Aye would be one of the most baffling signings in EPL history Guy couldn't cut it in the SPL celtic flop Carlton Cole could be set to make a shock return to the English Premier League. The striker is a free agent having returned from an unsuccessful spell in Indonesia and according to the Daily Star, the 33-year-old could be set to be handed a short-term deal with struggling Crystal Palace.

Going into a season with one striker is suicidal. With the amount of money they've made you'd have thought they would try sign another decent striker as the difference between staying in the EPL for another season or being relegated to the Championship where you aren't guaranteed to come straight back up is massive.

Yeah, they may not have been keen to give Frank De Boer anything else to spend since they lost faith in him as early as August, signing Sakho was obviously because he'd been on loan before But if that was the case shows how even more bizarre it is that they kept him on for another couple of weeks Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring in a manager and sack him after 4 games because his new tactics don't "work". He had no time whatsoever to implement his own brand of football. I watched the first half of the game against Burnley and couldn't believe how they didn't score at least 1 goal, they we're by far the better team that day and dominated the match all to be undone by a stupid failed back pass from one of their players.

King_gazza 1,065 Posted January 2, 2018 Author Share Posted January 2, 2018 Quote LIVERPOOL and Barcelona are set to be snubbed by Leon Goretzka, who has reportedly chosen to join Bayern Munich. Bayern look to have beaten Barcelona and Liverpool to Leon Goretzka That is according to reports in Spain, which claim Schalke star Goretzka wants to stay in Germany. Both Barcelona and Liverpool are keen on Goretzka, who is seen as one of the best value-for-money wingers in world football. His contract at Schalke expires in the summer, meaning he can sign a pre-contract agreement with a foreign club ahead of a free transfer. He could also be sold by Schalke for as little as £20million next month. Would be a great signing for any of those teams for that price or even in the summer on a free.

Captain Hilts 12,819 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Barkley to Chelsea for £15m. Seems awfully low for this day and age. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Specky Forum Organiser 64,539 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I dont rate him one bit but Chelsea genuinely are the best club on the planet at transfers. Were close to getting him for £35m a few months ago, he hasn't kicked a ball in that time and are now getting him for £20m less. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
