CONFIRMED Vinícius Souza

[Aston max]

Hope this is true
10 m for obrien should be next should still leave hecky with about 8m plus a couple of loans

Should leave him with 20m after 20m spent.

 

[Aston max]

Should leave him with 20m after 20m spent.

Hope you're right mate

 

[HarryHaslam]

Thought I’d seen it for around 5-6 million previously?… any road get the fucker in

 

[Broomhall Blade]

No chance he starts on sat should he join in time. Expect to see Osborn in that midfield

I might go to Meadowhall.

 

[Houso]

Hope you're right mate

Oh I don't believe it will, but 20m pre-season rumoured budget, 15m for Ndiaye 12m for Berge (using lower end figures figures), then spending Trusty 5m, Traore 5m, 20m for LoB and VJ - leaves us in the ballpark of 17m

Like I say though, it wouldn't result in that much being available (and there's signing on fees etc), but it should still be a good war chest if figures were correct and carried through.

 

[Lord Eddard Muir]

Vinicius
He's called Vinicius Souza
Says 'Burnley is for losers'
Oh baby you're Vinicius

And everyone has said the fee for Ndiaye was much higher and would allegedly be made available to Hecky in its entirety

 

[Down the Channels]

Should leave him with 20m after 20m spent.

OBrien and Akpom and one other?
Will then need some creativity in midfield, another striker and keeper cover on loan.

Gustavo Hamer, please

Still think Amissah will come good this season
Another CDM and a ACM after obrien (please)
A central defender who can play central or lhs anything after is a bonus
Still not convinced with Akpom

 

[Mattblade68]

Berge is ok when we have the ball, we won't have it this season so need some bite and energy in midfield and mobility

 

[Flatulent_Bob]

Hope this is true
10 m for obrien should be next should still leave hecky with about 8m plus a couple of loans

£10m is over priced for Obrien and basically means we’re bailing Forest out.
Fuck ‘em, if Berge is on his way we should be raising our bar and going elsewhere.

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

He'll start against Palace. He's already met the squad and watched the team. Plus, we're desperate

I think we see him as the one to make sure we're competitive in midfield in a season we expect to be up against it

10m is a big fee though and we have to get it right, at that amount

The downside for me is that he's probably less likely to stick around for the championship than a domestic signing may be

Another negative is that he surely to some extent blocks Doyle

 

[loyalblade95]

Again 48 hours is annoying we've been after him for weeks and seasons starts on Saturday, even from a PR perspective you'd think they'd want to rush it through

It doesn't mean it will take exactly 48 hours to complete, it's just a broad timeframe to say that the deal should happen anytime within the next 48 hours.

 

[loyalblade95]

Fuck ‘em, if Berge is on his way we should be raising our bar and going elsewhere.

How much did they actually pay for him, I always thought that they got him and toffolo in a double signing that cost more than the £10 million they want for him now.

 

[loyalblade95]

Nixon was saying it would be impossible for us to sign Souza about 4 days ago, so I wouldn't take him too seriously on this wage stuff.

In fairness to Nixon, we might not have been able to afford him a few days ago (given that we have to sign other players as well) without selling someone first.

 

[YES Blade]

If it works out that the Berge fee is similar to Souza then that can’t be a bad thing to basically swap them.

Ok it would be nice to have both, but we can’t let players leave for nothing.

 

[Booker4]

Next line, subject to international clearance which will take 6 weeks! Even me, a self confessed clapper, is becoming more negative with every day at present! But, at least some good news here if he arrives.

International clearance is quick, he doesn’t need a work permit like the Traoré fiasco

 

[Balti Pie]

Yes, I'd heard the double signing enabled them to use smoke and mirrors to avoid a large sell-on payment to Toffolo's previous club Or something! So both individual figures were not disclosed.

Isn't the deadline for featuring newly signed players usually the day before the match? In this case he would have to be signed and registered by Friday early afternoon.

We're bringing in Vinicius Junior?

 

[Booker4]

Berge is ok when we have the ball, we won't have it this season so need some bite and energy in midfield and mobility

Do totally agree here. That's why we need O'Brien in this midfield asap.

 

[Bladeinleeds]

This would be seemingly a decent signing

But we’re short of goals and creativity too - that needs to be addressed as the number 1 priority.

with no goals from Ndaiye, berge, mcatee and mcburnie (through injury). Our top scorer from last year is who… anel on 4!?

 

[S64 Blade]

Sounds like he’d be a good signing, but I’d be lying if I said I knew much about him or had seen him play. Seems to be the DM we’ve been crying out for, but let’s see how he adapts to playing in the premier league.

We needed him and Berge, to have a chance of staying up.

 

[SUFCinks]

Berge is ok when we have the ball, we won't have it this season so need some bite and energy in midfield and mobility

We’re going to have much less of it if he leaves. Our most composed ball playing midfielder. Keeps possession ticking nicely and looks for a pass before going long. We are already a little limited with the ball we will be new levels off wasteful hoof if we don’t replace him sadly

 

[moody1889]

Hope this is true
10 m for obrien should be next should still leave hecky with about 8m plus a couple of loans

If we pay 10m for O, Brien those in charge of our transfers need sacking never been worth 10m

Spend money United.
Don’t spend it.
We need to get deals done.
Not at that price.
United been United.
Where are new players?
Where’s money gone?
Wouldn’t pay that.

Why bother owning a football club, can't win either way...
