[Albion] The Official Realistic Transfer Targets Thread

[Is it PotG?]

This.

We could see a very very special player putting the stripes on!

It’s not inconceivable that another former England star could be plying his trade at the Amex come February.

Michael Owen?

Being a world cup year will mean strikers who would ordinarily be happy to sit the rest of the season out will suddenly have an urgency to find a move.

This is a salient point. I'd not be keen on a loan ordinarily in our situation (viz. potential relegation scrap) but that could change if the player needs to perform to force his way into his country's world cup squad. Conversely, if he is a shoo in then no thanks.

Batshuayi would be great imo

Michael Owen?

That’s the rumour my son heard on a bus on the way back from the Amex. Keep it hush though, the club don’t want this leaked.

In a moment of clarity, midway through the last window, I asked:-

'who has actually been signed that could be considered a 'realistic transfer target' '.

At the time (and I don't think it changed much) my answer was Sandros to Everton, for £5m, and I seem to remember a bit of love for Jay Rodriguez.


The moral of the story is...





,,,realistic signings are a bit shite.

and that you should stop asking yourself questions, as this is a one-way route to madness

Christ he must have left really early to hear that rumour.....

Clayton was left out by Monk in early November and don't think has played since

Pulis is on record that the Boro squad is far too big and several players more than West Brom squad he left behind - kind of a big hint he may be looking to move a few on - says he owes it to the chairman not to make any rash player moves in or out for first couple of weeks

We are now in the PL and Boro ain't - in theory we should be able to offer higher wages

We were linked with Ryan Woods at one point weren't we, feel like he'd be a class signing
