Transfer Window Thread

[ijjysmith]

The agent is just stumping up the interest and valuation of the player in question.

Everton are in for Dann really lads.

Not sure we are anymore mate.

We are much skinter than we would imagine even with that new TV money.

A mid-lower size club like West Ham spend a lot more.

If West Ham go down this season they move into the new stadium with Championship football to look forward to. They are under pressure to spend big this summer. Anyway it's always best to compare spending at the end of the window rather than the start of July!

West Ham will have spent £25m after Ogbonna and that's with no exits.

I somehow doubt we haven't got £8m to spend on a defender his summer. He's either said no to us, or we were never in for him at all.

AAAARGHHH can all you negative t1ts stop guessing how much we have to spend and deciding it is about 50p.

WE HAVE JUST SIGNED THE BIGGEST TV DEAL IN HISTORY - WE WILL SPEND BIG MONEY.

Relax ffs, it is the first week of the transfer window not september the 5th....

I think we will sign someone cheap as some soft of 3rd CB. Vlaar or Evans for £5M (something similar; not that I want them).

I think the manager saying we only had about 1/2 the Rom fee is making people think that way, I mean Roberto would normally add inches to your flute so coming from him...

Saying that, RM wouldn't lie straight in his coffin and he could be just keeping his powder dry.

We are. Need him to force stuff too though.

 

[Blue Parkender]

Anything on the number 10 jinkyali? Praet or anyone.

Came back 2nd season with an awful attitude and had a row with one of the coaches i think...laudrup left and he totally changed from the friendly sociable person in year one to having a chip on his shoulder year 2.

Was an article on it a few weeks ago.

Billy Bigballs syndrome.

So, Ogbonna off to West Ham and according to SSN we won't be buying players that slots right into our starting XI(if I got it right).

I'm sure that means we won't buy players like Scott Dann or Jonny Evans, they would simply cost too much for that reason. That Estonian lad feels like a more realistic target if that's the case.

Has somebody actually said this?

I guess you can understand the reasoning, I mean, we finished 11th so why would we need to improve the first team? And as for all these other players being mentioned, well, where would they fit in?

 

[marty mcfly]

Three different free transfer shouts.

Ibrahim Afellay (good squad winger) - http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ibrahim-afellay/profil/spieler/15760
Ezequiel Munoz (23 years old, good backup CB potential starter eventually) - http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ezequiel-munoz/profil/spieler/75127
Yoannn Gourcuff (#10 with unfulfilled potential) - http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/yoann-gourcuff/profil/spieler/18912

Ibrahim Afellay is really injury prone but was a cracking player. Seemed to do OK at Olympiacos

 

[marty mcfly]

No we won't. Crystal Palace want unreal money for him.

I rather get Vlaar on a free rather than blowing a huge sum on Dann. Not worth it at all.

It might be worth it to get Dann at this stage. Spending a couple of million extra to get someone we want is better than going into the season with 2 CBs and 2 kids and a panic buy. Look at how Alcaraz cost us last season and we all thought he was 4th choice so not really an issue.

We should have a poll to see what people think.

I won't spend anything more than £5M on him. The problem is CP want £8M or above which is unreal (personally speaking). Spending a couple of millions might be the right way but I won't spend it on Dann. If we are as skint as we imagine, we just won't blow our major sum on someone who replace Distin/Alcaraz (who is supposed to start behind Jags/Stones).

 

[SpurtingLesbian]

surely all the Greek and Ukrainian team are looking to offload at the moment (or the players desperately wanting out)
