There's always lots of speculation, 90% generated by agents. Might be good to have 1 thread.
I don't understand the speculation that has linked us with Adam Matthews from Sunderland, Adam Maher from AZ Alkmaar and Liam Kelly from Livingstone.
Matthews is a RB where we have Furlong, Rangel and Kakay
Maher is a midfielder where, even if Freeman goes, we're not short of options.
Kelly is a keeper. We have Lumley, Ingram and Dieng, unless the latter goes to Glasgow Rangers. |  |

I thought the Cardiff keeper was up for sale so he could be number one next year |
Yup, The Cardiff fans I know reckon Etheridge will move on and Smithies will be #1, though their new lad may push him. |  | | |

Bristol City add to their defence with the perm move for Kalas after the excellent DaSilva. They have more money but you have to say, they use it well |  |

Oh God..... please don’t let Smithies sign for Bentford!!!! |
Think the Spanish keeper from Blackburn is going to Brentford isn't he? Raya? |  | | |

Agreed but mainly because it looks a weakened field so far. They're still just retaining what they had (and what stumbled at the finish line) last time, so I don't know whether they need something extra or a year's maturity will do the trick. And if Webster leaves it's obviously a step back even for a big fee.
Funnily enough that's probably a side that could do with loaning Wells, Hemed and Cameron for a season... |  | | |

The Alan Judge to QPR rumour is back again. Signed by and played under Warburton before but incredibly injury prone. Lazy journalism or something in it? |  |

He signed a two year deal with Ipswich in April, when he knew they were going down. Have he and Ipswich changed their mind on that already? Really odd that this keeps coming up. | | | |

That it was.
Still think there might be one or two incoming, if we can shift Smith, Luongo and / or Freeman.
Lord knows who though. The previous 5 flew under the radar until they were pretty much nailed-on. Presumably their agents were Guy Incognito and Sneaky Sneakerson. |  |

Feel like maybe all the fans of Warbs' former clubs love a gleeful click to prove he just signs his old muckers... | | | |

God I recall him away at charlton and thought he was the second coming of Rio Ferdinand |  |
| And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

Luke Amos came across very well in his interview on the club website and he ended with a nice little joke about us expecting a lot of wins. |  |

Heard a rumour that we are considering Dominic Ball, centre half CDM released by Rotherham but spent last season at Aberdeen. |  |

Well he was with Warburton at Watford and Rangers so it could be true. | | | |

After Amos and Smith, we seem to have sorted defence and midfield. Now, we need the expensive option - a striker who can get into double figures. Hogan or Davis from Villa? | |

We need a striker. Any striker. We’re 5 weeks away and for all these pre-season games and training we don’t have enough strikers in the club to play a training match. |  | | |

It's weird. I'm sure there are moves coming (both ways) but based on the current squad a couple of days ago you'd say we were well covered at center midfield but extremely light up front.
Then we sign two center midfielders and sell one striker. |  | | |

I see Che Adams has signed for Southampton for about £15mill
Brings me back to that point about him being worth three and half Charlie Austin’s
Or three times as much as Freeman?
Adams is a good player but is that the market rate?
Brum in a similar financial state to us but they’ve negotiated a decent fee there |  |

He's 22 years old and is a striker whos career looks set to improve.
Freeman is 27 years old and is arguably at his peak |  |

At his peak = decent price can be extracted from a club looking for an instant fix to their aspirations
Alternatively........ buy and lease back Loftus Road and build a team around him of hungry young talent and established experience with goals in them | |

In comedy news, Lee Cattermole has somehow got another Championship deal at Sheff Wed.
Through sobs over the WhatsApp, our Sheff Wed man tells me he thinks Jake Bidwell is going on their tour next week as a trialist. | | | |

At his peak also means he will very soon be in decline with no resale value , add our situation with FFP into the mix and it's always going to be lower price than some fans expect | | | |
