Personally don't believe in this big European clamour for Berge, after all last summer it was Club Brugge he was supposedly going to.

He's just not THAT good, he's too hot and cold, has struggled in the Championship a lot at times, still hasn't really proven himself in the Premier League either.

Problem is all the rest of our players are either kids or has beens.

Absolute shit show at the moment, other Premiership clubs must be laughing their heads off at us.

We’re going to end up playing Palace with the team we feared we’d of had if we’d not been promoted.

I agree with all that. The worrying part is how highly PH clearly rates him. I’d find it hard to believe he would get behind selling him.

Yeah agreed. I don't have an issue with selling Berge, even to Burnley (watch him finally unlock his potential mind), the issue is we don't even look close to signing replacements for anyone we've lost this summer, and that includes Doyle/Macca

Do you honestly think anyone of them will upgrade on the exits. 4 is no where near enough.

Traore - poor man’s Ndaiye
Slimani - poor man’s Berge
Larauce - squad fill replacement for stevens
Trusty - upgrade on JLT (maybe?)
Doyle - ?
Mcatee - ?
Khadra - ?
Berge - ?
Sharp -?
Fleck - ? Broken leg
mcburnie - out for however long

The squad as it stands would have a battle to stay up in the championship. I’ve never seen a promoted team do this - weaken themselves so completely and claim to still be competing

We are worse across the board at every potion in terms of strength and depth..

I’d be surprised if anyone wants to join a clubs that’s signing up to be pounded week after week.

I think you have written off the 4 who have arrived without giving them a chance. Much as some did with Macatee

I know, right. Prince and his minions should be ashamed of the support the players and management have been given

Best to judge all of this in September.
 
Looking forward to amusing Burnley sign up tweet
 
Hes not going to sign another contract and although I'll be sad if he goes, if it's good wonga then sell him, but we must have several players in that are half capable before the window shuts.

Not chucking my dummy out yet, but I might come September.

Fingers crossed that the club know what they're doing.

None of the signings have any realistic expectations attached - they fall into the class of punts I was pretty happy with to improve the overall squad. Mcatee came with the realistic Expectations Of improving the 12


Not starters because we’ve no options as we’ve sold anything not nailed down.

The squad is Much weaker than last year across the board

Wow, this is just crazy.

Berge to Burnley, I thought he had ambishun. It just doesn't make sense on any level, unless he has seen the total mess we are in & wants out to anywhere, but he didn't seem the type to me.

And why the fuck would we let him go without getting at least one replacement in

If this happens it makes my last post in the "beat Derby thread" redundant.

You know, I did wonder when I read that...

What is the obsession with September? The season starts Saturday

We have known from the outset that any quality loans would come at the end of the window, so there is nothing new there.
I would rather we had the right players in by September than load ourselves with poor quality just because the season starts before the window closes.
The first break comes after 4 matches, so if by the 5th match we don’t have a decent squad settled in then we are in a mess. Until then I will remain confident in what the management is doing.

Darren Smith speculates that any deal will include an agreement that Burnley step away from the Souza race. The way we're doing business, I wouldn't be shocked if the deal was us agreeing to step back from it. Fuck sake.

They might agree to do so, but (a) another club other than Burnley could come in (b) he might not want to join us
 
CaptainMorgans said:
Bear in mind we've already lost Ndiaye, Doyle & McAtee from last season. Berge next?

We've gone miles backwards... we should be bringing those players in without sales.

If we're selling players (and I don't disagree with selling some for future-proofing) they should be in addition to those guys.

I agree by the way.
I have always been a huge fan of Berge and don't want to see him go.
But my worry is that we are so skint we'll end up with a midfield of Berge, Norwood, Slimane (totally unproven) and very little back up.

Don’t give a shit about palace forest Everton.

Even bringing players in now is too late. How quickly will they settle in. Not got a solid 11 to hold it together until they do.

Sick of the horseshit

It is at present, I agree. What is vital is what it looks like when the window closes.

What if another club wants to buy Souza?! Can we sell them Brewster on the same basis please?
