Summer Transfer Rumour Thread.

I think it is JR's dad, but in the fleeting nature of the player clip, the 2 look remarkably similar.

 

Oh well, I've started a thread on Saintsweb now so I'll see how long the mongs on there believe it for.

 

He's crap, had him before. (Note, not saying crap in real life because I genuinely don't know)

 

Having a look at the bloke on youtube, for certain he is a beast. Wins majority of headers, passing looks pretty decent (long + short), reminds me a lot of Hooiveld but this guys presence would make anyone crap their pants he is huge!!

 

wait so we think were going to sign this player because we think he may have been at the picture part with rodriguez (when he wasnt) C'mon guys we need these rumours to have some legs on them!

 

Apparently the Sibley man mentioned something about via a tweet. I may have that completely wrong though.

It's back up in the thread somewhere.

 

It is Jay Rodriguez's dad, who is over twice Aymen Abdennour's age and looks nothing like him!

In any case why would Aymen Abdennour be at Jay Rodriguez's unveiling and having pictures with him and Rodriguez's agent? Do you not think Rodriguez, Rodriguez's dad and Rodriguez's agent make a lot more sense to be in a photo?

The man you think is a 21 year old Tunisian international...

Good detective work, where ever did you find those pictures?

Nicer formatting than my post to be fair, ha.

 

Man Utd have officially signed Nick Powell

 

so thats another talented young english guy thats going to to get a square arse sitting on the bench, when he should have signed for us and got playing time

 

West Ham are apparently after Krasic and Elia from Juventus...

Can't see Spam being relegated tbh.

 

I'd be very surprised if he wasn't loaned out.

 

west ham in talks with diame. he is class. why cant we go for him. free transfer so can afford slightly higher wages. would west ham blow us out the water?

 

Yes. They were paying Nolan 50k a week in the Championship ffs.

I really would've loved Diame as well, just what we need.

 

I think they are mad with the amount they pay in wages as they don't have much success, they waste a lot of money whereas you pay less and play better football, look at how West Ham played last season, they ended up lucky to go up where as you and Reading played much better overall.

 

Let them splash 60k per week at players like Diame only to play the "fat sam way" and not get much success...Yeah they wont be relegated but still prefer to be in our shoes and management.

 

To be fair though we have more financial backing it's just spent prudently.

Also the comment on powell to united ruining him is harsh, united are VERY good at producing and improving young players. Everyone seems to think arsenal is the place to go as a youngster but for the 8-2 game united had a young average side, and as a whole are better at blooding young players.

 

I don't think Diame is worth anything near 60k a week, what a waste on a player who is not going to stand out, for a club like West Ham they should only be paying a max of 40k a week while they are in and around the bottom of the table.

 

Still not seeing where this has come from. Sibley hasn't mentioned any fioreign/international players as far as I can see.

 

He definitely did say it, but he seems to have deleted the tweet now?
