[Archived] possible transfer targets summer 2013

[patrickvalery]

He can kiss my big arse, go to bolton then, or is that one of Nicko's mates reporting. I concur with the other posters if he is so great why are Liverpool allowing him to go for 1.5 and why are Bolton not knocking the door down to get him.

Hatred? that's a bit heavy init?

Yeah it was a bad choice of word. Reticence maybe? I dunno. But whatever it is, I can understand him being cautious. It was always going to to be like this. You reap what you sow. Rovers have got a bad name right now and it will prove to be a problem sometimes when recruiting players with other options. That said, chuck enough money at it..........

Come on, it's an article written by someone employed by Sports Direct!

True which is why what i said rings true possibly from the desk of Joe Kinnear himself.

[beanie]

Can someone more ITK than myself confirm what a Liverpool fan just told me? Apparently Spearing is on £60k a week at Anfield?

Ha not a chance i know it was when Kenny and Comoli where throwing money around at evryone but not a chance. If he was i would fully understand him not going anywhere till that deal was run right down as he will not even get half of that where ever he was to wind up.

[SoldierMo]

UNLEADED any more transfer news? I see the Elche for Rochina story only jus come out frm sky sports news when you revealed it a week ago...and updates on the Bukgarian kid??

[Guest Norbert]

If Spearing doesn't really want to come, then move on. A good player in this division, but he could be a bit of a Danny Murphy in terms of attitude if he's lukewarm or worse about moving to us. There are other players as good as him about.

[JK89]

Spearing will walk in our side if he arrives. Twice the player of Lowe an Williamson no doubt about that !

But you also need to have commitment, and a will to succeed.

No chance. think your Liverpool fan is taking the mick out of you Mate.

reckon he will be on 20k basic a week at Liverpool

[Guest Norbert]

And there is the crux. would he? Or would he sulk becasue he didn't get the move he wanted?

I guess we'll find out if/when he signs.

Ha, yeah. To be fair, some Liverpool players are and have been on daft money considering where Liverpool are these days, but still!!!

Think the first part of this post is half of the problem!!

Why are people assuming this Spearing is a diva? Is it based on one poorly worded article?

His favourite game is blitzball.

Exactamundo. Poor journalism with no quotes based purely on the fact he was at Bolton.

Even if he does only discuss by phone, it'll be so his fitness training won't be disrupted in asia imo.

So Mike, The Black Death...

I think the bubonic plague got a bit of a bad rep. I'm sure people probably liked those bubode boil things. I bet they were really quite attractive and I'm sure those millions of fatalities across Europe where just a coincidence.

Spearing? Meh. If he'd rather be at Bolton then we should move on.

Desperately hoping that we bring in some decent loanees...

[JK89]

Spearing is on 25k at the most an has 2 years to run on his deal. He'll get 20 here an his work rate an passing ability is better than anyone in our midfield. I know Lowe is 1 of ours but if we're to succeed an get out this league. We need better players than him !

Cheeky beggar

[rovers11]

Spearing will join whoever offers him the highest wages. It's a simple as that.

Bolton don't seem to be able to afford a transfer fee for him so probably would struggle to match our wage offer. A prem team could offer more as could the newly relegated teams. However, us and Bolton seem to be the only teams interested at the moment. We are in the pole position simply because we can afford the fee and pay him higher wages.

[The Rover of Finland]

Spurs have even more midfielders under contract than Rovers. Maybe we could loan one? Would Gosling come this time? He won't get a chance at Newcastle.

[JK89]

I hope he does choose us. Be great to see him in our team, someone we could do with badly. As for dan gosling, computer says nooooo

Gosling would have been good enough for Kean so he must be awful.

[Guest Norbert]

That big injury probably did Gosling in. Worth a trial at least though, just to check.

[JK89]

Positions we need to sign for are clear. LB. I'd say cresswell, winger I'd say Antonio. Target man someone like shoal amoebi. Plus spearing If we can get him.

[chaddyrovers]

wasn't Gosling linked with going to Palace. sure I read that on the Daily Mail website

Spearing would be a good signing for us.

if Spearing signs would it mean that Rovers would look to get rid of Etuhu and Pedersen???

our current centre midfielders options are Lowe, Williamson, Pedersen, Etuhu, O'Sullivan, Marrow and Judge.

Positions we need to sign for are clear. LB. I'd say cresswell, winger I'd say Antonio. Target man someone like shoal amoebi. Plus spearing If we can get him.

where are we getting the money from for these signings then? and with the new Football League Financial Fairplay rules coming in this season Aswell!!!

them 4 signings would cost 6.5 mil to 7 mil.

we got 4/5 wide players in Judge, Taylor, King, Nunes and Pedersen. so why do we need another one?

we got Rhodes, Rochina, Dj and Best so don't need another striker unless one leaves which I cant see tbh.

No to Cresswell cos he will cost too much which we cant afford!!!

We got Kilgallon, Henley, Morris and O'Connell who can play at Left back. haven't include Givet cos I don't think he will be at Rovers at the start of the season.

if we want a left back then go for Friend from Boro or free transfer like Shorey.

Sorry, but Shola Ameobi is just plain rubbish. Sure, he puts himself about a bit, but he has only scored 3 goals in his career. He makes Heskey look like Gerd Muller. I'd go with the other two though, if we could afford them of course.

[JK89]

Cresswell is the best in the division an is itching to get back back to the north west according to reports. We've got money off olssonn, we'll have money off robbo hopefully an wages will clear up once ethuhu Pederson an givet do one. We're not guna get out this league with free transfers an a manager heading into his 1st season as a 1st team manager.
