Stand down everybody, it's not us.
Were they to have written:-
Baumann is currently losing at poker with a Premier League club over a transfer in the summer break.
We'd know he was in the area.

Blimey, if this happens we could almost be done by June 
Might mean you post less drivel ?

It is clear that we are trying to get the main deals done before the World Cup.
Winstano is in Europe before the cup, will return for 4 weeks watching the TV, and then will have 4 weeks in England trying to persuade any professional northerners to move south, while Barber ties up the annual loan from Chelsea.
So there still should be stuff to look forward to in August.

Not for those who will still be proclaiming we need a new RB, new LB, new CB, new DM, new AM ad a new winger it won't!
Well we defo need a new LB and RB

Agreed, but many clubs promote youth players from other positions into the senior squad by using them as fullbacks, so do any of our best u23s fit the bill?
The more I think about it, if we were to sign Delaney, the more likely we are to change our formation. But a 433 would marginalise Gross, so perhaps 5-3-1-1 is the future? If so we are going to need to find a couple of Kyle Walkers.

If we get Delaney and an attacking midfielder ( and sort out the keeper situation ), we can pretty much go with what we've got. This rest is squad 'tinkering'.

21st June - Denmark v Australia.
I'll be in Samara at the game, so I have a chance to possibly see two Brighton players face each other.
Fingers crossed it's us he wants to sign for.

That’s a bit insulting to our captain! We have a very decent right-back imho - agree that we do need another younger option though?
Getting all our business done BEFORE the World Cup would be superb.

That didn't take long!
Maybe more a case of Delaney or an attacking midfielder, but I agree about the rest being squad tinkering. We don't need - and certainly won't get! - anything like a whole new team.
We have two LBs, neither of whom is at the end of his contract
We do need a back-up for El Capitan though

The way I see it, if Delaney signed for us it would mean Propper could play sometimes where he does now and sometimes in the Gross role. That way, with rotation, all three of them, plus Dale, would be getting regular games.

That would be Schelotto (sp?) then - although I think El Capitan might be the one who is the back up next season.
