Summer Transfer Window

[LukasTheGreat]

Haven't seen much of this Herrera bloke, how good is he? We're going to be spending around £32m on him so he must go alright.

Finally looks like we're signing a midfielder, hopefully Shaw follows and then a CB.

Would be good to see Taggart & Davidson at Fulham.

Hopefully go straight back up so they get a go in the prem.

Davidson is shit though, was responsible for so many of Australia's goals at the WC.

Was good going forward, still young so hopefully with some defensive work can become a good player.

 

[pantskyle]

He is, luckily they play different positions

Correct however supercats was alluding to the idea that we didn't sign a good one last year (season) when we did.

cant see why suarez would want to leave now?

 

[BILC]

Rio Ferdinand to QPR apparently done.

Not sure about it, apparently the wages aren't too bad, certainly an upgrade on what we have but whether it's worth it....suppose we'll find out.

Good on the ball but probably relies on an extra yard of pace to be at the top of his game, which he probably doesn't have nowadays. Injury prone too.

 

[Latro]

If Rio is an upgrade how bad are your current centrebacks?

Quite bad.

Great news about Taggart. Know a few guys who went to school with him, they reckon Adam loves Adam. Not that that is a bad thing

He's the new David Carney.

Half of Suarez' family lives near Barcelona. Makes more sense than Real. Bit harder telling Barca to piss off than it is telling Arsenal to piss off. Best BR can do is adopt the "1 more season approach" that bacon face used with the trans at united. Agree to sell Suarez after he gives us one season in Europe.

Hopefully he finds Fulham to be more his level than the game vs. Spain last night. I can't recall ever seeing a player so totally out of his depth as Taggart was in the 45 minutes he spent on the pitch last night.

Didnt see the game last night. However didnt think he'd be up to it anyway. Am very pleased he's playing in the Championship though.

great post
neymar messi suarez would be awesome

 

[Cooldude]

Haven't there been rumours of Reus to Barca? How true is that? Would understand why they seem willing to sell Sanchez

 

[SM]

Great move for Taggart. Was talking to Cooksen and Cruyff14 pre-podcast about him (and no Cruyff, he's not at Toon ). Stoked to see Aussie talent being recognised.

Can Leckie's new div 2 club sell him without him ever playing a game there for a profit?

I think if there's a release clause someone can just pay whatever that is and they can make a quick profit?

Don't quote me though.

I guess he isn't registered to them in the Bundesliga 2 yet anyway

 

[Bardo State]

Im gonna go against the grain here and say Davidson will thrive at Fulham while Taggart will likely flounder. Not sure he's suited to the Championship.

Tend to agree, the Championship is more suited to someone playing as a target man.

It's not like Barcelona is 3000kms away from Madrid. its 600 kms. Surely Madrid would just fly him to see his family.
