Selling our most creative player is insanity. To a relegation rival is suicide 

 

What if he wants to go.

A good time to sell him as all his assists and goals will have gone a long way to keep us us. 

happy new year

Spot on Rafa said last week he wanted new signings as early as possible. The latest date being the 20th but ideally by the 15th to have them in. The clocknis ticking 

[Andrew 4761]

I'm not saying you're wrong that we need people in but its 10am on the first working day of the year, chill out.

[trooper 940]

we're now placed 13th the gambler will be thinking another win & we'll be ok now whats the least i can get away with giving Rafa.

That's always what hes thinking, position doesn't come into it.

 

There's nothing to be done but wait. Deep breaths. It'll be ok.

[trooper 940]

I admire your optimism mate but we'll all know how much of a cnut Ashkey is pinch a penny here steal a penny there. I dont fancy 3 or 4 Joselu's this window

I heard when Ashley heard that Kenedy was driving up to sign a lucrative loan deal he tried to get Lee Harvey Oswald over

[Tdansmith 3259]

[wykikitoon 20156]

Apparently Colback and sterry have been told they can leave. 

[ewerk 30620]

Must have come as a real shock to the Ginger Pirlo.

[wykikitoon 20156]

[zerosum 234]

a proven goal scorer, a solid midfielder with an eye for a pass and maybe kennedy should see us ok for this season imo. But in summer the team needs far far more..

[Dr Gloom 21924]

we need a new striker, a number 10, new full backs, a new keeper, maybe a new winger or two. all for a £20m net profit

unless this takeover goes through we're getting fuck all in bar a loan or two

 

If one of those loans is Daniel Sturridge we might just make it by the skin of our teeth.

[David Kelly 1245]

Apparently they still want someone in before they'll let Kennedy go so there's fuck all we can do to speed things up.  I'd rather we went for that Belgian striker from them who's name I'm not going to even try to spell.  They've apparently said he can go out on loan.  Not sure why they wouldn't want someone else in before they let him go too like.

[trooper 940]

It looks like Rafa's not got a great deal of money to spend...

Apparently we've made an approach for Kiko Casilla Real Madrids number 2 keeper who they boughtvfor £5 million 2 years ago 

Also...

Benitez has lodged loan offers for Leicester’s Islam Slimani and Liverpool’s Danny Ings.’

Reading between the lines Ashley's given Rafa a very small budget what do you think lads ?

Batshuayi.

 

Kenedy so far has played 3 games this season, all in the league cup. "we need someone in" my arse
