[Archived] Transfer Tittle Tattle

[joey_big_nose]

I don't doubt that Jones is a committed player. But if he comes down into the Championship with us, there's a big chance he might be forgotten about and the next big thing will catch the eye of the big clubs. Especially if Rovers as a team don't do that well, as people will be less likely to notice his performances.

Of course players get signed from the Championship too, but this summer is his best chance of a move if we go down. I'm very much anti Venkys but I think if relegated, we'd struggle to keep hold of him under any owners.

If we go down Jones goes no doubt about it. He is clearly, in my eyes at least, the outstanding young defender in the premier league English or otherwise. Real Madrid, Barca, Inter etc. may fancy a punt as much as Liverpool, Chelsea, Man Utd etc. That he can be so good in a team struggling like us speaks volumes.

Best young player since Duff. I would probably say better.

Even if we stay up we have him for two year tops. Unheard of for a defender of his age to look so good anywhere in the Premiership as far as I can recall, maybe Rio aside.

I'd put 50 quid on 20 England caps at least.

in fairness to venky's ..if the walkers were still in control they would sell Jones if someone was to bid £15m - £20m for him and we would be arguing all night as to how much the manager (whoever it may be) would see of it

I agree he'll leave if we go down. I was more saying despite his loyalties to Rovers, he'd be totally justified in leaving.

Interesting just read an interview with Fabiano who says that there was a proposal from Spurs and Blackburn.

Rudd

Not sure why Spurs would be after him.

[AJW]

Levy wants to sell several high-profile players, including four who are currently out on loan – striker Robbie Keane, who is at West Ham, and midfielders Jamie O'Hara (at Wolverhampton Wanderers), Giovani dos Santos (at Racing Santander) and David Bentley (at Birmingham City).

Defender Jonathan Woodgate and goalkeeper Carlo Cudicini are both out of contract in the summer and are unlikely to be offered new deals.

Tottenham will also listen to offers for the likes of Roman Pavlyuchenko, Niko Kranjcar, Alan Hutton, Vedran Corluka and Wilson Palacios.

Papiss Cisse up to £13.5m

Find it hard to believe we're still in at those prices. If Arsenal want him surely they'll get him.

Apologies if this has been posted before.. I haven't seen it.

He would have taken the chance, that Robbie Keane missed and done so with his eyes closed. He is the type of striker, that you know will be in the right position at the right time.

Is this the man to strengthen our front line next season????

[Mc Love]

Kind of looks like Dunn

[trueblue]

32 years old !! No Thanks

[Gumbi]

Maybe Dunn said he wanted Nachos and someone misunderstood him.

"Blackburn are keen to strengthen their squad during the summer and bolster their forward line with some much needed experience."

FFS Our forward line is way too "experienced as it is.

[Iceman]

RVN would be worth a look IMO. I know he is 34, but if you looking for goals, then he is a good choice

[Exiled_Rover]

Beat me to it.

Seb Larsson

I seem to recall in the Jan window certain people were very certain he was coming to us at the end of the season. Apologies I can't remember who, anyone got any 'inside' word that we might still be getting him? He would still be a decent signing in my eyes on a free. We seem to have missed that EH Diouf role in some of our games and Larsson has a decent cross on him. I wouldn't want him to stunt Hoillett's progress by keeping him out of the team but to be honest if we strengthened the side I'd much rather see him in a more central role next season anyway (assuming we stay up).

Edit: I realise that I shouldn't be making that assumption yet, but hopefully....

[JAL]

Seb Larrson is average to say the least, and as for Novo, both just highlight how bad Steve Kean will be as a manager for Blackburn Rovers as all are below the standard required.
