    My guess is one of them is Sam Baldock as I've just read Bristol City have had a bid accepted for Kieran Agard

    Heard hes going Leeds
  • Would love Baldock to come to us. Top scorer in League One last season and could make the step up IMHO..

    A cat?

    Is Peter Bonetti coming out of retirement?
  • So are we signing another striker?

    They were joint top with 24.. Baldock's on the last year of his contract though I think so would probably be cheaper than assombalonga who has another three years at the Posh.. Think Bristol city will want to cash in on him before he leaves (which he most likely will) next year on a free.

    Which is close to 8.. Didn't Atletico say a new number 8 and a number close to it..

    It doesn't mean that the players possibly coming in are already playing as a number 8 (or close thereto) but that they will take those numbers from our squad list this coming season

    Although, saying that, didn't Juan Mata have the number 8 jersey at Old Trafford last season?
  • I'm curious as to how Atletico knows this.. Has he been right in the past about rumours?

    That's what I'm saying..
  • Athletico still hasn't said "Its not Scott Parker".

    Or Bahebeck.. Or Wood.. Can he not just tell us who it is? And/or when it's happening?

    Bahebeck is away in China with PSG, so I doubt it'd be him.

    and Wood travelled with the Leicester City squad to Malaysia so it probably isn't him either.

    Maybe RD is out scouting the far east for a new club and will sign them both whilst he is out there

    Baldock makes sense aswell, Bristol City have made a bid for Agard, a probable replacement.

    No, if we gave them Church they'd demand a lot more than £500k

    150 posts to find out we're signing someone who's squad number will be 8 and another player who's squad number will be 6, 7, 9, or 10. Most cryptic rumour on here ever!

    No it isn't. You were saying how Baldock would be a good bet as he had the number 9 shirt at Bristol City - that's the opposite of what I said

    No. 8 - Under
    No. 9 - whelmed

    Two very good signings this week would see even me optimistic for the new season.

    I shall assume my usual position though in preparation, as mrbligh has qualified, "I'll take an 8 and a 9 Rachael.."
