Transfer Window Thread

A lot of money for Cucurella!

Could be a one season wonder. Baffling decision. He was good last season, so was Lamptey before he got injured, you wouldn’t see a 50m for Lamptey, or Livramento.

Good move for Duffy. Hopefully he plays regularly and stays fit. Ireland need his leadership and set piece threat. I saw on the42 someone referred to him as the Messi of the Air, great Bantz.

True - with possible exception of Costa, they've never really had anyone come close to Drogba and Costa headed off in acrimony after three years there.

Shevchenko
Torres (to an extent)

It seems Chelsea medics said there was no way Torres would pass the medical, Abromovich said he was passing the test no matter what,

Pato, Falcao, Remy, Batshuayi

Giroud was pretty low key, but is arguably the once they've got best value from since Costa.
