Summer 2015 - Transfer Rumours, Speculation & Suggestions

[Matt C]

This may have already been covered but when Sherwood said he's told some senior players to look for new clubs who do we reckon he's talking about? Gabby, Vlaar, Hutton? Who else?

Most of those that have been out on loan, Weimann, Cissoko, Guzan maybe?

Not Vlaar and maybe not even Gabby (although he should) but Weimann for certain, Gil, Cole, Senderos, Guzan, N'Zogbia, Luna, Helnius, Tonev (is he still with us), Sylla (is he still with us), Hutton, Cissoko, Herd, Lowton, ........fuck me it's a long list.

You look at the Club and you really have the hand it to Lambert - he's created a stinking pile and absolute shite for a squad hasn't he.

Actually it is realistic players i mentions as senderos , cole and cleverly were brought in before. And having been linked with Rio Ferdinand, lambert, fletcher and lescott then my suggestions are actually realistic to this time.
So 33 year old Nolan would nt be a shock. Esp as west ham getting new boss players will be moved on
Anyone can link spurs or ex spurs players my suggestions based on out of contract, size of fee, fresh challenges, which is often better and closer than the garbage the internet and papers talk.

What's Cleverley got to do with Kevin Nolan?

Very harsh on Lambert imo, with the budget he had I dont think his transfer dealings were that bad. The profit of selling Benteke will cover a lot of the squad filler/bargain basement buys he was forced to shop from. Guzan was a success story too that deserves a second chance.

Would like to see the following senior pros gone in the summer - Vlaar, Hutton (final straw yesterday), Cissokho, Nzogbia, Weimann, Gabby

Will be very hard to shift the likes of Given, Cole, Senderos with 12 months left on their deals, Given and Senderos are ok as backup players. Cole looks about 45 these days on the pitch

Apart from youngsters Bennett, Luna, Helanius, Tonev and Sylla are all out on loan aren't they? But thanks Oz, I'm glad I'm not the only one who has got a bit confused and lost track of some of our former managers signings.

[PaulWinch again]

Let's be honest we clearly need to bring some quality into the club. But that doesn't look likely at the moment.

[curiousorange]

Whatever we think will improve the club, we won't get them with pocket change, and if it's the Lerner policy to give Sherwood the Benteke money and nothing else, that's what it would be. So you have to replace the only player we've got who is even approaching world class, plus every other department, for thirty two million quid? I'm not saying that is Lerner's policy, but given he's banging on about retreating from his role even further, it stands a chance he's not going to start lavishing money on the club like. The Great Gatsby.

New owner, or we're probably going to be in the Championship in 365 days' time.

N'doye?

[edgysatsuma89]

He needs to play the quality we have in the team, e.g. Gil, and not play dross, e.g. N'zogbia. Why would you stick with N'zogbia? What has he done? I don't know his stats since sherwood came in but how many assists has he made? Goals? It's ridiculous. In a number 10 position where your very remit is to create. And it's Sherwood who has stuck with him. I know it will be said 'well he played when we was winning', agreed, and he was still poor in a winning team in my opinion.

[john e]

can I just say, anyone on here and I mean anyone that writes stuff like ' I think theres a player in Nzogbia still' or 'Nzogbia's worth keeping' needs to go and watch rugby or find a new sport because football is one you know ziltch about

[ROBBO]

There will be enough shit written over the next few weeks to fill a sewerage plant, someone should grab hold of Lerner and tell him that if he doesn't either sell or put decent money up for good players we will go down next season. Please Villa no more crappy lower league or has been players.

Lerner wants to sell, he doesn't need anyone grabbing him
would you be happy to have a consortium who have had to borrow half the money to buy it, like the one headed by Adams
because I'm telling you things could get a whole lot worse

This is it. I'd rather he takes his time and sells to the right people rather than the first who will just give him his money back.

[mr underhill]

true, but principles don't come cheap; it's all well and good Lerner adhering to the line of only selling to those that only meet exacting financial standards and have a moral imperative to honour and respect the club's traditions , but in the interim, we are where we have been for four years - in total limbo. Agreed, money isn't the only factor that governs success -  look at Swansea etc., - but this club needs sustainable, wise investment, plenty of it, and fast.
