Stickied Transfer Rumours & Confirmed Deals Thread 2023/24

[CharlieAdamno1Fan]

With the team safe from relegation by Christmas for the first time since who knows when , I wouldn’t rule anyone out being sold.

What is the main goal at City, bring in cheap kids & sell sell sell.

Until the window shuts I think anything can happen

Kodjia basically refused to play and wanted out, by the looks of it Brownhill doesn't want out so very different situations. The supposed lowest price we were considering for Flint in the summer was £6m, do you think that's only gone up by £2m? Given its January and Bailey Wright is playing RB so no obvious replacement to standard (Mags being left footed). LJ rates Bryan insanely highly and England have supposedly been watching him with interest, no way we sell him for under £10m and again especially in January when fees are bloated. Reid has a 1 year extension clause we can activate so not ooc.

There will still be interest in our players in the summer, yes we may not get as much but I can't see Lansdown insisting we sell players in January and risk that being the cause of us falling off the pace.

No way have England been watching Bryan. Miles down the pecking order.

Would be a weird thing for our manager to make up, especially when he said he's had conversations with Southgate about Joe.

Pinocchio will be begging Barry Douglas to swap his allegiance to England before he asks Joe Bryan

Here’s the article

Joe Bryan faces the same problem as Barry Douglas in regards to Scotland. As Kris Boyd recently said, currently the 3 best Scottish players are all left backs. Keiran Tierney, Andrew Robertson and Barry Douglas. It's astounding that Douglas hasn't got a call up yet.

Could simply be knowing of England eligible players who could move to the premier league in January. As said above don't see why Johnson would say it if untrue it would be a massive egg on face scenario for Southgate to come out and say he hasn't.

Linked to an 18yr old striker from Hartlepool, Connor Simpson, £65k the rumoured fee.

Doyle to Scunthorpe and John Welsh to AFC Fylde rumoured outgoings. Welsh is too good for that level but Fylde pay good money.

17 year old 6ft5 left footer, scored on his Pools debut this season and was a real handful, been on trial at West Ham, came back and hasn't featured since, been wrapped in cotton wool by the board who are desperate to sell (massively in debt) £65k is a steal, he deserves a lot better than our club.

If it happens then hopefully you get a good sell on and a reasonable deal, good club Hartlepool, shame to see you in the shit.

Sounds a really good prospect.

Makes perfect sense for a manager to say, helps drive up interest and the asking price.

England keeping tabs on him, and Johnson mentioning him to Southgate are very different things.

Wouldnt say hes miles down the order.
Best English LB outside the Prem and probably better than 1 or 2 in it.

Danny Rose
Ryan Cresswell
Luke Shaw
Ryan Bertrand
Ashley Young
James Milner
Leighton Baines
Charlie Daniels
Kieren Gibbs

Maybe even:
Ben Chilwell
Josh Tymon
Matthew Targett

And I’m sure I’ve missed a couple too.

Would all be above him in the pecking order. He’s got a couple of challengers to “best English LB outside the Prem” too.
Ryan Sessengnon for a start! Our Rico Henry would also have something to say about that.

 

[JJH]

Rico Henry 'kin hell

 

[JonBCFC]

Rico Henry hahahaha I knew as soon as he started it would result in him bigging up his own player

He's better than Sessegnon at this point in time, though Sessegnon has higher potential.
And both are streets ahead of Henry.

Well I think we can cross one player off that list

Can comfortably say he outshone Luke Shaw by some margin on Wednesday.
Not saying Bryan is a better player than Luke Shaw mind, but what a performance!

Yes, the ridiculous thing in this thread is me comparing Joe Bryan to Rico Henry, not you guys saying Joe Bryan is in contention for an England call up.

To be fair MB, the calls for JB to be recognised came from little Lee. if and when he leaves for a truly big club, it wouldn't be totally mad but I don't see it happening while he's with us. Maybe the Jocks might ask but not the English national side.

Johnson said they're watching him and he's had a chat with Southgate, not us.

Rico Henry though I'm still laughing at that, your properly fancy yourself MagpieBee.

I’m not saying Rico Henry is a world beater, I am saying he’s just as good as Joe Bryan. I’m also saying I don’t think Joe Bryan is anywhere near as good as any of you lot say.

Johnson said England were watching him, and you all ran over yourselves to put it on a forum and tell everyone else their own players are shit.

Rico Henry has never got near the level of performances Bryan has put in this season at this level, you chat shite and as I said you massively fancy yourself.

Someone mentioned it, it's a proud achievement if what Johnson is saying is right. Stop being so precious, two club weirdo.

Sorry everyone, I forgot that daring to suggest any Bristol City players aren’t as good as they say they are makes you a weirdo, “precious” and means I fancy myself (whatever that means), regardless of how ridiculous the claims may be.

It’s not just Bryan though is it. You do it to all our players. You constantly tell us that position wise whatever player it may be, you’d have yours because they are apparently the better player yet we sit 4th in the champ and you’re 12th

Clearly you have an agenda against bristol city, and it’s getting embarrassing now.

 

[Madejski]

Stam has said that we won't have much money to spend in January.. well and truly wasted our large budget in the Summer

Strong rumours of Liam Moore leaving, linked with Celtic, Stoke and West Ham. Hopefully we can hold out for £10m if true. Our defence would fall to even more pieces without him.

That’s frankly ridiculous mate. I don’t rate Flint, we’ve all had loads of discussions about Flint, my opinion hasn’t changed. But that’s about it?

I’m not saying Bryan is bad for fucks sake. I’m saying he’s not England-level quality, which isn’t a ridiculous suggestion at all, don’t see why I’m getting slated for it!

I said Henry is about as good as Bryan, and I think he is.

It’s obvious you guys have plenty of players better than ours, the amount you can spend on a single player compared to us is ridiculous. I would take Diedhou and a few others in a heartbeat. There’s easily a couple of other players who would get in our team. I don’t think you guys would say that about many or any of our players, and if you want to play the league table argument, we finished above you both of the last two seasons, with largely similar squads to what we have now?

Dont fucking lie.
I said he wasnt "miles away" he is certainly down the list, but that is, IMO partly because he is at Bristol City, his performances this season have been good enough for Premier League sides.
No one came running on here to say your players were shit, it was said Henry isn't as good as Bryan, after you said he was as good as him.
