Basel striker Breel Embolo for £10m, sounds like we can afford to ?

[silverbaggie]

Yes but just guess who else is interested in him!!!

Can't blame big Sam for this one.

Isn't it time that the Club that single handed won the World Cup for England had their own scouting system???

[Worldclassalbion]

Podolski to Galatasary for 2.8m !!! How can they get him so cheap??? That has got to be one of the bargains of the window.

Probably on £90-100,000 a week. Still surprised no one come in for him in the Premier League 

Tom, I doubt that mate, he has slipped down the pecking order of late in the German team however with this 'New Owner' maybe they should show a statement of intent UNLESS its the Greek government who have purchased us

West Brom expect to land one of their major transfer targets this week after agreeing a fee for QPR winger Matt Phillips.
Baggies boss Tony Pulis missed out on Demba Ba  to Shanghai Shenhua last month as they blew  the Premier League club out of the water by giving the striker more than £100,000 -a-week.

But frustrated  Albion have now dug deep to out-bid Aston Villa , Leicester and Crystal Palace for Rangers’ winger Phillips.


Hawthorns officials aim to complete the transfer this week in a lucrative deal after offering more than Phillips' expected £7million valuation.

Phillips, 24, impressed last term with three goals and eight assists despite the Loftus Road outfit being relegated.

If we get Phillips is that a good deal? QPR seem to be wanting around £10M there must be much better players abroad for that sort of money. We look very limited in the market with Tony Pulis in charge that isn't a dig at the fella he's doing a good job but you always pay a premium for players based in the UK and Pulis always looks reluctant to sign players from abroad
Don't get me wrong I wouldn't mind Phillips but not at the sort of price been suggested by QPR

I agree to some extent, but buying a player who is proven in the PL is much less of a risk than spending perhaps half the fee but ending up with a player who can't to it in our league. I would've thought that our signings last summer would go a long way in supporting that point! Paying a larger fee at least reduces the risk in these cases....

Have no idea who he is mind.

Pléa is very highly rated in France and has really blossomed in the past year. He can play on the right wing, which is his main position, and up front. He was used as a striker last season due to Nice's only proper striker Cvitanich being injured for most of the season.
