Ketts said there wilł be two to three players coming in this week. They will be Bauer, Bulot and I don't know the third one. These three players coming in from Bournemouth, I haven't a clue about. If it is true it won't be Kermorgant, Ritchie, Daniels or Pugh. I might be wrong but I can't see Bournemouth releasing them.
IF it was true, and the third one is difficult because of who he is, then I'd say it's Ritchie, Pitman and FRANCIS. The reason why Francis would be seen as a problem is because of how crap he was with us the first time around.

He says 'it'll be difficult because of who he is' and then says he doesnt know who they are. Smells strongly of utter bullshit to me. Standard off season nobber in the know.

Of course, its all crap anyway
Would we need Francis? Solly is just about able to play week in week out, Francis playing reserve to Solly doesn't make sense given the excellent season he's just had. He won't be right wing as that is JBG, unless he's on his way???
Isn't it RD's policy not to pay fees for players to other clubs in the same country? Unless the Bournemouth players are on frees i really can't see us splashing any cash on them.
Can anyone clarify which players have been linked with signing for the Cherries ?
This might help us understand who might be seeking to move on....
so far they've signed two very experienced keepers, including Calamity Federici from Reading (but still fundamentally a very good keeper), a Chelsea winger on loan (Chelsea, the loan shop specialists) and the VERY useful midfielder Joshua King from Blackburn .. but where has the presumption that we are gonna provide employment for redundant AFC B players come from ?

They have already signed Norwegian international striker Josh King and have Atsu on a season long loan from Chelsea. He joined Chelsea from Porto. They are rumoured to be signing Luke Garbutt on a season loan from Everton and they have made enquiries about Dwight Gayle
Yann is very popular with Bournemouth fans which shows what a good job he has done for them as he had done for us. I think age is less of a factor for him as long as he is fit as he doesn’t rely on pace at all. Having said that, hard decisions have to be made when you jump from the Championship to the Premiership if you want to stay up which I think Bournemouth are going to try to do by spending a bit! You can see why Bournemouth may think they need to let Yann go. I don’t think he wants to go and I’m sure he wants a crack at the Premiership – so seeing as he is under contract with them I can only see him being told he definitely won’t play any games as a reason for him to leave. In that scenario, we would seem to be a good option, but we would presumuably would have to match the contract he has which we were not ready to pay previously. Lots of Ifs and buts in there. My guess would be this might be a deal for the winter.
Thanks Fanny. Slightly off track here, but I think the countries that compete in the commonwealth games should make a rule where if one of them win an Olympics, they automatically get the next commonwealth games. Whilst the commonwealth games is smaller, it is still significant and this would make the financial commitments much more viable.

That's OK there will be loads of grown men on here crying just as the vinegar stroke finishes
I would love it if it happened but not gonna get to excited yet. Imagine Yann with Watt and Igor.
Compared to recent offerings, it was a good rumour and filled a few pages. Let's chuck some new names of the chosen 3 out there
Michael Turner
Dan Gosling
Lewis McGugan
Of course, its all crap anyway
As for us getting 3 of their players---maybe but it wont be till they have assembled their Prem squad
The rumour mill really is in full swing now
