Summer Transfer Window Thread 15/16

by **Crimey** Tue 26 May 2015, 4:57 pm

First topic message reminder :

Now the season is over, the rumours begin!

Milner/Ings to Liverpool seems likely.
Benitez to Real Madrid, Bale staying.
Falcao is desperate to move to Chelsea.
Otamendi and Dani Alves to Manchester United.
Raheem Sterling to Arsenal

What else?

by GSC Tue 02 Jun 2015, 7:35 am

That's insane for a man who shouldn't be more than a squad player

by **Crimey** Tue 02 Jun 2015, 9:12 am

By most accounts Manchester City actually offered him £165k as well!

by Guest Tue 02 Jun 2015, 10:14 pm

I believe its going to come down to who can offer him the most football from a central role and Liverpool seem to be able to do that whereas City play him in a less favourable wide role, yeah its too much in wages, but money in football is beyond stupid now

by Guest Tue 02 Jun 2015, 10:24 pm

Former Chelsea midfielder Michael Essien has joined Panathinaikos on a two-year deal. They must be desperate, thought his knees went five years ago.

by Nakatomi Plaza Wed 03 Jun 2015, 5:41 pm

The aptly named Christian Fuchs has signed a three-year deal with Leicester.

Was there a post with lolz about Palace signing Cabaye? Cos its looking stronger and stronger

by GSC Thu 04 Jun 2015, 2:42 pm

Yes

Hopefully it was John

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Thu 04 Jun 2015, 2:42 pm

On that, apparently Jedinak will leave and Bolasie is likely to be bid on by Spurs for big $$$

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Thu 04 Jun 2015, 3:03 pm

I thought it was Johnny boy, but wanted to hedge my bets a tad

Real Madrid have started to groom Pogba.

Id heard they were after Verratti.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Fri 05 Jun 2015, 3:25 am

Manchester United are interested in Sterling...and reports suggest he would be interested, nay, eager to join up with United and LVG.

Skrtel is very unhappy with Liverpool's contract offer to him.

When asked if the problem was the contract being appearance-linked, Skrtel said: “Sure. I think a contract like this is offered to players who are much older than me or to players who have had some health complications. But I feel good and not so old to sign this contract. Also I think my health is OK. The contract offered is unacceptable for me; this is the reason why I didn’t sign it.

But, in good news, Ings is looking more likely.

QPR want £15m for Austin, but suitors seem more likely to go to £10m. Southampton lead the group of themselves, WBA and Newcastle.

And United reach agreement with Gaitan

Excellent, now just sneijder and garay to wait on.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Fri 05 Jun 2015, 2:08 pm

Well, you can add Benzema to that list as Woodward is said to have been seen with his agent.

by Guest Fri 05 Jun 2015, 2:24 pm

That may just have been a date

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri 05 Jun 2015, 3:37 pm

Nodge, Watford and Everton are all interested in out of contract striker John Guidetti

by Nakatomi Plaza Fri 05 Jun 2015, 4:01 pm

Word's going around that Stoke are interested in Dinpro's Ukrainian international Yevhan Konoplyanka on a Bosman.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Fri 05 Jun 2015, 5:42 pm

I really want us to go after Konoplyanka

by **Hero** Fri 05 Jun 2015, 5:49 pm

Great player, was heavily linked with Liverpool last summer as well as West Ham.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Fri 05 Jun 2015, 5:55 pm

I do know that we are interested in Obiang and Eder of Sampdoria.

by Nakatomi Plaza Fri 05 Jun 2015, 6:03 pm

Cleverley's passed a medical at Everton.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri 05 Jun 2015, 6:09 pm

Think villa will be quietly gutted they lost him, thought he did well for them

by GSC Fri 05 Jun 2015, 6:53 pm

Hes Poopie

by NickisBHAFC Fri 05 Jun 2015, 10:32 pm

Plays in the Premiership, puts in solid performances, recognised for his country. Hardly poopie.

by GSC Fri 05 Jun 2015, 11:10 pm

I mean he plays in the Premier League so you're 1/3 I guess

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Fri 05 Jun 2015, 11:26 pm

He vital in Villa's wins that kept them up.

by westisbest Sat 06 Jun 2015, 8:50 am

He was good for us when Sherwood came in.
Thought we would have signed him.
Think he did say before he wanted to go tho Everton.

Fair play to him and well done to him for helping us beat the drop.

by Guest Sat 06 Jun 2015, 10:32 am

Reports in Italy saying that Lazio have agreed a fee with United for Robin Van Persie for €15m (£10.9m)

by GSC Sat 06 Jun 2015, 11:25 am

He was so useless for most of the season they decided not to bother trying to sign him

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Sat 06 Jun 2015, 10:05 pm

Luis Suarez to Danny ings in 13 months

Oof

by Wellington Sun 07 Jun 2015, 6:01 pm

After watching Raheem Sterling's performance in the England vs Ireland game I'd be amazed if anyone would pay over £10m for him.
World class?............
Raheem Sterling = Shaun Wright Phillips.

by GSC Sun 07 Jun 2015, 6:18 pm

After watching Wayne Rooney I'm surprised he's a professional footballer.

Captain didn't look interested summed it up.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Sun 07 Jun 2015, 9:56 pm

Obiang looks nailed on for West Ham, and the Mail and Telegraph are reporting Andre Ayew to West Ham is very close too.

Enner Valencia may end up at Sampdoria in this process.

What really is the point of Barcelona's transfer ban?

ings deal to liverpool confirmed

better than balotelli, but him and milner hardly putting fear into the teams chasing champions league places. average squad players. watch milner without silva and yaya taking the ball off him and doing the real hard work (not running!)

by GSC Mon 08 Jun 2015, 9:38 am

Signing Danny Ings sums it all up. Decent player but nowhere near the standard they would want to be aiming at

by Soldier_Of_Fortune Mon 08 Jun 2015, 9:58 am

He's only 22. Am quite happy with the two we have brought in so far. We lacked tenacity last season and we have brought in two players to combat that issue. Both Milner and Ings will give 100% to the cause.

Be careful SoF...he returns this summer #RVWcomeback2015

by Fernando Mon 08 Jun 2015, 10:17 am

It would be amazing banter if RVW outscored him Laugh

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon 08 Jun 2015, 10:36 am

I hope Neil gives him a chance personally. He has very little value at the moment anyways, so there's nothing to lose in giving him the first half of the season to see if he can regain old form, if not sell in January or next summer.

He should fair better under Neil than hughton anyways

by GSC Mon 08 Jun 2015, 10:39 am

Alex Neil, he of the 6 months with a stacked squad fame.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon 08 Jun 2015, 10:46 am

Just an observation in the difference in playing styles...
