Foluwashola Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Can't see Jonas playing as anything but a winger. Gosling is still a bit of an unknown entity. Barton/Tiote/Cabaye would have been ideal tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Well, we need a bare-ass minimum of three players (striker, replacements for Barton and Enrique) now and I'd prefer that we add a defender of some sort to that. Optimistic idiot that I am, it's hard for me to imagine us signing four player in a month. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 You'll probably resort to a loan or two, I'd imagine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I don't mind loans, but our track record with those is terrible. I don't think we've ever had a good one Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Rossi. We had him on the bench behind Shola, Sibierski and Luque. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Well, regardless of whether he was a good player back then, it wasn't a "good" loan deal for us given our refusal to use him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Simpson was a good loan. Not as good as Khizanishvili though.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Doesn't look like you're signing old players, but there is a list of free transfers in Marca today, with some decent names: Vicente M. Diarra Hargreaves Legrottaglie Tamudo Asier Del Horno Oleguer Jarosik Could do worse than Diarra if you need cover for Tiote. Some other experienced backups in that list.

Do you know how Nelson Valdez did last season? According to wiki, he has a 5m euro buyout clause. Might be realistic since he plays for a relegated side...

He did pretty well, but he's not a prolific striker, more of a support player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 The money from Enrique and Routledge "should" be used on M'Bengue and Nathan Clyne, and the rest "should" be used on a winger a striker and a CB! Should should should should.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifu Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 I see that the Daily Mail are reporting that the mackems have some sort of "interest" in Adam Johnson with a possible loan deal on the cards. If this rumour has any substance, then we should probably try and bring the lad in on loan (unlikely with wages being a stumbling block). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this rumour has any substance, then we should probably try and bring the lad in on loan (unlikely with wages being a stumbling block). I was browsing blue moon the other day and City fans were saying they don't want Johnson anywhere near their first team. If we were anyway serious about brining players in we should be straight in with a bid, especially after the whole Zog saga. He clearly won't fit in to City's long term plans.

But then again, if the N'Zogbia saga is anything to go by, we'll just put a low bid in. Once that's rejected, Pardew will say, "oh well, we tried!" A loan deal would suit both parties I reckon (with City paying some of his wages?) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
