Dowell's restart form has changed his career after three wilderness loans. Figured MW mightve been looking at him as our kind of post-Eze salvage job before that. Norwich already leading the justice league table if fanalytics Twitter's opinion of their signings is anything to go by. | | | |

Somone's got over excited on his Wiki page: On 30 July 2020, Dowell joined Championship big boys Norwich City on a three-year deal. Maddison v2 said he is "ready to score 70 yarders for fun" on his first day with the club and reportedly nutmegged everyone he walked past whilst being given a tour of the facilities including Head Coach Daniel Farke and Sporting Director, Stuart Webber. Alex Tettey recalls a time where he was making cups of tea for the entire squad and when he would pour the milk in, Dowell would hit volleys low and hard just above the mug and let the air of the ball mix the milk and tea together https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kieran_Dowell | | | |

Bournemouth about to sell Ake for £41m and Wilson for £30m with a parachute payment too, so it seems my initial hope that Villa not coming down and skewing the transfer market again may be unfounded. Pesky hope. | | | |

£41m for Ake leaves only another £40m they still owe other clubs. | | | |

Ake, Wilson, Brooks plus a parachute. Still got some quality Champ players on top of that, depends how many they need to shift wage wise I guess. Interesting case. | | | |

It's getting a bit like Hull that situation - Allams/Ashley insist they want to sell, but never quite manage to. | | | |

Other clubs transfers - summer thread on 16:33 - Jul 30 with 2488 views | derbyhoop | Ake was on big money with no relegation clause, so they don't really have a choice but to sell. Wilson was never going to stay at Championship level. Bournemouth - depends who they bring in Norwich - spent v little in PL so that can do a Burnley/WBA and eventually build a proper PL club. | |

Other clubs transfers - summer thread on 16:37 - Jul 30 with 2478 views | Myke | What pees me off about transfers, especially QPR inward transfers is that they take like FOREVER to get over the line. Take Moore for example, it's nearly 2 weeks since our bid was 'accepted'. Back in the day, once that happened, the lad would have a medical, agree personal terms and transfer would be announced. Same with BOS outgoing - it's just nonsense. Going even further back in the day (80's) a fan wouldn't hear about a deal until it was completed. I know a huge amount of speculation is just that, unsubstantiated speculation, but if a fee has been accepted - what's the hold up? The only swift transfer that took me completely by surprise recently was Furlong to WBA (not including 'unknowns' like Thomas) The rest of our ins and outs and with other clubs too, goes on and on and... | | | |

Said this before but I really don't get Norwich's approach this last season. Burnley had a proper Championship grafter's team and run down facilities and it was always unlikely they could compete for survival without overspending. Norwich had a young and exciting team and a real opportunity to grow the club on maybe the best foundations any promoted side has had for decades. The youth system was healthy and their finances modest but not in any strife plus with the £150m guaranteed. How much more did they need to be a proper PL club? They should have been another Wolves let alone better than Sheff Utd. Yet as soon as the form got rocky they seemed to put the cue on the rack and settle for relegation. Half that team - Aarons, Godfrey, Lewis, Buendia, Cantwell - will now be going straight off to big sides for big money. Maybe they'll build another good team now, but if everything goes perfectly they'll still only be right back where they started. If relegation happens it happens - but why repeat the moneyball phase all over again nearly on purpose? | | | |

I really hope not. It would be great if we're continuing to be a bit cannier. In the bad old days, we leaked like a sieve. | | | |

Well, the sold Mings to Villa, who then helps Villa stay up if they had sold Ake earlier and kept Mings or both they may have stayed up. So, while they will get the monies, clearly some bad transfer decisions there. | |

Tough to tell when there's actually been an offer. Have we even made an offer for Moore? Or is it just "sky sports understands" i.e. Wigan, or his agent, have thrown a name out there to try and draw out interest | | | |
