Summer 2018 transfer thread

Not really.

The selling club is now in control.

They won’t sell for under what they want.

If palace want 75 million for Zaha they are under no pressure to sell for less

That's only because there is competition for his signature

Completely. Go back 10+ years and it was a buyers' market. The last 2-3 years have turned into a heavily seller's market. Look at Liverpool asking £120m or whatever for Coutinho, the Mahrez deal, reported price expectations for Zaha, £75m for DVD....if a bigger club comes calling, the selling club would set the price. If Real called us about Kane, it would be £150m - £200m or no deal
 
Seem to miss out on players due to his approach, or brings them in late which has cost us in previous years.

So if that’s what he wants sure
Well he’s generally sold our players for above market value and purchased players for good value. Any approach is never going to have 100% success rate, but we’ve done very well with the constraints we have....

Fixed it for you!
 
Kevin Mirallas

Cheap, available, versatile WF/CF, another for the Dutch contingent, Poch seemingly wanted him 2-3 years ago, a better option than Nkoudou and Sissy.

This summer's Llorente signing?
