All quiet on Egeli front... 11:35 - Aug 28 with 8183 views | BlacknGoldnBlue | With the news of our Norfolk raid and now plundering the WBA defence some more, there hasn't been any more news on Egeli... I wonder if we're still persueing him or decided to invest the money in proven options? Is no news good news or are we about to get a triple reveal of signings today or tomorrow? It certainly isn't boring |  |

I agree, but we aren't Chelsea, and there might be a trade off between this and another player, maybe in another position - who knows? Would be super interesting if we were to find out though |  | |  |

It's probably quite a bit of our remaining budget to use up on what is predominantly potential. Possible that he just wanted confidence that some other deals would go through at the price we thought they would do before we spend the rest of the kitty on him? |  |

All quiet on Egeli front... on 17:00 - Aug 28 by Joey_Joe_Joe_Junior | To be honest I trust the PSV scouts and other European links over a good year in the champ for the likes of Jack Clarke. Really hope it's not us that turn this down. Even if it doesn't work out I like the ambition with this one compared to some of the others. [Post edited 28 Aug 17:00]

Ruud Gullit... Paul Gascoigne... We wouldn't let a potential gem slip through our fingers would we? We don't tend to operate like that any more. |  | |  |

I'd be absolutely gutted if we don't do this considering the money we have chucked around recently, even if it didn't work out tbh. I'm not breaking any news here as I my news is basically TWTD and a few whatsapp groups but it's at the end of KOA show this morning. We have clearly been sitting on it. |  |

The amount of top teams that have been monitoring Egeli (and the fact he's already a full international) gives me hope that not only is he a prospect but also capable of making an impact straight away. I do hope we don't let this slip by, I do hope KM doesn't regret not acting.... Time will tell |  |

Right, capped at 18, PSV almost had a deal ready to go, just do it! [Post edited 28 Aug 17:21]

Happy to waste funds on the leicester fella tho. |  |

He knows what McAteer can bring now and doesn't know how long it will take Egili to adapt to England and the pace and physicality of the Championship is probably his concern. However, I am all in on him and my gut feeling is we will regret it big time if we don't. I would rather come up short being aggressive in the European market than playing safe (and maybe not so safe) in the EFL market all the time, especially with the fees we are chucking about. |  |

All quiet on Egeli front... on 15:42 - Aug 28 by Joey_Joe_Joe_Junior | Bad comparison as this one has been linked all over, just gone quiet last few days. It's no great surprise we got Nunez, McAteer and Furling done fast considering the fees we were offering tbh. |
Fair points. This chap does seem to be harder to do, with the club at least as he seems up for it. |  |

Absolute b0ll0x. Fcuking infuriates me some peoples reactions to McAteer’s signing. Pathetic. |  |

Calm yourself. It's not about the player. More funds spent on one who i don't think we needed personally. |  |

So if it’s not about the player why are you concerned about the money? I couldn’t give a sh!t how much someone costs as long as they’re good players and contributing to whatever cause it is we’re working towards. If Ashton and McKenna are happy with the deal, that’s all particularly matters. |  |

I'm not concerned about money. Just find it odd he's sitting on the Norway fella signing but happy enough to put the money out for the leicester fella Relax. It's just football. |  |

It seems a bit odd to get McAteer in if we were always wanting this chap. That’s about 4-5 right wingers/inside right forwards on the books. Maybe that’s why KM is having a long think - we don’t need Egeli and he would lead to issues finding playing time for the others, although you’d think the potential development and resale opportunity is attractive. |  |

Nunez, Furlong and Azon. Then we are done unfortunately |  | |  |
All quiet on Egeli front... on 18:27 - Aug 28 with 755 views | ITFC_Follower | its nice they are reinvesting in the squad, might as well get this young Norwegian lad in too 3m loan option to buy instead for 15m? upfront cash on promotion? might be a better deal for us as we can see if he turns out to be good enough. if not or we dont get promoted worth a try. |  |

I would imagine so, don’t think there is any room for more money to be spent. Done over £30m, which is a good chunk, plus we are needing to bridge the financial gap dropping back to the Championship. Can’t spend like you’re guranteed to get promoted again, because we look like a side far from guranteed at the moment. |  | |  |

McAteer for Hutchinson and no Egili is underwhelming if it turns out to be the case. Hopefully Ogbene has a big part to play as well then. |  |
