Ok folks, have done this the last few windows, time to do this one, even if i'm a bit late.

As of 12th July, who will be our next signings, and how much will our summer NET spend be?

I'll quote figures to ensure you dont cheat ;-)

EDIT. lukaku is 75m, lindelof 31m. Until i hear otherwise Rooney was a free (?)

  • A big/surprise player.

Perisic will be the next one. I think our net spend will be around £164m. I think we'll get some money back from sales towards the end of the window.

Morgan and Memphis fees are added to this transfer spend or last?

I'll ignore the title controversy and go with:

In: Perisic (£46m)
Out: Smalling (£15m)
Out: Januzaj (£9.8m I think they said?)
Out: Darmian (£15m)

Overall net spend around £112m

Do you really think we won't go for a DM? We need a DM more than we do a winger so i am surprised by your post.

If Darmian leaves then a FB will be bought.

I think we're going to go hard for Dier but won't get him. I think Fabinho will go elsewhere (and we seem to be uninterested), Weigl is injured and won't be looked at, Matic isn't going to be sold to us, so I think we'll leave that position as it seems to be last on our priorities after Perisic anyway.

The Summer (transfer) is young and full of promise

All valid points, personally I feel without a DM we will struggle to challenge for the title. Fellaini and Carrick just aren't good enough to play that 3rd CM spot in a 4-3-3 and Fellaini loves his controversial challenges. I could see us having real.problems if we stick with him as a first XI starter rather than a squad player.

Why would anyone put Glaston on ignore? He's thoroughly entertaining, with a minor side effect of making you hate Spurs.
Why would anyone not have him on ignore?

Anyway back on topic. Im going to say £220 Million on incoming and a bag of chips and a handshake on outgoings. So £220 million.

Finally, a Glaston discussion thread.
Why's he managed to avoid being banned for 10 years?

He's a complete knobhead who's only aim on here is to wind people up. Other posters have been banned for much less.

On topic, I reckon we'll spend around £160-170m. Bring in two more players hopefully.

Next: Fabinho

Total net: £176M

This net spending "lies" a little bit because we sold player earlier this year.

"Forget Eric Dier going to Man United" - David Pleat.
For the first time, I think this might now be possible if this oaf says the opposite. By the way, who decides what is and isn't a creditable media source (surely not liking a newspaper isn't a good enough reason, mods)

Lukaku 75-90m. 75 for now as he's not hit any targets.
Lindelof 31m.

I'd say you'll spend another maybe 80m or so so in total £200m.

Perisic will come for about £35m and Dier for about £50m so that would be £191m
Maybe less if you take Matic instead of Dier. We'll say £180 or there abouts.

No way Perisic will come at 35m when we already bid more than that and got rejected. I think it'll be closer to 200m regardless we bring Dier or Matic

We need to spend net £300m plus this window to be competitive. I fear we are going to come up way short on what we need.
