Summer 2015 - Transfer Rumours, Speculation & Suggestions

[Matt Collins]

We can't assume benteke goes and assume we don't spend any of the money to improve the side

But I agree the side above would be relegated

I've got a funny feeling Gardner is going to break through this year.

[walsall villain]

How do you work that out?

Purely based on fear! I was hoping for signs that our nett spend would be more this year. Of course it still might be but I feel a wave of pessimism tonight. I am getting this horrible feeling that the much berated press were right all along and Benteke will soon be next.

We've just spent £9 million in a midfielder and have apparently had £5 million and £9 million bids for defenders accepted, while offering a player £65k per week.

We are operating in a different market.

[Villafirst]

I hope this is the last window with Lerner in control. After 9 years he's wrecked the club. Can't wait to see the back of him and his stupid silence all the time.

[Villatillidie25]

The issue being we need to bring these players in just to stand still and with the added risk that they won't be as good as Delph, Benteke and Vlaar.
So we need 3 comparable players (with a bit of luck we have 2 already) just to still remain bang average and a bottom half team. Only then can we think about pressing on and improving

Not really. We have the new TV money yet again we are scrimping and doing things on the cheap. Benteke will go in the next few weeks and sherwood will probably get about 50% of the proceeds to make do with.

Feel totally mugged off tonight by the club.

[Le Lapin]

The Gueye signing, if true, should be a feel-good event for us. But with the shite with Delph it all has an empty feeling. Sherwood has his work cut out for him this season.

the club was wrecked when he bought it too.

The last O'Leary/Ellis season was awful, not as bad as the last two though statistically

Two out of that three are actually not that good. They constitute one third of a team that all but got relegated last season and that produced some seriously embarrassing performances

Wrecked? In what way?

[silhillvilla]

Let's just hope sherwood has an eye for a player. Micah Richards is his first ever signing as a manager and I'd say it's a good start, Gueye is a bit of an unknown quantity.

Guzan
Hutton Richards Clark Richardson
Sanchez      Gueye
Grealish                Gil               Sinclair
Kozak

Top 8 side.

That's a scary team and one likely to deliver on 5 years of struggle finally ending in relegation.

The 5 0 at spurs that season was awful. Most heartless display I can remember.

There is no evidence we won't spend too replace. Let's see what happens before being critical this summer

We've had far far worse since

Ive said it before but I firmly believe Micah Richards will be a disaster of a signing for us

those full backs wont improve next season

the four up front have played about 3.5 good games for us in total
