RC, this is incorrect...

T-shirt purchasers only on this thread I’m afraid, and sadly the initial run of these has been sold. You’re welcome to still cough up for the raffle though, for charity. One lucky winner gets a t-shirt – at which point feel free to contribute to this thread. PM me with how you’d like to send me the funds (for charity).

Right so, I know there’s probably about a 1% chance of all this coming off but let’s dream for a minute

Henderson £2m loan fee
Osborn £3.5m
Jagielke Free
Morrison Free
Robinson £7m
Freeman £5.5m
Mousett £8m (Guess)
Maupay £16m
McBurnie £16m

We’ll be spending £58m on fees right there. Add in the money for a big name foreign signing at we’re probably topping £70m.

Obviously it will almost certainly not all happen but fuck me what’s happened to our club

We would be blessed with rhymes to start the "follow follow" chant again

Sharpy and Maupay,
Dids and Mcburnie/Mousett,
And Cristiano Ronaladooooo (big foreign name)

 

[blademark]

McGoldrick, McBurnie, Maupay, Mousset,
Mmmmmmm.

The floor is yours

Banana hasn’t revealed anything, never given an ounce of in the know info.
All he ever does is repeat the newspaper reports from weeks ago saying the price is 20 million + addons and no bids made.

Think he’s getting his updates from the local newspaper lol.

[FallowfieldBlade]

“He wants to see what other offers he gets” “I think he wants to come to us”
“He’d also like to go to West Ham and Villa”.

Quite a confusing response. If he wanted to come to us he would have by now providing the information is correct regarding the fee being agreed.

If you were in maupays position what would you do go to the first offer or wait to see who wants to sign him, not all players are unitedites.

Sure maupay is keen to move to us but is waiting to see waht other offers are on the table nowt wrong with that

 

[Bladeinleeds]

Hang on a minute before we all go striker crazy.
Cant see how we're going to try and sign Robinson, Mousett, Maupay and McBurnie to add to Sharp and McGoldrick?! (and that's on the assumption that Clarke and Evans are definitely leaving too).
That'll basically give us 6 strikers which appears a little top heavy to me (don't get me wrong what with injuries, suspensions etc. it's good to have plenty of options but imagine trying to keep 6 of them happy!)
Now I know Warnock liked his strikers but I just cant see Sir Chris going for 6 and if anything he'll be looking at 5 max surely??

Maupay is gone! That much should be obvious with the interest on mousett

But 5 with positional flexibility seems about right to me. Evans and Clark will leave for sure.

Not bad for a £20 Million budget.

Many thanks for your time and information. I assume from reading the latter part of the post that you, like me, feel that the Prince will win the court case?

Do you? What makes you think that?

 

[derryblade]

Update. As stated previously the interest in Mousset was strong, appears things have moved quickly there. On Maupay, whatever these Brentford fans may say, the fee is agreed with Brentford and he is free to talk to the club and others, it’s a waiting game and his agent is doing what agents do, playing one club off against another for the best deal for the player and himself. The interest in McBurnie is very, very serious and it’s hoped a deal will be reached. Osborn isn’t far off at all. Henderson is sorted absolutely nothing to worry about. It also appears the Prince would like Wilder to sign a big foreign name. So with all the above, it appears we might be splashing more cash than anyone anticipated.

That wish list is going to cost a serious wedge, transfer fees and wages, time will tell.

 

[Pinchy]

I have only one complaint about Richard Cadette. Richard Cadette. Richard Fucking Cadette.

If it's the big foreign name he was on about before, I can't see that one coming off to be honest...

Fantasy Football stuff.

Probably depends on how much Real Madrid are asking for him for a loan fee I reckon. I think Wilder’s just the man to get him back in form though, and he could play about 4 different positions in our system.

 

[Linz]

Podolski

Nah.

And it must be another name because the one mooted before because that one has recently gone to China.

Hamsik?

 

[s4-blade]

The insinuation that the prince is suggesting which big name player to buy doesn’t sit well with me. If he gives wilder the money and tell him to chose one then fine, but telling wilder which player to sign? Nah not for me, it will just be another Ched Evans but 10 times the cost.

 

[Bramhall Lane blade]

I think we need at least 1 experienced defensive midfielder,most seem to think Norwood and Fleck are good enough for prem but they are both unproven.if they both struggle we could be in big trouble.

I completely agree but it’s been around 3 weeks now. How long do we wait in the hope that we’ll still be his preferred options. The longer his deliberation goes on it’s obvious he’s waiting for a more attractive offer/ better established premier league club.

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

Wilder has said on numerous occasions before he decides which players he wants, non story IMO
