Summer 2014 Transfer rumour thread - Part VIII

Depends how much Koeman rates Ramirez

At the moment you'd expect him and Davis to be competing for the more advanced central midfield role. JWP scored a nice goal yesterday but I think he is better playing slightly deeper, the same for Morgan, Cork & Reed(based on u21s).

I don't think it should be ruled out

 

From what I've seen so far I don't think we are going to be playing a traditional no 10 role in the formation, think the CMs will all be deeper

 

Yeah 4-3-3 with one of the 3 further back. 4-1-2-2-1.

 

Certainly how it was last night.

Set up like..

Boruc

Fonte
Yoshida

Clyne
Wanyama
Bertrand

S. Davis
Ward-Prowse

Tadić
Pellè
Isgrove


(in terms of how high up the pitch we played, and who was in line with who)

 

True, but those midfielders are going to need different characteristics and abilities. Feel we need a little more creativity centrally

Boruc to Bayern Munich? Certainly an odd one!

 

Hmm, might go too. In the later years of his career, close to his beloved Poland, big money, no doubt.

Wouldn't blame him, unless he really likes playing.

 

Artur can't go, I draw the line at Artur

Well Shoot! Say we may have the last laugh. And well it carries weight for me because I was an avid trade from about 1977 until 1985

 

"Italy-England, a feeling everything Inter. Coming Medel is that Oswald, greets Taider instead. Operation is virtually complete with Southampton, is understood between both clubs with the Algerian player. Tomorrow evening the match against Roma, then Taider will fly to England to finally complete his transfer. Tuesday expected medical. And the signature. Taider to Southampton, we are. Here is the smoked Saints."

That'll do.

 

Grenier is good but like Gaston I don't really see how he'd fit in.

FM state Taider's position as 'central midfielder / deep lying playmaker / box to box midfielder / advanced playmaker / ball winning midfielder' so where do we see him fitting in bearing in mind who we already have?

 

Cork out!

 

Really don't need Taider, but **** it

Seems a decent prospect though, this lad. It's good to get more bodies in.
