Summer Transfer Gossip.

[Riversider]

One player that we've all forgotten about is Scott Dann, we were heavily linked in January but no mention all summer,
Hector and Dann in and that's centre back well and truly covered,
Now for right back and midfield 👍🏻

Dann is 32 now and only played 660 minutes last season in the prem - about 7.5 games. Firstly, he's old and would mean we'd be looking for a replacement within a year or two and also if we're purchasing a new player, wouldn't we rather somebody who had played the entirety of last season for their club? Or were you suggesting we buy him as purely a back-up?

He had an injury last season

Welsh News saying 10 million bid in for Cardiff keeper Neil Etheridge,from another Championship side.
Us I wonder.

Could be us; could be Leeds or maybe Huddersfield??? Who else has cash???

[Mince n Tatties]

Only thing if it is us could mean that Betts is on his way to Bournemouth.

[Woolly Mammoth]

I doubt it's Fulham

Only till December 2018 by the looks of it - but to be fair, probably struggled to break back into the first team at that stage in the season. I'd still prefer somebody younger I think but I can see why you think he'd be useful in the squad

[Texas White]

Agreed. Venting frustration at TK at every turn is very tedious !

Yes i am sure it's impossible to get people to commit. Agents want to try and milk it to the last second.

I hope not, I'd rather spend money on defence and midfield. Whilst he has done ok the last two seasons, I wouldn't say we are as desperate for an upgrade in that department as we are for CB, CM and RB.

I know people will have their own opinions, but I think Betts is a safe set of hands at this level. He played well second half of our promotion winning season when we went undefeated and made some crucial saves. I remember a one on one v Leeds, which we went on to win.

[grandad]

Etheridge made quite a few cock ups last season. Betts is much better.

[Woolly Mammoth]

Agreed Betts is good enough, we don't need to waste money on a new keeper, there are far more reasons to spend money on the defence and to a lesser extent midfield.

 would have thought it may be Leeds as Burnley have put a bid in for Peacock-Farrell

oh and why havent we signed Joe Hart yet

[twang]

Fabri could be on his way to newly promoted Gazisehir Gaziantep FK according to Turkish media:

In no world is Bettinelli better than Etheridge.

Gosh, almost forgot about JOE HART.

Err, he is in my world.

Take Betts any day, don't need Etheridge, don't want Etheridge.

Err, he is in my world.

So why is no one lining up a £10m bid for Bettinelli? Why did 1 perform to a high level last season, winning Cardiff multiple games himself, and the other sit on the bench.

I don't want Etheridge, his distribution is as bad as Bettinelli's. But doesn't retract that he's a better goalkeeper.

Err, he is in my world.

They're both decent but Betts more than capable. I don't think it's an area we need to be spending £10m & showing no significant improvement.
