Transfer rumour thread 19/20

[tHeArAb]

quite surprised how most people on here are not too concerned at your lack of activity in the transfer market considering you couldn't get out of the worst championship in living memory and have lost your main striker...but as they say time will tell

Probably due to the fact there is still 2 months of the transfer window left and only the deadwood are available at this time of the window.

the way I see it, they are in the same state we were in 3 years ago, with a rookie gaffer.

They are jubilant with their signings, they don’t even remotely seem pissed off they got relegated. And I’ll tell you why that is.

United stayed down.

[PartyFears2]

if they finish say 5th / 6th this season, and United don’t go up, it won’t even register as a bad season. And I know I am 100% correct here.

Its early days but they seem to be having orgasms over their signings so far. Understandable given what they've had to endure. That makes them better but by how much?
Time to make comparison is when both clubs have finished their business. One thing I wont be doing is writing anyone in this league off.

Interesting that they've gone to La Manga for training because its 31 degrees here at 8pm tonight. Not sure that's ideal for training. Most local games in the summer are played 9pm onwards.

Also interesting to see that they were all for signing Shankland last January, very excited they were, but now hes linked with us he's suddenly injury prone and no very good. Usual Dee luded stuff. Why cant fans just say I'd be pissed off if he signs for the opposition because hes a good player. Is that too grown up?

Let's see what it looks like in a few weeks.

No doubt Shankland is a player and will score 20+ in this league which could be the difference between going up and staying down... But would be surprised if he doesn't move to England....think we've made decent signings...no more than that and still need another striker...but I think we'll be starting this season with the best looking squad we've had since 2015/16 and against lesser opposition we should be ok...maybe even start winning at Dens again 😋

The great thing about McPake is he'll get a very long honeymoon even if it goes tits up by December. Dee fans seem to have different rules for managers depending on whether they played for the club or not.

Don't disagree about McPake...but it's similar on your side of the road... there's no way Shabba would've got away with some of the decisions and ultimate failure to go up that Neilson has been afforded...but will be interesting to see how is honeymoon period lasts if we start well and you don't...anyway time will tell

Don't think Neilson is getting any leeway because he played for us. I can't really agree with the comparison. And if you recall a lot of Dees were wanting Neilson. Fact.

I'm happy at the majority of our signings some I don't know to much about.Forster,Byrne and Ness are imo a big improvement on what we had.
McGee Mcdaid,Todd and marshal I don't know to much about.
Nelson shud have fun in this league tho.

When fit Eric. And don't underestimate teams in this league. The bottom half scrap for their lives. Your signings are streets ahead of what you had, but will that be good enough? We'll see
