Non-City Transfers Rumours - Summer 2014

The problem with the dramas is that they could suffer with having too many new players on saturday week. It takes time to gell a team together.

++++++++++++++++++++++

WBA Looking to complete the signing of Kris Commons from Celtic for £7m

Saints boss Ronald Koeman looks likely to take free agent Giorgios Samaras from Celtic. Offers for Celtics gk Fraiser Forster and defender Virgil Van Dyke could see all 3 joining before the big ko.

Anton Ferdinand looks likely to sign for Reading on a free transfer.

Another Saints deal that could be completed today is the arrival of Saphir Taider from Inter Milan.

Burnley looking to snap up Henri Lansbury from Nottingham Forest. Forest in turn look to be ahead of the list of clubs wanting Wigan outcast Grant Holt.

Spurs are reported to have offered Vlad Chiriches to Saints in exchange for Morgan Schneiderlin.

Wba have now confirmed the signing of aussie defender Jason Davidson. Wba also complete a deal for Costa Rica international Cristian Gamboa.

Hammers boss Sam Allardyce says that striker Andy Carroll is close to breaking point after his latest injury set back.

Palace striker Glenn Murray is wanted by both Fulham and Reading.

Hatem Ben Arfa has told manager Alan Pardew that he will see out his contract and leave for nothing next summer.
That will cost Newcastle £7m in wages and a lost transfer fee. Ben Arfa hoping that Pardew is sacked within weeks.

The London Times today report that Spurs could be about to sell upto 5 defenders this window.

Will LVG look at Sami Khedira from Real Madrid to solve his midfield problem ? Arsenal now cooling on Khedira.

 

The next Andy Carroll situation maybe ? Hopefully for both parties it works out.

 

Massive gamble...16 games in the past 2 seasons...£13m! Overpaid much!?

 

Gary O'Neil who got sent off for DQPR in the PO final last season has now signed for Norwich City as a free agent.

 

I thought Mutch was less than that?

 

Can you immagine what this board would be like if SB did something like that ?

Makes Prozzie look a bargain from poundland.

 

Arses would be falling out left, right and centre.

 

Without a doubt.

 

Whoa - that's about £4m too much.

He was always talented but infuriating at Forest and Derby, and while he's flourished at Celtic we all know why that is. And he's about to turn 31, which is when players in his position often begin their decline.

 

Guess with Celtic about to be dumped out of the CL this week they will cash in.

 

Aye, it's not a paper team though, it's being formed with a philosophy in mind. You'll see.

Aye, see you boxing day marra.

Na mate that's wrong, it's rising to 10m. either 6m or 8m is doing the rounds.

 

At £6-8m i can't help but feel we should have signed him rather than livermore. Although Rodwell does have question marks over his fitness.

 

And there's the risk init. Gerrard was dogged with hamstring problems, we had injury free seasons out of O'shea, Brown and Catts last season so I'm hoping we can keeo him fit and playing games.

 

That's easy for you to say.

 

Reported as £8m on SSN, a lot for an inexperienced player.

 

That's mental.

Two good season's in L1 and L2.

I get the feeling this is to appease the Forest fans.
