Just a post to remind us all on here that we are in a highly privileged position to have people willing to give us information that we wouldn't be in a position to have normally. Carra, The Fields, Victor G, Robbo and Ned don't need to tell us anything, yet they do. We forget that transfers are complex things and there are a lot of moving parts. Interest in a player doesn't mean we get them, in fact, having a player do the first signing interviews and media doesn't mean the player is signing (remember Fekir?) So when we are told it's a done deal, it could very well be at that point.
But things happen last minute, teams come in late with better offers, players and clubs change their minds. It's evident that their information is credible; it's also fact that they were new posters once too. So instead of giving them and new posters that may be credible grief, appreciate the fact they give us their time and information. If their information is wrong, that doesn't mean that isn't what they were told. So to everyone mentioned above that has shared rumours and to the new posters doing the same. Thank you.

100% Scousedel, people are too quick to judge. The posters you name post what they hear in good faith. But things can change; a nailed-on transfer deal could be scuppered, and one can just come out of the blue without warning.
These people share what they know, when they know it. People shouldn't bash them if everything they share doesn't come off.
