Heisenberg Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 “Whether Serdar #Dursun remains at SV Darmstadt 98 is currently unclear. The English second division Derby County continues to dig hard on the Lilien striker. A transfer should still be difficult”. The article basically translates to saying that Derby have made up to 3 bids for the player, with no agreement yet to be found. Darmstadt would be looking for a replacement to be lined up before letting him go elsewhere. One that could go all the way to the deadline on Monday. i-Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope we can get it done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never know. Can still announce Friday and him play Saturday. Deals can be done way before announcements, don’t conflate the two. With him following us and EFL today, I’d say this is pretty much done. Topram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brammie Steve Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 (edited) We have already established the sort of player he is, All we are haggling about is the price! Sounds like it Serdar Dursun deal! Edited September 30, 2020 by Brummie Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The recruitment team have done well so far, a couple of gambles in Ibe and Duncan, but on the whole they have done well. The striker position is absolutely key however and as each game ticks by and each point goes begging, the fact we havent yet signed a replacement for Chris Martin renders the other signings as useless as without the striker, it's quite evident we cant set up as Cocu would like.

Probably half a million quid short of an agreement. Hard times and we need to get good deals but also we need to get points. Is Serdar signable after Monday.

Outgoings can still happen overseas if that country window remains open. That in truth is very few countries. More those whose season is slightly altered such as Norwich and Russia. The deadline for European comps is the 6th hence the date of the 5th. The difference this year is that there is, here anyway, a domestic window that runs until 16th October for EFL and PL clubs. So we can sign players from other EFL and PL clubs regardless of nationality as long as the player registration is already held in this country.

Marriot Ram99 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 It's October now we are really taking our merry ducking time to bring a striker in, knowing Derby we will leave it until the deadline miss out on the European strikers then wait until Mid October and sign some donkey on loan to get someone in after not picking any points up by that point.

I would far rather we took the extra fee weeks and got the right player or then a loan that got lumbered with a panic buy.

Same here, but the longer it takes the more we will loose out on points as we are in desperate need of new additions.

I doubt we'd play a new striker so soon after signing - If we sign one ever today they wouldn't have had much time with the squad - I'd expect to see Marriott or Rooney up top on Saturday regardless I also think we need to not being take for a ride - Have you watched the second season of the Sunderland docco and seen what happened with the Will Grigg transfer? Manager very clearly said he was good but but not at any price - Same with Dersun - If we feel like the amount they want for him is ridiculous then it's gonna go down as well as Grigg (or a closer to home example Sammon / Butterfield) Finally (and the biggest one for me) the problems this season haven't been in the striker department - In consecutive games our midfield have failed to create any chances, our defence showed a lack of organisation and then our midfield were unable to provide any defensive cover - It's not like Marriott has missed a hatful of chances or tried hold up play and failed - We've barely got the ball close to him and had woeful defensive lapses - I'm not sure where the desperation for a striker comes from - Dude could score in every game and we'd still lose at the moment Spacehorse and LeedsCityRam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
