Transfer Speculation / Gossip

[ozzjim]

I'd have a look at Amalfitano.

If he is not signing for Albion I would do more than have a look.

[Duncan Shaw]

Indeed.
Been gossip column linking Harry with Fwank and Rio this morning in surely the most predictable link ever.  Think he'll Hoover up Cashley too.  Anyone who thinks Fernandes won't pay stupid money for aged players needs to remind themselves who their manager is!

[Steve67]

If it is correct that we have very little money to spend, what position should Lambert prioritise? DCM?

[claret and blue blood]

We have to sign a big strong defensive midfielder who can break up play and carry it forward to the opposition,can't remember the last decent one we had Barry maybe ?

Petrov

[ozzjim]

Petrov was more a reader, interceptor and starter. Reo Coker broke the play up brilliantly, only to give the damned ball straight back to the opposition.

Petrov

I seem to remember a lot of "crab" comments on the match threads.

[saunders_heroes]

Petrov and Barry rarely gave away possession. It's only when they were not in the team did many fans start to appreciate them.

He was pretty useless for most of his time at Villa.

Errr.....

[SoccerHQ]

We just need more creativity in the final third, at least then we'll see if the strikers are actually good enough then.

Is a year's loan for say Lewis Holtby really out of the question? I'd sign up for that and hoolahan right now.

[ozzjim]

Me too. Holtby will be in their side under Poccetino though.

[Des Little]

If Poccetino goes to Spuds, we should get De Boer in quick sharp.

he wasn't that bad


His first two seasons is what I meant, after that, when he played deeper he improved.
