Transfer Window Thread

12 million is a reasonable price for the lad, but I don't have him in my recollection as a game changer really. He played well against the weaker sides, also in his penultimate season at Bayern he tore his hammy three times. An amazing free kick taker though and his corners have also been quality, it's Bayern's lack of good headers that hindered him from getting more assists.

I'm aware of his injury problems and it's against the weaker sides that we need someone like him.

Against the stronger sides we will probably set up to counter attack so a Pienaar/No10 player isn't really that important but we need something to break down the bus when playing the weaker teams especially at home. We have a few dead ball specialists. Deulofeu is also amazing at them.

The only good thing I can say about him is that he was pictured with John Snow at Wimbledon.

We could not afford his wages.

Was he actually?

Hope the tit stays dead.

I haven't really been paying attention this summer, in summary who do we think is leaving?

No one really. There's a bit of worry about McCarthy and Mirallas but both look far more likely to stay.

'Perfic' to throw off a bridge or something, surely not to play for us, another vastly over hyped and over valued English player.

Apart from when he played for Southampton ???!!!

Good players can still play for them, la.

Honestly think a backup CB would be heaps easier to get on loan than a creative playmaker.

I agree.

It's still the more important of the two targets, though. And ideally we would like to permanently sign both.

Lallana would be perfic.

Rubbish player and a gob*****. Can't believe that fool Rodgers put up 25 mill for him. Not even as good as Osman.

For gods sake spoiler alert

Neat and tidy but massively overrated

England's best player by far. He's annoying but would be great in our midfield. Always makes me laugh when Roy benches Carrick Wilshere and Barkley for Milner Henderson and Delph. England that.

Mates apparently

So are you still 100% confident?

That we'll get that type of player in? Yes. Martinez has stated we'll be in for one and the window has only just opened. He did say that we'd do some business early in the window and the deals that require a bit more waiting for will come in toward the end...presumably because we need players out first.

More chance of us signing Riquelme so even mentioning him, or any of their players for that matter in here is a bit pointless.

I wouldn't go north of 10m for him anyway, nevermind the obscene amount that shower paid for him.

 

[TheFinnFan]

Just that, I was worried about if Martinez transfer activity, since the defence was awful last year.

Youre not happy with our activity ?

 

[Moomin]

We all need to relax.

We will sign plenty of new players, we just have to wait for Chelsea to buy Stones first.

The Spanish equivalent wouldve cost half of what he did.

Overhyped because he was part of the southampton set up the media like to spunk over and he can do a cruff turn
