The College Dropout Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 I think if we sign a CB it needs to be one in the £15-20m bracket who is completely proven and clearly better than out top three. I like Maguire but not sure he's the man. We know who you mean Sakho from Liverpool? Perhaps not completely proven but looked excellent for Palace.

The College Dropout Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/newcastle-united-transfers-how-benitez-13030991 Says Rafa wants 7 to 10 new players. Looking to loan some of the new players to get the most value from his budget. said yesterday can see a few loans with obligations to buy the following summer when the TV money actually rolls in Wouldn't be against loans for Loftus Cheek and Ake like. Of course, there are disadvantages with loans, but Rafa might well be looking to the long term. Some of the better players may be reluctant to commit themselves long-term to a newly promoted side, and we can end up instead with a lot of signings on long-term contracts who won't be able to achieve more than just keeping us up. We then won't be able to afford to push on from that point, and will end up falling back. To an extent, that's what's happened before. A few loan signings can help us develop whilst still giving us some flexibility in the longer term. That may be Rafa's thinking. Loans with options to buy. Although with Terry leaving, Cahill 31 Chelsea shouldn't want to sell Ake. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK-421 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Interesting (if true) of players being 'offered' to us, presumably by their agents. Those players must surely be aware, and thus fairly keen to join us. Another advantage to having Rafa, and a general good feeling about the club again. Better to have players who want to join us for us to consider, than constantly chasing targets, being turned down, or failing to get anything 'over the line'.

Guest Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jay-rodriguez/profil/spieler/53360 Would be a huge upgrade on Gouffran. I'd take him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Toon Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Given that it's a surprisingly easy clickbait opportunity for the media, I wonder why Townsend hasn't been linked again yet? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 I wouldn't be surprised if it's just agents and Rafa has no interest in most of the linked players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 I wouldn't be surprised if it's just agents and Rafa has no interest in most of the linked players. It's almost like people have never experienced a transfer window before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Agree, right now, you can pretty much ignore most of the bollocks that's being printed. We are about a month away from things actually starting to happen, with the exception of Atsu of course, whose fee is on a time limit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Given that it's a surprisingly easy clickbait opportunity for the media, I wonder why Townsend hasn't been linked again yet? Because Palace want to keep him now It was only a possibility in January because there was probably a relegation clause in there. With them staying up he's probably quite happy to stay there anyway.
