

Yep.
Wow we're certainly shopping in Selfridges for our players this window.
We've spent - what, about 52m so far? How much more do people expect Fulham to spend this window. Another 100m?!? Still so many gaps to fill!

How on earth did you conjure up 52 million for our signings so far? You are as bad as a 10 yr old journalist.

Widely quoted Seri and LM were 30, Fabri 5-5.4million - how do you figure a two year loan deal is worth £16-£17m?

Clueless AF.

You have lost me there - how can you completely rubbish them and then say no disrespect in the same breath?

Ridiculously harsh response.

A 2 year loan deal for a 27 year old on a 3 year contract is almost like buying the player so if you think it would have been cheap then you are "clueless AF". Maybe it wasn't as much as he said but all our deals thus far have been undisclosed so you don't know, do you. Maybe he's factoring in £20m for Mitro in anticipation of that being confirmed very soon.

I just assumed he was factoring Mitrovic into it. 30 for Seri and Le Marchand, 5 for Fabri, 20 ish for Mitrovic would mean we've spent 55. And then we're supposedly about to fork out another 20-25 on Mawson. Could touch 100mill if we're spending "Tierney money" on a Left-Back.

We are paying Wages over Two years.If we bought him for x we would still have his wages to consider.Whats not to like from that deal.Who's saying were paying all his wages?

[AllyWhite]

Not sure if anyone's mentioned, but both ESPN and Sky are reporting Mawson, with ESPN saying that 'Fulham in pole position'

Half the price of a Tierney.  Good move if we can get him back.  Spending 25m on a left back would be bonkers.

I agree 100%

[bornafulhamfan]

What about Alberto Moreno. He is out of favor at Liverpool for couple of seasons.

[Mince n Tatties]

Tierney is rated by Celtic at that price,they'll never get that for him, more like 10-12 million would be good enough.

[DevonFFC]

Just No

[Deeping_white]

Would rather pay the extra money for Tierney than pay £10m+ for Targett as I think Tierney will turn out to be the better player so we'd recoup the money, plus I have some doubts over Targett's pace and physical capabilities being exposed in the PL
