A quick question. If this was a done deal 2 weeks ago what would be the point in waiting this long to do a medical and make it official? I very much hope we look to strengthen the fullback position but I fear we won't (for the 20th straight transfer window!!) Not unusual with transfers, refer to Rice to Arsenal took weeks finalising details.

Clearly no deal was struck or fee agreed for ages after this, the guy was in match squads for goodness sake. The blind defence of all this is mental. The guy is laughing at all of you

We are also looking at bringing in Lewis Hall on loan. This heated up on Twitter yesterday eve. We were rumoured with him at the start of the window, Chelsea have at least 2 or 3 left backs ahead of him and Mitchell has picked up an injury. So would seem like a logical move. I'd hope it'd include an option to buy but doubt there will be one.

The player may of been in a match day squad, but didn’t play.

Dazza, ignore the haters. It's misplaced frustration for the club's inabilty to close deals quickly. Has always been the case with us. Please continue to post/share news, even if it doesn't come to fruition, it's entertaining still and I follow this thread closely for updates, instead of random transfer accounts on twitter. It's the hope that kills us! Wise words indeed .

The blind defence of all this is mental. The guy is laughing at all of you Precisely! The deal was NOT complete and neither was there a medical booked. Prior to the 28/07/23 we had not reached an agreement with Flamengo. On the 29/07/23 an improved offer was submitted and finalised yesterday (30/07). Cahê Mota, the reporter for Flamengo in Rio de Janeiro stated the deal was completed yesterday (30/07) and a medical has been booked for today (Monday).

You have a poor memory, he said a deal had been agreed to be confirmed, nothing about being completed.

Actually, Dazza said done deal, medical over the weekend and to be unveiled by Tuesday…two weeks ago. I think we can all agree that was incorrect. I’ve got no problem with his posts. I can see why people get frustrated though. Almost none of what he says comes true…and I believe that is a blocker for genuine conversation. How are fans supposed to have a discussion when half the room completely believes Dazza, and the other half don’t believe a word of it.

How are fans supposed to have a discussion when half the room completely believes Dazza, and the other half don’t believe a word of it. I certainly believe he’s read it somewhere else. I’ve got some pretty decent connections within the club and I can’t find out a thing. This is for a reason!

Well done sir.

I'd recommend Dazza to start his posts with 'Apparently' Might make it feel more like passing on transfer gossip, rather than implying that he's ITK
