fox_favourite Posted 22 July 2025 Posted 22 July 2025 Norwich seem to be splashing the cash a bit. Every time I look at transfer news they seem to be linked/bidding for someone. Fair play on them.
Popular Post SafewayFox Posted 22 July 2025 Popular Post Posted 22 July 2025 I am far from JJ’s biggest fan but people putting him in the same category as Faes, Soumare etc doesn’t sit well with me. If we were a well run club, I wouldn’t even be against him having a contract extension on reduced terms, he either signs it or finds a club that pays what he thinks he’s worth. 5

He's just going to be one of those players that certain people hate now because of a really bad patch last season. They won't be able to let it go. Happens all the time. 1
Popular Post MaidstoneFox Posted 22 July 2025 Popular Post Posted 22 July 2025 I see none of the promoted clubs are signing unathletic midfielders for £20 million or journeyman players in their 30s, all on high wages. Mostly they are dipping into foreign markets signing guys in their 20s, who have some sell-on value, or don't cripple their clubs financially. Just highlights how awful our transfer business was last year 15

I’m amazed they got Kvistgaarden. Manning is a good coach too, expect them to be around the play offs.
LCFCJohn Posted 22 July 2025 Posted 22 July 2025 Louie Barry has gone to Sheffield United. Good signing for them! 2
MPH Posted 22 July 2025 Posted 22 July 2025 Haha Patrick Ageymang is out for the first few weeks of the season for Derby after having hernia surgery. 1
Lambert09 Posted 22 July 2025 Posted 22 July 2025 If wissa leaves as well, brentford definitely drop imo. There only hope was having a few players remaining with too much quality to go down but that squad has been decimated and an amateur manager has got the job. The 3 promoted sides should be licking their lips

I'll never understand that Skipp signing. Utterly ridiculous. Was worth about £5mil max. 1

Their theory seems to be about signing very tall players, though at 5ft 11in, Longstaff is big enough I suppose but not as big as Anton Stach, who is 6ft 4in.

If Skipp was about £15m max I don't think we'd have been that upset which is exactly what Longstaff is for Leeds. Got absolutely bummed by Levy mixed with Rudkinomics.

Got absolutely bummed by Levy mixed with Rudkinomics. Skipp is a £5mil player, not a £15mil one. £15mil would still be a massive overpayment, if he were to be sold this summer we would get nowhere near that, if any offers at all.
BKLFox Posted 23 July 2025 Posted 23 July 2025 Fulham interested in KDH he's surplus to requirement there now so i expect Chelsea will be pushing for his transfer. 1

His market value is prob similar to longstaff however skipp is younger and longstaff only had a year.left 2

His MV is actually €10m lower than when we sold him but your right Chelsea will want "World Club Champions" cream on top. Fulham 1 of those clubs he could go to & just have a steady, nothing fancy, premier league career i guess.

In fairness, spending a couple of years at City's academy and then, as someone eligable as a French national, getting the chance to play first team football for a Europa League side in France isn't exactly the most terrible use of 3 years is it? 1
