Muppet transfer thread 2017?

Obviously we couldn't sign all of these guys, but the muppet in me would love any of them:
Griezmann (this one's done)
Keita
Bellotti
Fabinho
Nainggolan
Mendy (City bound)
Lindelof
 
Is there any chance of us signing Patrick Roberts of Celtic? It's obvious that Pep is doing about all he can to keep him on the outer (ie. Bernardo Silva et al.) We need a skilful right flanker with pace and goals. Surely he wouldn't cost an arm and a leg.
 
If I went full muppet, any of the following would do nicely, with my personal favourite "money and loyalty are no object" choices in red and a more realistic and attainable alternative in bold

Centre Back: Sokratis, Manolas, Marquinhos, Koulibaly, Bonucci, Varane, Gimenez
Full Back: Sidibe, Semedo, Rose, Alex Sandro, Jonas Hector, Florenzi, Mendy
Holding Mid: Verratti, Fabinho, Dendoncker, Casemiro, N'zonzi, Danilo Pereira
Attacking Mid: Neymar, Griezmann, Sanchez, Carrasco, O. Dembele, Reus, Bale
Striker: Kane, Belotti, Lukaku, Aubameyang, Icardi, Cavani, Dolberg

Exactly. Every year we have one muppet transfer fantasy, although Pogba spoiled it last year by actually signing.
 
Total muppet signing, never going to happen, but instead of throwing €100 million at Athletico for Greizmann, throw it at Juventus for Dybala.
:D:rolleyes::lol:
 
Going by todays BS....next seasons team
...................De Gea..............
Valenicia...Bailly..Lindelof..Semedo
........Fabinho........Herrera..........
Rashford........Pogba...........Perisic..
.......................Lukaku
 
Looking like it's going to be the Griesmann thread, all the classic signs. 50 pages of meltdown today, saying it's off, that Woodward and Mou are frauds, they never wanted him anyway. Then tomorrow a new tweet will give a positive hint and we'll be back to GriesmON. Rinse and repeat for the next two months and 1000 pages
 
My guess is youre going to blow 200m+ on

lindelof
keane
rose
dier
perisic
belotti

I'd like that to happen
 
Not completely sold on Griezmann, especially after reading this stuff about cooling our interest. He is a WC obviously, but I really think we need to address other positions first. I would risk with Bale and his injuries if Madrid decides to cash in (or as a trade if they decide to push for DDG after saturday), he would suit us much more than Griezmann.
I think many people underrate Lukaku here, he would be my priority signing for CF position - Can lead the line, score against mediocre teams (we really lack flat track bully in this team), and will only improve with age.
He is a Mourinho's type of CF as well (big, athletic) and PL proven.

So, for me, dream summer would be:
1) Lukaku
2) Fabinho
3) Lindelof (if he doesn't cost more than 30/35m) / Keane
4) Semedo/Mendy/Rose
5) Bale / Griezmann as our marque signing

Funnily enough, your signings will still be worse. Not that this going to happen anyway.
 
Bale, Lukaku, Sanchez and Griezmann. And then Neymar and Özil as squad players.

1000 pages? Obviously Persisic.:)
 
We need to sign Griezmann, Kroos, Bellotti, Morata, Bonucci, Fabinho and Mendy. :(
 
I'd be really happy if we ended up with this, griezmann over one of morata or lukaku would be the dream though

De gea
lindaloff Rojo bailly
Fabinho
Valencia Herrera Pogba mendy
Morata Lukaku
​
Subs : rashford, martial, fellaini, blind, Romero, mkhi, young


Buy : morata/lukaku, Mendy, lindaloff, Fabinho.

Sell: smalling, jones, darmian and maybe mata :(
