Summer 2015 - Transfer Rumours, Speculation & Suggestions

Burnley are also apparently close to a £2 million deal for Baker.

That's a bit of a Spursism from us to actually make a £1.5 million profit on your 4th choice centre half.

Did we buy Baker then, I thought he came through the ranks?

Sorry, I meant this Crespo guy looks like our new 4th centre half/utility player at the back.

Its not often you make a profit swapping out your 4th centre half.

One of the things that pleases me most about our recent improved organisation is the fact that we have finally started to actually sell players - by which I mean fringe players rather than ones we'd prefer to keep.

I suspect if we sign Gestede we won't be signing Ade, hence the delay.
Maybe Kozak's pre-season performances have given Tim food for thought.

No - Adebayor is only a loan deal and Tim rates him - we also need experience in the squad. I think Adebayor will thrive under TS as he did at Spurs.

[Des Little]

Adebayor to complete today. Veretout/Gestede to complete tomorrow and Bolasie to follow early next week.  That's the vision from the DL crystal ball.

[Matt Collins]

Bolasie? No way

Bolasie? No way

I like him but he would cost a bomb.

I think the fact that a number of these fringe players were previously our first team regulars combined with the level of clubs they are going to sums up the last few years.

There's been stupid-money figures floating around for Bolasie. £20m+

I'm sorry, but the crystal ball has spoken.

I quite like Baker but I don't think that Villa will regret selling him (see Cahill, G.).

Maybe Donacien will be kept around this season and given some cup games

It's easy when you were'nt the manager that signed them and sell them for a loss or cancel their contracts.

The contract cancelling bit, we've always been good at, it's the selling the dross part that we've struggled with.

I really can't fancy a player whose name ends (albeit phonetically) with the word lazy.

Another day goes by without us linked to a centre half called Jordan. I'm worried.

Joe Jordan to join his old mate Butch Wilkins on the coaching staff might be next.
