Looks like Liverpool have got a new attacking mid fielder coming in a year or two ;)

looks like our strong links with Celtic continue, I'm assuming you get a nice whack when we sell them on.

Aye amazing business for us tbf, he only really was exceptional for about 8 months, early on ordinary and last season injury plagued but on his game a cracking player with a great engine and an eye for goal. He has been slated a bit but i wish him luck and can't really blame any player for wanting to play in the EPL with the wages on offer and chance to better himself.

sad to see Tadic go, gone to Ajax for 10m but seems he's been unhappy for a while, he can be one of those players who is brilliant for a bit, and then gets a strop on, can see why we made the earlier signing now.

Strong rumours of Jack to Turkey. He's out of contract on Sunday anyway.
Maybe he'll be company for Ospina who, yet again, is rumoured to be off there.
As Cech has been given the No1 shirt and we've just signed Leno seems much more likely this time.

Chambers is signing a new 4 year deal just a year after signing one before. Ramsey looks likely to stay with a significantly improved contract.

Torriera just isn't being announced yet, presumably waiting till his world cup is over.

...and Fellani is resigning for Utd.  (sighs of relief all round N5)

"Jack Wilshere undergoes West Ham medical ahead of free transfer from Arsenal"

https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/jack-wilshere-undergoes-west-ham-medical-ahead-of-free-transfer-from-arsenal-a3880951.html

West Ham are being linked to everybody by lazy journalists but at least he wouldn't have to uproot his family. Wonder if his pay will be linked to the time spent available to play.

"West Ham have agreed a club-record deal in the region of £35m for Lazio midfielder Felipe Anderson, according to Sky sources.

If Anderson is signed, he would become West Ham's sixth signing of the summer following the additions of Andriy Yarmolenko (£17.5m, Borussia Dortmund), Jack Wilshere (free), Ryan Fredericks (free), Lukasz Fabianski (£7m, Swansea) and Issa Diop (£22m rising to £25m, Toulouse).

The 25-year-old Anderson, capped once by Brazil, joined Lazio from Santos in 2013 and has since scored 34 goals in 177 appearances."

Blimey, the dildo brothers are really splashing the cash.
Add the managers (probably) high salary it's really high numbers. I thought the financial fair play put a stop to clubs buying into the top flight. Not that I'm suggesting West Ham will get into the top 6, I think that's highly unlikely although the odds have dropped dramatically. (I read the headline saying that but didn't open it).

A bunch of players have turned up at Arsenal over the World Cup distraction period, no idea how good any of them are, refuse to be interested until I see them play!

At least we've seen a bit of Torriera playing for Uruguay, looks OK.
The rest I think we're all in the same boat.
Might be worth a look at the first friendly vs Borehamwood tomorrow at 3.00pm. I mean there's nothing else going on at that time.
Might give us an idea of shape, style and even who he's likely to play as I think he'll use every opportunity before the season starts.
