Not heard anything about Hargreaves. Yossi is still at Chelsea but not getting a look in - reckon he's regretting his move from Liverpool now. From first team regular to reserve player in a year.
Yossi would have left with Maxi and Kuyt if he had stayed with us longer. Spurs have apparently big for Yan M'Vila and are looking Mountinho to replace Modric.
So the talk is Dempsey and Sturridge but why do I feel like there is another ace up the sleeve somehow? Meireles springs to mind, Assaidi as well. No one knew we were after these players.
My first choice position to fill would be a pacy LB that can put pressure on E for position and can also play equally well at CB.
Yep, there was no links to Assaidi at all before he signed. What out of the blue signing would you like or think is realistic? I still think someone like Soldado would be good. Wouldn't be surprised if we got Butland from Birmingham too.
Depends on who we sell I think. Negrado has a 20 mil euro price tag on him. We can def meet that if we sell Adam and someone else ( Carroll??). Not sure what leagues BR is looking at, especially with how Random that Assaidi signing was. Could also see a Lucas Barrios or Van Wolfswinkel as well. In terms of LB I always thought we should have gone for Aly Cissokho but he is at Valencia now. :/
I would think Butland and Dempsey most likely... But Asiddidi transfer proves that nobody knows what will happen
Jack Robinson is a class act, just give him and Johnson games there if Enrique is struggling instead of wasting money there when we have positions that are much more of a priority than left back.
I agree robinson has a shot at making it but i feel he needs a loan to both toughen him up but also get him to the speed of thought and sharpness of the level he's got to get to. A nice championship club loan would really be ideal but its hard to find a club looking for a full back! I think centre half on the other hand as two 28 year olds, who should be first pick, the coates and kelly are both good options and carreghr is there if required. Should we buy here or no? I think if i wanted two players no 1 is a striker and no 2 is a left full.
Could be worth a punt.... Lyon could also sell Bafetimbi Gomis before the transfer window closes after Jean-Michel Aulas confirmed there have been offers from the Premier League for the striker. Fulham have been strongly linked with a move for the France international.
Just watched 1st half of Atletico Madrid - Bilbao. Atletico 2-0 up thanks to 2 goals from Falcao. That guy is an immense no.9, I wish we had someone of his quality upfront, and I really hope Chelsea don't get him as the rumours suggest might happen.
No, he's as bad as Downing ffs, why can no one see that? He has pace (as does Downing) but no end product whatsoever
If Adam goes, we get Dempsey If Carroll goes we spend on a quality £15m-20m coming in If we sell Carroll and only buy Dempsey , i will be f**kin annoyed after we sold Raul M,and didnt replace him last season
If Carrolls sold, I would love Damiao, but Sturridge,Walcott,Negredo,Soldado,Dembele,Doumbia would ALL be acceptable
Yeah Ive wrote it twice, that shows me how f**kin annoyed Id be if we brought in say £18m in transfers and only spent £6m of it
I think he'd cost upward of £40m mate, but would be worth every penny. Would he want to come here? Probably not but nothing wrong with being optimistic or aiming high
