Transfer Rumours Summer window thread

[Tel (they/them)]

He was on my b list with Jon Dahl tomasson and de Jong that just signed for Barcelona.

And remember when you signed Rooney... oh, oh that’s right it was us.

 

[Fox Mulder]

I was saving Andy Cole in case someone threw a curveball

 

[Peej]

Don’t forget Newcastle legend, Ian Rush.

John Barnes, player and coach?

 

[Fox Mulder]

Then Owen

 

[Tel (they/them)]

Trying to think of any strikers we have signed that have been flops.

Falcao was one.

Forlan didn’t do too much but remains a cult hero.

Apart from those two I can’t think of any. Maybe Owen the scouse ****.

Hughes
Cantona
Cole
Yorke
Sheringham
Ole
Ruud
Saha
Rooney
Tevez
Berbatov
RVP
Hernandez
Martial
Ibrahimovic
Lukaku
Cavani
Ronaldo

Not a bad bunch!

Who was having a pop?

I read it wrong, Tobes. Soz.

Give over mate I'll give you defoeand Welbeck wasn't bad but the rest are all ****e or were by the time you got them

Aye, Bent was ****e banging in 25 goals a season compared to Rondon's 11

Love how you champion the deluded tag your supporters have up and down the country

 

[Saf]

Lol Shearer was crap along with Bellamy malcolm Mcdonald, saha, asprilla, Ferdinand, beardsley, kluivert, ba, just to name a few.

If you can give me a better list from Everton or Sunderland I'll go further mate.


If there's an area we've had good players it's up top

Malcolm McDonald

 

[Tel (they/them)]

I’m taking bare heat in the tags. Ponky must have been very foamy over the video link I posted.

 

[Saf]

Saha for Newcastle?! On loan, played 11 games, scoring once!
He scored four for us and he was only at Spurs for about ten minutes.
Also played for Sunderland for a similar spell and failed to score at all.
Drop him from both lists.

He hasn't got a clue, man. That's why he's fun to have around

The debate is simply the players that have been there mate

I'd probably put Martial and Lukaku in the underwhelming category. Surprised at the time inter paid so much for him considering you boys were desperate to get rid (similar with us and Morata the spanish pansy). Martial was an expensive youth signing (probs similar to rooney style) who started on fire but has gotten worse and worse each year. If you had got them at lower fees then it'd have been decent signings but the cost per performance probably go more on the flop side

Mate he listed Defoe and he was past his best, but he played there, so I replied with a list.

If we're talking about players that scored more that 250 prem goals for the club or something then can we set the criteria prior?

Defoe is about 40 and he's still better than Rondon.

You have just reminded me actually. This is how good Jermain was for Sunderland

****ing have it up ya scumbags. I loved this one he scored at the scrapyard.

His best premier league goalscoring figures were at Sunderland once we decided to remove him from playing at right back.

Don't ever change from being a clueless knacker when it comes to football

I'm just waiting for Peej to shut Munse up with Dixie Deans exploits.

I don't know how I could ever mention him, especially not in the debate that has Demba Ba FFS!

 

[Fox Mulder]

And remember when you signed Rooney... oh, oh that’s right it was us.

Yeah we bid 20 odd, but at the time nufc was a top 4 club..

It was the Chelsea takeover that did for us... We were about to sign Drogba.. They bought half of Europe the next season, nufc Dropped to 5th and some thick Geordie ****s blamed Robson

 

[Fox Mulder]

I don't know how I could ever mention him, especially not in the debate that has Demba Ba FFS!

Look at this list.. Look at the list of names and the numbers

You said ba was ****.

You know nothing about football...

****ing hell, we used to have a dreadful record for big name striker signings prior to Cantona.

Gary Birtles, Peter Davenport, Terry Gibson, Peter Beardsley, Alan Brazil, pretty sure there's more during Sexton and Atkinson days.

Was Brian McClair who came in and broke the 20 goal duck and then Eric followed him.

Everyone since been pretty good, yeah.
