Summer Transfer Gossip.

Clearly Fonte is rated so badly by you, you've named him twice!!

LOL, yes I think he is a complete waste of space, must have been subconscious. I've edited it.

[S.F.Sorrow]

Should be noted when signing a free agent now it's likely they would be unfit so wouldn't make an immediate impact

Unfit and no impact, like the majority of the owner sons signings.

False yet again.

I wish I could agree with you, but if I did we would both be wrong.

Shall we list out every TK transfer, and see who was a success and a failure?

Let's us save time and list the ones who were a success. As the failures would take far too long, and many of them are forgotten as they either never ended up playing a game, or very little, as they were shocking signings who we either cannot move on, or were let go, so I don't know which was worse, the financial costs of these failures or the cost on the field of play. His record is atrocious, and unforgivable in the cold light of day.

Some people on this site really do exaggerate. His record is atrocious? So bad that we got promoted in our last Championship season, and reached the playoffs the year before. Here are some (not all) successful transfers, others may yet prove successful (e.g. Bryan, Mawson):

Scott Malone
Sone Aluko
Tomas Kalas
Stefan Johansen
Kevin McDonald
Floyd Ayite
Lucas Piazon
Matt Targett
Aleksander Mitrovic
Calum Chambers

Too early to judge Cavaleiro or Knockaert of course.

I don't have the time to look up all the dates so please forgive me if I'm wrong but wasn't Malone, Aluko, Johansen, McDonald and Ayite signed before TK was appointed DoF?  I think they were Rigg's signings? Plus Mitro was obviously happening because of Jokanovic.

Then there's of course the others from the previous 2 seasons:

Djalo
Cisse
Fonte
Soares
Graham
Seri
Fabri
Anguissa
Markovic
Schurrle
Fosu-Mensah
Vietto
Nordtveit
Fonte

All of these were either complete failures or not worth anywhere near what we paid for them IMO.

To be fair there were some decent signings for 2017/18 but most of them were loans. TKs big money signings have all been massive disappointments IMO.

The myth that Mitrovic was all about Slav has been debunked so many times now.....he stated it again on his recent podcast so even me, whose critical of TK give him Mitrovic as a success.

Which podcast are you referring to?

Offically, but was running the transfer side of things at the time.

[Fulham Tup North]

That's all very lovely, but are there any transfer rumours to talk about rather than bitching at each other about who signed who! It's getting tedious and quite frankly boring now.
I will be glad when the damn window is shut. 🤪🙏🙏

Carl jenkinson going Forest, RB we could have done with

He's done very little over the last few years, and despite that will be on decent wages I expect.
Could prove me wrong but don't see him as much of an upgrade on Christie truthfully

Tough one. I have a feeling he could end up like Evertons Luke Garbett. Primed to be the next big thing and just struggle to find his feet. Maybe I'm wrong.

Clearly Fonte is rated so badly by you, you've named him twice!!

Not up to the English game, unbelievably Jol lied to him to get him to sign, he told him that Fulham would be playing in the Champions League; if only he had told him the truth we wouldn't be lumbered with him.

Thought that was Ruiz, jol wasn't involved with FFC by Fonte's signing

This Topic page is getting pathetic. If the posters who insist in trading handbags want to carry on I suggest they open a handbag topic all to themselves.

If you create it, they will come...

Anguissa's purchase option is apparently €25m.
Seri's has previously been stated as €18m.

If the pound keeps falling, we may even make a profit in that case haha!

Agreed, I treat every signing from summer 2016 onwards as TK's, except Mitrovic obviously

Also we were in for McDonald the summer before under Rigg so that one is questionable

On Mitro he was a target in jan 17 so I dont think you can pick and choose like that...although I know you will.

Fulham just tweeted some training pictures and one player (with his back to the camera) looks suspiciously like Harry Arter. The post is now deleted.

Yes you're right, my mistake.
