The Summer Transfer Window Thread

[FearOfAJackPlanet]

I think we'll look to bring three more in:

-Striker
-LB
-I have a feeling Sheehan wants another option out wide, particularly on the right. Ronald'oh has his merits, but I think someone with real pace and who is a little less...clumsy in and around the box is desired. With Bianchini out on loan and Ginnelly a non-factor, we're a little light on options there.

I completely forgot about Ginnelly.
Is he injured still/again?
Telling he didn't get close to the squad for the cup games.

Can see a mutual termination coming for him tbh.

I wouldn't be surprised but that would need to happen before the window closes

Not sure it does. If you mutually terminate your contract aren't you a free agent and therefore able to sign for someone else, even outside the window?

"He is a player I'm aware of obviously, an Irish international so yeah I do know him. A good player but I don't want to comment on anybody that's not our player," said Sheehan.

You have to be a free agent when the window closes so if his contract is terminated before 7pm on Monday he's able to sign for another team at any time.
If his contract is terminated after Monday he can't sign for another team until January

Don’t tell SwanseaBoy123 that

Yeah, but SwanseaBoy 123 is half the man that Jack 246 is.

Absolutely not.

Got Wrexham and a silly weekly wage written all over it.

I mentioned on page 325 of the summer transfer thread (RIP), that spunking big money on a striker is making me feel uneasy.
I really think there’s a player in Vipotnik but since the Dickey Muff era, we just aren’t giving our strikers enough service.
Will a brand new, multi million pound striker fare any better?

 

[Swansea93]

Jayden Danns would be an excellent loan signing for us, looks a brilliant player.

If spending on a multi million pound striker brings better movement, better finshing, more physicality and the ability to hold up the ball and bring others into play (or create space for them), then yes they and the team will fare better.

We get the ball forward a lot quicker now but it's not sticking.. a striker who can hold the ball up will help all round
