Haha. So earlier in the month journalists were saying Ged had 2 players lined up for the Summer. Who do we reckon they are? Keeper and left back?

Larssen on a Free is one I think.

If Andy Carroll is worth £35 million I would rate Isaiah Osbourne at, oh, at least ten quid. Cash in before the Transfer Madness! (TM) ends.

We need a new left back and goalkeeper, and real ale on sale in the Lower Holte for the Bartons Mafia. If not Villadawg will produce one of his bloody charts.

Charlie Adam for £4million from Championship side Blackpool. Just to really fuck Holloway off.

Well the signings from the January transfer window were crap, we should go out and get a creative midfielder... that Ireland at newcastle looks good!

If we don't buy a decent reserve reserve keeper I'm not renewing my season ticket.

French based. I'm not sure we've heard the last of that Fofana fella. We don't know exactly what his medical issue was could be minor.

Guzan
Beye
Heskey
Reo-Coker

Plus 2/3 youngsters signed for the future.

Not so much now as could become major in the future, was the word.

He'd be ace up front with Benni McCarthy.

Taiwo is on a free in the Summer isn't he? Could be him.

Anyone have a link to any expiring contracts in Ligue 1?

The week before my oldest was born in July 1999 JG watched him have a shocker for Wolves in some meaningless freindly against either Leiga Warsaw or Weder Bremen.  JG left at HT.

We're 12 years too late.

Transfer markt (http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/spieler/vertragsende/basics.html)

Look through the drop down menu, you can look at every league going.

Heard someone say that Mat Kendrick said GH is looking at Moussa Sissoko as a summer target. He and Taiwo would be a great start.

Sylvain Marveaux from Rennes is another decent option, who will be free this summer. Very tricky LW/AM. Was on Liverpools radar, although maybe now they will step up bid for AY in the summer.

Some decent players in that list (I also didn't realise that Luke Young's contract was up in the summer too).

Bosingwa
Kightly (Has he got over his injury problems?)
Klose
Trochowski
Taiwo
Delgado
Pirlo
Mexes

I very much doubt Walker will be made permanent. If he's a success then Spurs will want him back. If he fails we won't want to sign him. There was no first option for us, was there?

Pretty much what I reckon but with Ash in the sold column as well as a replacement coming in.  Can't for the life of me see him signing a new contract, can see him heading to Liverpool if they qualify for Europe or Spurs otherwise.

I've a sneaky feeling that Ashley will sign a new contract.

Post by: JJ-AV on February 01, 2011, 02:00:29 AM
I hope so, but I suspect our number 7 will be joining squad numbers 1, 3, 4, 8, 9 and 11 in needing to be filled in the Summer.

11? Not sure Gabby's leaving, JJ.

Think Ash will stay. But has got to sign up in the summer or before ...........
