Transfer Window Thread

[Connor]

Also, not going to fume about a player who's been bombed out by 2 top sides within 12 months.

I agree,current squad aint doing naff and maybe a few new faces might freshen things up abit.

But we shoudnt be in this position and again it stems back to the disgrace of a board and chairman and elstone

Looks like bobby splashed all of this summers budget on lukaku last summer.

This is surely playing right into the board of jokers hands with this train of thought? If there is no money, then they really need to tell people why!

Someone's got to pay for the lawnmowers.

We'll go with what we've got...

think he,s a bit of a ego maniac and can cause problems in house! hence why he,s on the move! so much! (only what i read mind) so bearing that in mind i would prefer the loan option!

Bingo.

What a shambles man I blame the fans we have sat around and let the board get away with everything for too long.

Looks like Stones is off to London, that means we need four players. Given that we owe Chelsea most of his transfer fee it is difficult to see where we go from here.

Well that's Shaqiri gone. Austin odds on to join Spurs. What are we left with? Oh yes Januzaj and a near 29 year old Nolito. Maybe.

Anyone citing Lukaku deal you have to remember that was a last minute deal - we had nothing up our sleeves that transfer window - and we sure as hell don't have a plan now either.

If we've missed out on Shaqiri it isn't the end of the world, certainly... but it does feel like the end of an era where Everton were a more attractive prospect than Stoke.

We may well bring in some other targets (that Boberto wants more than Shaqiri, even?) and spend some TV dolla'... but can anyone more informed than me explain why we can't afford to buy him outright? I have ideas, none more palatable or concrete than the others.

The obvious one being that we were unwilling to not try him on loan first - an element of not wanting to 'waste' money, maybe, but all the evidence so far points to it being purely financial constraints.

We don't owe Chelsea most of the transfer fee, stop peddling nonsense.

To be honest I wouldn't mind Januzaj.. He always talks about being a preferred number 10 and has undoubted talent

This is a wind up, right?

It would be a disaster to lose Shaqiri.

The deal was done.
Martinez will be fuming if hes been allowed to go.

What an utter joke.
