Heard numerous rumours today regarding us bringing in the following players what do you guys think
1. John ruddy (norwich 4m)
2. Scott Sinclair ( man city 5 m)
3. John obi mikel ( Chelsea )
4. Matteo mussachio (Villarreal 6m)
5. Lucas digne (psg 9m)

Can't see ruddy happening as I don't think him and Watson get on, may be wrong but I'm sure I heard that somewhere


2.) 07 Jul 2014
Personally I can't see any of them happening especially mikel and ruddy.

Lucas Digne is supposed to be a class player with great potential but not sure he would leave psg to come to us without guaranteed first team slot. I can't believe that Korman won't have a few targets outside of linked Dutch players but so far I don't see marquee player. Taichung looks good but is he a big name??

Digne will not likely sign, but he would be garunteed first team, giving target more experience/competition, Sinclair is a risky one, no one really knows his full potential as he never gets game time which we could give him, if we were to sign him up then it would have to be for a lot less than £5million


5.) 07 Jul 2014
No to all of them

Re Scott sinclair, i'm pretty sure the only reason he continues to be linked with us is because his brother is coming through the academy currently (I'm sure I read that somewhere?). That said, I can't see him joining us as his wages are too high & his move to man city backfired & spent too long on the bench thus not gaining any experience etc.

Im getting so bored with all this lack of action that I don't care if Reed signs Bill and Ben the flower pot men so long as he signs someone. don't think Tadic is happening somehow think we can rely on Les to screw that up big time

Hang on in there Montecristo. Having to appoint a new manager meant we were always going to gain on other clubs but getting it right is what matters. By the time of the press conference things will look much rosier.
Does PSG have enough ambition for Louvren?

Just a quick question- actually what has mr reed screwed up? Lambert went to live out his dream and everyone wishes him well. Lallana has had one decent season and I'll hold my hands up I really rate him but mr reed has got decent money for him. Shaw 20 months ago was only just breaking in to first team he wants to go and we get over 30 mil for him, I have no idea how that isn't awesome business. Yes in another 6 years he might be worth more but well he wanted to leave and who knows in 6 years he might be worth a lot less. Mr reed continue the good work.

Well said Picky. We've got great money in for Shaw and Lallana to the point that other fans are calling us greedy. that's a first in my books.
That said it would be good to see some of that re-invested sooner rather then later. There are players out there getting snapped up which in turn shrinks the pot we can pick from.


11.) 08 Jul 2014
Regardless of who we bring in, players like chambers, ward prowse, cork, reeves may shine under koeman. Ward prowse especially. I don't think ward prowse was playing his best position. He played quality in a DM role for England u21. Let's remember both lallana and shaw came through the academy as well, so we could see others making the step up. The only positions I'm really worried about is cb and a striker.

Reed sold three key players without first signing replacements which frankly is stupid.First because it will push up the asking price of every player we go after in the transfer market, and secondly he capitulated to Lallana, set a precedent so every player wanting to leave is doing so by throwing toys out of his pram. Reed is naive , not a businessman, not qualified to deal with large business transactions, hence the lack of results so far. He may yet secure Tadic, and really needs to, as Everton are sniffing, this deal should have been wrapped up ages ago. Which makes me nervous apart from annoyed.

@montecristo: what are you even taking about?! The transfer window has been open for a week! Reed sold 3 players in that time who didn't want to be here and were upsetting other members of the squad. There is no rush to buy players either, transfers take time, calm down.

As already said, Lambert left to fulfil his dream, nobody would deny him that. Shaw, although a very talented player has been sold for a lot more than he's worth, plus his wages were probably quadrupled; it takes more than will power to say 'no' to £100,000 per week. Lastly Lallana, a captain who didn't want to play for the club, a man becoming more self involved as time went on and a man who decided to leave at the worst time when he should be setting an example. Lallana also is not worth what he was sold for. Reed has done all he can, the best with what he has and he'll continue to do so; he got close to 60 million for two players who didn't want to be here, two players not worth that amount - he got more for Lallana and Shaw than AC Milan got for Ibrahimović & Thisgo Silva.

Stop doubting people, it does no one any good. Support the team, that's why we're here.
