John P Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 I would quite like to see us go for Nathaniel Chalobah, but Chelsea will undoubtedly want daft money for him. For the money it would cost to get Chalobah, it would probably be worth sticking with Hayden and hoping he fulfils his potential. Spend the £25m elsewhere.

Would prefer Baker from Chelsea but he'd probably cost a bomb too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodson Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Krychowiak has been sitting on the bench for PSG an entire season and now they are also looking to sign Fabinho. We should go for him, class player for Sevilla. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seymour Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Realistic? Would be a great signing I feel he will have better offers though tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuce Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 City will throw out 30mil just to stash him on their bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_69 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Realistic? Would be my number one target for this window, I think we should go all out. £12m is a great price for Hernandez, especially with all the ridiculous money being thrown about Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leek Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Would be someone I can imagine Benitez would like the look of aswell, I'd certainly be happy if he signed him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altamullan Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Still hoping for a couple of pleasant surprise signings, who stretch the meaning of the word 'realistic'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astroblack Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Liverpool were constructed for Torres to score. Benitez could build our team around him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 £12m for Hernandez and £20-25m for Iheanacho are both absolutely amazing value like. Should be in for one, or both really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Liverpool were constructed for Torres to score. Benitez could build our team around him. A hell of a lot easier to build a Benitez side around a striker with mobility, mind. Chalk and cheese, really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Some of these available players come and go and you really wonder why the heck we're not in for them. Not saying I disagree with Rafas targets, it's just a bit surprising. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying I disagree with Rafas targets, it's just a bit surprising. In the end of the day this clubs own fans are waiting (and believing) for the club to implode any minute now, you think potential players think differently? We're interested in players who we've got a chance with, some won't touch us with a barge pole even if the fee seems reasonable as a proposition to them we just don't float their boat. It'll take a while to shake the image we've been tarred with, though it's never permenant as footballers has relatively short memories. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 £12m for Hernandez and £20-25m for Iheanacho are both absolutely amazing value like. Should be in for one, or both really. Should all over both of them ffs. 45M would get the pair of them I reckon. Just 10 million more than what was paid for Andy Carroll. And Michael Keene Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_69 Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 I don't know much about any of these players but it sounds like a list of exactly what we need and at decent prices.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 I haven't seen Hernandez play for years, but with less than 1 in 2 goals in Germany I would be tempted to just back Gayle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_69 Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 I haven't seen Hernandez play for years, but with less than 1 in 2 goals in Germany I would be tempted to just back Gayle. Considering our backup options are Mitro, Riviere, Armstrong and possibly Perez, I'd make Hernandez the absolute priority. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

triggs Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 He got dropped at Leverkusen towards the end of the season. Still would been a good signing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Striker is going to be difficult if we want someone who's reliably better than Gayle as a 'build the team around' type signing. As 'another option' Hernandez is probably about right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 I haven't seen Hernandez play for years, but with less than 1 in 2 goals in Germany I would be tempted to just back Gayle. Hes scored 28 in 54 over the last two seasons according to Soccerway, thats a goo return like. Just over a goal every 2 games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Sam Larsson anyone? Know we've got plenty of Swedes on here and he seems certain to leave Heerenveen this summer (contract up in June). He's been a huge contributor in terms of goals/assists and is a right-footed left-winger, loves a dribble. Predominantly being linked with Fiorentina at the moment.

As 'another option' Hernandez is probably about right. That isn't realistic though, he's not coming here as " another option " for that and many other reasons we won't be interested in him. I have said this before but the striker we do buy won't be like Gayle thus ruling out the likes of Hernandez. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
