    Ramsdale to Soton for 18+7M pounds with a sell-on. Honestly a fantastic fucking deal under the circumstances.

      Either they’ve been working on stuff in the background, which is probably more likely, or they have a lot of work to do in 2 days.

      It’s also within the realm of possibility they are still talking to agents/players, but unless something drastic happens, have finialised business. This seems less likely with Nketiah and Vieira out the door and Jesus with another injury 1 day into the season.

        I have a feeling that whatever we’re doing, it’s pretty much done already. We’re just refusing to budge before we get the Eddie confirmation. It’s also worth remembering that we’re still trying to move Nelson on too.

          I have that feeling too, but I just don’t know how likely it is. But, I think you’re right about Eddie. Maybe it’s a case they have something lined up but are trying to offload him first to make sure we have the funds.

          It doesn’t seem like Nelson will be moved on this window though. I could be wrong, but it doesn’t feel like there is a lot of news around him.

          I suppose all will be revealed by Friday though. In the meantime, we can only wait and speculate.

      I’m hoping we go for Ferguson from Brighton. He’s young, talented, strong, proven PL quality, and has bags of potential. He would offer us a different option than either Havertz or Jesus.

    why are more clubs not going in for Carlton Morris? he was pretty impressive last season for the ultimately-relegated Luton Town.

    i’d say he made more of an impact than Toney, Solanke, or Darwin. ARS, TOT, or MUN could have strengthened with him, imo.

        Extended his contract, gave him false hope, didn’t let him play, let his value in the market dip, made sure he could not become more important for England. No one gained anything from the whole process.

        Maybe given time he could have learned the whole cross-claiming thing Raya specialises in.
