Modric will be getting so jealous watching these other players clearing out their lockers and saying goodbye .
Interesting that we've accepted bids for Dawson. AVB must have been impressed with Caulker as that would leave our centre back options as Kaboul, Vertonghen, Gallas and Caulker.
All this talk of outgoings is all well and good, but where is the incoming player news? Where is it?! RARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!
I think this gives Caulker a bit more a chance to get games and develop with us. Which i'm 110% in favour of.
Remember Huddlestone is quite adept at playing centre half, too.
Nothing on the OS that Dawson is off either...I didn't see anything on the OS that has confirmed this.
But how many times have we sold players and not adequately replaced them? Raziak for Kanoute? Campbell for Berbatov? Zokora for Carrick?I think it's a real positive actually as how many times before have we all discussed our bloated squad and the requirement to 'sell to buy'?
I'd wager these next two weeks will be absolutely manic at the club - both in's and out's.
True..Yes, but not the high line that AVB likes to employ. THudd would need 3 nautical miles of water in which to turn!
Quite surprised at this, as I think Daws is a decent player. Hope we're not left short by the end of the window. However, ILWT.
hate to see daws go id keep daws and get rid of gallas, but what do i know
So we'll be left with Vertonghen, Kaboul, Gallas and Caulker then? If that is the case we'll need one in because Gallas will spend quite a bit of time injured.....
The figure was £700k + add-ons I think we had offered a deal rising to £2m!Wasn't the Bostock one lower than the transfer fee we actually offered Palace in the first place?
Hehe. Simon Jlolrdan.
Was that JJ declining to answer questions about Leandro, or something else?Modric, Jenas, Rose, Bassong, Dawson and Huddlestone also rumoured to be outward bound.
The whole Fryers story has gone quiet, but if we are thinking of letting Rose go, we must have somebody lined up to cover BAE.
Numbers are looking thinner, we'll need midfield reinforcements. Unless we can negotiate Porto down, I can't see it being Moutinho, so I'm expecting M'villa as Modric's replacement, although Pjanic? was linked yesterday. This Israeli kid sounds promising too, maybe replacing Jenas as the squad player.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang also linked, like a cheap Loic Remy, would do for me as wide forward cover, also able to play up top. Adebayor in, Leandro to follow according to yesteday's ITK. And despite AVB's denials, I can't see us keeping Defoe if we get Ade and are still looking for another striker as JJ alluded. AVB also said Kane would be striker no.3, so with Aubameyang as more wing cover ish, we'd have greater options.
