Realistic Transfer Targets

Recommended Posts

I'm not sure about the Italian CB, why should he be good enough for Castle when he doesn't play regularly for Cesena? I also spoke to a couple of Serie A fans, no one really knows of him. We need Verthongen! :)

 

I'd also jump for Sow at almost any price!

 

Just like Santon? Vertonghen would be great, but if we're keeping Colo, there's no chance we'll spend huge like that. Would be well pleased with Benalouane as an option to have.

 

Haven't seen much of Cissé tbh, but reckon he's better than Sow. A guy with a clumsy style and only one good season.

To be fair, I think Santon was 'proven' under Mourinho, this dood nobody seem to know, besides Carr et al. But, then again, he haven't made any poor judgements yet. I'm not blaming Carr for Obertan, moar like Pardew :o

 

Also, Verthongen would cost, but he's 24 y/o? Would easily get those chunks of money back if he held the level of the premiership. But if not him, what about his belgian mate Alderweireld. Should be a bit cheaper and got good ball skills just like Colo.

I think one more quality centre back like Vertonghen is the one thing we need to let the current NUFC take the next step and really battle for europe. A lot of people talks about getting in a better cover at the centre back position that Perch. I dont think that is enough. We should get a qualiy player in for this important position. Saylor is always injured and Williamson is good in the PL but not good enough if we want to take the next step.

We should look at Belgium youth, there's some really decent talent there. Unfortunately, it looks like Pardew and Carr is more focused about pushing the transfer potential out from France.

 

Yep, what a disaster...

I am happy with the squad we have at present and think that the only new recruit we will get will be a young defender, possibly Williams from Boro.

 

We will not buy a quality CH unless Colocinni is sold in the summer and maybe this Vetoghen bloke is being lined up as a replacement if Colo doesnt sign his contract by then. With Taylor back next season and Williamson a capab le deputy, we dont really need another top class centre half unless Colo is sold.

 

I also think the club might be looking at the likes of Hoilett who is staying with Blackburn till the end of the season when his contract is up as a viable signing. If so, I would not expect much more  business than that in the summer unless one of the so called stars is sold.

Williams is just a better version of Perch, comfortable at defensive mid, right back and centre back. Dont think wed sign him as a centre back only.

I dont consider them to be realistic at the pricesd we would be quoted.

 

For example, Barnetta is a free agent in the summer

Vertoghen is too expensive and possibly out of our reach

Cissokho is a possible but not a priority in my opinion. I also think Lyon are trying to hawk him around at way over his market value.

 

In my opinion, I would rather wait till the summer and get Hoillett on a free

Moses from Wigan might be an option this window as he doesnt seem to want to sign a new contract

I would take a loan CH for the remainder of the season, possibly Ridgewell anmd then look at Vertoghen in the summer if Colocinni doesnt sign his contract

Sorry mate, didnt read your post properly. End of summer.

 

OK, here goes

 

This window

Sign Morrison from Man Utd

Sign Williams, I really think he is a good prospect

Get Guthrie and Colo contracts extended

 

Summer window

See the back of Smith, Lovenkrands, Rnager and Xisco

Sell Forster to Celtic

Give Ba and Krul new improved contracts

Sign Hoilett from Blackburn on a free

Sign the young centre half from Montpellier

Dont sell any of our stars

Loan out some of our kids to championship sides

Keep Perch but only play him in the defensive central midfield role as a sub. He does well there.

LOL, are people really discussing the possibility of -KEEPING- Perch? Get that nugget outta here, he can't play!

 

Yes, Verthongen might be what they define as "expensive" but obv. well worth money due to his versatility in defence and as a DMC.

This has all worked out fantastically for us thus far so I can't see your point? Sounds like FM logic to me. :whistle:

Not saying they've been ignorant, as long as some of the rumours are actually matching the reality. And it usually does somewhat, I guess.

 

WW: I'm satisfied with how things are going, not saying drop France, but we shouldn't be putting all our sticks in one bowl. altho that got a lil mixed up with getting Cisse from Germany.

 

It might as well just be the newspapers focus on France giving us an advantange, who knows. I don't really know anything else than the papers.

A few twittertwats were saying we've been linked to Angelo Ogbonna.

 

Probably nowt in it, but would be a good signing. 23 year old Italian centre back with Nigerian parents, capped for Italy recently despite playing in Serie B. Haven't seen much of him since they were relegated but he's highly rated and would know Santon from U21s.

 

Edit: Apparently Torino want shitloads for him, scratch that.
