Speculation The Crazy Stupid Premier League Rumours Thread

[Graz]

Daily Mail reporting Frazier Campbell is on his way. Apparently he's turned down Palace and we've upped our offer.

Do you think he's incapable of multi-tasking?

Is he a woman?

 

[DillyDing22]

After watching the vid, I think we're getting a bargain.

I do have to agree though, the video changed my mind a little.

Really?!! Wow !!

 

[Borderfox]

I would guess that Palace offered him less than we did.

Ulloua in most morning papers but Cmpbell speculation is quiet, probably as he often changes his mind. I doubt we would announce signings of 2 high profile players on same day, my guess is Monday and Tuesday

These two would be great and mean we Are set for attacking players. Really short at the back though. Left back centre back and holding midfielder. Unless Cain, Sesay, Taft etc are going to get elevated....

Taft signed for Burton after he wasn't offered a new contract.

Extremely unlikely. Why wouldn't he just prefer one club over another?

How are we short at centre back? - Morgan, Wasilewski, Moore, Upson. Unless NP plans to play 3 centre backs I think we're covered.

Tbh i would like to see another centre back come in as well. Preferably someone 25-27 who may not know the English game but has good potential to be a leader for when Wes is getting on a bit. Doesn't necessarily have to play every game this season.

Someone like Marcos Rojo. Though I'm not suggesting we will get him.

How long before Wasilewski gets his first suspension?

Exactly. All pretty slow by prem standards and aged 31, 33,35 and 22. We need another GOOD, not squad, centre half. I'd rather us spend a few million on that than Campbell.

I wouldn't. You need to score goals in the Prem to survive. The teams that have a reasonable defence but don't score enough goals get relegated. If Campbell does come here it won't be for a few million anyway.

Been told today Ulloa is having his medical tomorrow. Some aspects of his contract still to be sorted but should be straight forward.#lcfc

Also states that Campbell is possible - still open but stalling over wages.

 

[ThaiSweetChilli]

The Mirror reports again about Slimani as a £7m signing, can't see it happening, unless Campbell's move doesn't materialise, and even then not sure it would go through. Also links Chris Wood to Wolves for £2m.

[dpjfox]

Surprised by lack of defender transfer rumours

 

[Matt_B]

Is it just me, or is anyone else surprised or worried about the lack of rumours linking us to defenders?

 

[dpjfox]

we need a pacey centre back imo

 

[LoopisDeLupis]

Apparently O'Grady is joining Brighton, which would of course leave Ulloa free to become a Fox
