The Unreliable Transfer Rumours Discussion Thread (Part 5)

Really thought we would be seeing bids accepted for players by now.

Woefully short and times running out

If nobody moans from now, it’s going to be a very quiet couple of days on here.

I’ll tell @ISMF to double-check the servers are able to handle the load.

to be honest, i think alot of the meritted criticism just get the ā€˜scapegoat’ treatment.

on here at least, i know there was frustration, but never really saw it go into abuse, and the rallying support is louder than the boos TBH.

even in his darkest onfield moments last season ( and they were pretty dark), my coment was that Slot needs to protect him, bench him, then let him reset… instead he just got played over and over and over, its terrible man management… Houllier did the same to Hesky all those years ago… sometimes players run into some really bad form and they just need a reset

I think the current mood is goes well beyond ā€˜questioning’.

If Mama’s camp is looking for a move away. I can understand why, as he has yet to convince that he should be Alissons replacement next year, if Alisson does move on then. I’m just surprised they left it this late in the window to push for it.

Can’t we just made Iraola incharge of transfers atleast for this summer and Hughes could have just left early? He has literally put us 3 years behind.

Indeed, the timing of it is quite fascinating.

I’m guessing it means Liverpool have everything else under control, when they find the time to do this type of deal this late in the window.

Hopefully we get a few more Here we go’s the next day or two :eyes:

I agree some have a tendency to go overboard but some serious questioning is needed given we’ve not done what we need to but have found time and money to spend Ā£30m on a kid with four first team appearances.

Here we go from Fabrizio Romano. I guess this sounds like the beginning of the end of the career with LFC for Jaros and/or Marma and possibly Pecsi…

The Marma situation is an all round poor judgement from Hughes and the data guys and the scouts. How the fuck did the scouts, the data guys fail to see that Marma’s distribution and positioning is poor for sweeper keeper. How the fuck did Hughes sign it all off???

I can see the logic in this.

Mamardashvili was probably sold on the idea he’d be taking over from Alisson for this season, but has been really disappointing and hasn’t done anything to claim that shirt.

I can understand his annoyance at another year on the bench, so it’s probably best to let him go if he wants to.

Just seems odd as we’ve been pleading poverty all summer.

Well that’s the window and season saved, a backup keeper for a years time :joy:

He’s apparently played 15 games - anyone seen 10 of them to give an opinion?

This is from a year ago, but a little bit to get to know him:

I totally agree with that, however I think it wouldn’t hurt some people (not just here, and certainly not you Rab) to remember in the midst of their criticism that this is a harder process than we sometimes acknowledge, they almost certainly don’t have the skills or ability to do it better, and there is absolutely no need to get personal.

Any signings for this summer Richard or are you keeping the fans N’Guessan?

Quick Google - career stats of 9 matches, 0 goals, 0 assists so no one can comment having watched 10 matches :sweat_smile:

We appear to have entered the spending any left over budget on wonderkids phase of the Football Manager save :joy:
