Feidhlim Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 These things take time - Bent only left last week. Next week I would expect everyone to be busy, hopefully us too. On a side note, can we please stop suggesting stupid targets like DeBruyne? Lerner is a billionaire, so yeah, I'm sure we have the resources to sign him but he started the first game for Chelsea and was on the bench against us. He is nothing like our historical signings under Lambert, i.e. Premiership player who costs £10m+ and would require significant wages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveVillan Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Sky have linked us with Tendayi Darikwa at Chesterfield, could be a lazy link due to our past dealings with them (Bowery) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villan4Life Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 No chance of Townsend, give it a year and he could be a regular for them. No thanks to Moses, we already have NZogbia for what he offers and I dont particularly want him either No thanks, don't rate Townsend he also done NOTHING for 15 games at the Sty last season for Birmiongham!! only loan he has done well at was QPR!! Seriously not sure what the fuss is about him he is very average indeed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginko Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 So, you're judging him on his past performances in the Championship but not his more recent ones where he did well in the Premier League? I'm going to put it out there and claim you're not a scout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villan4Life Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 I have seen a lot of him! and he isn't that great!! not like Villa Talk to over-rate rubbish like Townsend after a few good games, i bet you was one of the guys who thinks Callum McManaman and James McClean the season before was good after few okish games? he has been out loads Townsend has, hasn't pulled up many trees at Birmingham, Leeds, Ipswich, Watford, Millwall etc!! QPR was so poor that it's HARD NOT to shine in that team, like McManaman at Wigan and McClean at Sunderland. I am willing to be i know a lot more about him footballing wise, than yourself Ginko No i am not a scout but I know quite a bit about players within europe and lower divisions.. Probably a lot more than you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's rated highly @ WHL and is nowhere near 'very average'. I don't think we'd get near him tbh and I think HalfTimePost is closer to the mark with his comment that in a year he could be a Spurs regular. His problem is the high profile players being bought above him make it hard to break through. But he doesn't disappoint when he gets the chance.

Ginko Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 "I bet I know more than you do," are you going to get your big brother to come and beat me up after school next? Jesus. Making assumptions is also a poor way to argue, by the way, though I do rate McManaman as he played well. Also, surely it's harder to play well in a poor team? I don't even know why I'm biting to be honest, if your post is anything to go by you're about 12-years-old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villan4Life Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 respect you guys points of view, just don't think he is that good, he has a hard shot.. so does Craig Gardner!! we will see how he does this season i personally think he is over-rated like so many youngsters at moment!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isa Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 I actually quite like Townsend. Rated him before he even went to QPR. Think he will move ahead of Lennon in the pecking order quite soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Condimentalist Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 As Chelski have just pinched Willian from under spudzzz noses wouldn't mind us looking at Victor Moses (no rhyme intended!) Where does he play though? He does Agbonlahor's role but not as well. Behind Gab we've got Tonev desperate for a chance. Next season Grealish will be knocking on the door in that position too. Moses is alright but I don't think we should be signing players for the sake of it, a crafty creator would add to the squad but I'd leave it there until January.

BOF Posted August 23, 2013 Moderator Share Posted August 23, 2013 Now Moses is someone I feel is overrated, no idea what people see in himPossibly over-rated in the sense that he's not quite up to the level of his fellow attacking midfielders at Chelsea. He'd still be more than good enough for us though in that position considering Stephen Ireland and possibly Aleks Tonev are the only 2 who can play that role.
