Summer 2015 - Transfer Rumours, Speculation & Suggestions

[aj2k77]

I've thought the u21's looked poor.

You have Butland in goal who didn't get that many games last season I don't think. Lindgard, who's crap and also didn't play often. Garbutt same problem. They don't seem to be getting the game time they did years ago do they.

We've been linked with Tom Carroll. He's disappointed  at Swansea but I'm liking what I'm seeing so far

I think he's been poor, Chalobah is the best midfielder on the pitch for me, he'd be worth a look.

Turn it in son. William carvalho class apart. But chalobah best english player. Hughes was awfula s was ward prowse whos only got a set piece in him but cant even kick it properly!

In the 90s Michael Oakes seemed to be first choice keeper for the u21s for half a decade even though he never got off our bench.

Townsend 1/4 to join us on skybet

It's such a small market, for his odds to go from 5/1 to 1/4 probably involved one person putting £2.50 on.

£1/4 Million?  £250,000?  Probably about right

Hope they're right. Would be an exciting signing.

So far in his career he has only scored a bit less frequently than Weimann has for us. So as long as he doesn't cost us any more than we've just received from Derby.

Onwards and upwards.

At the point I posted that (i.e. half time) William Carvalho had barely been involved, but good job being patronizing.

He's more an out and out winger. Goals aren't going to be the only way to measure his success.

He's a current England player. It's pretty rare, even when we were good, for us to sign one of them.

He has pace and skill. He'll occasionally bung one into the stand but so did Tony Daley and I liked him.

We're signing proper players to go straight into the team. We're paying proper wages. It's about time.

Agreed. Townsend would be an almost immeasurable upgrade on Weimann in my opinion.

Agreed. Townsend would be an almost immeasurable upgrade on Weimann in my opinion.

At about 4 times the price, I would hope so.

Benteke up front. Sinclair, Grealish and Sinclair swarming at defenders behind him.

That sounds good to me. Might not be particularly solid at the back but defending is boring anyway.

2 Sinclair's ?

I thought Chalobah looked excellent last season too. Well worth a loan in my opinion.
