Summer transfer thread

I live that way too. Holmfirth is about 8 miles from Hudds. Town have a huge catchment area but sadly the place is clogged up with filth, Scouse and Leeds fans. They should be able to fill that stadium and support a Prem club. If only the locals would all get behind them.

Unrelated, do you miss the filming of LOTSW? Really pretty little village according to the filming.

Huddersfield I'd MASSIVE. It IS the biggest Town in England in size but not population due to most of it being countryside. It's my home town and Craigs too.

Holmfirth is a nice village for a day out but the beauty lay in the hills around it. The filming of LOTSW didn't really affect the place apart from drawing in loads of tourists. Spent a lot of time there in my youth and very rarely saw them filming.

EDS striker Jordy Hiwula has joined Huddersfield Town after agreeing a permanent deal with the Terriers.

The 20-year-old striker spent time on loan with Yeovil Town and Walsall last season, scoring nine goals in 20 games for the Saddlers and appearing in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy final against Bristol City.

A popular figure at the Club, the forward has penned a three-year deal with Huddersfield and everybody at Manchester City wishes Jordy the very best for the future.

Aside from Huddersfield Town's lovely scenery, the bigger draw for Jordy Hiwula, was ex-City coach Steve Eyre, who probably promised him game time and good goal assists from his ex-City teammates, Harry Bunn, Tommy Smith and Ishmael Miller, who are now also with the Terriers! I hope that Jordy, Harry, Tommy and Ishmael will all make a successful team there!

I think with us firing on Delph again and Vidal leaving Juve, chances of us getting Pogba this year are next to nil. If he left it would mean they have to replace 3 out of 4 starters from their successful team in one go. 2 is already a lot, but khedira is a good player and if they do get goetze i think he will ilght up the italian league.

If we get KDB, I'd be extremely happy with the window, bar waiting for one or both of jovetic/dzeko to be off.

I don't think we're getting Pogba, but signing Delph means absolutely ffuck all regarding signing Pogba. i'm 100% about that.
we needed HG players anyway, Delph was basically a freebie and IF we got Pogba and needed to let someone go Fern2 or someone would be off in a heartbeat. no problem.

A lot of Press talk tomorrow that the scum will pay Pedro's reserve price.

He could be a snip in the low 20s tbh.

When will the Rags catch any shit for spending half a billion USD in the last 3 windows tho?

Cheers

Agreed. They are also linked to Otamendi of course. In fairness United are demonstrating a strong commitment to promoting young English players as they have made very clear over the few transfer windows. Fairs fair.

You're probably right, the timing of it all just made me take notice.

Aah, the thing is Doomie, they are simply rebuilding, mainly due to bacon face departing....... Us on the other hand are buying the league, didn't you know we never existed before sheikh Mansour!!!

It must be true, as every rag, Scouse and arse fan I talk to tell me they read it in the press or saw it on Sky, surely they can't all be wrong ;-)

[I Just Blue Myself]

Patrick Roberts next?

[CTID Hants]

Patrick Roberts next?

The lad from Fulham?

Patrick Roberts next?

The lad from Fulham?

Just looks a random joe soap going in, at least Delph had a suit with him! With the young talent we have coming through I'm not sure where Roberts fits.

[DoomMerchant]

Patrick Roberts next?

The lad from Fulham?

Is he 5 foot 5 or is he next to an Amazonian woman?

Cheers

[I Just Blue Myself]

Daily Fail now reporting he's undergoing a medical. Same picture though.

[blues2win]

We've bought a whole bunch of talented 18-19 year olds. Interesting to see how they come along.

[blues2win]

Telegraph say 5 million with 6 million add ons depending on his progress.

[PeterParker]

OMG? IS THAT MIDO?

[DoomMerchant]

Fantastic. We need a lot more players this size. Tyrion Lanister next on the list?

Cheers

[Spurge]

OMG? IS THAT MIDO?

Yes but don't worry he hasn't got a cat in hells chance of passing a medical
