Transfer Rumours The 2015 Summer Transfer Window Thread

It is also a sign of lack of imagination/ability in a manager when they can't make that player work. Hate to say this but Wenger was excellent at seeing how a player can work in a certain position. One of the best examples of that is Ray Parlour. Ok, he didn't sign him, Parlour was already there, yet Wenger adapted what Parlour dos, where he stood on the pitch and even told his team mates to only pass to him in a certain way.

By the way you're not talking complete ****; you should drink and post more often

 

Interested in Adama Traore apparently.

 

Good news

 

I read that as "Koeman close to being on the bench". I know Toby will be hard to replace Ron, but we need you in the dugout mate.

 

Matty is doing a good job of not making us miss Ryan, but I sure will be pleased to have him back.

 

Has it all Guan quiet over there?

 

A great example from before the premier league were the teams of Brian Clough at Nottingham Forest - Gary Birtles et al. Went away from a system which suited and looked nothing like the players they were again.

 

He was useful for me on Fifa, I took him on loan at MK Dons where he linked up well with Hesketh.

Could the virtual and real world get blurred?

 

You really need to stop following that Twitter account.

 

Why?

 

Apparently we have failed with a £5m bid for Nicolass Lombaerts of Zenit St Petersburg........can't say I knew much about him.

 

Most of their stuff is a day or more late. Also most of the time don't credit where they get the info from.

 

Osvaldo, gets released for being a dick head that no one wants. Now looking like joining Porto.

Me Neither....reached for Google and Belgian international centre back, 30 years old. Has been with Zenit since 2007 and part of the side which won the Uefa cup. Looks like a mainstay of their defence. Was linked with Sunderland earlier in the summer.

 

All I can see is this from some random Beligium guy. Who may be a reporter.

 

I think he was set to join Sunderland but failed their medical.

 

Yep he was, but he denies it. No one else is reporting we are interested(yet). Oh and The Sun, but that isn't worth much.

 

He looked very dodgy against Wales recently. I'd prefer to look elsewhere.

 

Based on one game? I'm not saying we should sign him but surely you can't judge a player based on one game?

 

Don't know why we bother with scouts and the black box when one fan watching a 3 min video clip knows soooooooooo much better. Mmmm....I wonder if the black box is actually a Saints fan who just sits there going no...yes...maybe.
