sphericalfox Posted 20 June 2014 Posted 20 June 2014 No point buying prospects this year. If we spend money we need to spend it on proven premiership players ideally. That's easier said then do however. Who said buy?
ronnup Posted 20 June 2014 Posted 20 June 2014 Who said buy? Fair enough. I'd still rather we were looking at established players if we're strengthening. We've got talented youth in a lot of areas.
sphericalfox Posted 20 June 2014 Posted 20 June 2014 Fair enough. I'd still rather we were looking at established players if we're strengthening. We've got talented youth in a lot of areas. I've not tracked that lad at all, so was just wondering, given some of his performances (not tonight) if he was rated at all. It wouldn't be a bad thin to loan an up and coming striker in on loan. Unknown quantity if scouted right.
conLAD logan Posted 20 June 2014 Posted 20 June 2014 enner valencia looks decent! and looking at his wiki his record looks good to! 18 goals in 23 games for his current club and 6 in 6 for ecuador.
Freeman's Wharfer Posted 20 June 2014 Posted 20 June 2014 I know this is very tenuous but I was on a plane in Brazil yesterday to Salvador via Natal and was talking to a French guy who was friends with Florent Malouda (he had photos on his phone of them together on nights out in Turkey with a few other players). Without knowing who I supported he said that he was probably going to be coming back to England and then probably "to a team like maybe Leicester" (Leicester pronounced in a very broken way). Thoughts? Wouldn't complain myself!

MC Prussian Posted 21 June 2014 Posted 21 June 2014 So when is the bid for Enner Valencia going in? Still has to pass the headbutt test first.
Harry - LCFC Posted 21 June 2014 Posted 21 June 2014 Knew someone would mention Valencia at some point. The commentators were sucking him off the entire game. He scored twice but I wouldn't have said he stood out massively.
kingfox Posted 21 June 2014 Posted 21 June 2014 Knew someone would mention Valencia at some point. The commentators were sucking him off the entire game. He scored twice but I wouldn't have said he stood out massively. He knows where the net is though, and is a threat in the air. Scored against England, Switzerland and two last night.
Callabinho Posted 21 June 2014 Posted 21 June 2014 Like the look of Carlos Sanchez of Colombia. Don't know if he's wanted around Europe but plays for Elche. You want Fidel from Elche, he's awesome!
pedmcl Posted 21 June 2014 Posted 21 June 2014 John Anthony Brooks for long term CB maybe? Despite the fact the french league is crap I am interested by Aboubakar. Gary Mackay-Steven looks like a good player for the No.10 role plus would probably come cheap since it is Dundee Utd.
Guest Posted 21 June 2014 Posted 21 June 2014 John Anthony Brooks for long term CB maybe? Despite the fact the french league is crap I am interested by Aboubakar. Gary Mackay-Steven looks like a good player for the No.10 role plus would probably come cheap since it is Dundee Utd. None of them in my opinion. I would be properly upset if we bought any of them. None are good enough, or even close.
Ric Flair Posted 22 June 2014 Posted 22 June 2014 None of them in my opinion. I would be properly upset if we bought any of them. None are good enough, or even close. Still think Joel Campbell's shit as well?
TJB-fox Posted 22 June 2014 Posted 22 June 2014 Purely from watching the world cup (along with previous thoughts): Besic, Bosnian CM nasty, strong but good on the ball Emineke, Atsu (loan) Jason Davidson, aussie left back Montero Solomon Kalou(would be a difficult signing mind)
OLD norfox Posted 22 June 2014 Posted 22 June 2014 So when is the bid for Enner Valencia going in? Or Emenike ??
sylofox Posted 22 June 2014 Posted 22 June 2014 Like the look of Carlos Sanchez of Colombia. Don't know if he's wanted around Europe but plays for Elche. Yes he is sadly by interpol.
kingfox Posted 22 June 2014 Posted 22 June 2014 Would not surprise me one bit, if we go in for Muhamed Besic tbh, young, has room to grow and as TJB alluded to he looks a nasty fooker, who tbh looks decent when going forward with the ball as well, wouldn't cost much either.
pedmcl Posted 22 June 2014 Posted 22 June 2014 None of them in my opinion. I would be properly upset if we bought any of them. None are good enough, or even close. Mackay-Steven would fit Knockaert and Mahrez's play style because they're quite similar, except Mackay-Steven passes the ball more. Haven't seen alot of the other too, suggested them purely of stats and reviews. If we got Hector Moreno I think he would suit better than JAB.

pedmcl Posted 22 June 2014 Posted 22 June 2014 Maybe Pablo Sarabia of Getafe? Doubt it would happen but Matthias Ginter from SC Freiburg for CB.
Bluearmyfox28 Posted 22 June 2014 Posted 22 June 2014 Kieran Richardson & Bradley Johnson please. Both quality. Both got experience which could be vital in a young group. But most importantly they are both in positions I think we need cover for.
Hack Posted 23 June 2014 Posted 23 June 2014 I could see us making an offer either loan or buy Yaya Sanogo from Arsenal ,I know the gunners don't have many up top but it looks like they will be spending big on strikers to give Giroud some support and rest. Sanogo looks to be a talent and a big unit at that.
Jimmy Posted 23 June 2014 Posted 23 June 2014 Johnson, yanks right back, looks the bizz. he was playing left wing for them during their quali campaign, he's joining Borussia Mönchengladbach anyway
