Jay.P.A Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I remember there was interest in Scott Sinclair earlier on in the season, would PL be interested in bringing him in? Look doubtful especially now with Tonev looking like a done deal. Sinclair would probably cost about 6-8m as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa-revolution Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Anybody seen the Daily Mail's transfer special? They believe we have 6 million to spend and link us to Jermaine Jenas http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2337146/Premier-League-transfer-special--ins-outs.html I like the fact that over 4 months after he's been sold (which they themselves even reported at the time), that article lists Stephen Warnock as one "Who we might lose". That should tell you absolutely everything you should ever need to know about just how little the Daily Mail knows about football or apparently can even be arsed to research. What a laughable joke of a shitrag. Anybody seen the Daily Mail's transfer special?

Pez1974 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I remember there was interest in Scott Sinclair earlier on in the season, would PL be interested in bringing him in? Look doubtful especially now with Tonev looking like a done deal. Sinclair would probably cost about 6-8m as well. I doubt he would be interested in Sinclair. He represents everything that got us into the mess we are just getting out of - expensive; high wages; somewhat inconsistent; lack of committment (preferred wages to playing); etc. I love the way we are going with Lambert - Tonev would cost much less than Sinclair, probably be on less than half what he would want in wages, international etc. The current England problems are easily put down to a lack of English players in the Premier League, but the transfer fees and wages being demanded result in clubs looking abroad for cheaper and better players. Scott Sinclair (amongst many others) are a perfect example of this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jarpie Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 McGeady has been dreadful for Ireland. Hope we're not in for him. I think that's pretty much given, I'd be shocked if Lambo would be in for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt you were watching the game with that comment Fair play then, glad he had a good game against a very very poor 'nation' I would have to judge him over an entire season, not just one game. All I'm saying is he doesn't fit into Lambert's transfer policy.

StefanAVFC Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I meant generally from watching the last 3/4 games. I just thought he was greedy with the ball and took on the shot when it wasn't needed. This is the McGeady I've seen numerous times so I presumed that's what his overall performance was like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommybread Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 McGeady is excellent at taking on his man and beating them but then after his final ball is often a let down and really inconsistent. Doesn't seem to be the type of player Paul Lambert would sign and he would cost a bit much for Lambert as well. Don't see him coming in here. If he could improve on his delivery and decision making he could be one hell of a player but then again that could be said for many wingers.

norwegianvillain Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 (edited) Jan Mucha is released, should we sign him as backup goalie? Saw him once this season, and he was outstanding. Schwarzer released as well, but he would probably demand high wages Edited June 8, 2013 by norwegianvillain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnkarl Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 We should be in for some U21 players from the champs now. Henriksen or Rudi for example. Defensive mids that we really need and proven in high quality leagues/EL/CL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 McGeady is a good player on his day but his day is few and far between. His last day was some time in 2008, I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schwarzer released as well, but he would probably demand high wages Ross Turnbull released from Chelski too. I haven't seen him play for ages, but I vaguely remember him being an okay backup. (Unless he's already agreed a deal with another team, in which case ignore me!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defensive mids that we really need and proven in high quality leagues/EL/CL. Henriksen could be immense. Player of the season at Alkmaar if im not mistaken? Anyways, a player with huge potential. I dont think he fits very well in our national side, because of Drillo's old tactics, but in a playing side like we seems to be moving towards, i think he could be a really good player. I wouldnt call him a DM btw, maybe you thought about Nordtveit? Would be happy to have him as well, hes definitely upper Bundesliga standard, and would without doubt strengthen our team.

Morpheus Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 McGeady has no redeeming features at all concerning his footballing ability. Completely shit and hopefully come the start of next season nowhere near our club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
