Honey Honey 3,767 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Was the Championship trophy what Mike Ashley was referring to when he said he wouldn't sell until we won something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honey Honey 3,767 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 This might explain the rumour that Lee Charnley put the Tap-in Abraham loan on hold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toony 95 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Probably explains why it's so quiet on the transfer front too. Whatever happens it's important that this doesn't piss Rafa off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafa Beneathus 288 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Not good news. It'll go on for weeks, we won't sign anyone, Rafa will leave as it is announced that it fell through late August. We will appoint David Moyes and be relegated next season. Seriously as much as I hate Ashley I would rather we invested around £70 Million and built something.

Dr. Gonzo 8,159 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Give Rafa the budget he always wanted at Liverpool. He'd probably be in the same boat as missing most (or all) of his top targets without CL football... But I think a manager with the pedigree of Rafa, at a club like Newcastle (and with fans that appreciate him), with the ability to control who he signs and with a big budget.... those all sound like things that would add another quality team in the league.

Honey Honey 3,767 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 The word is Ashley would sell a % of the club in return for large investment in transfers. Respect if true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope that's true but it's a bit of a worry at the moment. We need to be able to crack on with transfers as quickly as possible and links with Tammy Abraham and Jota are hardly inspiring.

Many players who have been Premier League proven have flopped at clubs. Robbie Keane at Liverpool is a prime example. And I don't mean to be biased, but Mahrez and Kante barely had any experience in a top division, let alone Premier League, and look how they turned out.

Honey Honey 3,767 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 I'd like to sign some foreigner I've never heard of for a lot of money. That would inspire me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest every team below Southampton were so poor last season being 'Premier League proven' doesn't sound inspiring any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honey Honey 3,767 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 If players like Delph are available I would rather give them a shot because probability suggests they can be better than what most teams have in the bottom half have. Signing championship players is ok to an extent but they might not be any better than what Burnley have got. But I have my heart set on la liga signings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honey Honey 3,767 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 According to the Chronicle transfers will not be effected by any takeover. There are 2 Chinese investors based in Shenzhen who have enquired about the club and there is also interest from the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
