Summer Transfer Thread 2015

I wonder what the strategy will be this summer?

 

all the so called premiership proven signings have either failed massively thus far (Lovren, Balotelli, Lambert) or the jury remains well and truly out on them (Lallana)

 

while most of those brought in from foreign lands (Moreno, Can, Markovic) are really starting to gel and show their worth

Well, out and out strikers are a dying breed. And Pedro is not exactly an attacking mid, the creative type like Cout or Lallana. More of a Sterling type, can score and run a lot. We missed on Schurrle as well, for 22M we should be in for him, if he wanted to come. Even if he's not a striker he's quality and better to have than Lambert/Balotelli/Borini or any average striker. It was a chance, Chelski were looking to sale, so the price was decent as well.

Gk, if that Austrailian keeper is as good as he sounds bring him in as number 2 and let him and mig fight it out for number one spot.

 

Cb, sign Micah Richards who is on a free in the summer as a replacement for kolo and maybe another top one if we get rid of Lovren although we could use illori next season.

 

Rb, Clyne if attainable but should only be got when main targets are signed.

 

Dm, Song because he is a good player, still young and 11-12m is a steal. Schneiderlin who should be our main summer target, can play as a cm aswell and would go a long way to solving our issues in the centre.If he ends up at arsenal the team we are closest to who are rivals for positions I will be very pissed considering he is a lfc fan, attainable and perfect for us.Khedira should also be offered a contract and got over song if we could get.

 

Am, Milner on a free who can cover a few positions.

 

St, Benzema or Higuain, both will be attainable in the summer with Rafa leaving Napoli and Benzemas place always under threat, Madrid were not happy with him going Sky diving recently and will be open to selling imo.Ings as third or fourth choice.

 

Out, Toure, Lucas, Johnson is we can sign a top rb, Lovren if we get a decent amount back, Borini, Lambert, Balotelli unless he improves, Aspas and maybe some of the youngsters on loan or they join the squad.

Do you think chelsea would have sold us shurle for £22m? They wanted £28m from the shite for lukaku after all.
