Summer 2015 - Transfer Rumours, Speculation & Suggestions

[PaulWinch again]

I see we've been linked with Yannick Bolasie.

[Chris Jameson]

The club now needs a massive lift.

and adebayor isn't going to do it.

If we're getting a massive lift at least he'd fit in it without having to stoop.

[ADVILLAFAN]

I suspect that of the really big earners, there's only Gabby left.

I wish we could move Gabby on. Last night's friendly was a great demonstration of how utterly mediocre he is.

He also looked a bit overweight to me. Like we had Alexander O'Neal up front.

'All you want to do is criticise'

Was scrolling through in desperate hope no one had made that joke yet.

Damn You

And LeeB, who made it a couple of pages before.

Love that song, will be singing it for hours now.

We seem to be going down the Newcastle route of signing French based players. Then again I suppose we  are the Midlands version of Newcastle.

No he wouldn't but Adebayor on loan for a year wouldn't be a bad move I'm thinking.  We wouldn't have to pay his full wages and we know he produced results when working with Sherwood.  Of course if there's another guaranteed Benteke waiting in the winds then it doesn't matter.

[Stirchley Villain]

Adebayor and someone young and hungry with potential, another Benteke (yes, I know) in other words, would be fine for me. I think a year loan would be more than enough for EA.

€20 million fee agreed for Rolan according to facebook.

Around £16m gets you Djeko. May be a bit too similar to Kozak though ?

[Ryu]

Where is this link from?  I think he's a good, if erratic winger.  Can really destroy a full back.

Adebayor up top on loan then

Will he need any help?

[Ryu]

Adebayor up top on loan then

Have you heard something?

Him on loan and one of the young prospects we've been linked with, plus one of the wingers and I wouldnt be too unhappy with out attacking options. No idea what to do about central midfielde though.

Lots of work to Do Tim!

I reckon we'll be desperately praying that one of Sanchez/Gardner/Westwood/maybe even Calder steps up as a competent partner for Gueye in a midfield two. Even if Sherwood settles on a 4-3-3 we might have to witness the possibility of Richardson and Bacuna spending time as that third midfielder who's crap in possession but offers some headless-chicken energy. Not great, but the optimist in me says we'll scrape by on that providing two or three good attacking players come in.

Nope.
