Looks like we are moving as many out as we can to raise funds before we make our move to sign a striker. Good business being done getting fees for Cairney Stewart and Hobbs. (and maybe Fryatt)
 
Truth in the Nick Powell one though, it's a strange on for me as it's only a loan. He's not really good enough yet so not a short improvement, just adds depth but once Aluko's back he'll have Aluko, Koren and Boyd to contend with in his position, all of whom are better than him.
 
If we can ship out Cairney (I know we already have), Stewart, Maclean, Prozzy and Hobbs that would be fantastic. I know Maclean and Prozzy scored today but let's face it they aren't PL material. I would keep Fryatt for now though.

Good luck to them all.
 
surely it is good business to get rid of all players who can no longer perform at this level given the fact we are likely to stay in the PL for the next few seasons (as long as each player as a relegation clause in their contract eh Mr Duffen)

How is this anywhere near fact? We may not stay up this year!

Like Lewis said, how the **** is that fact? We could still go down this year...
 
atm lewis there are 5 worse clubs in this league, next season given our manager and the deals he has been able to pull out of the hat in the past due to his contacts which at least four clubs next season will not have means we are safe for the next season - and due to that stability over newly promoted teams means we can attract better players than they can - as alexander the meerkat would say, simples

You are thinking waaaaaaaaaay too far ahead.

Given how easy it is, it's a wonder anyone ever gets relegated.
 
Prozzy could be on his way back to Germany, apparently Eintracht Braunschweig are interested in him
 
I know that highly positive postings are not that common on this board, hence the MDMA comment (don't even know what that is or does Erik). And I know we have history of starting off well in the PL and then bombing in the first season and then having an awful second season BUT things can, will and do change. And it is easy to stay up if you have the right manager (check), better players than at least three clubs (check), vocal home support meaning the stadium is like a fortress (check) and avoid employing an idiot director of football (check).

I don't think you can 'have a history' if you've only done it once! ;)
 
Update on current outgoing rumours...

Cairney to Blackburn now done.

Stewart to Leeds to happen this week.

Hobbs to Wigan(as a swap for Jean Beausejour), or to Forest(for a rumoured £700k).

Proschwitz to Eintracht Braunschweig.

Mclean to anyone who'll have him.

I read somewhere Brum are interested, but I didnt think he got too much match time whilst he was there?
