General Transfer Discussion Thread

Re: Transfer Rumours

He wasn't gracious to us in his post move interviews, then he would "conveniently" have interviews just before games against us and would talk smack about us, how we have a loser mentality at the club, etc. etc.

Just unnecessary and classless ****, to me I have an issue with the guy because Keane/Berbs/Modric would have all made their careers with/without Spurs. Carrick required Spurs to take a chance on him (he could have faded in the championship), build a team around him, give him a run over a player with CL experience.

If he had an ounce of ****ing class, he could have just said "thanks to Spurs for giving me the chance, it's given me the opportunity to prove myself at the highest level" nothing else, don't need undying love, don't need to be his boyhood club, just don't **** on the side that took you out of the ****ing championship and made you attractive enough for United to buy you.

Can't say he was wrong.

I wish someone at the club had listened to him.

If he knows a better mentality and could bring it back with him we shouldn't just try to sign him we should consider making him captain.
 
Re: Transfer Rumours

Once he left Carrick said that the attitude at Spurs was that it was ok to lose to certain teams (like United). He implied that he was leaving to join a bigger better club with a winning mentality!

He's right though, isn't he? We need players who think that it is not acceptable to move us on.
 
Re: Transfer Rumours

Not a transfer rumour but as there is not a thread for this kind of thing i will stick it here.

If we get rid of one of our strikers this season we should give Alfred Finnbogason a crack. He is only 25 and is about 6ft tall but has got good feet on him and knows where the back of the net is. He currently has 27 in 29 for Heerenveen this season and 51 in 62 overall.

Its about time we gave a nobody a crack and he will not cost alot.

I will take full credit if this becomes an official rumour. (Watch this space)
 
Re: Transfer Rumours

Roma will have Champions league football next year so can attract the best players from clubs such as ourselves. Much like we should've done when we got into the competition many moons ago.

I do however think that this news will bring in the sharks and he'll end up somewhere else earning us a little bit more.

I would consider Andreas Cornelius... as a no-body and he cost Cardiff nearly 10m lol

Prefer Lambert
 
Re: Transfer Rumours

If they give us something close to what we bought him for I would probably do it. Then buy Lukaku.

I'd keep him. Despite Ade's form, simple business sense (he's 30, on massive wages and on a high that will guarantee a decent price) dictates he be sold. I'd rather sell him than Soldado, who I feel will start next season with a point to prove and nothing to lose.

We won't get Lukaku, imo, so Bony/Benteke (injury notwithstanding)/A.N.Other + Soldado + Kane would be a good strike-force to start the season with. Unless of course Someone offers 30 million or something for Soldado, but come on, no one would do that now. no one.

this.

I know the player well and he certainly has a unique eye for the goal. Nevertheless, he is a luxury player that I think is often totally ineffective on the pitch, untill he pops out of nowhere and scores a goal. He could work though if he came on the cheap and expectations were not that high. A really good option on the bench. His native, Sigthorsson at Ajax is a better option imho.

Sounds like Jordan Rhodes

The link only says target ..... not signing.

Please avoid stirring things a la Gutter Press
 
Re: Transfer Rumours

Not with Toure, but we do need a whole new defence in the summer. Just looking at the table, we've scored 51 goals, which considering AVB's team's aversion to scoring for half the season is pretty impressive and amongst the best in the division, but we have a GD of only 2 and have conceded getting towards 50 goals which is catastrophic.

None of our defenders other than Walker would get near the starting XI of a top side. They literally need putting down at the knackers yard.
