I’m yet to be impressed by Mr. Rooney, however that will ultimately change if he can influence some talent to come over to Derby for a year or two! Right then.. who can we loan from Salford this season? Bubbles 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carnero Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Jon Obi Mikel released by Stoke. Possible option to keep an eye on as cover for Bielik? Davies-Mikel-Kazim would at least give us an experienced spine to work around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would imagine his wages would be prohibitive. Also at 36, 34 and 34 that would be a spine as creaky as mine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maydrakin Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Sergio Ramos, Jerome Boateng and Messi all available on frees. Just saying… ? None of them need the cash and might want to help their mate out, however based on the rules, two of them might not get work permits! (That would be our luck, that they agree to join and then fail to get one!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFC1388 Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 I do wonder if behind the scenes we do have incoming players pretty much lined up & done but we need the embargo lifted so we can fulfill the contracts we have offered them? Although you would think Mengi's wages would fall under the embargo amount so could be announced sooner but I'm sure I read previously that United were waiting to see what division we're in so maybe that loan deal rests on the EFL's appeal.

All moan about him getting around the pitch and no turn of pace and gets bypassed in midfield. Sounds like huddlestone without the passing ability.

Ambitious Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 First time I've had a proper look at the out of contract players knocking about, that we could sign within Brexit Britain. It's not a great list. I've never been a fan, but honestly I'm looking at Berardi as someone who can play across the back four and thinking it's genuinely just about getting the bodies in. Fuchs, perhaps he fancies staying local? I'd even give Pablo Hernandez a call to see if he fancies another crack at the Championship. The likes of Reach, Diedhiou, Assombalonga, etc are going to be highly sought after as out of contract players make perfect commercial sense in the current climate. I think they will be pushed above what we're ultimately allowed to offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up to 6 points for league minutes (90%+) So they need another 3 points either from continental competition (up to 4 points if 90% minutes and final) or from national team games A key one is national team where you can automatically pass if you're a regular of a top 50 world rankings nation (currently includes Costa Rica, Ghana, Egypt, Jamaica, Korea) Anag Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
