Ambitious that
If he gets a centreback, midfielder and winger, it's more like £120m.
Doucoure and Zaha would be £100m+

Ambitious that
Can’t see the midfield shouts personally. Gomes Gbamin Delph Siggurdson all expecting first team football. Schneiderlin and Davies still trusted by the manager. Bernard potentially dropping into number 10. Besic and McCarthy still not moved on yet. I can’t see why we’d want to add another first team player to that. I’m all for squad strength but there’s going to be 20 million pound midfielders sat on the bench if we’re not careful.
I was about to argue the toss there, but now that I think about it, you're probably not going to change your mind about a player who you've just called an 'overrated utter donkey.'Lets do a quick straw poll.
If given the choice, which would everybody pick :
1. The overrated utter donkey at Watford
2. Or the Bolaise mk2 with better digits at Palace
Its 2 for me, all day.
Tell you what this window has shown, that you dont need European football to get players in, no one cares about the Europa league. I hope we can win a cup and if so we will get in it that way, but if not i hope we avoid 6 or 7th again next season. If we have a go at 4th and miss out and come 5th fair enough
If we finish lower than 8th this season then it will have been a very poor season. If we spend the rumoured £100m+ over the next 48 hours and still finish lower than 8th then it will have been an unmitigated disaster and many, many, heads will roll.I dont agree mate, next season might be harder to just stay 8th, Wolves, Leicester and West Ham for example, let's say they step up, just to stay 8th would take more quality then we had last season.
This is a very good point. I'm a Silva fan but if we get Zaha and Zouma in, for instance, and he's having that spell like he did in the middle third of last season then he's gone.If we finish lower than 8th this season then it will have been a very poor season. If we spend the rumoured £100m+ over the next 48 hours and still finish lower than 8th then it will have been an unmitigated disaster and many, many, heads will roll.
I hope we can get rid of the big 6 deadwood ASAP.
What's he said about McCarthy eggs
I was thinking the same with Zouma, hope I’m wrong but maybe that’s why we have gone in big for Doucoure & Zaha. As we will be loaning the RB & CB. Just hope it’s not one of Utd’sI'd say there's some opportunism with Doucoure. It's why I don't think we will "move on". I'm not sure the manager wants another midfield player, I think at this stage he wants Doucoure and believes he is attainable. Given his age and profile, he will come straight in and be a first team choice. He will be a big improvement on what we have. I can see why Silva is keen. I suspect some encouragement has been given by the player hence why we are considering it.
You can only imagine they are confident of having a buyer for McCarthy (lots of firm interest reported) and Besic. Maybe Schneiderlin too. Seems an awful lot of movement but it's not inconceivable.
It suggests to me Zouma is off the cards too, so we are probably better getting to grips with that reality.
...he said he didn’t select him for the last pre-season game because of his training performance. Quite a criticism to make in public.
Starting with the manager’s.If we finish lower than 8th this season then it will have been a very poor season. If we spend the rumoured £100m+ over the next 48 hours and still finish lower than 8th then it will have been an unmitigated disaster and many, many, heads will roll.
