Still got five to go on my list.

David

Fofana

Weiffer

Todibo 

pick your own right back for the fifth player, I like a lot of them at the moment. You can apparently get the first 4 of those for 100m

Good for Brentford,  very very good talent and will get plenty of game time at Brentford.  Probably the right step for him and a great buy for Brentford.

I bet the Leeds fans are livid that Brentford can pick up their best players and they can’t even put a fight.

It’s partly because I don’t know what he wants, I suspect it’s the only position on the team where supporters don’t know what he wants his player to do yet.

I don’t think so to be honest, the club has been put back into a financial mess again. They had a load of future payments to make for their signings in the premier league.

Archie Gray is still out with Chinese burns to his neck isn't he?

Brentford buying 18 year olds for £35m

The PL is the super league 

It should be checked for fair value by the league. Kellyman was only 19m and he's 18

And Leeds are no doubt only doing it for the same FFP reasons

True!

Some good players on that list too though!

I wonder if Chelsea benefit from Juve selling Iling-Junior to us? 

[HeyAnty]

What happened the athletico free agent guy?  He sign for someone yet or are we waiting to 1st July to announce

Thanks Brentford/Leeds for setting the fair market value!

I don't think he has signed for anyone!

Can we pick our own striker and centre back too please? 

It's all subjective and I respect that you're suggesting actual players. I just think David is somewhat overrated (bit flat track bully) and that we can get better than Todibo for the money.

Completely agree on the positions of need, however would like one of the midfielders to be a bit more of a creative type

Be interesting to see how they do this season as Toney and MBuemo both want moves but this is a big investment for them. Helps our market value arguments though 

[Pongo Waring]

Hope we hijack Gray.

Same here. 

He is one of those players who just oozes class. I remember randomly sitting down a few years ago and seeing a Reading match  with Olise playing,  and he was so effortly better than everyone else it was hilarious. 

I've only seen Gray play a few times but he has just stood out massively every time.

Clever move for the kid that is probably going to be sold for double that in a few years. 

Could have made the big move now and have to wait a few years but instead will play regular football.
