jacketspuds Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 (edited) Wonder if Adama will leave before the close of the window now that we are signing Adomah. I'd say don't let the door hit you on the way out but it would probably break a bone in his glass body. Still think we need an ACM. Would love a loan move for Luis Alberto.

mikeyp102 Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 As officially the Technical Director doesn't start yet, anyone think we'll be spending a lot again in January? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be surprised if there is a link there and Kodija, is the player we announce later today. Kodija looks like a good player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilko154 Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 He looks ideal in my opinon, a proper right winger who can beat a man, cross a ball and look to cut inside and have a go. Get him signed and then we can work on the ST, AM and another CM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're prepared to pay big money to make that happen. I'm thrilled that's our new attitude. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thrilled that's our new attitude. I agree, I know things don't exactly seem rosy at the moment, but think we're we'd be if Lerner was still here. Bidding £500k for someone like Tonev or giving N'Zogbia another 5 years (I know they didn't play as strikers, but just an example of dross). Doesn't sound like this one panned out, Hernandez looked good but there are other players. If they won't sell for £14(20)m then there's not much more we can do. On to the next one/two. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 It was rumoured that we went for Kodija before but were put off by City's asking price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaglint Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Speaking to the City fans yesterday they seemed to think £10m was ridiculous money for Kodjia so not sure what they'll think when they wake up and read it's £14m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post sexbelowsound Posted August 28, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted August 28, 2016 I don't care how much we spend. The sooner we are back in the Premier League the better so I can watch this shit on a fuzzy screen rather than trawling the net for streams of an fm radio station. I actually contemplated calling my Mum and having her play the radio down the phone to me yesterday before cracking and paying for AVTV. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the funds and we're going all out to bring in number 1 targets That's what well run clubs do. Now if we didn't have the funds then questions might need to be asked but we do. So IMO it's what we should be doing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still want a well-run club, despite new found wealth. Would you rather it be 'well run' in your eyes but in this league, or spend more on transfers and be in the PL? There are a lot of other factors to running a club well than transfer fees, it's obviously a major expense though. The club personnel has changed so much and I'm pleased with a lot of that, it seems to be getting more and more well run, gambling a few extra millions on a good player wouldn't make us badly run. Starving the team of investment, selling our best players, giving out stupid contracts to idiots, and casually running the club in to ground and relegation, now that's running the club poorly. Ah well, maybe our definitions are different, I'm sure we both hope that this current project is a huge success Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
