Summer Transfer Thread and Gustavo Cisneros Type Rumours.

Seems we're clearing the decks...……….

[Footy-Vill]

It’s very odd if there is money there for the “right deal”. We should be actively seeking the right deal, it’s an area where we’re not strong enough.

Who said that we aren't?

Time for a stock take Deano !
With CH out on loan let's have one more in .

[Beard82]

Hmm - think they be annoucings winks or RLC soon....

[RussellC]

Phillip Billing or Ainsley Maitland Niles don't people think they would be useful?
More so than Harry stinks

I'd say there's a similar chance of Arsenal selling Maitland-Niles to us as there was Smith- Rowe. None at all. Good player though.

Supposedly off to Everton, loan with an option to buy. Would have been a good option for us, but one of those players who seems to be too versatile for his own good.

Pretty sure in three years Ramsey the Elder will be on the golf-punditry merry-go-round.

Jacob will be 23 in 3 years' time: hardly ready for the sofa.

Aaron Ramsey the Elder, then! Ramsey the Eldest. As opposed to Ramsey-the-glint-in-the-milkman's-eye.

Is Winks better than Nkamba?

I know he's become something of a byword for mediocrity, but my answer would be yes, by some distance I would think.

Is he signficantly better than Luiz would be more of a question mark for me. He's barely played in last 18 months for Spurs beyond games in cups.

Feels like Tom Cleverley signing when he last had a good game 2-3 years before we got him and he just spent six months floating around midfield doing very little before Sherwood got 5 good games out of him.

[LeeB]

I'm not saying we should sign him, but he's a better footballer than Nakamba.

[Risso]

Most of our emergency/last minute transfers and loans have completely sucked. Drinkwater, Baston, Samatta, Carroll. All a complete waste of time, and in the case of 'Drinky', actully made us noticeably worse.

Little references like this remind me why I am on the right forum.

Winks could finally be the Jenas replacement we've all been crying out for all these years.

We've been missing someone like that since Mark Kinsella.

Ashley Westwood? Winks is shite too

[Percy McCarthy]

We probably don’t need a midfielder who blocks the path of the Ramsey brothers, Chuk etc, although I’m a fan of Cantwell. We need one who blocks the path of Nakamba and stops McGinn playing in the wrong position.

[PaulWinch again]

Our midfield was already light if we’re letting Conor go we have to get someone in. I just fear we’ve left it too late for a player with the requisite quality.

[Scott Nielsen]

Winks would be massively underwhelming. Almost more underwhelming than no one at all.

Sad but true.

Something like a defensive midfielder then Perce?
