A thread full of lies
Difficult to think what will happen with Gilmour as he’s obviously a great prospect but the Norwich move didn’t go to plan. I’m sure they’d be plenty of interest in him if he does leave Chelsea and hopefully we’d be looking at him.Never knew that mate. Thanks
Gilmours mum was in Seville and said there’s no chance of him coming back in the near future.Gilmour and the Bodo Glimt winger Soldbakken would be excellent pieces of business to kick the summer off

Not really, you can tell transfers that seem like Gerrard signings - Lundstram, Simpson (coaching team admired him apparently), Kent, Ejaria, Roofe possiblyWhat's a Gerrard signing? Aren't all signings / potential signings put up by Ross Wilson ?
Quick google search of him and you’ll see why he won’t be signed by anyone, at least till he’s proved innocent or guilty for that matterGylfi Sigurdson (32) - Free and Extra creativity in fwd areas
Sigurdson??Would be looking at
James Tarkowski (29)- Free and Decent Goldson Replacement
Pascal Gross (30) - Free and Decent Davis Replacement
Gylfi Sigurdson (32) - Free and Extra creativity in fwd areas
Cucho Hernandez (23) - Free and much needed right sided fwd and a pal for Alfie
Perfect candidate for Celtic to sign.Quick google search of him and you’ll see why he won’t be signed by anyone, at least till he’s proved innocent or guilty for that matter
Yeah and while we're at it let's hire Gary Glitter as a club ambassadorGylfi Sigurdson (32) - Free and Extra creativity in fwd areas
Absolutely buckled at someone seriously suggesting him, might as well go for Mendy and Adam Johnson thenQuick google search of him and you’ll see why he won’t be signed by anyone, at least till he’s proved innocent or guilty for that matter
He's big in Edinburgh.
They'll give him a new contract to protect his value.It's only realistic if he's signed a new deal with Chelsea. If he's going into the last year of his contract....would they let him go on loan?
Loan with obligation to buy maybe but a straight loan would be mental/ stupidity ( from a Chelsea perspective)
Would be looking at

Take this with a huge pinch of salt,not even a verified accountWho is Dave Henshaw and should we believe him?
Have we not been linked with Tarkowski a few times in the past?Would be looking at

His wages will be high as wellTarkowski is heavily linked with Newcastle and has been for a long time.
Doubt we are in for him and suspect he’ll be announced at toon soon

Superb Gaizka, get your CV in to Wilson!Here's just some thoughts from me, anyone who knows me will know I follow European Football and the players named are one's I have actually seen! No Football Manager nonsense with me.
Potential Targets
Goalkeepers
Sam Johnstone (West Brom) Bosman Ruling
Benjamin Siegrist (Dundee United) Bosman Ruling
Andre Onana (Ajax) Bosman Ruling, leaving club after being banned for 12 months in February 2020 after testing positive for a banned substance. Top class keeper and shot stopper, constantly linked with Inter Milan
Defenders
Anel Ahmedhodzic (Malmo) Dependent on price, may have lowered since loan spell at relegated Bordeaux
Arthur Theate (Oostende) has spent this season on loan at Bologna, has two Belgian caps
John Souttar (Hearts) Bosman Ruling
Joris Gnagnon (St. Etienne) Free
Niklas Stark (Hertha Berlin) Bosman Ruling
Riechedly Bazoer (Vitesse Arnhem) Bosman Ruling
Sven Van Beek (Heerenveen) A player Van Bronckhorst knows well, contract due to expire in 2023
Valentino Lazaro (Inter Milan) Right full-back or midfielder, has spent the last 3 years on loan from Inter and needs a permanent move
Midfielders
Billy Gilmour (Chelsea) is it realistic???
Florian Grillitsch (Hoffenheim) Bosman Ruling
John Swift (Reading) Bosman Ruling
Razvan Marin (Cagliari) Romanian international midfielder, club recently relegated. Could be an expensive purchase option.
Octavian Popescu (Steaua) highly rated and likely therefore to prove expensive. More a number 10 than central midfielder.
Xavi Simons (Paris St Germain) Bosman Ruling, has not signed a new deal and this now looks unlikely that he will do so. Top talent who many teams will be looking at.
Wide Midfield/Wingers
Albert Gudmundsson (Genoa) Joined in January, however club recently relegated, potential bargain
Ola Solbakken (Bodo/Glimt) Bosman Ruling (December) or 1.5 million offer
Christian Pavon (Boca Juniors) Bosman Ruling
Manor Solomon (Shakhtar Donetsk) Likely to be too high in terms of both transfer and wages
Forwards
Scott Twine (MK Dons)
Thijs Dallinga (Excelsior) Top goalscorer in the Dutch 2nd division, only 21. 31 goals in 33 games so far this season
Dante Vanzier (Union S-G) Belgium international striker
Deniz Undav (Union S-G) Signed for Brighton in January 2022, could be available on potential loan deal
Eddie Nketiah (Arsenal) Bosman Ruling
Erik Botheim (Krasnodar) Available potentially on a free transfer
Erin Zahavi (PSV) Free, 34 years of age but has plenty of quality. Released at end of season by PSV
Jesper Karlsson (AZ Alkmaar) 15 goals, 12 assists this season
George Puscas (Reading) On loan at Pisa currently, strong target man type striker
Lois Openda (Vitesse Arnhem) On loan from Club Brugge, 18 goals for Vitesse this season
He's scored 14 and assisted 4 in 22 games for Sochi those are decent numbers he hasn't struggledMatteo Casseria. Young Colombian striker from Sochi being linked. Tore it up for Jong Ajax but struggled since. I suspect its lazy journalism though
Gilmour is a must build the team around him
Our system going forward should be two things.
1. Buying potential for cheap to develope and sell for a profiit.
2.buying players who we know we may not recoup transfer wise but their performances on the pitch will bring us rewards.
A fine line but we can't have 11 Sakalas.
He has 12 months left on his deal, and his stock is nowhere near as high as it used to be thanks to Norwich. If he’s coming here, he’s coming permanently.So we build the team around him, then what happens when his loan ends & he leaves?
Tarkowski going to Newcastle by all accounts.Would be looking at
James Tarkowski (29)- Free and Decent Goldson Replacement
Pascal Gross (30) - Free and Decent Davis Replacement
Cucho Hernandez (23) - Free and much needed right sided fwd and a pal for Alfie
Apologies for the other name suggested
People want to buy potential/punts but not give them the time or benefit of the doubt. So frustrating.You do realise that Sakala was signed as point 1 in your post?
No more over 33 year olds winding down their careers please and thanks.Zahavi for a season would be class. I know he's 34 but hes a top player
Zahavi for a season would be class. I know he's 34 but hes a top player
8 pages of pure pish.
Just like Defoe?No more over 33 year olds winding down their careers please and thanks.
Can understand why folk think we'd be an attractive option to Gilmour - we would be great for his development. But I reckon he see's himself as a premier league player and will want to keep playing down south. He'll probably move on from Chelsea. Looks like he's in the last year of his contract (although they could have an option to extend as is quite common). My money is on another loan or a PL team buying him as Chelsea will be open to selling.
Like Senderos, Barton, Kranjcar, Alves and Martin.Just like Defoe?
Senderos - doneLike Senderos, Barton, Kranjcar, Alves and Martin.
Sign him sell Kamara and bring in Gilmour far better at opening things up in my opinionSo we build the team around him, then what happens when his loan ends & he leaves?
Think Zahavi would be an excellent signingSenderos - done
Barton - done/headcase
Kranjcar - done/playing in a lower tier in the USA.
Alves - treated pretty poorly, still getting in Portugal squads then went to play again in Serie A.
Martin - just a dreadful player.
Zahavi is still playing at a club similar to ours regularly, scoring goals and playing international football.
Would be a massive mistake for Gilmour to go there. He's had an awful spell at Norwich, so the next move he makes needs to go right for him.I'd bet on him ending up at Everton
I don't think it's the craziest idea that he could end up back here.I'd bet on him ending up at Everton
Guys went on to Say he was told about PLG becoming manager way back in 2006 and Templeton signing when we where in the 3rd division, file under complete lies
Absolutely.Just like Defoe?
