TRO Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 It strikes me ever since we had the incumbent transfer window we have struggled to buy well or effectively. we seemed to buy much more effectively.....before the window was introduced. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 (edited) Crystal Palace look into loaning Ben Davies and signing Rudy Gestede 'Crystal Palace are to explore the possibility of taking the Wales international defender, Ben Davies, on loan from Tottenham next month and have been made aware of the potential availability of the Aston Villa striker, Rudy Gestede. [...] The need for Palace to secure a back-up striker to support Christian Benteke has been exacerbated by Connor Wickham being ruled out for the season after undergoing surgery to repair a damaged cruciate knee ligament. Another forward, the Chelsea loanee Loïc Rémy, has yet to feature after suffering a thigh injury in September and will most likely be absent until mid-January at least as he continues to work on his fitness. In that context, Gestede could become an appealing option. The Benin forward cost Aston Villa around £4.5m from Blackburn in the summer of 2015 and scored five top-flight goals as the club finished bottom of the division. He has managed three this term, but is behind Jonathan Kodjia in the pecking order. Villa may look to secure Palace’s out-of-favour former Birmingham City attacker, Jordon Mutch, as part of the deal. Pardew, who may also sound out Leicester City over Leonardo Ulloa . . .' https://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/dec/13/crystal-palace-loan-ben-davies-gestede-alan-pardew Edited December 14, 2016 by HanoiVillan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Marley the Bognor Villan Posted December 14, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 14, 2016 IMO we need to replace Gabby, Westwood, Gards, Elphick, Hutton and Gestede with better players in those positions. Especially if we want to achieve and maintain premiership football standards. Ayew can also move on as I'm fed up with him walking around with a face like a slapped arse. I'm not saying all of the above are of no use but none of them are good enough for the prem and if we can replace them with improvements then why keep them? I think last nights piss poor performance has actually come at a good time with Dr Tony being present and the transfer window opening in a couple of weeks. Better to have a reality check now than go through the window thinking that we are in better shape than we actually are. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Pangloss Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I've never been impressed with him at club level, was OK last season and has hardly set the championship alight, barely worth half of the £10m fee quoted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROTTERDAM1982 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Not for me Brady.The fact that Westwood and GG seem to be the only options to play alongside Jed, and the fact that Elphick is our only option as a back up CH tells you that our priorities lie elsewhere. Jenkinson would be a good addition, but we need another central defender as well, and we need at least 1 central midfielder, if not 2. Sell Ayew, and sell Gestede if you ned to, but only if we have another attacker coming in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson1 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 This may seem mad and I've not been drinking (honest), but if Steve has any influence left at Man U, what about a cheeky loan enquiry for Rashford in Jan? He's not getting games in his natural position at present and I'd be happy if Man U even have an immediate recall clause. Am I being just crazy here or is it worth a shout? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
