Transfer Tweets - Summer 2017 | Keep it on topic

And he really wasn't as bad as is often made out. In the 02/03 season he started to look pretty good and made a really good contribution in that title winning side... Then we sold him to Chelsea.

He'd probably suit our current side really well if he was around in this era.

He wasnt bad at all, thats the shameful part.
 
De Gea won't push for a move while no club is stupid enough to pay 70m for either James or Morata...
Yet it's Madrids decision.
 
Lazio values him at €30m, so it's not that embarrasingly low.

Are you sure about that? They're valuing Keita at 30 million but when Inter was inquiring about De Vrij, Lazio asked for 50 million hence why Inter turned their attention to Rudiger and Manolas.

Apparently it's £30m instead of €30, apologies, but that's what Twitter reports are saying at the moment yeah (based on Sky Italia most of the time). I'm not fully convinced by De Vrij though, he's a very good defender but he has a worse injury record than Sturridge and that's saying something.

How do you know what Lazio value him at? Have they announced that?

Also that screams of Liverpool saying "Come on Virgil, put some pressure on Saints or we'll get someone else."
 
Hasn't De Vrij got only 1 year left on his contract? If anything €20m is a very decent bid for him.
 
But all of those clubs earn more through gate receipts, sponsorship, shirt sales etc.

Yeah I'm not gonna dispute that, i think it was just the prize money/tv money they counted. Either way, for sunderland to earn that sort of money from being completely abject all season is quite incredible. I think that was the reason for pointing it out.

Twitter reports, mainly Sky Italia.
 
Real want €90m for Morata when he's on €2.5m/year salary. If they don't sell him for a reasonable fee, Morata and his agent will quite naturally feel he deserves to be paid according to the clubs valuation. How do they explain Morata's salary and their valuation of him when they will pay €130m for Mbappe and they will pay him a salary that reflects that valuation?
 
Why have we banned united report when we seem to be ok with most other aggregator accounts

I wonder this as well, they never claim the information as their own and they always name the source don't see the problem with it at all. They are usually quick on the stories too.

Good point.He would want inmediately a rise.
Probably everything will depend on Mbappé.

They've made stuff up in the past to get more followers/retweets (Mourinho "surprise" quote for one, which people are still citing to this day as something that happened when it didn't).

One example for me shouldn't get them banned and at the time they may have just stumbled on a fake article? They are not in the habit of posting fake stories and quotes. They do a lot of the hard work collecting information from a huge variety of sources so their followers don't have to and it's nearly always accurate.

They add nothing to the original article. It's best to just post the original and avoid aggregators.

It isn't the one example. They've done it before (account was banned even before that incident but that has reinforced their unreliability). They may do hard work but don't think they do enough to ensure the information is accurate.

Also, what JPRouve said. I'm not a fan of accounts which don't even link to the source.
 

Milan make first official offer for Belotti. Too low.
 
So you don't know then.
Of course I don't 'know' but if you can't go by anything that's posted on Twitter this page and the whole Transfer Forum would be pretty pointless don't you think?
