Player Suggestion Ugurcan Cakir

[BarryBigtime]

Deal must be close, he's signed up for his Electric, Gas and Water

Ahahaha brilliant.

On a relatable note. I lived in the same apartment block as Ched and Henri Camara back in 2009/10. All their bills and rent were paid for by the club. Henri's electricity bill was apparently £700 a month. Mine was a measly £30 for context. Apparently he liked it "to feel like Senegal".

I rate that they've used a real utility companies sign up form, it's just a shame they used one from Sheffield, Alabama

Why would they go to such lengths for a nothing more than a wind up to not even a rival club?

Fkin crackers. Nowt better to do

According to a mate in who. Work at the lane. ....everything agreed just waiting for confirmation of Henderson’s situation at manure

Bizarre approach if so - agree deal with club and player then tell them both to hold fire while we check what’s happening with Henderson... surely we’ve made our mind up if we’ve agreed terms?

Not sure why we would wait for henderson when we can buy our own keeper

Maybe Hendo means Wilder has more transfer funds available as deal comes out of wage budget. Next year we maybe able to attract someone better than Ramsdale.

 

[Blade58]

Possibly to free up cash for a striker?

Then buy a keeper the following season

I’d like to think we’d have the budget for a permanent keeper and a striker. Unless Wilder is eyeing up a recording breaking transfer fee for a striker?

Thats my only reservation.
I want our own keeper like everyone else but we have to prioritise.

only repeating what I’ve been told...and FYI this scenario happens with most transfers..everything agreed in advance then deal gets done dependant on other circumstances / targets etc .... ..always been the case

Yeh it seems a bit like buying and selling a house when there’s a chain involved, pain in the arse but that’s the way it is.

Lovely bit of clickbait from the Star. Thank fuck I didn't click on the link on Newsnow and give them another penny from the 47 clicks and impressions it takes to get to the (non) story.

Ashamed to say that unfortunately i am that person.

Let's get it reyt from't start shall we?

 

[Sheepstone]

From what I've seen from this YouTube clip we will have to be prepared for a lot of corners against us, although he does look very agile

It'd be a laugh if he turned out to be useless at corners after seeing that video

 

[Sheepstone]

Yes, I would hope a £20m goalie could actually catch a ball. Time will tell (if we get him).

 

[Liaminho9]

From what I've seen from this YouTube clip we will have to be prepared for a lot of corners against us, although he does look very agile

I’d rather he pushed the ball out for a corner than into open play danger areas.

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

I wish someone made a video of all the goals he let in... That would be much more useful.

Would be of similar use to someone making YouTube highlights of all the pies Higdon ate 5 years ago to go alongside his scoring montage.

 

[Harrisblade]

In fact, have we had any particular problems this season with corners (defending them not scoring from 'em)
Because if we haven't I reckon that would be more down to our outfield players than any special skills from Hendo

Just shows you can't believe half you read in them Turkish newspapers. I stopped having them delivered ages ago and have gone back to the Beano and Dandy now.

This article confuses me he says "a source" close to the deal but then just quotes the president who said no contact several days ago. And due to many Trabzonspor fans saying the president is lying who knows what the actual fuck is going on ATM.

 

[Torrix1889]

To be honest I can't see us blowing £20m of our budget on a GK, unless we sell a few first, (Lunny & C Robinson should raise £12m to £15m).

 

[Champagneblade]

I still haven't seen a last minute alternative for Hendo.

Seriously, where does he go? Which PL team is also keeping their no 1 slot open for him?

These unsuccessful bids to me are a smokescreen to show we are quite capable of looking elsewhere.

It's not like midfield or attack, where you get game to game rotation.

What are his or their options of the 19 other clubs?

Rivals, so Man U won't loan (5) - Liverpool, Man City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs.

Already have established 1st choice Keeper (11) - Wolves (Patricio), Leicester (Schmeichel), Burnley (Pope), Everton (Pickford), Newcastle (Dubrovka), Palace (Guaita), Brighton (Ryan), Leeds (Mesler/Casilla), WBA (Johnstone), Villa (Heaton), West Ham (Fabianski/Randolph)

Others - Southampton (Gunn, McCarthy, Forster already there), Fulham (Rodac)

I can't see Southampton taking in another keeper. If anything, they will offload one. West Ham had injury issues but Fabianski was doing well and Randolph is an excellent keeper. Leeds just signed their loanee keeper. So the only option left is Fulham. If I'm not mistaken, Rodak is same age as Hendo and highly rated. On their boards I saw no fans clamouring for a keeper.

So in summary, unless he returns to us, I don't see many vacancies and get may be forced to stick at OT and OGS seems to want him to get games. This could backfire and the main loser will be Hendo.

Watched the whole VT and barring a couple, and they were debateable, I'm not quite sure what else he could've done with the shots he was facing.

My concern with the VT was how many seem to be parried back into the danger zone.

I've expressed my views earlier in the thread but a lot of his saves are very "Hendersonesque" and he looks very agile with great positioning and a great shot stopper.

that’s how transfers work...nowt is ever clear cut....

Think I've said it on other GK related threads but I'd seriously be looking at Forster. He's available for £6m apparently. Wages might be mightily high but there's ways round that issue to ensure squad harmony. Signing on fee, image rights etc.

If he's still 'on the shelf' in a few weeks time maybe his wages will be mightily affordable?
