Scoot Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 They're gagging to sell him, he'll go this window. That's what i have been saying for ages. They;re the only ones making noises about him trying to keep him in the shop window. You can tell they're getting desperate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 I've never really wanted him. Ditto. nowt but another Ricketts for me. Fuck him, hope he ends up staying daan sarf and ending up another Ashton as Cookie says. Getting angry a player who hasn't move despite the face we literally haven't bid for him.

Guest Outlaw Pete Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 They're gagging to sell him, he'll go this window. Yes, i think you're right. We should just go for it and buy him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Most boring saga ever (even more so because i don't want him) And i don't think we're after him either fwiw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noodles Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Don't think we'll bid. If Mitrovic performs today then we definitely won't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a classic Ashley standoff written all over it this like. Last hours of the transfer window with an 8m plus add ons offer. Don't want him at all personally fwiw Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Surprised at many people not wanting him tbh. Think at the right price he would be a cracking signing and give us much needed options. We shouldn't be going into the season with just the strikers we have now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We shouldn't be going into the season with just the strikers we have now. With us playing with just one striker i just can't see how we need him. We have Mitrovic and Cisse and Austin wouldn't give us more options, he would just give us more of the same. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sub 10m and not at the expense of other players we need then aye I'd take him, but we're likely to play one up most of the season and Cisse is considerably more 'proven' at PL level so what's the point if he'll not get much playing time? I think we'd be best starting the season with Cisse and Mitrogol as our options and Perez as third choice if required. Then spend any money elsewhere. But then when did it matter to us whether we need a player if there's a deal to be done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 IMO if Cisse stays (which IMO depends on wether we can find someone willing to pay enough for him or not) we have good options. Cisse, Mitrovic, Perez, Riviere, all different kinds of striker and the first 3 very good players. Having said that IF we can find a club for Cisse I do think he'll be off and so we'll need a replacement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie_once_removed Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Don't want him at the expense of Cisse. If he comes I see Cisse going, might have been different had Riviere not got injured, he could have been moved on instead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Bailey Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Agree with Teasy. We have varied options, 2 good and pretty proven performers, one who looks very promising and OK a piss poor Riviere. IF Cisse goes then we obviously need to replace, but for anywhere near 15m or even into double figures CA would not be value for me. Better to look elsewhere. I don't think Cisse will be off personally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I do want Austin but things have changed over the summer. We've seen the system McClaren wants to play and it's with only 1 up front. Our defence is still desperately shit and we have no wide players whilst we have two good players to play the lone striker. With a good owner it would be a bit of a no brainer but we have Ashley and therefore the remaining money should go on the priority positions. £15m at this stage for Austin would not change much since we'd still be leaking goals at an alarming rate.

Agree with most but the last sentence. Money isn't the issue with leaking goals now, it's that McLaren had decided to back Colo therefore meaning by default there is 'no need' for another CB. Whether he's done this as a manager or member of the board we'll never know but football wise it looks a fucking terrible decision especially when Palace would probably have taken Colo as well.

Mole_Toonfan Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 He's not needed anyway, we don't play two 9s upfront and we already have two for one position. It's a waste of time and i can think of at least 5 positions which are much more needed to be strengthened. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ads Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Personally, I hope QPR lose him for free in the summer. They were stupid enough to spunk ridiculous fees on average players and expect other clubs to do the same for their players. Clubs who might have been interested have rightly baulked at the asking price and gone elsewhere. Hopefully by the end of the window they end up desperately trying to hawk him out for £10-12m when it's too late. Edit: Or sunderland will go and buy him for £15m Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
