Transfer Window Thread

To be fair Dutch you've probably seen him more than me. Seen him a fair bit for Swansea and a couple times for Napoliwhere he was always a CM.

Neat and tidy player though with and eye for goal.

He did play a few games off Bony for Swansea when Michu wasn't fit/was struggling with other non-footballing matters.
Still more of a centre mid though

Lennon will only come in McGeady is sold IMO. Not sure we need him as a priority. We need a creative player comfortable at No.10 or on one of the flanks, and probably a back up ST - taken Mori as done.

Think there will be lots of games that will suit Lennons play rather than Del's.For a small fee he will be a good buy.

Nice that we're getting two utterly obscure south american randoms like everyone was complaining about wanting. Maybe they can pipe down about 'predictable' signings until next summer.

No, unfortunately not, the complaint now is that we are signing two utterly obscure South American randoms.

That was basically this mornings press conference

Nor mine ffs! Trying to translate Russian "English" into English did my nut!

It was hard work trying to figure out what was actually being said, so could well imagine your head being cabbaged, you did a good job though Roydo.

Would take him as replacement for Barry (McCarthy to take over Barry's role) or Gibson (like for like), but otherwise not fussed.

I've a good feeling about him if we do sign him.Might end up like Cleveley,one we aren't fussed about getting but ends up a pleasant surprise.

Guys I know this has probably been covered already, but when he says two players in the forward positions, does he mean two players in addition to Leandro Rodriguez?

Yes mate.

Yes. Rodriguez was explained as being a Henen type signing.

Yup, guessing it's a playmaker and lennon

So are we leaving Lennon till last minute to save money?

 

[davids]

ITK enough to not know that Kievs owner DGAF about money?

Wealth people normally DGAF,that's how they become wealthy.Now if your talking about his ego......

I just don't get that mentality at all.

Cleverley, Deulofeu, Holgate have all ready been tied down and the Argentinian & Uruguayan look nailed on, Lennon is highly likely and it looks like Stones stays (75% of our fan base in all honesty thought he'd depart).

Personally I think it's been an incredible window. If Martinez adds a player of real high quality out of the Blue then we should be all rejoicing from the rooftops ...

We could sign Neymar, Suarez and Messi and this place would still be in full on fume mode. Incredible.

No it wouldn't, you absolute bumbotherer

Maybe there is still a small chance...

Kiev's CL group games against Porto and Chelsea will have a huge bearing on Yarmolenko's possible transfer.

If Kiev come first or second in that group (which is quite possible) then he may stay with them and see out his contract, just for the chance to win the CL. If he plays well against Porto and Chelsea but Kiev don't finish in the top 2, he will have a queue of teams after him in January. If he plays badly and they go out then there will STILL be some teams after him - us included.

I still harbour hope that we're gonna snap him up in the next couple days for £14m to £16m, but it's not looking very likely at all.
