Austin is absolutely not the answer.

He's on some sort of charge too isn't he? Can't remember what. May have been assault.

Didn't he get done for assaulting some bloke who claimed to have seen him sniffing substances?

Yeah that's the one. If we sign him, we might as well take Joey Barton off of QPR's hands.

yep

Remy is worth a look in my opinion. If it is Spurs Dempsey might be involved. But there are a lot of young powerful strikers in Europe and I would bet decent money lambert has a dossier on most, and will buy one that will do well.

The question is do we buy now or risk losing out on players while waiting for benteke to go?

Do we know the timeframe the club has given for a club to come in with the cash for Benteke?

I would imagine possibly by the end of the month?
Seems clear from the statement there is a date they must have an acceptable bid by to consider selling.

If Chelsea come in for Benteke, would there be a chance of Demba Ba coming to us?

Possibly , not sure i would want him to be honest, I'd rather straight cash or lukaku in part ex - ba doesn't cut the mustard for me.

I would take remy from qpr adryan the brazillian 17 year old from flumenasi and and santana off dortmund as cbs replacments I think we would be well on our way with those 3 plus gary gardner back

[eastie]

Just when I thought most of our transfer activity was done , the next month could be very interesting on here.

So we replace one mercenary for another who is on more money and worse? No thanks.

[mr underhill]

I think Remy is in court in September which if so, would tend to rule out a move to anywhere before January for all but the very brave

Its the next level of players to. I mean im happy with ouf dealings so far but now we can kick on and get a really exciting player or 2 in

[eastie]

Nurnberg can expect us back with an improved bid possibly .

[Holy Trinity]

Nurnberg can expect us back with an improved bid possibly .

with any luck yes. we do need exactly that type of player

[PaulWinch again]

I can't say I'm overly excited about losing our best player.

Me neither pwa but I'm used to it - it's happened so many times down the years and I'm sure it will happen again - onwards and upwards.
