im guessing when people are saying Honda they mean - Keisuke Honda from russia? if so he is worth about 18m what make me think the only guy we can afford is Takuya Honda who plays in japan who is worth about 150k

Isn't his contract up soon?

Isn't his contract up soon?

Six months remaining, according to transfermarkt.

Out of contract in 6 months

 

[LocalNative]

Forgot about him too.

He'd be decent for us. Not sure how much they'd want for him though.

Yeah and a completely different kinda striker for us. Very small and quick, almost like Andy Johnson (but better). Can't imagine he'd demand over £10m with PSG likely to strengthen the attack this summer.

Moses
Bent
McCarthy

......................sounds a bit tarantino biblical

 

[ijjysmith]

Six months remaining, according to transfermarkt.

No idea if that's true but if it is, then he won't be £18m.

 

[toffee-boy]

if its 6 months left im guessing you could knock 5 mil off dont know how it works from there, im guessing its pretty much about personal terms and agent fee's

 

[Pabbers]

Forgot all about him. Is he still looking good?

Think he had a couple of injuries last season, but still scored 14 in 21 games.

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Honda has said he's going apparently so if that's the case then they wont let him leave for free. They'd probably take £5m if it was on the table.

I'd love Honda here. With his contract running out though, there will be a host of sides after him. I fear that one will come down to who offers the best wages. In an ideal world, with us keeping Fellaini, imagine this midfield:

Fellaini Gibson

Mirallas Honda Pienaar​

 

[TippEverton]

Baines.
Fellaini.
Some class striker, maybe Negredo or Bony.

 

[toffee-boy]

I think we need to start looking to replace Pienaar he is getting on a little but would change him for the same type of player a younger pienaar

 

[Silentwitness]

I'll do this differently and outline positions i think we need someone in...

1) Striker - Benteke/Lukaku/Rhodes/Bony: All of these players would be excellent signings but they'd all probably be out of our reach unless Chelsea do decide on letting Lukaku go back out on loan. I'm fairly sure they stated that they'd keep him but if they buy someone and don't end up selling Torres they might let him out again.
2) CM - Hughes/Torres/ McCarthy/Fer - Hughes/Torres/McCarthy all look to be players that can go on to be class acts, i've seen a few games of each and in most of them it was an example of each player controlling the game and showing great pieces of cutting edge play. As with Barkley/Kovacic they have moments where they make the wrong decision but they're very young and show intent to play the killer pass. Promising. Torres would probably be out of our reach too.
3) R/LW - Zaha/Ince/Deulofeu -I think that Zaha/Deulofeu could be allowed out on loan next season. Depending on how Zaha does he might be let go in January to get more PL experience. Ince could be a great player to take a punt on as he performed very well for Blackpool in a side that like to attack, much like Martinez.

I suppose with some i may be living in Gaga land but it's a credit to scouts who can find a gem for a cheap price. Maybe Eikrem from Molde would be worth a punt too. They're dwindling right now in the Noggie league aren't they? I thought he might have left earlier.

 

[VentureBrosEFC]

For me its gotta be a few people mentioned already.

Fer
Chadli (been saying we should sign him for a while)
Moses (Don't think, if we play with 1 ST we should be giving up on Jelavic til January)

Some more affordable options if we don't sell Felli

Banega (Valencia need to sell)
Sarabia (Everyone in Spain will sell)
Benat (More costly than the other 2 but also the most quality of the 3)
