Summer 2016: Transfer rumours and suggestions

[footyskillz]

Lots of agents speak to Media outlets BBC regional journos and Bt sports and Sky Sports News tipping or trying to cause a stir. Thats generally how leaks come about. People who know the player. Agents try to do the best for clients and use the media so managers and chairmen go into frenzy into making speculative deals.
The other way is genuine sightings of players who are staying at a hotel , airport or train travel or at a service station!  With Twitter it can be put out that a player is somewhere instantly.

Well less than 48 hours to, how many more do we reckon then? I am going for a disappointing 2, neither being anywhere near what we wanted and some good old school hand wringing and doom mongering to be had.

i think we get a centre forward and a n other.
More importantly who do you think will get shipped out?

[footyskillz]

The late moves out
Hutton
Richards
Westwood
Traore
Maybe even ayew or kozack

I think the last 2 will depend on who comes in.

Lot of last minute deals next 2 days for ahost of clubs which will be knock on effects . For e.g. Watford sold vydra to derby after then signed okaku. Derby sell on Chris Martin to wolves.

Forrest have 13 million to spend ...
All very interesting.

[KRS]

I doubt we'll be getting rid of Westwood, Ayew, Hutton or Kozak this season, and I'd say Traore going is also unlikely at this stage...but I'd be fine with any of them going as long as replacements are brought in to strengthen the side in the right places. It would also be great if we can ship out Richards and Gabby.

We really need that centre forward and another midfielder regardless of who leaves. A winger would be great, but we do have a couple of wide options already at the club with Green and if Traore ends up staying and knuckles down.

[Matt C]

I'd be surprised if nobody takes Richards but other than that and maybe a younger player or two heading out on loan, I think that will be it for outgoings. Two more to come in.

[Matt Collins]

I can't see it being more than two at this stage

I'm starting to think we may end up paying over the odds for some guys just to fill up the numbers

[mr underhill]

everybody will overpay thanks to the amount of money sloshing around.  it goes in one end and straight out of the other - i.e. to the players/agents.

[Ron Manager]

The only situation I can think of re moving Agbonlahor on in this window would be to Walsall on loan.That depends on two factors

1.Would they have him
2.Would driving to Bescot be too much for him.
 
We would have course have to pay all of his considerable salary but at least it would get him out of the house.

[sid1964]

I think it may be a couple of loans, I notice that Pulis said yesterday that Lambert will leave the Albion before Wednesday, could he be on his way to us?

Also I am surprised that we have not tried to get Afobe from Bournemouth, he is currently not in their starting 11

[Dante Lavelli]

Afobe would be a good deal I think and not too fanciful either. 

What did they sign him for?  What is evident is that there has been another gear change in prices in the PL.  Chadli was signed for about £7m but sold to WBA for over £13m, there are probably loads of other examples too (Benteke?).

[Witton Warrior]

I think it may be a couple of loans, I notice that Pulis said yesterday that Lambert will leave the Albion before Wednesday, could he be on his way to us?

Rickety Lambert? Dear Gods another Grant Holt then...

[PaulWinch again]

I really doubt it's going to be Lambert, we're looking to sign pace.

[godzvilla]

Sky just reporting that we have made a 20 million pound bid for Hernandez.....Godzvilla!

[sid1964]

£20 million bid, the football world has gone mad!, this transfer window, the fees that are being paid for average footballers is unbelievable

[brian green]

Such is the prize money of the Premiership.  Corner shops need not apply.
