Summer Transfer Thread 2012

[Phoenix]

Looks like Kagawa is going to the Mancs for £7million. Just shows up the ridiculous sums we paid for average players.

That's an absurd amount to sell for. Commercially he'd be worth ten times that if he did well at United.

Last year of his contract and wants to the PL.

[aRdja]

Need someone who plays wide with pace and ability. Anyone. Sick of watching the fraud that Downing is.

[Il Fenomeno]

Should we look at Vorm in the summer? Or any other keeper to replace Reina?

 

Too many costly mistakes this season.

[Ne Moe Imya]

We have needed a wide player with pace and ability for at least 10 years. I'd love to see that addressed this summer, but don't really expect it.

[Shreddy]

Its seem like its every year a big summer for us ...........

[kimmern]

this summers big signing: clint dempsey for 25million

[usernameunknown]

Vorm is nowhere near Reina. Flavour of the month to replace Pepe Reina would be a horrific move. He does need to wake up though, the past can only get you so much credit.

[Phoenix]

Reina still one of the best keepers in the league. He knows himself he hasnt doen well this season and he isnt one to hide.

 

We need a new central midfield to include recovering lucas, a winger and a striker.

Sterling has shown tentative signs of seering pace and some ability, as well as desire, maybe he'll get his chance...

[xerxes]

Who is scouting the players and who is going to do the deals?

Crazy aint it , thats why ild love to see us to get Redmond in , i know hes only 17/18 but we so obviously need skillful wingers with pace and i honestly believe he will turn out to be a top player , him along with Sterling and another experienced winger and we would be sorted for the long term.

 

Look at the Mancs and they've had class wingers coming out of their ears forever and they win everything , look how good Spurs look with Bale and Lennon , Chelsea with Duff and Robben............... its been staring us in the face for years but weve never addressed it properly......

Saw Redmond against Blackpool. He played just behind Marlon King. I didn't think he was all that to be honest. Tom Ince from that game alone looked a better prospect.

[The Golden Eel]

Realistic signings that we should go for are:

 

Gabriel Agbonlahor of Villa (winger/striker)

Karl Henry of Wolves (defensive midfielder)

Steven Hunt of Wolves (winger)

David Dunn of Blackburn (attacking midfielder)

Jay Bothroyd of QPR (striker)

 

Need to move soon though before Allardyce has a free rein to mop up all this quality.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

IS anyone biting on your stuff?

[The Golden Eel]

"Biting on my stuff"?

 

Not sure what the question is.

Always liked that left back Paul Konchesky at Leicester myself. International class players don't often become available at the sort of price we could get him for. A few million plus Sterling and Suso should do it.

[aRdja]

United are signing Kagawa

Atsenal are signing M'Vila

Hazard is going to Chelsea/Man City

We are signing Elm

 

 

Stuff nightmares are made of..

[Whelan]

Kagawa has denied this, Hazard won't go to Chelsea, they have signed Marin. M'Villa has been going to Arsenal for the past two years.

 

I know nothing of Elm, more concerned with adding pace and creativity out wide.

Vorm is far superior to the current Reina. He's not bloated on wine and paella either. I don't think there's a less agile keeper in the league than Reina and that includes Paul Robinson.

 

People are calling on replacing the likes of Adam and Carroll, well, Reina has been at least as poor as them. He's a liability.

Football first, with Maneesh, more like.

He has been poor but the facts still say we had one of the best goals against records and we didn't score a lot of goals.

 

We need to score more goals.

[WaltonRed]

Defence is ok, we need to concentrate on the front players

 

the maxi and kuyt wages teamed with hopefully dough from FSG will see us get some top class plvyers in
