Summer 2011 Transfer Window Part Two

[herbergeehh]

Then why have you chosen to persist with pessimism for the majority of your posts? Surely a balanced view would be healthier for your sanity?

Leave it be, this is exactly the kind of discussion that just floods the board.

Poli and Palombo are great players, but they are as far as I know happy to follow Sampdoria down, and then up. Italy still has a few one club players..

[ABBEY]

Bslwer we didn't havnt needed to spend that amount because players prices are insane now.we gave spent in ratio that amount before.

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Nicko,

Any idea if we've retained an interest in Oriol Romeu at barca?

[Mercer]

When we only spend in primark people complain.

When we can afford harrods people remind us of the bargains in primark.

I despair!

A wise man would shop at both ensuring that he still picked-up the bargains.

[Jamesw1982]

right back could be nedum Onuoha or Serge Aurier who we have been linked with before.

Left winger Nzogbia or Vicente.

Striker Papiss Cisse Or Pavlyuchenko for me would be fine

Defender. Mills, Dann Or Johnson to go with miranda would be superb.

Midfielders. Kallstrom , Huddlestone , JJ or Cattermole. Any of them 4 would be worthwhile additions.

Young striker. I can only think or Connor Wickham. But i seriously doubt he will come here. I think he will end up at liverpool myself.

Although there is nothing wrong with paying the right price for quality.

[LeftWinger]

I think there will be SIX in at least and I will predict here and now that around £45 to £50 million will be spent.

Quite happy to stick my neck out on that after the vibes picked up over the past 48 hours.

I'm assuming that is £45 to £50,000,000?

I am aware of the inflation factor within football today, it was just an observation to put it in perspective. We could spend as much as we have in a hundred years in a single window.

Or maybe not. According to Soccerbase we've spent nearly 100m since the turn of the century.

Well spotted leftwinger,

I bet nicko is having a right chuckle

[Hughesy]

STRIKER - Hope we avoid Vucinic & Adebayor and spend less on wages....someone like Pavluchenko, Gyan or similar

YOUNG STRIKER - ??? The young lad @ Bilbao please - Iker Muniain

LEFT WINGER - Vicente

CENTRE HALF - Miranda, what about Shawcross if Samba leaves?

2 x MIDFIELD - Mystery M or J Jones/ Creative mid

RIGHT BACK - Kyle Walker please

You need to slow down on the white powder!

Doh nice one Nicko :rolleyes:

[True Blue & White]

These T-Shirts will be available on September 1st

Isn't Huddlestone one of the main midfielders at Tottenham? I can't see why they would sell him. I had the impression he was very highly thought of.

We've already got Keith Andrews who else would command a fee of £45?

[Kamy100]

If Nicko is prepared to stick his neck out with the budget prediction then that is good enough for me, his sources are usually impeccable.

I'd be delighted with this kinda money being spent, as long as the money has come from Venky's and is not borrowed from banks.

Certainly interesting times ahead and Venky's PR wasn't wrong when they said that signings would 'excite' fans.

[Hughesy]

New main striker + Young striker + Roberts + Hoilett/ Rochina = Kalinic must be on his way out??

[BiggusLaddus]

Question, have we in our entire history spent £50m? If we have spent more then it can't be terribly much more, and certainly no more than £100m.

Easily. Jack spent £40-45m in the relegation season didn't he? Dailly £5.3m, Ward £4m, Jansen £4.5m etc

[Hekla]

Luke Young for the right back position?

[Fylde Coast Fan]

Very excited. Hope we can make a statement of intent and get one high profile name in soon though, calm the restless natives a bit.

You just opened the door to philipl. So here we go

[USRoverME]

With O'hara going from Villa to Wolves, is there someone at wolves that might fit into our side in the middle. Can't think of anyone I'd want off hand, but one never knows.

[PAFELL]

Got to say this is the best window for some time. Where it all ends up, nobody knows. But there are some goings on.

Just as an update - and for a check list you can cut out and keep...I think this is the check list that is being filled.

STRIKER - a massive one if possible...probably a record fee...Vucinic top of that lost until he goes elsewhere...some alternatives being looked into...but a lot of elite clubs want this calibre of target.

YOUNG STRIKER - a few 'emerging' players being studied...after all you need more than one class attacker.

LEFT WINGER - definitely on the wish list...got a name but [see above] there are others after him.

CENTRE HALF - Miranda still a possible...if not it would be a big-money deal and the signs are that the big dough is being saved for the main striker.

MIDFIELD - still no second confirmation on the Prem player I like...starting to think he is one of several being researched right now...we shall see...there could yet be TWO midfielders depending on exits.

RIGHT BACK - a surprise to me, but there is a target...and it will hopefully be out in the morning.

If that's not enough for you, then I don't know what is.

I think there will be SIX in at least and I will predict here and now that around £45 to £50 million will be spent.

Got to ask Nicko, but where is the money coming from. Even if venkys put in the already mentioned 5 mill + the jones money 16.5 (as the rest is add on's at a later date) = 21.5 mill.

Is this money coming from Venky's or via the banks?

[Anti-Dingle-Brigade]

Lets wait and see before we even discuss big money being spent.

But all the sounds coming from Ewood and Pune, and now Nicko, suggest that big plans have been made.

Exciting times.

I love having mental owners.
