Happy Face 29 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 1. fits in well with Douglas not being available until the end of August . Disclaimer: I am not ITK. Any predictions I make that align with transfer rumors is purely coincidental and should not be taken as confirmation of those rumors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggio 0 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Ba will leave after a club meets his buy out. We will sign 3 players that walk into the first team. We sign at least 3 young lads to beef up the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock Manson 0 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 All of the current first team will stay, bar Guthrie who will go to Southampton. Ba's clause will be matched by several clubs but he'll sign a clauseless new contract. The fringers to move on. We'll sign Douglas in August, Amalfitano will come in and we'll also sign Pieters.

jaythesouthernmag 0 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Silly money offers will be accepted for whoever they for, I'm talking £20-30m. Whoever is sold will be replaced within the guidelines of the clubs transfer policy, the same policy that has us in 4th with four games left. Tiote and Krul may well be prime targets but the form of many of our players will rightly attract attention. I think champions league will encourage those that may have their heads turned want to stay. Ashley is renowned for paying big bonuses, champions league could mean a fortune for our players if their pay is performance related which would be another reason to stay, the team spirit in the club isn't to be discounted either as a reason players want to stay. I hope we only sell players who can be replaced with better ones that will improve both the first 11 and the bench but in reality we all know every player has a price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 10857 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 We will retain the services of; Krul, Colo, S.Taylor, Santon, HBA, Tiote, Cabaye, Jonas, Cisse from the first team. I think Ashley will look at these players as the clubs crown jewels. The only way we'd sell is if we received a staggering fee a la Carroll. Simpson & Guthrie will either sign on the dotted line or be sold for a moderate fee We'll pick up some young hungry squad players any crown jewels we lose will be replaced by someone scouted by G.Carr and his band of merry men. I think Ba will stay, but I'm willing to admit that's as much hope as it is head. Shola Ameobi will sign a new 4 year deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin S. Assilleekunt 1 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Pardew will die tragically in an auto-erotic asphyxiation accident in Gutierrez's bedroom cupboard, where he was watching Jonas' wife getting changed. Ameobi will step up and become player/manager, signing a new 15 year contract. He will sell HBA, Tiote, Cabaye, Ba, and Cisse for between £20-30 million each, and the rest of the squad, except for his brother, for lower fees. He will rebuild the squad using only his relatives, and use the £130 million generated in transfer fees to buy hats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nortoon 0 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 (edited) I predict some bigwig will pay 30-40m for Cisse, he is that good and im terrified of losing him. If we do let a first teamer or 2 go for big money I expect we will spend more than otherwise, but we will not spend all of it, or close to. We will sign a couple of upgrades on the first team, but wont go nuts. At least 1 defender. At the end of the day I dont think the club is in any rush, and if the "right deals" arent there they wont go nuts. But if they are they could spend a fair amount. I hope and think we will get Hoilett, and one of Mbiwa/Douglas. I think whatever happens the squad will get stronger before next season is over.

Lake Bells tits 1 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 At the start of 12/13 I'd guess.... Coloccini/ S Taylor will be our first choice centre backs. Danny Simpson will be our first choice RB. Sports Direct will be the stadium sponsor. LM will not be happy with what has been spent. If this is the case then I`ll be very unhappy as well tbh. Steven Taylor has proven time and time again he is too injury-prone to be a bonafide first choice, and if Simpson is still first choice then I can see another season of "protecting the right back". I think we will upgrade on simpson in summer and get another CB in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeazesMag 0 Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 incidentally, do people think that Alan Pardew could be in the running for the England job, which would be a blow to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 13867 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Pardew said on Talksport that he can't see any job taking him away from us atm. The England job isn't worth having if you want to improve your career anyway IMO, the current crop are almost impossible to manage as a collective.

The 5 or 6 million a year ensures very few, is any, would turn it down. Wasnt Pardew meant to be on 500k? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends if he's motivated by the cash. It's a hard offer to turn down but just look at the last 10 years or so of England management. We took Capello, one of the best managers of this generation, and basically turned him into a joke because the media overrate us to a daft degree. Pardew's a young manager, will have a growing reputation if he continues this sort of work and the England job fucks managers over tbh. Think he's astute enough to knock it back.

Andrew 4748 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 the england job is like the chelsea one at the moment, toxic due to player power and the media once terry/lampard/gerrard/ferdinand go someone new might get a chance to do something decent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 4725 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Thing is most football managers know they have a very limited time at a club and their careers can go tits up at any moment. The opportunity to bank 20 Million plus and be set up for life .... Tough one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lake Bells tits 1 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 a year as england coach and ur set for life though, financially...dont underestimate that in terms of how easy/hard it would be to reject an offer.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronic the Drug Wasp 6 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 If offered I think Pardew would be sensible to leave it to someone else (probably Redknapp) to try pick the bones out of the likes of Terry, Cole, Lampard, Gerrard and while it's [invevitably] going proper tits-up and the likes of them are retiring from international football, he could have a great couple more years with us, then take it starting with a new crop of players. That would be my plan if I was him. Anyway... before January I would have said that this summer will see anyone we have of value having any reasonable bids gleefully accepted, with cheaper alternatives coming in. But I do wonder now whether whatever drove Ashley to buy us to begin with has been rekindled. January suggests it might have. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew 4748 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 the thing is, you can see wanting to work with the likes of beckham, shearer, neville, scholes etc the previous top players for the country would anyone WANT to manage the pack of cunts around now?

Monkeys Fist 42444 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 So, let's say Pardew took the job. Who would we replace him with, that could work under the same conditions and get the same/better results? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
