I would be happy if he can score 15-20 goals for us next season.

I hope you don't expect twenty league goals!

Nah mate. All tournaments He scored 15 last season for southampton so he should really score at least that much or more to justify the price.

Jerome Sinclair to Watford confirmed.

Can see him doing quite well, possibly a regret of ours in the future.

I dunno about that he hasn't exactly set the world alight at Liverpool. Not even sure he's a PL player just yet either.

 

[AFCB_Mark]

Nathan Ake from Chelsea, last at Watford, signed for the season.

Lys Mousset from Le Havre, 6.7m euro, signed ahead of Torino and Galatasaray reportidly.

One more signing to come shortly.

 

[PDS]

I have literally no idea about Mousset, but taking it second hand he sounds a real prospect, with some huge clubs interested in him.

He looks good on YouTube. Meaning he'll likely be shite.

 

[SamScfc]

Quite surprised Townsend has gone to Palace. He's guaranteed a league medal next season, Newcastle are a far bigger club and in 2 years time they'll be above Palace IMO.

 

[Skinner]

In comparison to other fees going about, £13m for a young England international is a snip.

Unfortunately I can't stand the way he plays. Interested to see how AP fits him, Zaha and Bolasie in the same side. It'll be shit if either of them are dropped for him, especially Zaha.

 

[silkyman]

City have confirmed Nolito. Other than he generally gets into double figures in goals, I don't know much about the guy.

Happy to accept that Pep Guardiola knows more about him than me.

 

[AFCB_Mark]

Ritchie to Newcastle done, 10 rising to 12m

BREAKING: Crystal Palace sign France goalkeeper Steve Mandanda on three-year contract: http://skysports.tv/WBz2S6 #SSNHQ

Good signing for them. Now come and get Benteke!

 

[Bilo]

Mandanda used to be really highly rated a few years ago. Will be interesting to see how it does. If they do get Benteke then Palace will have signed quite well this window.

That's harsh.

What do you think to Zlatan joining United, mate?

 

[Bilo]

Never rated him mate.

Everton agree £30m deal for Belgium star Axel Witsel.

Talk about overpaying for a guy who is on last year of his contract.

 

[Pagnell]

It's simply going back to Everton making all potential selling teams aware they have a lot of money to spend and for them to take advantage.

Talking about Everton, where's johnnybag? Must be getting on for a couple of weeks which is unusual for him.

The Liverpool Echo reckons that Liverpool are after Witsel too.

Bid £25mill for him according to The Guardian

[Stevencc]

Badly mismanaged at Liverpool and then found himself under the management of Klopp who didn't seem to fancy him.

Liverpool would be very happy to get a fee around 25-30m for him and I reckon he'll thrive again once he gets away from Anfield.

Hearing about Benteke news...

Aye agree with the second paragraph and he will do well someplace else. If we can get our money back all the better.

Everton have signed Maarten Stekelenburg from Fulham for an undisclosed fee. I think Koeman worked with him at Ajax and last season at Southampton. Saints fans on here didn't seem too convinced by him, and his career does seem to have nose dived since leaving Roma, I'd hope that he is back up to a more established keeper coming in. Probably the end of Joel Robles here, which is a shame as he's perfect back up material in my eyes, but Koeman clearly rates Stek so I'm happy to go along with it

 

[David Curries Mullet]

What's the appeal with Witsel? Did he even touch the ball against Wales? A defensive midfielder who doesn't tackle or offer anything creatively. Wouldn't be paying anywhere near £30 million for him.

His kicking is about the only positive I can think of. It just got to a stage where it seemed like any shot he faced that wasn't straight at him found the back of the net.

 

[Stevencc]

Mkhitaryan's done.

 

[JimJams]

He certainly has been.

 

[Nath]

Seen Dortmund's cheeky dig in their statement. They are raging about this.


Superb signing for us.
