CI Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 I'd use Stephen Ireland as bait to get Dempsey tbh Yes he's got no resale but we will get 3 solid years out of him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amo69 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Of course. Totally forgot he went out on loan. First season was a right off for him but he definitely improved last year. The thing with Ireland is you can see he is a genuinely talented player. A natural if you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted August 7, 2012 Author Moderator Share Posted August 7, 2012 I'd use Stephen Ireland as bait to get Dempsey tbh Yes he's got no resale but we will get 3 solid years out of him You do know Hughes isn't manager at Fulham any more? Why would Fulham be willing to swap Dempsey for Ireland without a shed load of cash on top. Dempsey is a good player but at 29 he isn't worth the money it would take to get him not that I think he would join us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 I didn't say it would be a straight swap Dempsey is different class to Ireland do you'd look at player + cash move Give Dempsey the armband and Ireland's 68k a week (if he wants that much) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted August 7, 2012 Author Moderator Share Posted August 7, 2012 Ah yeah simples, because Ireland will happily go there and Dempsey will forgo his stated desire to play in the CL to come here oh and Fulham will be happy to pick up Ireland's wages. What is Lambert playing at??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVFCforever1991 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Still think we are looking at selling Warnock/Hutton and then we will bring in a couple more players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CI Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 To sell, there needs to be a buyer Hence the pause in ALL activity for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8pints Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Which is the most needed? Striker? Defensive midfielder? Left back? Other? I'm going with Striker (I'd like each one though, especially Other) Someone to link up with Bent and unlock defences, be a foil and score a fair few themselves. We need someone else for oppositions to think about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymond Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Striker for sure. Left back a close second. I am not so worried about the midfield. I feel like Clark looked good in that position last year and Warnock can play there as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
