Summer Transfer Window 2017

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Anyone else think Austin would be a good and realistic replacement for Rom? Big, strong, holds the ball up and can finish. Him and someone like Batshuyai or Martial and I'll be happy with that.

The usual suspects on here would revolt if we went for Austin

Let's face it, we CAN'T replace Lukaku, so we need to use the money to buy 2-3 decent players and hope between them they can fill the gap that he leaves

I'm thinking Mata, Rondon and somebody else

a good temporary replacement would be Modeste from koln. he's getting on a bit (28) but he's strong and clinical. 20-25 mil maybe

Going to have some warchest when Lukaku and Barkley leave.

 

[Jim White]

Massive summer now that we're definitely going to have to replace Lukaku.

These are the suggestions to replace Lukaku? Seriously lads? Austin and Rondon?

 

[Jim White]

I think we'll go for Troy Deeney. Steve Walsh was desperate to sign him for Leicester.

No one signing we could make could possibly replace Lukaku

What we need to do is find 2-3 players who can get in the same ball park as him

Rondon is nowhere near good enough for us mate. Dembele possibly but not at the ludicrous prices quoted.

He's not going for anything close to those prices

Anything above 15 Million for Celtic would be a huge windfall

id take the Belgian from Chelsea, his stats were pretty good before Chelsea.

Mate those lads will be underwhelming (Mata aside).

Rashford, Ienaacho, Lacazette, Martial would be far better. That's just off the top of my head.

 

[jonnyboy316]

I would go ienacho and Dembele. Certainly not Rooney, Austin, Rondon, Troy Deeney

I agree, but not if Celtic want 50 million.

I think Big Jorgensen from Feyenoord is a knocker.

He took Pelle from Feyenoord, another big bustling old fashioned centre forward type.
