    Peter crouch has retired wonder if we could try get a u turn he’s only 38/39 plenty of life in the old dog still

    No cuz, our criteria is firstly that he needs to be well past it, but also he needs to be out of shape too. He possibly isn’t the latter (yet). We should wait till he’s put on a few pounds and then yes, he should tick all our boxes.

    The Haller rumours are gathering momentum, just spoken to a friend of mine in Germany he said Haller carried Eintracht harder than Jovic did. He said it was more notable when Haller wasn't playing than when Jovic wasn't. Said it would be a massive coup for us to get him and thinks he will do a lot better than Jovic in a premier league setting.

    Don’t do this to us, YeOld. It’s the hope that kills you..
  • YeoldhammerYeoldhammer
    Make that 2 different people from Germany who have pretty much said the same thing lol. Said he's on a massive upward trajectory a better build than Jovic for the prem. Not the best with his feet but incredible in the air and is great at making space for himself and other players.

    He will want European football won’t he?

    I know we are going through Brexit but isn't England in Europe so he would be getting " European" football? :whistle:

    When we do sign someone would one of you lovely folks put a link up to his wiki page? My thumb is starting to lose it’s fingerprints.

    I’m sorry, I know some people won’t agree, but Fabian Delph at £8m is fantastic business that we should be all over.

    I think we’ve got enough midfielders and then some.

  • alderzalderz
    I don’t, personally.

    We are one injury away from Sanchez starting in midfield. We are one Obiang sale away from relying on Jack Wilshere to stay fit all season.

    You say Haller and i say goodbye :quaver: :yercoat:

    £8m is a good price, but Delph hasn't got the greatest injury record himself. But I would absolutely have him over Sanchez and Obiang.

    We do need another CM for the reasons you've said, but I expect if we get one we won't be paying any fee for him.

    The one to go for in that position is Kalvin Phillips of Leeds but they apparently want close to £30m for him
