Anyone else today?.

I'd say Niang is a definite maybe for today.

I'm honestly at the point where i do not have a clue what to expect now mate, yesterday was 100% clear proof that something massive has now changed in regards to whose doing negotiations etc

I'm not even that arsed about Niang. Doubt anyone is, but I sort of want to splurge an insane amount on him to annoy fans of other clubs. and Davek.

Well if you look at the Gana thread a chap just made a fine point regarding game time for Gana, if Ross stays, we do not need him 100%, I think if Ross is to be moved on, well, im not convinced he fits into the system and style Ronny wishes to play, a fine player IMO, but possibly not what we need.

Gueye Snides
Barkley Klassen Siggurdson
?

​

All 3 of them roaming around switching positions behind the striker with two behind being deep, but also having one of the three, more likely to be klassen dropping back to help as a link between the two centre mids and the front three.

You see spurs with dier and wanyama fairly similar, dier being the deeper man, but not your nutorious anchor man in the makele mould, and it works for them.

Lookman, bolasie, niang?, mirallas, lennon and dela? to provide width from the bench or a change in system.

If Lukaku does go and it looks as if Conte is putting it up to the Chelsea board to stump up the cash , but if Lukaku does go do people think he'll go for a similar type of player ? I've seen Bony name mentioned , personally I'd love to see Benteke come in . What you reckon blues !!Loving GOT .

i would have said yes to benteke if palace hadn't have paid a stupid amount to the RS for him after his flop. If they bought him for around £20m, like they should have, i'd be saying we could go out and get him for the same as what the RS paid and he'd be well worth it now (they overpaid in the first place themselves, of course). Palace wouldn't even entertain any offer under £40m and he would be too much for that amount, for me.
But giroud and iheanacho as well as sandro would be my preferance, think that's a great blend of goals, types of striker and potential.

[Tony Hibbert's 3rd leg]

More evidence the out and out winger is dying. We haven't beend linked with any real wide players, just forwards who can play wide if need be. Fullbacks provide the width (Hence we should probably look for another LB).

As others have pointed out, I wonder if there won't be room for Schneiderlin AND Gana. Not many teams play with two natural defensive midfielders anymore. It really stifles creativity .

Now Klaassen is in, and we've been linked to more creative midfielders, maybe it will be a case of either 4-3-3 (Schneiderlin, Klaassan, Sigurdsson) or midfield diamond. Koeman and Walsh seem to be targeting the midfield as a key area thus far this window.

Sigurddson wouldn't be surprised if it's on the back burner till Sandro says yay or nay, a huge part of both players game is their set pieces, getting both would kind of reduce the effectiveness of the other in many ways

I don't even think we're interested Ste, to be honest

In Sigurdsson?

...I wonder if Kenwright is no longer involved in negotiating. I might be wrong but we have got a few over the line relatively quickly.

Moshiris men have Bill tied up in a box in his office in kensington. If he manages to escape then it's the end of our transfer spending spree

Seems £16m is the new £5m for a squad filler. Crazy really.

I think the 'interest' is similar to the Mata 'deal' from last summer. There was a report with no substance, people who want him have hyped it up to no end - I was guilty of this - and people have built up the interest themselves.

Add in other reports with no substance, Twitter and Facebook being full of jarg ITK's and then odds being offered on it and you have yourself a transfer rumour.

Now I could be wrong but this is what I believe.
