Duck Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Diego Rolan - 3867 minutes played last season, works out at 43 full games, scored 17 and got 8 assists. Works out 1 in 2.5 for goals, 1 in 5.3 for assists. Not bad at all for a 22 year old.Fookin yes, get this guy in ASAP. I'd love the Holte End to blast out a chorus of Keep Rolan, Rolan, Rolan. They see me Rolannnnn, they hatinnnnn..... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick76 Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I wouldn't mind if we keep £10-20m to spend in Jan. Inevitably out of potentially 8-10 signings not all will work out and it would be prudent to see who beds in and address any gaps then before it's too late. welcome back in to England Randy, hope the flight from the U.S. Was comfortable 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I want him by the way. I think he turned them down as he doesnt get on with the Tinker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who else needs a striker? Can't see top clubs seeing him as anything other than back up, and most seem sorted? Newcastle?

I would be amazed, totally amazed, if we did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted July 22, 2015 Moderator Share Posted July 22, 2015 Net spend is misleading when it comes to whether a squad is better before or after a transfer window. But net spend does hint at a club's ambition. Which means we probably won't have a large one 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatty Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Diego Rolan ? No thank you, I don't see any improvement over what we have/had last season. Strikers that look formidable in some European leagues, which this guy doesn't, get a rude awakening in the Prem - and there are numerous strikers with as equally good and even better games to goals ratio. Of course some players progress and take up the challenge but I would still much rather go for Austin though I concede his name doesn't have the same exciting ring to it...

But net spend does hint at a club's ambition. Which means we probably won't have a large one Absolutely. But people being worried that our net spend might be low this window or saying stuff like you need to spend a net of £20m to stay in the league doesn't make any sense. If we spend a net of zero this window then we'll be absolutely fine (assuming Benteke goes and Sherwood carries on his impressive management). Yes it may show a lack of ambition by the club. But in terms of the current season it's nothing to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
