Transfer Gossip

Wonder if we’re playing the long game on Fossey. Seems like Fulham wanted a bidding war for a 23 yo with a handful of L1 apps and dodgy injury record.

Rotherham interest turned out to be a dud. We’ve “moved on”. All gone a bit quiet for him. Wouldn’t be surprised to see him loaned out again. Then we could potentially pick him up on a free next summer or knockdown price in Jan

I have a feeling he will get fixed up with a contract before the end of this window.

That is an unfortunate surname lol, up there with Danny Shittu

"The Whites’ new B-team project will now give Sithole (pronounced S-itt-ullay) the platform to develop further as he becomes the sixth external recruit to Matt Craddock’s squad ahead of the new campaign."

Whilst on the Gills forum to see what they thought of Sithole  (shouldn't have been released), I notice a thread suggesting we are about to sign a Robbie McKenzie from them.  He's a 23 yr old right back almost 6ft originally from Hull.  Out of contract next week.   They would be due a (small) training fee as he's not 24 until September.

Didn’t Newcastle have a Pistone?

Had a mate once called Patel, he insisted it was pronounced Pay-Tel.

Reckon Rice is the better player, but he'd cost a lot more. 

For sure. 43 million is actually a very good deal in todays market for an England international 

and rumour is they’re about to sell Jesus for 50 million so they are doing bits once again.

Funny seeing how behind united are… again

Makes sense if it's true as competition for Bradley with maybe the hope that McKenzie will be good enough to make the position his own once the kid goes back to Liverpool. Some decent pedigree in champ & L1 at only 23... meant to be another one like Iredale who can cover multiple postitions being able to play on the right, CB or DM which looks like Evatt wants versatility to deal with the potential injury crisis we may face along the season to fill gaps. Gills being raided for their better players whilst on the spiral Demps/Tucker/Mckenzie ect would be easy to turn your noses as they had a dire season but they did have a really decent season the prior finishing 10th so must have had some positives about about them amongst the recent abysmal crap that's gone on there. Would deffo put a an end to some fans hopes of Marlon magically appearing here after all what's been put out there if this transfer is true though.
