    Rod Thomas was genuinely labelled “the new Pele” when he was a young teenager.

    It's nearly 20 years now since his triple Grammy award winning, Latin fusion hit, Smooth, with wailing guitar solos from Carlos Santana.

    Ha!

    Even by Nordic standards, I thought your English was good.

    What’s happening with that field by Long Lane?

    I believe it's going to be the new school. Will be nothing compared to the disruption caused when they start boring the chalk out for HS2. I would not want to travel on the Uxbridge Road between Mill End and Denham regularly when the whole area is choked by spoil lorries and plant. They have also built an access road onto the M25...that's clever. At least a few business men will be able to get to Birmingham 1/2 hour earlier at the taxpayers expense. On a positive note lets not hang around and get Deulofeu and then Fabianski/ Masina signed ASAP.

    Sounds best to avoid that junction next season.

    Just hearing it’s a done deal. Hopefully there will be some news on this later today, as I can’t find anything on the net to confirm it.

    13 million euros it sez here.

    https://www.sport.es/es/noticias/barca/deulofeu-traspasado-watford-por-millones-euros-6868532

    Gerard Deulofeu will be a Watford player for all purposes next week. In fact, the Catalan striker can already be considered a member of the English side since a few days ago. And is that Bar*a and Watford have closed the last pending fringes and the negotiation of the transfer is finalized, with all contracts duly drafted and signed. Both clubs have agreed that the operation will be made public next week, most likely before the start of the World Cup in Russia.

    Welcome back Gerard!

    This would be a great start to the window... Masina and some other defenders to follow please!

    Oh, and a striker...

    Excellent, I assume the add ons add up to the usual £18.5m?

    Garcia supposedly instrumental in the signing according to some reports.
    Isn't that said of any head coach/manager when their club signs someone?

    In this particular case it's true, as I was hearing this right at the start. This is one in the eye for all those that wanted Gracia out.

    HB1 needs to get this written down now - reported 13 million euros with a possible 2 million euros in add-ons. Great news if true. Rather add-ons than a sell-on fee. Deeney may not have moved in part because of us having to pay Walsall a percentage even after 6 - 7 years. That said if Richarlison moves a hefty 10 - 15 % should be a priority for Gino.

    We owe Fluminese 10% on any future move for him too.

    You sure? Or does this match the £12.5m we paid for Karnesis?

    Is it really? It’s one in the eye for us based on some information that you’ve supposedly heard but won’t divulge further? Got an attack of the ‘ITKJim’s on this one it sounds like.

    You also heard we were paying £12.5m for Karnezis and that turned out to be total bull don’t forget.

    I prefer the cheese jokes to the unnecessary sniping.

    This is a great signing. Let's be happy

    Yes. Easy target. Karnezis did sign though. I understand why people tend not to post what they hear because if some of the details are wrong or it’s not backed up within a few minutes by the net, you get crucified on here.

    I live in Barcelona don’t forget, so I hear things probably quicker than you with this signing.

    Can't wait for his season ending injury after at most half a dozen games. He'll join a Watford tradition.

    Unless you work for FC Barcelona, I bet you hear the same things as anyone else from the internet or the local press (who post stories on their website). You stated on the Karnezis thread in no uncertain terms - Karnezis signs 3 year deal, 11.5m. It was utter tosh other than the fact we did eventually get him on loan. It was a total lie which you are backing up as having some truth because he eventually came in a totally different deal.

    This is off topic so I won't continue. If you believe it's 'one in the eye for those who wanted Gracia gone', I suggest you take time to go over some of your not too distant previous posts where you too suggested he should go. But low and behold, he didn't, so now thats your opinion too. Changes like the wind really.

    Pleasantly surprised that no-one attempted to hijack this deal (that we know of). Kudos to all parties for not dragging it out; the longer Gracia has to work with key players like Gerard the better.
