Summer 2015 - Transfer Rumours, Speculation & Suggestions

[Goldie.7]

Gueye in £9m
Praet heavily linked £10m
Amavi heavily linked £9m
Chery heavily linked £3.5

= near enough £32.5m

Judging by other managers first window they do get to spend more than the next but it's head scratching as to where these large sums are coming from if it's not our best players being sold.

Maybe. But it could be an impending take over / us having cleared our debts / a massive influx of TV money / getting bent, cleverley, possibly vlaar, benteke and who knows delph off the wage bill

[hartman_1982]

I think the point being made that if you were spending the money coming in from Benteke then surely some of it would have gone on a target man?

Fingers crossed the takeover is looming....

The OS haven't even mentioned Helenius being released and re-signed by another club and that was 3 days ago.

We don't know anything about Kozak's recovery, but if the club is optimistic about that, I don't think they need to go out of their way to ensure that the (hypothetical) replacement striker is a target man. So long as they can score goals and fit in with the rest of our players, methinks.

Isn't this coming season the worst season to go down and miss out on the new TV deal money which kicks in the season after ?

[Goldie.7]

I would also like us to go back in for Robert Beric. He seems to know where the goal is and for £4m could be good business for both clubs.

Unrealistic to think Sherwood would rely on Kozak having probably never seen him play close up in a match and, importantly, coming back from a serious injury that he may not fully recover from.  It does not matter how he looks in training or in practice matches, his fitness will not be truly tested until he is back playing in the 1st team at PL level.

Didn't we already have a bid of about 5m accepted for amavi but couldn't agree terms?

Edit:  Apparently not, although the accepted opinion seemed to be he didn't fancy us. Goes to show what the Internet goes I suppose.

Looks like the same pattern as Spurs a couple if years back and Liverpool last summer when they went on sprees with the Bale and Suarez money. I just hope it is not the same outcome.

Very difficult to bring in a big group of players in and integrate them seamlessly.

I don't think he can be officially announced till work permit  comes through.

Or we could just sign one player and stay shit.
