Summer 2015 - Transfer Rumours, Speculation & Suggestions

[Salsa Party Animal]

I would be looking for next Martin Laursen for central defender as we need someone to head in goals. All those new signings and there is no vikings like Mellberg/Laursen

[Stirchley Villain]

Caulker? I'd have had him on loan.

Suppose he could have fought it out with Baker and Senderos for fourth choice central defender.

Never injured (apart from the time outside the pub)... so you can throw Clark and Richards into the bag too.

So I've just noticed the Berbatov link. That would be a ludicrous signing, right out of the Villakicks book of Football Manager 2007 daydreams, but I am a huge Berbatov fan. In terms of post 30 former spurs strikers, I'd probably take him over Adebayor. It would be a disaster but there'd be a handful of games where he felt like it, where he'd undoubtedly look a class apart.

Dipped last few seasons from promise at Swansea.

Might be an indication Southampton will dip a bit this season with europe and them losing more key players as Caulker will be a first choice.

Alan Nixon thinks we're negotiating still for gestede

I'd have thought we've enough in that position and need more elsewhere

[pauliewalnuts]

I just watched a youtube of every one of Gestede's goals last season, and pretty much every single one of them was inside the six yard box.

Struck me as very much a Darren Bent style player.

Jordan Rhodes is the one most like Darren Bent. Gestede is a target man.

Liverpool really struggled to deal with Gestede in the FA Cup quarter final games. I remember thinking that if Benteke were to go, he could be someone that comes in.

Michu approached says whispers on Twitter. Been bang on so far about most things

I saw that.

Although I also saw this:

Michu no jugará en el Deportivo. El Aston Villa parece ser su destino.

from a sports journalist in La Coruna half an hour ago.

[OCD]

I'm beginning to think Sherwood spent too long working alongside Harry Redknapp. Someone should remind him that we can't have a squad bigger than 25.

[pauliewalnuts]

FWIW, I'd take a punt on Michu.

[Summers]

Michu is busted, I think. Shame as he was quality when fit.

I'd be happy with Gestede coming in.
