"My soruce tells me Fulham are circulating the following list of players they are willing to let go.

Fabrio
Hector
Kongolo
Christie
Cairney
Zambo Anguissa
Knockhaert

Any offers?"

Worrying when two of the players names are spelt wrong.

Considering the window closes, is it 5 days time?, then it would be unlikely that 2 of those are even on the list as they are not trinaing from MS's updates.

[PaulJ123]

Any other rumours going around at the minute?

Can see Zambo leaving over the weekend as well as MLM and Knocks.

For me we need a CM and a winger still

[Lordedmundo]

I find it hard to believe that we would be trying to offload one or both of Hector and Kongolo, plus Cairney who would surely not pass a medical at the moment? 

The players that we could or should offload are:

Christie or Sessegnon (loan or sell)
MLM (loan or sell)
Knockaert (loan or sell)
Fabbri (loan or sell)
Anguissa (sell to generate funds for a defensive midfielder as back for Reed)

I am sick & tired of the hype from the Copy & Paste rubbish sites of the Phil Jones story. He is a constant sick note, smacks of the RLC farce, is not needed nor wanted. Let Manure do their own dirty work & play him themselves.

[Count Flapula]

While i'm sure we do want to offload some of those players mentioned above, I think us circulating a list of those players to other clubs is an absolute load of b*****ks.

As some have already and quite rightly pointed out, some of those names won't even be training or fit before the end of the window so no chance of a sale as won't pass medicals, so why circulate their names on a list to all and sundry? Twitter rumours are worth listening to about once or twice in any hundred pumped out - and there are bloody thousands every day.

This almost certainly one of the BS ones - "reliable" journo or not. Absolutely reeks of someone putting 2 and 2 together after reading FFC supporter speculation about our FFP situation and assuming which players are most likely for sale. They are likely to be right about half to two thirds of the names on that list, but that actual list supposedly being circulated is nonsense.

[MickyAdamsFamily]

Ha!
Well done, count f, I was in the midst of writing almost the exact same thing.
As if any club would go passing around a list of players they no longer want for various and sundry to see and circulate?! Not to mention the obvious fact that a couple of those listed couldn't pass a medical before the deadline. Seems entirely fabricated.
Do I believe that some on that list may move before the deadline? Certainly, but that doesn't mean there's any truth to this story, just that the people who made it up are somewhat familiar with our roster

[Bracken White]

.... besides which a fit Cairney & Kongolo could be priceless in our quest. Find the rumour a bit rich!

[Finnans Right Peg]

These Jones rumours are gathering momentum ,personally I hope we don't sign him but will always give new players a chance

[JoeS]

Athletic saying Jones won't leave Utd this summer so can cross that one off the list.

MLM to Strasbourg sounds all but done, permanent deal according to GFFN.

[LC]

I actually wouldn't mind Phil Jones if he's fit.

He would tick the boxes we're after- he can play centre back, right back and as a defensive midfielder. He has a lot of experience as well.

No wonder this topic is called the Silly Season Summer Transfer Thread with your comment. Barking mad anyone who wants this crock.

A lot of people said that when I wanted to bring in Lingard last January..

I would absolutely take Jones, presuming United were to cover a large chunk/all his wages.

Also, chill out, it's a football forum, the idea is to share opinions.

You're entitled to your opinion.   Personally, I'm curious why you'd want us to bring in Phil when we already have Mawson and Hector, who can both be good CBs in the Championship.   And we already have an injury-prone CB in Mawson...and apparently one in Kongolo.   Why in the world would you take a chance on a 3rd, who has no future with the club?

If we were thinking of selling three players out of Hector, MLM, Ream, Odoi, Christie, and Anguissa; then it makes sense to bring in someone (like Phil Jones) that can cover center-back, right-back, and defensive midfield. The Reality is that none of the players out of Hector, MLM, Ream, Odoi, and Christie will ever play Premier League again; so one utility defender maybe enough to replace a couple of them and the sale will raise some money.

And when you make that investment...and said player is out for two months due to injury. Again...why PHIL JONES?   I'm not saying someone like Phil Jones whose way more physically reliable, wouldn't be a good idea.   Phil Jones is a poor choice.   And are you planning to start him over Tosin and Ream?  ManUtd won't loan him to be a sub.

I wouldn't hesitate to play a "fully fit Phil Jones" ahead of "Tim Ream", although I doubt Phil Jones can stay fit.

Again, if everyone read my original post, I said I would take him if he's fit.

Did you not have a go at WSW for in your own opinion "being a fantasist" giving us transfer news, and yet here you are taking people on the ultimate FFC WUM forum (where you can set your name to mimic people) as an "accurate" source of transfer news when the person can't even spell the players names?

Do I not provide a source for my information? Stating where I get it?

Your precious WSW was posting about Wilder/Cooper while that TFI guy was saying Silva.

Put me on ignore

[Lighthouse]

It is all speculation until its official. So the amount of truly reliable nonsense continues and is welcome to pass the time. But let's not pretend it means much until the smoke is seen from Cottage chimney and band strikes up.

All good fun but to be taken with a large pinch of 'heard from someone inside the club'.

Who is Fabrio? Who is Knockhaert? I seriously doubt our club are circulating any sort of list but to include two injured players and two meaningless names is beyond belief. If that's what your "source" told you then I suggest you put him or her on ignore!

It's just a guy that posts on TFI so not even a source it's just a copy of someone else's post.

[Ronnief]

In case anyone want's to know the correct spellings the names are Anthony Knockaert and Fabricio Agosto Ramirez known as Fabri  and our new striker is named Rodrigo Muniz Carvalho known as Rodrigo Muniz or Rodders to his mates.092.gif

Is 89 the lowest number of pages for a Transfer window?
