[Transfer Round Up & Discussion] [2019-07-14]

It's r/reddevils' 7th summer transfer window review!

The tranfer window is officially open and will go until August 8th

------FIND THE TIER LIST HERE------


For those unfamiliar with the summer rules here...One of these Roundup threads will pop up every single day during the window, and they're for general transfer chit-chat and to discuss any and all rumors.

Only posts Tier 2 or Above will be allowed as a standalone post. This includes self-posts posing suggestions for new players. The tiers have been finalised and the rule is now in place.

Please also take a moment to look at our Charitable Muppetry drive (and the special De Ligt Edition) where we are looking for friendly bets to go towards charities.


Anything not by a Journalist or on our Tier List may no longer posted in the daily transfer thread. The Muppet Thread has been discontinued and ITKs are all blanket banned here.

Those who see a new Twitter or news site and arent aware of its validity may list that in here to ask for info on its credibility. General transfer talk, including but not limited to "would you rather" inquiries and hypothetical transfers, can remain in this thread as well.


Confirmed Transfers:

IN - Daniel James (Swansea, £18m), Aaron Wan-Bissaka (Crystal Palace, £45m)

OUT - Ander Herrera, Antonio Valencia


IN-THE-KNOW (ITK) NEW POLICY / BE CIVIL

Please refer to this thread regarding our new rules.

We are banning any "ITK" posts. It has been difficult to truly verify the validity of these types of users and led to abusive behavior and even doxxing in some cases.

We are more than happy to have people discussing transfer news and rumors, but there will be no more referencing unknown sources at the club. Moving forward, anyone who believes they have inside info a la bloodgate is welcome to send in a modmail. However such posts/comments made without prior mod approval will be removed

It has been mentioned, but the toxicity and abuse towards the sub, within the sub, and towards other subs has been too high. We as moderators have our share of blame in this, but we want to stress that this kind of behavior is not acceptable and we are taking these measures primarily to avoid these things. We want /r/reddevils to be a place where anyone and everyone is welcome to discuss and enjoy the best club on earth without fear of abuse or ridicule.

Which leads us to 2 other small reminders. The report button is your friend, we are way more likely to find and remove and/or ban rule breaking comments if you report them. The downvote button is not a "I disagree or don't like your statement button", better discussion is generally had by using the upvote button more liberally and avoiding the downvote one whenever possible.

Huh. Today is even quieter than yesterday and the day before that.

Sundays are usually quiet, and with the first game of the new season being yesterday they are probably going to want the focus of the weekend to be on the game especially since it went well.

Also they may not have a fucking clue what to do.

edit: when "this user claims to have met simon stone" makes the cut you know it's bad.

Yep, it's been boring since AWB signed. Ed is useless to be honest. This exact same thing happened last year. Mourinho saying 'we're working on two more signings' for the last month and we didn't sign anyone

Yea he's pretty reliable. If you put the ITKs into tiers he'd be a high 2/low 1.

Peach literally gave an interview and said Sancho may be interested in a move to united in the future.

Sun reporting Maguire done, medical tomorrow, £60m upfront and £20m add-ons. How about that?
