Silly Season January 2014

[Aidey9]

With West Ham interested in Jelavic.

I would take James Tompkins from them.

Good footballer, playing ion completely the wrong system for him.

Winston Reid is there best defender, out injured at the moment though

 

[Aidey9]

Mohamed Salah looks pretty good, seen him ripping a good few defences apart.

He does look a player but how much would he cost?. Saw stories not long back when he played well against Chelsea in CL that they'd want £20m or more.

A new eidur gudjohnsen

Good shout, never thought of him, and he wasn't bad was he!

What they want and what they will accept is 2 different things. Would probable take £10m

Found this..

Some of his movement in that clip reminds me of Suarez!. He doesn't look super quick but he gets into good positions and I like that when he does drop in deep to get on the ball, when he makes a pass he doesn't stop and admire it, he gets in the box to get on the end of the move, very Suarez esq IMO.

Get what your saying but if a bidding war breaks out for him, they'll get closer to 20!. Soon after that Chelsea game, Chelsea themselves and Spurs got linked to him, and we all know how daft Spurs are with cash when they want to get there man!

Does he bite his way around?

A good point mister.

Kenwyne Jones will not be making his debut against his old club, game comes to soon on New Years Day. Plus, we want to make sure Jelavic is sold before making the signing.

I've been told this as well, me may have the same source.

IF and a big IF the Kenwe Jones story has any truth i would be very dissapointed.

It strikes me as 'what do we do if Lukaku is injured?' 'sign another tall strong african origin player who may do the same job.

Yeah, thats racist

 

[Zatara]

Jelavic is done.....and we have no-one else....

May as well actually play a lamppost up front instead of him.

Now if Jones comes in for pocket money (only until summer!) then we can offload jelavic for 5mil it gives Martinez some time to see where we finish and go in for better and cheaper options in summer than January.

Besides, Martinez could work his magic on jones....you never know.

 

[RFUS]

Sell/quietly put down Heitinga and Jelavic.

Buy a quality striker who can have his bedding in period now whilst he doesn't need to be first choice.

Get another CM in, and hopefully another flair player.

And er... buy Bobby some more brown shoes.

 

[Abraders]

A little off topic but...

On the blue moon forum they are speaking as though they are simply 'waiting' until they sign Barkley from us. Rofl, do one city!

 

[Ashtonian]

Yeah, thats racist

How is that racist? I have been as politically correct as i possibly could be?!

But they look similar (taking everything into account), similar hair cuts, play similar roles on the pitch, similar height and weight. So yeah, a carbon copy player
