Summer 2016: Transfer rumours and suggestions

[Ozzjim]

Telegraph say we are interested in Jedinak and Ledley from Palace. Both would walk into the side in front of Westwood and Gardner.

Jedinak or Ledley not Jedinak & Ledley

[Phil from the upper holte]

I'd get in ahead of Westwood he's crap

[Steve67]

Joe Ledley? Any good? Underwhelming or a good potential signing? I don't know a great deal about him.

[PaulWinch again]

Jedinak would suit us. We have some talent, but getting character and grit in our squad is vital.

Interested in both, but would be happy with either. I was simply stating both would walk into the side in front of what we have. I personally with Sanchez Gana and Veretout leaving would think we need at least 2, maybe 3 central midfielders. Straight swap the 2 of them for Westwood.

Totally agree, perhaps Pardew would be silly enough to think Westwood is a Prem standard player....&....we'd promise to never mention 'the dad dance' again :-)

[Rudy Can't Fail]

What was wrong with Westwood? He can adapt to any country with his pointing.

Sanchez is a very talented player that plays far too much football (club plus international) year after year and it's more than evident it's caught up with him. If he were to stay he'd need to retire from international football. A season out on loan and at his age makes him worthless in 12 months time.

If we sign a couple of midfielders and Westwood stays, the worrying thing for me is that Westwood would still somehow manage to convince RDM that he's one of the first names on the team sheet...or we'd get hit with an injury curse and he'd be first choice midfield option. What a fuckin nightmare that would be.

I'd say a very good signing. Mostly for the reason that he will follow the trend of signing Tommy Elphick in bringing in passion and desire to the team. Excellent work-rate and not bad technically either.

[KRS]

This rumour of a new midfielder coming in that will "excite" fans is very intriguing...will it be a young battling Championship level midfielder, or an experienced Premier League player...may be a current or former international player. Hopefully we'll get a couple of decent and experienced new players that can hit the ground running in midfield soon.

Certainly good enough for where we find ourselves.  Left footed as well, so would give the midfield a better balance.

As the Welsh sing:

AIN'T NOBODY
LIKE JOE LEDLEY
MAKES ME HAPPY
MAKES ME FEEL THIS WAY

Chaka Khan!

I do think Westwood is made the scapegoat for our woes. He played alright in the second half the other day. He's not brilliant, but he's nowhere near as poor as he's made out to be.
