Transfer discussion thread

TBH it seems like a great move for Tammy. Will get to play and develop.

Leaves us with only 2 strikers in the squad which is a bit thin.

Abraham loaned to Villa.
Why they sign new contracts just to repeatedly be loan fodder I'll never know.

It's a balancing act. Two, three even four loans can still be a positive thing. Look at Kane.

I'd be pretty wary though, clubs will sign you more to protect your resale value rather than develop you into a first team player. In that case I'd be looking for a new home.

Kane was loaned out til he was 20. Abraham will turn 21 this season. Not saying it's a bad thing, but he's going back down to the championship.

Great get for Lyon

Wonder if this helps Rangers in the league?

It may close the gap but Celtic's strike force should still be too strong

and he got very lucky. Underwhelmed on loan and didn’t get a look in during Redknapp. What happens if we don’t sack him in 2012??
He had an U21 coach in Sherwood who believed in him and when AVB got axed he got his chance. Even then he wasn’t first choice under Pochettino straight away.

This to me feels different.

Security. They sign a new deal so they know they still have a 'future' at their parent club, and if they go well it protects the parent club from the loan club luring the player away on the cheap.

From the players point of view it reassures them that they have long term security and aren't on the verge of being cut from a PL club and ending up in the wilderness.

This was awesome news. Kasper will always be one of my favourite foxes.

Great news for you guys. Only Arsenal from the top 6 are needing a new keeper in the PL. If they want him you'll get 50m + easily in today's market.

Arsenal spent £22m on Leno this summer who has so far sat on the bench.

I'd honestly prefer to keep him. While the money would be nice, Kasper has been our man for a number of years. Love him as much as I've loved any player over the years.

 

[Cruyff14]

Wouldn't want him anyway to be honest.

Yeah you say that but Schmeichel > Cech

Not a big enough difference to warrant paying what it would cost you but I still have him ahead.

 

[Cruyff14]

Agree.

Who do you reckon Emery will replace Cech with?

Should have sold him to us on deadline day!

I thought he was a free transfer?

Would be a dumb move to go to a club with the best CF in the league imo, not that i think he was even interested.

Villa seems a great move for him, hope he makes the most of it.

He'd play cup football and be on a PL bench. Not really a step up from his Swansea move but would be a level above going back down to the championship. I think if the clubs were on talking terms his people would have advised him to take the deal but it never would have got close to being accepted

To me hes better off going somewhere hes a chance to play week in week out, not a couple of cup games.

I dont see the championship as a bad thing for him this season as hes only 20 and needs as many games as he can get.
