Summer Transfer Thread 2012

[llego]

 

Altintop is 29 isn't he?

 

Hes being sarcastic, I hope. Dont see why, we saw where overpaying for youngsters got us. At 2m depending on wages he could be a great replacement for Kuyt/Maxi, Ive always been impressed by him. Underrated player.

[Marjac]

was absolutely gash for Hull and has been seemingly everywhere but AZ in a league known for shit strikers getting a bucketload

 

Definately a wild card, but he seems to have picked up some form this last season, he is still young, got some speed and physique, and would probably command a small transfer fee and low wages. I think it could be a worthwhile risk if he could be bought in the region of 3-4 million£.

Well, we saw what overpaying for the wrong young talent gets us.

Apparently we are interested in Altintop from Real Madrid and Krasic from Juventus at 2 mill and 10 mill respectively. Good value both of those.

 

Unless Krasic is on paltry wages 10 million is not very good value for him, in my opinion. Won't track back, according to his current manager, and it's not like he's Ronaldo going forward to justify it.

 

Now Altintop for 2 million? That actually is a pretty good value, if he'd be happy to sit on the bench. Cover for CM and fullback? An Aurelio replacement, perhaps. I don't think that would be the worst thing in the world, especially with only Enrique and young Robinson at LB.

[Vivaldo]

I am sick of square pegs in round holes and would much prefer if we just bought a right winger to play on the right wing. Simples. Fulham appear as though they are about to land quite a coup - Luciano Narsingh and Oussama Assaidi from Heerenveen for a combined £10m.

 

Narsingh has been the top provider of assists in the Eredivisie for the past two seasons and is the main reason Bas Dost has been banging in goals so regularly. He has good acceleration over the first few yards, great balance which allows him to wriggle away from players by changing direction quickly but most of all he is fantastic at picking out players in the box. He has been called up to the provisional Dutch squad for Euro 2012 and looks great value at that price particularly as he is only 21. Exactly the type of player we should be taking a chance on. Imagine a winger who took on full backs and provided an excellent delivery.

 

Oussama Assaidi is very skillful too and is a full international for Morocco - great bit of business by Jol if he pulls it off.

This guy does look good, other than what you said, this chap was timing his runs very well and more importantly make intelligent runs off the opposition line. Something that would be very advantageous in the Premier league!

On your last bit , seen a lot of people saying about getting a LB in .... i dont see any point in that at all , complete waste of money if we go spending on a LB.

 

Im sure Enrique will pick up his form again next season ..... even for whatever reason he isnt playing we should just play Johnson there with Kelly at RB like we have done at times .. even Agger if really stretched but obviously would rather him stay in the middle ........... thats not even including Robinson so we are fine there.

[Shogun]

Lucas Biglia too.

Matias Suarez.

 

Is he the Atletico Madrid one? Was class in the final.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Plays for Anderlecht. I think he's good. Been looking at him for quite a while

 

MatÃ*as Suárez - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

I linked to him first in this thread:

[George Costanza]

nah plays for Anderlecht I think. Had one good season so we'll probably buy him

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

One good season! I'd say that from 2009, 15, 10 and now 19 goals (plus 15, 7 and 17 assists), is pretty good going.

[MLB]

Is it an open secret that Hazard has signed for City?

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

If we got Suarez, it'd be like having two Suarezesezes up front.

Not saying you're wrong about his ability, but this is Belgium we're talking about here...

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

If we're classing any of the seasons as good ones, we surely have to judge them all?

[Hand Shandy]

I was talking more about the standard of the league as a whole.

 

Didn't Lukaku score a shitload there? Hardly set the world alight at Chelsea, has he?

 

Belgium - a shit Holland.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Take your point. 13 goals and 8 assists in Europe, too. Want him. Let me have him. Come on. Please.

[Hand Shandy]

Now the 13 goals and 8 assists in Europe is a bit more encouraging...

 

However, as I say, I know nothing about him and was just passing comment on the risks of signing players that have great goalscoring records in shit leagues.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

It can be my birthday and christmas present in one.

 

I do take your point though, it's a shit league. I'd not buy him on his goals alone. For a wide man, or at least a striker that comes in from the wide, he is quite something. Time to bust the youtubes out.

Spot on. Posted similar yesterday.

We are lucky to have Kelly who can play anywhere across the back.

No need to spend a bean on the de-fence.

31 goals in 107 apps in the Belgian league is pretty average going.

 

Jovanovic (yep remember him) had a much better record at Standard Liege prior to us signing him.

 

I'm not saying he's a bad player & won't be potentially a good signing but his record previous to this season (19 goals & 17 assists is very decent) is anything to shout about.

Doesn't understand how 19 and 17 is good but 15 and 15 isn't much to shout about, mate?

 

I mean, we get this line of thinking about Holland, too. You rarely here 'yeah, but Ruud van Nistelrooy scored in Holland'. Nobody really mentions Robben, or Kluivert, or Stam, or Bergkamp, or any of the many players who made it. It's always 'well, Dirk Kuyt' or 'Means nothing because Kalou...'. People said that about the Suarez signing too. He's doing ok. Then there's all the Carroll goals in this league.

 

We just have to look at their talent, I guess. I actually think I'd prefer him to Hazard. I think he'll do better here.
