Apparently Liverpool have agreed a deal for Waff's man Robertson from Hull.
A little underwhelming but you've got to give Klopp the benefit of the doubt. Maguire is the other we're linked to.
Wijnaldum, Matip and Mane have been good signings.
Grujic has been injured too much to judge. Klavan and Manninger are every bit the backup players you'd expect whilst Karius seems the only 'flop' although I use that term loosely given he's barely had a look in either.
Not a bad record in the market thus far in fairness.
A person who can actually play left-back is a start. I've lost count of the times Milner has it and needs to drive to the byline but does the same cut inside move and underhit cross.
You'd have to think there'll be another left-back unless Klopp sees Milner as a reliable back up plan. It's not one of the big superstar transfers, but one of the sensible, needed ones.
I've grown to like him there, personally. I was just as underwhelmed when we signed him too but in fairness to the guy he has been one of our most consistent players since signing. He's eased into the position and despite not being a natural in it I think he's done bloody brilliant. I'm not doubting Klopp's judgement on any of the players he brings in during the summer as he's done nothing to make me question them thus far. I suppose it does spell the end for Moreno though.I really wanted him to have some sort of second coming.
It just seems so Alberto.
Sky are reporting the BREAKING NEWS that United have been offered the chance to sign Wee Jimmy Rodriguez in the summer.
Has he been crap, not got many chances or something else/turtle?
Why would we want to sign Hamez?
I thought Arsenal signed him a few years ago. Turns out it was Sanchez.
'Hamez' should be good (what a waste of time those World Cup Colombians have been mind) but if the cost is Dave Gayer I'm not sure it's that good a deal.
You'd think United could do with someone more direct/pacy though.
Hameth.Originally Posted by Kikó
Harmez would have been a good signing this time last year, but it doesn't really work with Paulp Ogba (or if the Antoine Griezmann one happens). I read Renato Sanches yesterday. That would be ideal, provided he hasn't turned completely bollocks and done an Anderson on crap meat and pretzels.
I hope they sign him for about £75m.
Newcastle and Chelsea have agreed a fee for Christian Atsu, according to Sky. £6.2m was apparently agreed as part of his loan deal.
Good start - he was pretty decent for us last season and he seemed to flourish as the season went on.
And it's covered by training kit sponsorships, noodle deals and the official tractor money and nobody cares.I hope they sign him for about £75m.
He was decent coming off the bench, so he's useful as a wildcard since he has moments of magic.
Not particularly excited about it, though. He won't keep us up at all.
It's just amusing, is all. Keep telling us how you're only 'one signing away' from a Premier League winning team...
I work with a lad who owns and runs a Leeds United Website, he has a press pass and is quite pally with a few people in the know. Usually finds out a fair bit of information that turns out to be true.
Told me today that Monk is happy to stay but before he agrees to anything is making them sign an agreement that states he has full control over the transfers and the budget. Which is fair enough but a sorry state of affairs when he feels that is necessary.
Five years after the relief of finally getting shot of him, we've signed 35 year old Michael Doyle and it's a bizarrely great signing. He's not missed a day of football in almost his whole career and he's just off winning League 2 as captain. The downside is that his nickname is 'Doyler' which is used by all the media and is stupid.
I thought Rad wanted to appoint a DoF?I work with a lad who owns and runs a Leeds United Website, he has a press pass and is quite pally with a few people in the know. Usually finds out a fair bit of information that turns out to be true.

Monk has said he wont work under one. So I guess it means that if we do see a DoF announced before Monk's announcement we know which way that's going.
Got the 20% refund back on my season ticket today also for not making play offs. Bittersweet.
Some people were refusing it to go back to the club.
How did you become a Leeds fan, @Magic? I mean it suits you perfectly, but I'd imagine that's more happy accident than design.
It was beaten in to me by my dad (who is from Leeds and moved up here in his 20s).
Child abuse. And the beatings aren't great either.
If the alternative was supporting a Dundee club (or one of the old firm) he's done you a favour.
I can't pretend I've watched much Madrid but it seems Zidane just doesn't fancy him as much as anything.
He's apparently got the highest goals+assists/minute of any midfielder in la liga this season, for whatever that's worth.
"Owen ended the 2004–05 season with 13 goals in La Liga, the season's highest ratio of goals scored to number of minutes played."
We can't sign Owen again FFS.
So did Chicharito the year he was there, it's almost like Real Madrid score lots of goals.
Especially if you count the subs coming on to put the 6th past Atl. Jamon CF
You're welcome to try and find even one post where I've suggested anything of the sort.It's just amusing, is all. Keep telling us how you're only 'one signing away' from a Premier League winning team...
Same.
I had them winning the league in the pre-season prediction thread. I think the only things I got right were John Stones being shit and Antonio Valencia being a legend, and they were hardly difficult calls to make.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39954093
Keane is looking likely then.
Might as well bring back Nani and Rafael.
I was just lolling at that report. No actual reports, no quotes... The BBC can't just publish that sort of pish.
I had Chelsea winning the league at the start of the season, which makes it annoying to see that twat who somehow got 5000/1 on it on advanced odds.
I did have 'Zlatan' as the worst signing though so it balances out.
I'm calling it right now that if he signs for Man United at whatever cost it ends up being that he'll be nothing more than a backup player within 18-24 months.
I'd rather we weren't interested either tbh.
More like six once Marcos Rojo is back.
You've stopped calling him the trendy lesbian since he stopped being shit.
I was talking to someone the other day who put £1,000 on Chelsea at 25/1 after we lost to Liverpool and Arsenal (but negated the winnings by putting other large bets on City and United).
Mind you, the same bloke was talking about putting £12,000 on a horse for the Derby, so who knows what sort of character we're talking about.
I'd rather wait for that moment in fairness. I don't see how any club can justify selling a player for £2M then bringing him back for over ten times that even if they get the sell on clause. I would be fuming if we were even entertaining the idea and in reality, there are better defenders around.More like six once Marcos Rojo is back.
Is Keane really any better than FEC Phil? I can see the case for Smalling being an absolute chancer, but is Jones just not permanently afflicted by strange blue-on-blue injuries? Signing centre halves off super negative bottom dwellers is a risky business.
I've just had a look back at the thread and Lewis went fairly big on trying to get Conte Watch off the ground. Calling him and Chelsea being great, the Championship spot on, and two of the three relegated sides correctly is more than negated on my part by shouting Musa as the signing of the season and Zlatan being shit.
He's English, presumably helps the club meet all of those European quotas without Jose Mourinho having to risk introducing any youth players of his own, and would probably cost not much more than some mug team would be willing to spend on Chris Smalling. I would welcome it.
When you have been at a club for six years and you're more noted for your injuries, facial expressions and a tongue in cheek FEC then I think it's fair to say that you're not even in Keanes league which is a statement in itself given it's his first season in the top flight (I think).
He's done me this season alright, but I still say that a monkey could have won those Serie A titles, so the general point is a slow-burner.
Wait until you right then say you called it.
That sounds very familiar.
This is probably going to need Woy to get back into management seeing as Everton are probably no good anymore and Davey Moyes isn't going to have 2 bob to spend.
We've bought someone called Pascal Gross, for probably about £3.5m (undisclosed fee as usual). Number ten and set piece specialist, which could be very useful.
"Pascal Groß has created more chances (95) than any other player in the #Bundesliga this season."
