Summer 2015 - Transfer Rumours, Speculation & Suggestions

[mr underhill]

let's not for every Benteke think Tony Moon. No our Lambert days are over.

[aj2k77]

Fabio Borini is utter shit, how Liverpool nearly got £12m for him is anyone's guess.

[UK Redsox]

Let's get benteke's younger brother shipped in. I don't care if he's worse than Jordan Bowery - keep the beast happy

My local rugby club once signed Tim Horan's brother on the basis that he was, well... Tim Horan's brother.

It did not work out too well.

[Fasth56]

Did we not sign Neil Rioch to get Bruce Rioch?

[olaftab]

And Alan to keep Brian company!

Lambert's signings were better overall than oneill's and much better than houllier and mcelish's turned out

Benteke 7, okore 4, Westwood 1, bacuna 1.5, Guzan free, possibly even kozak we'll see

Some bad ones too no doubt. But our squad is better now than at any time since houllier and that's been achieved on peanuts

[Toronto Villa]

bit harsh on Houllier considering that he only had a January window to work with. Brought in Bent and Kyle Walker both of whom contributed positively to us staying up.

And Makoun.

He's not utter shit he's just not great.

[Matt Collins]

Houllier spent the beat part of 30m on bent and makoun. Perhaps bent was the difference in keeping us up but he definitely didn't turn out to warrant that fee in the long run

[aj2k77]

Links with a £12m bid for Robertson, the Hull fullback. I think I can say on behalf of Aston Villa that we won't be signing any £12m fullbacks this summer.

That was how much it cost to get Sunderland to play ball, and his goals over the next 12 months kept us up twice, so he more than paid his fee back.

If the alternative was don't pay it, who would we have got in for less (or better value over the course of a 4-5 year contract) that would have had the same immediate impact?

Robertson 12 million? They've been on the funny fags. He's an okay player, nothing more.

And yes, short of a takeover we won't spend that much on a defender I don't think.

This was also the window Torres went for 50 mill and Carroll went for 35 wasn't it? So I think we certainly got our money's worth.

Suarez for 20m was also that window, so not so great too.
