Same info as mine (768) and correct as we will most likely be up against teams like Bournemouth, Villa and others

On the basis that we had agreed a wages figure with him last summer just hope we can pull this off

The story says he played a few games, went on loan, did not play and now down the list at Benfica. Was off to Wigan...now Burnley interested at £25m

Wigan pay £2.50 with Benfica glad to get shut, then we are ready to pay £25m!!!
Nah! Just made up.

Sunderland signed the new Defoe...our man Chakwana.

I hope we have not let a star man go just because someone didn't like him.

Having read that blog the other day by the QPR coach and how Rigg and his mates made so many mon football based decisions....I hope we have not succumbed.

I hope you’re right.
He'll improve the squad if we can get him and then a back up left back for me would be the next priority, someone who could come in if Taylor got injured or lost form.

Your obsession with Rigg is like your goalkeeping view. You seem to have no idea what Rigg's job is either.

Chakwana was released by Steve Stone

If this is the case I would expect it'll gather pace and be common knowledge within the next 24 hours or so as Jay will want and need to start talking to interested clubs. Let's hope your 'contacts' come good.....

Crouch out and Jay in, for what - £5 mil? Would be a good swap and would provide solid competition between Wood, Barnes, Vydra and Jay. I'd be happy with that for this coming season.

Central Midfield for me is next priority though. Someone who can help to run the game and make things happen.

Hello CT.
No obsession. Just referencing that worrying blog, which revealed worrying information.

I did not write that Mr R had let Chakwana go, either. The article, I read, about Chakeana, made it clear that Mr S had let him go.

I merely linked the two and posed the Q.

I am an expert on goalkeepers, everyone knows that.

Yes someone who can keep possession in the middle a bit better. Fingers crossed.

I'd be happy with Jay as the only new striker in and Crouch out; Jay is a quality player and would give his whole for Burnley. It would also add more spice to the matches with beloved Brighton.

Nixon has tweeted he has stories on a list of clubs tomorrow, including Burnley and West Brom.

As I have just tweeted, might be a case of 2+2=5, but may not be coincidental with the rumours of us having met his release clause bubbling on here.

I think you can as squad players. Jay can be a bench player and fight for a starting place. Crouch is unique in his height, but that's not worth taking a place on the bench, unless you have nobody better. If Jay signed, we would have better.

SD won't break up the Wood-Barnes partnership until something happens which forces his hand. We've seen this time and time again and he'd be correct imo to do so in this instance.

Doubt it will be ground breaking news. Probably we are interested in Jay Rod but can’t agree a fee. He’s just trying to get people to read his rag.

There's no fee to agree really as he has a release clause. Pay it and get him - don't pay it and don't get him.

Potentially off the left, where I feel he has historically performed best?

Off the left, as in, instead of McNeil?

Any good manager would never suddenly forget the inform strike-force he had last season and bring a new signing straight into the team and drop one of his main men from last season. It's not going to happen, unless Wood/Barnes were to get injured prior to the first game. If Jay does join us - and let's be fair, nothing is certain here, he'll be benched and made to work for his place - and rightly so. That's how it should work.

Jay would give us lots of options. He can play up top on his own, in a 2, in the hole and in a front 3 off either side
I think he could also play wide eg where Hendrick has been playing.

He's the perfect signing subject to medical and for £5m would be a bargin.

As per last week , we get inside info from the sources, he picks up on it 3 days later saying its breaking.

Sadly its nothing we haven't already discussed.

Maupay could have well looked at us and not fancied his chances of playing regular football. Vydra is better and he's still waiting his turn.

Not sure where this £5 has come from, the reported clause is £10m in two payments of £5m.

That was my question. Was it a new man just deciding to dispense with his services, or was his card long marked?

Seems odd that he is punching way above and then falls straight off the precipice.

Still a bargain, and the saving from last year to this, is more than we would have written off in the first year, so cheaper than we were committed to previously.

Stone explained the decisions at the time. It was touch & go a year earlier whether he got a deal but a late run of form got it for him. I wasn’t surprised when he was released.

Would be a good signing, but unlikely now Lampard has gone in there.

Can’t see Chelsea selling Tomori given the embargo and the Lampard link from derby. But surely this would see the sale of Gibson which has been rumoured often this summer.
