    Don't need him. We already have Hernandez but we cant get the ball to him so why would we get the ball to Zlatan?

    Man Utd at home - we can all guess the script...

    Yes barracks a diving header top corner wrong net lol

    I’d be over the moon if we got Redmond from Southampton in the summer.

    Zlatan scored a cracker on his debut for LA today and then the winner
  • Slaven_Cups_His_BeardSlaven_Cups_His_Beard
    Back to Zaha think he’s done well, worry about Byrams injury record and progress, but the real boost has been Ogbonna, it wasn’t that long ago some wanted him dropped.

    Fernandes never looked like he’d been out so long and did very well
  • KuchinghammerKuchinghammer
    I hope Zaba doesn't think he's Zaha, and start diving all over the place... ;wink

    I wouldn’t mind Ward-Prowse (?sp)

    Good shout

    Now that Moyes has converted Arnie to a striker, I think we have our 20 goal 15 goal-a-season striker that we have been looking for for so long.

    Takes the pressure off a bit.

    Dee - no, Zaha joined Palace when he was 12, grew up in Thornton Heath. I was impressed with his consistency yesterday, he even fell over while challenging Oxlade-Chamberlain in the build up to Salah's goal
  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    I think Dee meant Ward-Prowse?
  • ASLEFshruggedASLEFshrugged
    Ward-Prowse joined Saints when he was 8 although apparently he grew up a Pompey fan. That can't have been easy.....
  • alderzalderz
    I've been a fan of Ward-Prowse since he got into their team the year we both came up. He is a fantastic passer and crosser of the ball, excellent from set pieces and works as hard as anyone.

    He's not got masses of pace, but he's extremely versatile - MC, AM, RW and started as a RB.

    Always odd buying from teams going down, on the one hand they have generally been very poor that season...like Redmond hasn't got a single goal....but they are still good players

    Personally of the current bottom 3 you gotta be looking at Shaquiri, Butland, Evans, Romeu, Bertrand and Allen

    Think all 6 of those could get into our first XI, although can imagine there will be a good lot of competition

    Think there a good few decisions to be made in the summer with a few areas in need of an upgrade/cover, but primary focus should be on GK and DM imo

    Interesting to see how Mario performs these last few games, he was great against Southampton but hasn't done it very often (who has tho) and will cost a fairly big chunk of our budget whether we have a loan-to-buy deal or not

    I agree though MrsGrey that Arnie has become our 15 goal striker thanks to Moyes, so thats a little relieving

    In spite of a supposed overhaul of our transfer methods we still can’t escape the fact that our owners won’t be able or perhaps willing to put their hands in their pockets for players who are a marked step up. We might get one £30m perhaps, but that will only get you someone like a deeney or Cairney these days. With this in mind, I don’t think it is at all a bad idea to pick off a player or two from a club Southampton if they go down. After all they are a club which doesn’t mind selling...

    We seem to be doing some business.. I don't really follow the Championship, anyone with an opinion on these two?

    Are they PL 11 or squad fillers?

    --
    According to the very reliable source @ExWHUemployee we are very close to dealing deals for both Tom Cairney and Ryan Fredericks from Fulham who have been selected for the championship team of the season
  • baracks_a_hammerbaracks_a_hammer
    Just our luck that we look to sign the “other” Fulham Ryan
  • PrestonHammerPrestonHammer
    Well if they get promoted, I can't see Fulham selling both of them.
  • baracks_a_hammerbaracks_a_hammer
    My previous comment was a little tongue in cheek. Looking to sign better players from the top end of the champ would seem to be on paper a potentially good thing
  • YeoldhammerYeoldhammer
    and if Fulham go up and we get relegated. Heresay.
  • PrestonHammerPrestonHammer
    I started writing that before your comment baracks. I meant I can't see Fulham selling both Fredericks or Cairney.

    The Standard says we are NOT interested in Fedor Smolov although no source for the info

    Meanwhile the Newcastle Evening Chronicle reckons Hernandez might be going there in the summer. Part-ex for Aleksandar Mitrovic, maybe?
  • baracks_a_hammerbaracks_a_hammer
    Should we actually be paying much heed to any transfer rumour at the moment given that the “overhaul” of our recruitment methods including a new director of recruitment hasn’t even happened yet
  • grey_til_I_dyegrey_til_I_dye
    You had me at

    Hernandez for Mitrovic - NO - Come on!
  • ASLEFshruggedASLEFshrugged
    Allegedly Moyes was scouting Mitrovic, Cairney and Fredericks when he was at Fulham on Tuesday

    8 goals in 11 games for Fulham, the lad seems to have found his shooting boots

    IF we could sort out his disciplinary problems, 21 games missed through suspensions & counting, he could be worth having but at the cost of Javier? ;hmm He seems to be a bit of a hot head and has been substituted in the past to avoid being sent off remember he got a three game ban on video evidence for elbowing Manu earlier this season. We could always swap him for Andy C. ;whistle
  • ASLEFshruggedASLEFshrugged
    It looks as if Arnie is going to be our main striker, Hernandez isn't going to be happy sitting on the bench so if Newcastle come up with a decent offer then it would probably be best to let him move on.

    Otherwise we could end up with Sakho Part 2

    Yeah, I'm sure Rafa would bite our hand off if we offered him AC.......
