"3 More Deals/Loans Next Week" - BBC

[Albumen]

Gary Hooper.
Will never play for them again. Leaving in the summer. Leeds are rumoured to be interested in bringing him back. As are we.

Grabban though?

 

[Seagull by the Sea]

Why is it that people ignore JFC when mentioning players in midfield. He is definately in Sami's plans and will be surprised if he does not start the first league game, depending on who else we might sign

I didn't ignore JFC, I just forgot to add him on the list, and March too.

My main point was that we were strong in midfield with many different options.

seems daft buying players, AFTER pre season friendlies? no time for any mew players to fit in..

I'm impatient, but there are still a few pre-season fixtures left...

 

[Surrey_Albion]

Stockdale
Ward
Becchio

And I'll be a very happy boy, anyone know where becchio is in relation to first choice at Norwich? I think van wolfswinkle and the lad they signed from Celtic (cant think of his name ) are both ahead of him aren't they?

I hrard Becchio is off to wigan with Holt going the other way

That's the fella, Hooper, why won't he play for them again? Shame he would cost so much, I know he didn't exactly tear up the prem with Norwich but I think he would be very good, even at that level in a better team.

As for Becchio, I would imagine he would choose Leeds over us, as he was there a long time, unless he's wary of what's going on there, which he should be. So there's hope yet I suppose.

I was going to say that's a shit deal for Norwich, then I remembered they love Holt in Norwich

Crawley, Peterborough and Southampton to go. 3 weeks til Sheff Weds.
In 2012 Lopez, Orlandi and Hammond who played about 100 games in 2012/13 arrived on the very last day of the window on Aug 31st.
in 2013. Ward , some people's player of the season arrived in mid August.

The season had already started when Elliott Bennett arrived in 2009, as we had a battle with Wolves to buy him.

 

[Mackenzie]

Lets hope Leo passes his medical and agrees terms then.

It's been like that for the last 2 season, possibly even more.
I can't help thinking there's a 'penny counting' financial consideration to these deals.
Which is fine and dandy until it's trotted out as an excuse for a slow start.

One thing or the other, you can't have both.

Point taken. Good that we are so strong in that area. Question of keeping everyone happy when Stevens and Crofts back again fit. One good striker Goalkeeper and Left Back should do it and would like to see Walton on the bench. Tough on Casper, but we should be looking at the future and Walton looks ready to step up to the bench.

We should be looking to the point where we don't release so many people at the end of the season. Then pre season becomes easier and we will be up and running when the season starts. We haven't really had that since we got to the Amex

 

[Zebedee]

Lets hope Leo passes his medical and agrees terms then.

I wonder who we would have signed if Leo hadn't been sold?

I meant Becchio would never play for Norwich again. Hooper will be in their squad this year. Fantastic player at this level.

Word. Hooper & Grabban are, on paper, a bloody superb strike pairing at this level.

Bradley Johnson
Leroy fer
Nathan Redmond
Howson
Pilkington
E Bennett
Hoolahan (will be sold)
Tettey
Surman

Best midfield EVER in the championship.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Looks that way, yes. Though Surman will no doubt end up back at Bournemouth again.

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Leroy Fer is leaving, too. Probably to QPR.

 

[HawkTheSeagull]

Every man and his dog is signing for QPR !!

The dog for 'Arrys tax avoidance of course.
