Sima Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Rather go in for Christie if we are after anyone from Derby. He's apparently out of contract as well. Malcolm Christie is still playing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Quick Google search brings up a Youtube video entitled Carles Alena - Barcelona - The next Iniesta. I've been expecting something like this from Rafa tbh, not singing someone as good as Inesta obviously but picking up an unknown from one of the bigger Spanish clubs and him turning out as good as a £30m player or whatever. Was hoping he'd nick that Korean at Barca on loan or something as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxfree Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 That Lawrence looks good tbh. Just looked him up on YT. Seems to have an absolutely clinical right foot. Would take. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Mangala again. Says they will let Iheanacho leave too: http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/newcastle-transfer-list-man-city-13103820 Why would they let Iheanacho leave? Sure they've got Aguero and Jesus, but Iheanacho has to be about as good third choice as you can possibly get? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 I don't know how good Reina is these days but id love to see his elbows in a toon keepers top. A proper character/leader in the dressing room too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odear Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Carvalho being pushed heavily by some random website via my onefootball app. I wouldn't get excited just yet. He's more than good enough to play for any of the top 4. The only thing is the top 6 clubs mostly all have very good players in that position. Therein lies our chance.. assuming Ashley would approve a fee like that, which would undoubtedly smash our transfer record. (which is still set by Michael Owen?)

Considering their splurges already i wouldn't be surprised if they buy another forward for no reason what so ever. Same goes for Chelsea and Batshauyi.

Guest Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Carles Alena linked from Barca B.... VI?! He's apparently the closest to Iniesta style wise that Barca have got on their books. That would soon change if he came here Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Carles Alena linked from Barca B.... VI?! Silky left foot, but I'm always a bit wary of players of his ilk that make it big in youth football, where they enjoy oozles of space. I highly rate Benítez's eye for midfielders though.

Mole_Toonfan Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Carvalho is one i could actually see tbh, he's another one who was hyped as a youth and while talented he's stagnated to the point the CL clubs are no longer interested. The exact type of profile we should be looking to pursue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeloEmre Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Reina £5m Mangala £20m Carvalho £30m Batshauyi £5m (loan fee) If we sell for £30m we would still have about £40m to strenghten the squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odear Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Would pass out in excitement if we somehow signed Carvalho and brought in quality like Iheanacho or Batshauyi Batshauyi looked like a clumsy oaf when he came on yesterday, i'd pass on him. Carvalho would be a coup. All the media coverage so far is most likely agents trying to sniff out a club who'll pay the asking price, we've always been a go to club for that sort of thing. I could see us paying over 20m+ for a player this summer.. but over 30? I doubt it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 You'd pass on Batshauyi which you're basing on him playing about 4 minutes at the end of a cup final when his team were losing and down to 10 men? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there's many a youtube video of him looking the business. And the result yesterday has nothing to do with my opinion.. he came on with limited time to try and rescue something for them, but instead could only bundle over Arsenal players or take up all the wrong positions in the few times he had the ball. Just suggests a lack of intelligence to me and for that reason i'd pass. Rafa knows best though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
