Summer transfer speculative hopes and dreams

you think he's not trying? who'd take them, and why would the move to a pay per play contract somewhere else?
If they are told they aren't wanted, players will normally go.
Time to start the rebuild.
Gibson, Barry, Pienaar to begin with. Then Kone, McGeady and Howard next Summer as a minimum for me.
Barry won't go this Summer. Put him in the next Summer bunch.
 
Agreed...at this moment...

However if we have £15mil+ now.

Up to £10mil on a centre back. Then Mirallas goes we will have £20mil+

Thats a game changer i think on the one big signing.

Can't see us spending £20-25m on one player mate, Martinez has said we can't afford to blow that amount on one player again the way we did with Lukaku. Max we'll spend on one player in this window is £15m imo.

So if you were Gibson, Pienaar you'd walk away from the final year of your big contract, to sign for someone who would pay you a fraction of that unless you played every week? With their injury records? madness.

We either have to pay them off or find someone to take them off our hands on a similar contract.

this ignores the fact that they'd both have to pass a medical to sign for another club.
 

Usually id agree and its logical...

BUT im sure Gibson would want to start afresh...Pienaar in last year before retirement would want game time....barry will be phased out for besic and want games...howard is so arrogant he wouldnt want to be sub...etc

How can either of them pass a Physical?
they can't even pass the Dressing Room without being pushed in a wheelchair.
 
Still need a CB, AM and striker. Let him ship out two or three more from the midfield like Gibson and Pienaar.

Shipping out deadwood...Hibbert (why gave him a new contract?), Gibson, Kone, Osman, Pienaar. I expect all five bar Osman are gone next summer as their contracts are up. Martinez will probably give Oviedo a new contract now as his contract is running down to a year. Please Kev stays with us by signing a new contract. I bet Howard and Barry will stay till the end of the current contract.

Someone in some league in some division will give them a two or three year contract. They won't stay to play reserves football at their age
 
You're not wrong.

How did Gibson or Saha pass theirs with us...who knows.

There will be sales this summer though i think...

Gibson
Pienaar
Mirallas
Howard
Naismith
McGeady
Kone

The likely outs for me for different reasons.

Conservatively:

Osman, Pienaar,Hibbert seen as blues will leave next summer.

Barry will go in Jan once Besic cements his role

Gibson if any offer to take on his contract

McGeady / Mirallas both sold this window i think..

Naismith gone this or next window

Howard once Martinez identifies a replacement and has money to spend.

This. It won't happen. Where is Kone btw?
 
Barrys going nowhere for at least another season, aslong as hes used right he still has plenty to offer,
Be mad to get rid of pienaar, hes still one of our best players and should be going into the season fully fit for the first time in ages,


TBH cant really see many leaving maybe a big one like Kev or McCarthy but thats about it other than maybe a few loans out like Ty, Garbutt, Galloway

Hibbert is here until he dies, One year extension and Coaching role next summer, mark my words.

Barry is going nowhere until at least next Summer, even then, it would have to be a good offer to make him move as he's not particularly box office for anyone.

Kev will be sold, he wants to go, his agent will drive it.

McGeady will be given until Christmas at least, good pre-season and all that.

Naismith will stay. He's so not a footballer that he changes the way we play completely which is sometimes needed. He gives us a random option when Bobby Ball is getting bogged down in high pressing.

Howard will go next Summer off to the States for one last payday before they forget who he is.

Osman, Pienaar, Gibson will see out their contracts because they aren't idiots and nobody will pay to take them off our hands.
