Summer Transfer Speculation and Shit

[Master Splinter]

Didn't Pod play as a striker vs City? Where has Pod played for the majority of the preseason?

On the left.

I liked Martin Samuels' suggestion on how to resolve tedious transfer sagas. Get all parties in to a locked room, a room with a tiger in a cage that hasn't eaten for two days and give them 10 minutes to sort it out.

Chakma officially gone.

He's been officially gone at least 3 times in this thread already

Anyway good luck to him.

Hope he keeps palace and more importantly Holloway up

We actually got a fee for him?

We had to get the £1 we offered Liverpool from somewhere

Quiet day today it seems. Just scanning the metro and they say we are lining up a bid for kondogbia according to their sources in europe (probably goal.com)

Apparently he has an 8m release clause. If thats the case why hasnt he been bought already even if he is a squad filler. Havent seen much but when i have he has been pretty impressive and can play CB as well.

Also why the need to "bid" when there is a release clause of 8m. Or is arene going to bid 5m and watch us lose another i wonder

havent seen much but heard he isuseful, bring him in and ship Frimps out to the Championship on loan or a fraction of?

Gustavo is a step in the right direction, our midfield should be pretty decent with him hopefully replacing Arteta.

Giroud is actually in good form. I'm not too worried about him, sure I'd like Suarez but it aint gonna happen.

What is dumbfounding though is no sign of a CB or GK. Chesney isn't good enough and I'm not convinced that the Kos/BFG partnership is up to it.

Madness.

disagree Ches is not good enough.....but agree we need another GK if not but for the fact that we got rid of Don Vito.....experienced head to teach the art of non brain fart games to our Polish stopper

You think it was good to have Don Vito as Chesney's teacher? Don Vito was/is fucking shit!

We need a number 1 keeper. Chesney is still young so he can recover. We're not obliged to play him just so he can learn his trade, we need a ready made number 1 keeper. We're a top four club and it's ridiculous to have Chesney as our number 1 keeper.
