would be surprised if it wasn't true tbh buster we seem to have been totally focused on gylfi for far to long. personally if we can't wrap up a deal within the next 24 hrs i would move on to other targets. there are good players everywhere that are still for sale quality players that are signing for other teams as we turn a positive start to the window into a fiasco. no one knows who we are actually chasing apart from gylfi that is it is all just speculation or inquiries with no further action. don't know what happened to the giroud link but we seem to have moved on to welbeck according to more speculation but just we might be interested no firm offer from the club getting sick of it. i can't see us standing our ground on gylfi unless we had a potential replacement ready to go so it will probs be that someone at least i hope so.

Club shop should know! They must have boxes upon boxes of vowels and consonants waiting in the back in case Gylfi signs.

Told you before lads. It is obvious that the initial signings were purchased on the strength of Lukaku's up and coming fee. There is no new money for signings as it has to be funnelled into the new stadium accounting column. Any new incomings now depend on cash flow, hence the reduction in Barkleys ask, in order to facilitate a quick income and the reason behind the renegotiation stance on Sigurdson.

Yep new signing for Friday, apparently the shop has been short staffed for ages.

Pure speculation Bill, non of us have any clue regarding the financial situation at the club. Let's see what happens before the end of the transfer window before coming to any conclusions.

you have to be more business savvy than that the funds for the new stadium would have been agreed upon a while ago you don't then funnel money into something that has been agreed. no sales from players would be funneled in such a way, this would be market sensitive and no financial institution would agree a deal to build a stadium based on future player sales, in a transfer market best described as whimsical and at worst cut throat based on whether a player deamnds to leave or whether he does a gylfi and sees what deal can be agreed amicably. you might be able to pay your debts or you might not depending on player sales is just nonsense. imo that money will have had to have been in a fund by a certain date for the deal to be agreed and seeing as it has that would not be a concern.

all this speculation about a flight from amsterdam is mildy amusing before we all get too excited you have to remember that we are not the only team in the region, and any of the teams in the north west from utd to our neighbours could be involved in whatever is transpiring with this flight. albeit that when i worked the front desk at a hotel in the city that had an account with efc hardly any of the rooms let to us was actually for players it was mostly business types that i suspected were trying to tie up deals but i never once saw a player from another team in the hotel before signing, its true tho that once a player has been announced he may stay at the hotel while he sorts his own accommodation, deals like this rarely take place in front of hotel guests or staff or in the public eye. until we hear a player is coming for a potential deal or infact has been announced by the club then i would not take any notice of it. and dohlberg is a big player would it be kept so quiet if he was on the verge of moving to the prem i don't think so. altho would be happy to be wrong on this, we need a player like him asap.

and to top it off dohlberg has recently been linked with a move to liverpool acccording to some outlets just googled him to see what info is doing the rounds and his link to man u in may is top and second is liverpool are chasing him, add to that ajax' words about not selling him this year and i would think this flight has someone else on it, kinda wanna go the airport and camp out with binoculars but then again, nah will just have to wait and see.

having read a lot of google garbage on the subject of efc transfer targets if we are about to sign someone flying in from amsterdam then i would agree with the guy who said Jorgensen a month ago we were readying an 18 mill bid according to more than one outlet we need a striker and so far can't see why we wouldn't follow up on him so that's my best guess altho if it is him credit should go to the guy who kept bringing him up in these posts, we best sign someone within the next 24 hrs after all this excitement sad news that we are still nowhere near signing gylfi.
