Swiss newspaper rubbishes talk of Xherdan Shaqiri swapping #stokecity for #Galatasaray - say #thfc #efc #saintsfc #asroma all more likely: https://www.blick.ch/sport/fussball/nati/galatasaray-will-den-nati-star-tuerken-drehen-wegen-shaqiri-durch-id8436232.html

Big dude. Linked with Fulham for £9m.

Yeah, it's funny how things work out sometimes. He'd never be on our radar usually, but he's probably just what we need at the moment. Did a very good job keeping us up & deserves the chance.

Sweepstake? 1st June.

SSN: Afobe to Wolves?

No surprise to see teams wanting J-Rod.

Who knows if it's true in this case? Maybe, maybe not. I think you're naive if you think it's never happened in the past.

I'd loan him out too.

Their record signing is apparently £5.4m.

Les was talking about this in one of his post season chats (must've been a while ago). Sure he mentioned linking up with a European club as a partnership.

Your point is valid, Bats. Probably wouldn't help advanced academy players. I'd just be excited to have a club I could have a vested interest in over there. Imagine it would be good for the younger boys to spend some time at.

I thought that - but Fabinho is now a DM, apparently. (Always thought he was a right back!)

Tierney (& Shaw) should be on the list to replace Bertrand.

Yeah, what a load of tripe that was. I even remember Pellegrino having a minor dig about the club needing to move quicker on transfers when we c*cked that deal up.

£40m price tag probably puts us off. I hope Macca stays. I'm not convinced Liverpool want him. Mignonlet is probably as good.

Grealish looks good but Maddison had more end product.

Not seen who reported it for The Sun, but would be good if true.

I'd consider Grealish too.

Not Prem, but Leeds probably got close under Massimo Cellino
