.....Ospina is an interesting one. Howard clearly has some personal problems and we don't know what is happening in that space. If the Ospina link is true I wonder if he's seen as an immediate or longer term replacement.
 
So from 50 pages I've gathered the only news is that we're skint. Cheers.

Pretty certain when interviewed Martinez said we can't afford this window to spend 28million on one player as we did last year with Rom.
Doesn't mean there isn't funds available, just perhaps not to the same extent where we spent about 35-40 last season.
 
Players we have been linked with means nothing.
We must have been linked with about 60 players already and bought 2.
Look back to his interview when he said we will spend nowhere near what we spent last summer.
Its easy to get carried away with all the rumours but in reality you are saying we have 30 million to spend with Gerry already in and I don't see why you think we will have that to spend
Or you could also read it as he's actually saying that spending nearly £30M on one player won't happen this window....

mainly because there's a number of positions that need filling.
 
If we got Ospina my faith in Martinez would be restored. In him and Cleverley there would be replacements for two of the worst performers last season, Barry and Howard.

I've noticed Palace have had a bid accepted for Cabaye. We're massively missing out there.

Martinez did say we were not looking at keepers so if howard has got personal problems he could be off
 
Ospina is not very tall for a goalkeeper at just six foot. Howard is three inches taller than him and Joel at least four.
Most of the better keepers now are very tall which helps them dominate the area.
He may be a good keeper, but I think he is too small.

Only time will tell I guess but I just don't see us having anywhere near that amount to spend
