Summer Transfer Thread: Speculation, Lies, Absolute Cr*p and Bosman Rumours

Any helicopters in the vicinity of Bodymoor Heath? and who has been assigned to this "look out" task from this team?

[AvFc4eVeR]

He's maybe got two seasons maximum at this level? And he'd be on big wages, £3m a year maybe. So we'd essentially be paying £13m for two good seasons. Maybe. Is that worth it? Are there really not better deals outside of the Engflation Premier League?

I'd say he is worth that if he helps keep us in premier league, then next season we will have extra TV revenue, push on in the Lambert style, and acquire better signings next summer.

Clint is not what we want/need now. too old too expensive no future value. avoid.

You are the weakest link. Goodbye!

[JJ-AV]

I'd take Jenas if we can't get anyone else.

I know, I know. But I really do not rate our centre midfield options that almost anyone would be an upgrade.

Pete Colley on SSN now....

Do you think there is any chance that we will make this thread to 1000 pages by midnight?

Dempsey is exactly what we need and have done for a long time. 29 in this day and age is not old, he's not reliant on pace he could easily play quality football up to 34-35.

Saying Lambert was coy on Dempsey because he wants to go Liverpool, so Villa have ended interest.

Oh for goodness' sake. We're not getting relegated, it's just everyone panicking and screaming like an old lady who's seen a mouse. What an overreaction.

Besides, there HAS to be a better deal than Dempsey out there. I'm not saying sign another 'one for the future', but a player WITH a future would make sense.

How many places up the league is that? Six a year maybe?

ah bugger

Only if Spurs pay for an ambulance as part of the deal!

[AvFc4eVeR]

Benayoun and Benteke it is then

[saunders_heroes]

According to Colley we've ended our interest in Dempsey because he wants Liverpool. Ahh well, let's go and sign some more cheap kids and foreigners we've never heard of.

Look, I've always been a fan of Dempsey, but he on his own is certainly not worth six Premier League places. That's nonsense.
