BottledDog Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Feel a bit sorry for Pardew as the board do not seem to be backing him but yet again he will have to be the one to front up to the criticism and try and deflect any flak away from Ashley and Llambias. And all that talk of having a Plan B, C etc if they can't land their first choice seems to be rather hollow now. I hope he stops this talk of challenging for the Top 4 as unless they are misleading everyone and there are signings lined up, I just don't see how we can repeat what we did last year. Spent 9 million on a striker in january. Closer to £11m at the current exchange rate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite buying, Tiote, Cabaye, Anita, Cisse, Ba and renewing Colo's contract which was a massive as they broke their own rules to do it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I know it's a long way away but if they are keeping their powder dry for january again, I wouldn't blame them. The transfer of Cisse was a massive success IMO, they may well have been encouraged by that. I know people are getting frustrated at this window but we know the way they work by now, it has to be at the right price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use these lads for transfer fees and they tend to start with the figure in Euros. http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/premier-league/transferuebersicht/wettbewerb_GB1.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mosstef Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Posted this in the 'Other clubs transfers' but could might as well be posted in this thread: Ajax have just confirmed that an unnamed club have had a bid for Sulejmani accepted. Could it be us? Weren't we reported interested in him a couple of windows back? A striker who can play wide, he's 23 years old and in the last year of his contract. Sounds like a classic Ashley signing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Don't ever see Ajax play but his goalscoring record is pretty poor, especially for that league. Is he technically gifted, fast, mainly a link-up player? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDT Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 He gets just under 1 in 3 for Ajax and quite a few of his appearances have came off the bench, he's decent but very inconsistent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
