Summer 2016: Transfer rumours and suggestions

[pbavfckuwait]

We need more because the bench yesterday was awful.

[mr underhill]

Six would probably be the minimum really as we are starting from such a low base - yesterday was a good result, given the side we were able to field .

[London Villan]

We won't sign six more players now. It will be 2 or 3, max, including a loan or two.

[ldavfc4eva]

I wonder how much Charlie Austin would cost and if Southampton would let him go, him up top with McCormack behind and Jack and Ayew out wide would rip the division up.

Probably a no go though, as some one posted earlier Jay Rodriguez on loan would be a good shout, similar with Ings on loan for the season.

Kozak looked way off to me and we need one more up front and if Gestede stays then we don't need both as they are too similar.

[Gareth]

2 maybe 3 more in then let it bed down for a couple of months & then RDM will be able to clearly see if further changes needed in Jan window.

Centre forward, right back essential - centre mid or wide player would be nice.

[Steve67]

Newsnow has Morrison in, Veretout out. I'd be happy with that. The forward is the tricky bit, I understand Tony 's tweet now! Who the he'll do we go for?

forward wise i think we are okay, it would be a left back (amavi wide left in midfield) and another two central midfielders

Not having a pop mate but how are we ok forward wise? Did you see Kozak yesterday? Ayew isn't an out and out striker, McCormack likes to drop deep, Gestede is good in the air but has the mobility of an oil tanker.

We need a striker with pace who can get in behind and give us an outlet. Hernandez at Hull would be perfect but would he drop down a level?


I still think we need another midfielder with something different aswell, in both league away games so far there hasn't been a spark and there looks a lack of creativity in midfield. Ravel Morrison could be the answer, he would excite the fans but his attitude is obviously questionable.

[footyskillz]

Sounds like able Hernandez is one of the 4 or 5 and hopefully the one of two in. V Decent if fee can be agreeed! Rumour dropping up again it's great he wants to come here

Ravel  Morrison being the other one of all the speculatuon accurate. Hopefully get those 2 early and a couple more id targets aewnt too similar maybe some loan of bamford

[Clampy]

Morrison has been left out of the Lazio squad apparently for today's game. I think we need another forward and possibly another centre half although I think he'll play Richards there if he needs to unfortunately.

[edgysatsuma89]

I know Kozak was crap but the bloke has barely played for a long time. I'm usually brutal but some of you are 'well harsh'.

Might as well write off whatever game Richards plays at centre back, the blokes a disaster. I thought Baker and Clark were poor but this guy takes it to a new level of bad defending.

The talented but controversial former Manchester United starlet was left out of the Lazio squad for their season opener against Atalanta because he is close to a move to Villa Park, according to Corriere Dello Sport.
Morrison has only made eight appearances for Lazio since moving last year.
Will the 23-year-old's turbulent career settle down under Roberto Di Matteo?

If he's only made 8 appearances for them, it surely isn't inconceivable that he's just been left out of the squad.  As much as there may be talent there, I'd rather not.  We need characters, yes, just not that sort of character.
