The Bear Posted 22 July 2018 Share Posted 22 July 2018 (edited) The lad who is Patricio's mate on Twitter who told us about him signing has spoken to him again, and said we are getting someone tomorrow who's one of his best mates and a fellow Portugese International. Everyone seems to think it's Joao Moutinho from Monaco. Edited 22 July 2018 by The Bear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bear Posted 22 July 2018 Share Posted 22 July 2018 Dunno. Patricio was back training with us on Monday and played in a friendly today. Would be easy to agree a deal even on holiday, subject to going for a medical whenever he's back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if lack of cash was the reason for the Mahrez deal taking so long. I’ve no idea if that’s a joke or not All I know is, it sounds absolutely ridiculous!

Well I’m not familiar with blue moon. If it’s on there I suppose it could have substance but you posted without explaining that. It’d be interesting to know what’s going on there.

The Bear Posted 22 July 2018 Share Posted 22 July 2018 The Man City stuff to me sounds like a way of freeing up the TV cash instantly without the owner injecting it himself, as that doesn't count towards any FFP revenue. It would likely strengthen their hand in transfer negotiations having cash available to pay clubs up front. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any club with a decent scouting system finds a player of his level for ten million on the continent. Classic Premier League complacency. Going to be quite controversial and say that Everton aren't a big a club as many over there/the press suggest. They seem like a club with potential to go further but often shoot themselves in the foot etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But with prem money and CL money they should have enough. Where does it end if they don't have such a good season and don't bring as much in they will need more next season.

The Bear Posted 22 July 2018 Share Posted 22 July 2018 (edited) It's purely a way of getting the TV money up front immediately. And since they now have a partnership with Barclays they're taking advantage of that. Fair play to them I say. The more cashflow the have available during the transfer window directly from their revenue streams, the better they can negotiate with other clubs.

StriderHiryu Posted 22 July 2018 Share Posted 22 July 2018 Wolves are basically the Portuguese national team at this point. Their setup is so fishy, but I'll say one thing - it's got to be one of the best teams put together by a promoted team in years. We have them at home for our second game and it should be a good game.

Max Wall Posted 23 July 2018 Share Posted 23 July 2018 Wolves signing Moutinho today. That seems like a decent signing if he can live with the pace of the prem. £5m fee may prove to be quite a steal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These seem to all be reasonably sensible signings too rather than the scattergun approach other big spenders like West Ham and Everton have taken. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant player, not kicked a ball for Atletico though, he's just joining you on loan straight away after they sign him from Vigo.... odd. I guess you had the favour from them before in the shape of Diego Jota though! Edited 23 July 2018 by AjcW 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The longer they go without winning something (League 86/87 - FA Cup 94/95) the more they turn into one of the other winners in history like Newcastle 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
