Sure, as long as you bear in mind that this person said the following;

- That our next manager was going to be Frank Lampard
- That Guehi would be leaving in last summers transfer window
- That Lewis Hall was a ‘Done Deal’ from Chelsea and was about to be announced
- That Zaha had resigned for us last summer and was about to be announced
- That we would ‘definitely’ be signing 2 or 3 more players last summer
- That the striker would be Nketiah
- That the defender would be either Kossounou or Chalobha
- That the winger would be either Gnonto, Summerville, CHO or Demari Gray
- That we had definitely signed Rhian Brewster from Liverpool and it was about to be announced
- That Saïd Benrahma was a ‘Done Deal’ and it was about to be announced

These are just a few examples from recent transfer windows and were all delivered as absolute gospel! Of course we actually know that it was all total and utter B***ocks!

It is a pity that every transfer window we have to suffer this nonsense because it is SO fundamentally misleading and unhelpful…but there we go. You crack on if you think it’s worth it

I'm still living in hope that they're all still going to happen would make quite a transfer deadline day.

It's amazing that we're able to keep all our incoming transfers so private.

Already posted an hour before you did. The source is a less reputable Twitter poster

I have been told today that we have made an enquiry for Getafe striker Borja Mayoral.

We will see if this goes anywhere , I don’t think it will as I believe they want £30m+

We should have bought him 2 years ago for 8m, i raved about him, he, Semenyo i also said we should buy, done well at Bournemouth, but a lot more to come from him, at the AFCON now, the one player we have to buy is Morgan Whittaker from Plymouth going to go all the way.

Thanks Dazza , He does seem to be a bit on the older side of signings than what we usually go for , but i suppose at 27 he is younger than what we have at RB .

I was reminded last night that it was Steve Cooper who signed Whittaker for Swansea, from Derby, for £700,000.

Really? Everywhere else it's £5m, c'mon, gotta do better.

 

This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.
