Surely we haven't got a chance of getting either of these two when clubs like Leeds and Forest want them?

Loans should be last resort IMHO... let's go there once we have hit the perm market...

Not great on this twitter lark but if this is Jack Cork's twitter, it seems he is familiar with Brighotn. Didn't realise Alan still lived there and guessing Alan is out of work after the Sheff Utd thing? I know Alan has been to Withers a few times last season...

So we should miss out on a FANTASTIC loan opportunity so we can sign other players first?

Lansbury was CLASS on loan at norwich last season...they were promoted.

if we have any chance at all of getting them in on loan or to buy at the right price then we should its a no brainer.

Erm, both England U21 internationals...Cork who has played in the Prem and over 50 times for Burnley on loan, and Lansbury who was one of (promoted) Norwich's best players?!
Move on.

I find it exciting we're being linked with players of this magnitude - Maybe we are now becoming a lot bigger club so being linked with these players is a sign of this?

I think we are getting a bit above our station here... maybe as loaners but we won't be signing England U21s outright, we'll do that next year.

Yeh I meant loans - I can't see either joining perm. I don't see why we shouldn't be chasing players like this for loans now. It's GREAT to be Albion right now!

Last time i checked we are a Championship club....the same as Burnley and Norwich(when they've signed these players)

I have no idea what your point is.

Yes, but are there better options to buy? I think you'll find Gus is on my side on this one BTW...

I would be amazed if we got Lansbury. I know for a fact he's very highly rated at Arsenal & Wenger plans on looking at him pre-season for a spot in the first team squad next season. And even if they do loan him out its more likely to be to another prem club.

yes, has said he wants to stay and fight for a place in Arsenal's first team squad. Failing that he'll go back to Norwich on loan so think we can forget about him.
