Transfer Window Thread

It does seem unlikely.

Austin will not sign for us unless it's a loan deal.

Won't be a loan. Why turn down a £13m bid only to loan him out for a fraction of that then lose him for nothing when his contract expires next summer?

We may or may not sign him but shortening odds mean absolutely nothing except that people are betting on it.

Is there any truth whatsoever in the Halilovic stuff? what ye reckon?

I've not seen any papers linking us to Austin.

As jarg as you'd like to believe they are, they generally do report substance, they just overdo it. An example is with McCarthy; Spurs did want him but he was never going.

I'd have expected at least one Pepe(and thus all of them) to have picked up on this eminent transfer.

i wish people would stop posting absolutes when they really dont know

This is just a Twitter rumour right?

I was sure he will end up at Newcastle, but since they signed that Mitrovic fella, I don't know what other options he has. What other team really need a striker? Possibly Man United, but I think they'll go for a bigger name than Austin. Spurs or Southampton perhaps?

Spurs are the favourites like. They seem the obvious choice.

That's corroboration to me.

Are we actually thinking we are going to sign Charlie Austin because someone put up a photo of Martinez supposedly in London?

Well if that's the case we will not be spending over £13m on a striker to play second fiddle to Lukaku.

I'd be made up with signing Austin, we'd have our best forward line since Yakubu and Johnson, which was great!

He will be the Kane replacement at Spurs when ManUtd get bored of being turned down by Real Madrid for Bale and make Spurs an offer they can't refuse.

all we'd need then is someone to play the ball in front of them
