Lack of rumours - The rumour thread

[the other bob wilson]

I bought Football Manager for the first time in quite a while at Christmas and am currently managing Bath City in the National League, I sent my scouts to have a look at Turnbull and they tell me we should sign him as a priority. It seems he’d be a leading player in the Sky Bet Championship, but he doesn’t seem interested in joining us. One other thing, he’s rated 17 out of 20 for taking penalties which is more than the rest of our squad put together.

Who does he replace? Can’t see Liverpool loaning a player to warm the bench

They can fight it out, he'll give them a reason to step up, competition for places is good!

We need a penalty taker that's for sure!

They might just want him off the wage bill, he’s 26 now he’s not some young up and coming star looking to break into the team. He will never be good enough for them as a starter.

Hes allegedly on 65k a week so id imagaine they are going to have to cover the majority of those wages!

[splott parker]

We ain’t singed them yet.

Wait until they’ve played a few games for us ��

Just hope we don’t get our fingers burnt on this one.

I agree. I don't think the back 4 being shoe-ins every week has helped at all.

[WJ99mobile]

I think it's a very good signing

Doesn't strike me as a Bulut one though so I do wonder who orchistrated this one?

Well as much of it off the wage bill as possible then. 65k a week wow, he won’t be going any permanent until his Liverpool deal is up then.

Badou Ndiaye going to Pendikspor instead of us according to this

When we loaned the midfielder from Liverpool(whose name I've forgotten), in our promotion season, we had to guarantee a certain percentage of games that he would start. I would have thought that Liverpool would have had some agreement in place, particularly as Panzo has gone back to Forest for lack of minutes.
I suspect that this signing means that we will play three at the back.

Must be why we're after Turnbull. I'm a lot happier with Turnbull rather than Ndiaye given he's 9 years younger.

Serbian defender?

Why did the dyslexic refuse to wear a polo shirt?

Because he was Lacoste intolerant.

Important that the bigger clubs get more money so they can use it wisely on 26 year olds that they loan out to mid table Championship clubs.

Wonder if someone's had a word for us to stop targetting pensioners from the Turkish league...

Ageism! Reported. 😎

Not sure if it's a deliberate ploy but in the last couple of windows City seem to be working on one target only to 'switch' to another at the last minute..

Good point it looks that way, the backups are often better than the player we are mostly linked with.

Tom Ince available!

Seems to be a bit of a marmite player for Celtic fans. Some saying he’s good but he just doesn’t fit the team, others saying he’s crap.

Seems a decent enough goal scorer though, about 1 in every 4 games but he’s been subbed on quite a lot so possibly closer to 1 in 3.

Scores a few screamers too, likes taking shots from 20-25 yards out which is promising. Colwill is the only player I can think of who tries those sort of goals.

Interested to know why you think it is not one of buluts ?
