Super Super Quality Transfer Speculation & Shit

€35m is surprisingly cheap for a Banner signing like Hulk.

Nice. Though Hulk isn't even in the b-team of superheroes in fairness.

He's pretty average

Sadly though, he's another athlete who can access Beast Mode™ at any time.

It would be an Abomination if he has the same impact that Dids had on us.

Hulk is unconvincing. For the moment, another for the Gomez group of oafs with incredible goal records.

Lukaku

Why do we delay so much when signing one player ?

Waiting Periods?

Because Man City are doping the market?

Because it's more important to get injured players back because they are like new signings?

On a serious note, I've no idea why we don't tie up deals quickly but most of our signings are quite long drawn out sagas...we do struggle to sign more established players, we got away with it last season with Arteta because he took a pay cut. That was after he forced through the move when we originally offered Everton 5 million for him and they laughed us out of town.

I agree completely. I'd just hoped you would have seen the joke.

Sorry Coney, it went over my head, I'm getting senile in my old age

Hulk's release clause is so hilarious, £100 million hahaha. If Chelsea get him for £15-20m then I reckon he'd be a good signing.

Also: Dempsey wants champions league football. Reckon we should put a bid in.

We're the only club to have made a significant signing so far aren't we? Everything else is rumour and agents gossiping. All the big names will be whoring it up at the Euros trying to add a couple of zeros to the end of their already stupid pay packets. Wouldn't imagine the last minutes stuff is always down to the club. I can certainly see a few of those puke agents stringing things out. Doubt the player wants to be hanging around on the last day either but the grubby middlemen have to be satisfied, don't they?

Genuinely - when is Arsene leaving? I thought it had been established many moons ago that it was PSG summer 2012. What happened to that? When does his current contract end? I don't want any "Waaahhh!! He's earning £6.99m more than me for doing fuck all so of course he's not going anywhere until he dies and we're in the 4th division in year 2038". I don't want any of that. I just want to know - when is he leaving?
