Realistic Transfer Targets January 2011


Recommended Posts

 

Would be pointless.  Just made-up rubbish that, iyam.

or covering ourselves incase of outlandish bids for our better players which may unsettle them into wanting away. not saying it's right or true but if we are looking at a 6ft 8" forward aswell

On the other note, I wouldn't say no to a Buy Now Pay Later 6 months interest free £4m deal for Keane.

 

EDIT: Only if Spurs threw in a coffee table and a rug too. And a Parker pen.

No point. He wouldn't come here unless he was absolute first choice.

 

Since when has Wayne Bridge cared about being first-choice?

 

Put it this way. Stay at Man City and not play, or up sticks and move to another city and probably end up with less money.

on bridge i could see why padrew may be looking at him for cover/competition for jose considering how reliant we are on him to stay fit, the problem being ma would not pay his wages unless pardews managed to trigger some sudden desire to spend cash

anyone else not had the scary thought that Pardew is to Ashley as what Souness was to Shepherd and that he might have taken leave of his senses and thought feck this, lets have a real crack at this and splash the cash.

 

No? - me neither !

Right now everything seems to be pointed at us spending cash, Ashley may see it as he has someone he can trust to spend his money and wants to make sure relegation is not possible by securing some decent players.

 

End of the day relegation would financially cripple the club, Ashley must make sure its not going to happen and the best way is to add to the decent core we've already got.

 

I'm optimistic we'll get two attacking signings with decent reps through the door before the window closes, people will respond its Ashley and he's tight etc...and there's a chance they are right, but I think there's just as much chance we do something half decent in this window as well.

Jose hasn't looked quite himself this last few weeks. The other players have adjusted to the change of manager, but his focus seems to have gone a bit. I don't know how settled he is in England and the North east in particular, but if you've been wondering about moving on, the loss of Hughton could be the trigger / excuse you need.

 

So Bridge for Jose wouldn't be the most earth-shattering news.

Conversely, if his Twitter is anything to go by, he's just about the most happy, settled player ever.

 

Well, as I said, I don't know the personal angle, but during Hughton's spell in charge, he was probably our most improved player. And I think his performances have slipped a bit since Hughton's departure. Not a lot, just a bit, like he's lost a bit of confidence.
