PaddockLad 14823 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 (edited) Bent, nailed on, Pards wants "some English", signing at half eight on 31st August. Some French children to keep Carr happy. A part time window cleaner from Gala Fairydean will be Kinnerar's contribution. Edited June 27, 2013 by PaddockLad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeordieMark 0 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Yeah his agent has said "He will go to Swansea" its on SkySports website. Whether it is his actual agent, who knows. Price quoted is £10.2m.  Can't say I have seen alot of him, but I did see Vitesse play in 2011/12 on ESPN, and he scored twice. That is as far as my experience of him goes.  Be interesting to see if he joins the list of van Nistelrooy and Huntelaar or becomes another player who was prolific in Holland but struggled to hit the goal trail elsewhere such as Kuyt, Kezman.

trophyshy 6441 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Kinnear would call him Boner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeordieMark 0 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 According to that GetFootballNews France account on Twitter, who can be reliable, we are going to bid 29m Euros for Kurt Zouma and Pierre Emerick Aubameyang. 13m and 16m respectively. Â I think its just too good to be true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 14823 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Kurt Zouma is the best name for a footballer ever  19 year old centre half, obviously rated by Carr, which is a good enough recommendation for me.  Chelsea want him too.

Â I think its just too good to be true. Would be some deal if we got them two, like you say though can't see it happening. If the above doesn't happen and Bony goes to Swansea I'll be gutted tbh, worrying that teams like Norwich, Swansea and Cardiff are making some canny signings while we don't seem to be doing much (again unless what Mark here is saying has any legs).

trophyshy 6441 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Stranger things have happened. Such as Joe Kinnear being our DOF, for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12495 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Would be worth signing Pierre Emerick Aubameyang just to hear Kinnear try and pronounce his name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 6057 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 If Bony is £10mil and Swansea are the only team interested then something is up with him. His scoring record is similar to Alvez/Kezman's before we point to that as proof he will succeed in England Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aimaad22 3563 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 (edited) the cynical shite in me says "wise up we're never signing anyone for a double figure number, let alone two lads for 15-16m a piece" then when i dare to think it could be true i instantly start thinking "well that means cabaye is heading off to monaco for 20m+ i guess" Â Yup same here. We cant be blamed though, everytime you think the club has started to move in the right direction we take two steps backwards.

The most baffling this is working out whether Ashley does it purposefully or whether he honestly hasn't got a clue what he is fucking doing.

StellarStripes 0 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 (edited) The most baffling this is working out whether Ashley does it purposefully or whether he honestly hasn't got a clue what he is fucking doing.I'm holding judgement on this until the start of the season. Kinnear could bring something to the table and we have not lost anyone yet. So long as we get the players in that we need and give them a good two weeks together before the first day of the season.  I'm not seeing anything to worry about yet.  I am expecting some positive transfer dealings to happen in the next week.  Harper, Simpson, Amalfitano and Abeid out.  I'd be hoping we get good clubs to aid the development of the youngins. Dummett, Newton, Tavernier, Richardson, Inman, Bigi, Vuckic, Sameobi and Campbell could all get spots in starting 11's in the lower leagues. I reckon we will see a few added to the development squad too. Zemen confirmed next week is a start.  The big business needs addressing too though. A pacey young wide player, another big hitter to help Cisse and possibly someone to create from the middle. Anita, Tiote, Sissoko and Cabaye with an addition would be strong. As would the wings. Gutierrez, Ben Arfa, Marveaux, Gouffran and Tom Ince maybe?  Im looking forward to seeing it all pan out.

scoobos 297 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 We have lost players, we've just released a handful. I know most of them aren't quite good enough, but I'm especially uncomfortable about Simpson going to QPR after being released. We've already got a threadbare squad, as Keegan says I feel the strategy needs to be to replace and then sell. Having 2 defenders for 1 position is not enough, especially when we are asking them to be defensive wingers (more chance of hamstrings / injuries etc).

David Kelly 1117 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 How can we expect to keep more than two players for one position happy though? Even clubs playing in Europe would struggle with that one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobos 297 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 I'm not sure David, I'd say the 3rd choice is reserve player. Â My worry here is , all its going to take is a red card and an injury and you're screwed. Â Most clubs have more than 3 players for these positions don't they? And 3 strikers at least also. Â I reckon we have less cover than any other team in the premiership and it shows. We've got to have the smallest squad now , but I'm no statto so I'm not 100%.
