I posted about this too, but didn’t post the snazzy screen-grab. Very interesting. The Sky Sports report probably wasn’t far wrong.

Didn’t say this summer.

I like him too. I get the Pep link & I get that they need more legs with Fernandinho getting older. Win-win for us if it’s true.

I would like Jose to do better there before levy looks to us for a coach again

I’m guessing, but I would say Levy is far too canny to have a price agreed.

Tenuous link - Possibly one for the academy. Released by Liverpool, now at Wigan & has been fast tracked through their youth ranks.

Our annual summer link with a Barcelona player continues - Jean-Clair Todibo. http://sportwitness.co.uk/player-has-received-proposals-from-watford-and-southampton-wants-to-take-time-to-decide-future/

I have no idea how they could review that and give a penalty.

Maybe we do need a transfer guru after all. It's all gone a bit 'Les Reed' since we told the Echo defenders would be arriving pronto.

Indeed. His ability to take existing players and make them better really is fantastic.

Holgate is out. Walcott is back fit.

Ah, interesting... I saw their 'Head of recruitment' Lee Dykes was being lined up by Leipzig to replace Paul Mitchell. Brentford are doing something right. I don't know if we still want somebody to fill the role, or if we will attempt to go as we are.

Get this man (or woman) doing our transfer deals

Dejan Ljubicic? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8489905/Brentford-weigh-Rapid-Vienna-midfielder-Dejan-Ljubicic.html

£15m, according to the article. They may as well bid low - it worked for Tadic!

Alan Nixon linked us with him last year. Spurs were linked too.
