theboyangel 6,793 Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 I would actually be quite happy if we got Chadli in, would be good for Benteke to have another Belgian aboard and Chadli needs to prove he can cut it at this level. As for Joel Campbell, still not convinced by him (although he'd be a better option than Sanogo from the Arse) Link to post Share on other sites
rodders0223 13,613 Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Gnabry on loan is the latest Twitter guff apparently. Good talent to be honest but I haven't seen enough of him myself. Not sure he would be capable of playing in and out. Besides, he should go to the championship first or we might as well use one of our own. Rather Campbell or a long shot at Sanogo on loan than Gnabry!! I would rather bring Heskey back than go for Sanago tbfh. You sure about that? Sanogo goalscoring record in France was good with 11 in 21!! and done well pre-season with 4 goals in one game and looked a constant threat in Charity Shield He was different class yesterday. *not really.

ROTTERDAM1982 541 Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Lestienne permanent signing, and Hernandez either on loan, or as part of a Vlaar deal. Link to post Share on other sites
alreadyexists 7,367 Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Lestienne permanent signing, and Hernandez either on loan, or as part of a Vlaar deal. Hernandez started for Man Utd yesterday so might fancy his chances now Van Gaal is there, so maybe he wouldn't be as willing to go on loan. I think he'd be more likely to either stay or go to Europe. Would be great for us though definitely, Benteke and Hernadez would be frightening. Link to post Share on other sites
ROTTERDAM1982 541 Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Lestienne and Hernandez are exactly the type of players we should be signing.Both have quality, you could argue nearly top quality, both have something to prove, both could, if they prove themselves , be CL players. CB is a draw, we should use him to attract these kind of players. Link to post Share on other sites

ROTTERDAM1982 541 Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 I think Sanchez wiil make a big difference defensively, give more protection to the back 4. Granted we are a better team with Vlaar in, but i would love Hernandez down VP, and with Vlaar being 29, and Hernandez being 25, if the deal is possible, i would go for it tbh Link to post Share on other sites

If we suddenly then switch to 4-4-2 we are going to have to revamp the midfield to accommodate the extra striker, plus bring in a replacement for Vlaar. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

DamsonwoodVillan 175 Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Yes I think keeping Vlaar is key to be honest. I would not be sacrificing him in pursuit of another attacking player. We need to think from the point of view we now have a good keeper, a decent back four, and Sanchez just in front. We have to build from that at this stage, not take away from it. Chadli would get a big thumbs up from me. Link to post Share on other sites

Hernandez is good but nothing special imo. Vlaar would probably be about 10x more important to us than trying to carry Hernandez. We should bring in an attacking midfielder that can play the wings as well and play Weimann upfront til we get either of Libor or Benteke back. 5 Link to post Share on other sites
AValon 542 Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Lestienne I can understand, but Hernandez is'nt necessary. And why is throwing Vlaar into the pot even an option? We're not instantly going to go from being crap to brilliant, so we need to keep people like Concrete until they can be replaced like for like....or until players like Okore get the experience to take his place. Throw some money at him and get another three years out of him. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Isa 2,855 Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 We don't even really need another striker and especially not at the expense of losing our captain and MVP. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
JoeParker91 166 Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 I'd much rather our remaining funds went on securing Vlaar to a new deal. Link to post Share on other sites
tomh621 196 Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) I still think we lack creativity like another attacking midfielder like holtby and a winger be pretty happy then That's why we bought Joe Cole and Kieran Richardson? You dont think there's any chance Joe Cole might get injured or need rotating? Proper CAM would be good preferably younger than Joe Cole. And Gabby/Weimann on the wing? Another 1st team winger would also be decent. Edited August 17, 2014 by tomh621 Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post Phumfeinz 4,784 Posted August 17, 2014 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 I have it on good authority that if we are going sign one or two more players this transfer window then it's going to happen within the next two weeks. 6 Link to post Share on other sites
