Why would Marshall go to Liverpool and be back up?

Why would Marshall go to Liverpool and be back up?

1. One of the standout keepers in the league this season, maybe he backs himself to fight Mignolet for his spot?
2. Champions League vs Championship
3. Cardiff are my 2nd team and I want them to succeed, but with Vincent Tan at the helm I can't see them progressing for the foreseeable future.

It's not like Liverpool and Cardiff are his only options though. I reckon every club outside the big 7 would sign him, aside from maybe Stoke, Newcastle and Swansea.

If Schemichel can't agree terms, I'd love him at Leicester.

 

[Sheeds]

Sounds like we are after Hoffenheim striker Roberto Firmino and are readying a £15m bid.

I like. 3 shiny new strikers in our squad would be awesome.

So you can send Lukaku to Everton at a reasonable price.

We probably would if you guys sent Barkley back the other way.

 

[Jatz]

That's not a bad deal for Everton in all honesty. Lukaku will be a beast and Everton won't hold on to Barkley forever.

Spurs should do everything to prise Rafa away from Napoli, Chelsea wouldn't have finished trophyless is they had kept Rafa.
Criminally underated by most in England.

 

[Magma]

firmino is as much of a striker as oscar is.

lol

32 games 9 goals 10 assists playing from the wing/wide forward position.

Had a good loan in Spain before that too. Named in the provisional Costa Rica squad for the WC and should make the final 23 man cut.

Pretty handy season! Does he have a long term future at the Emirates do you think?

If I had the choice, I'd much prefer we try and buy players but given the shrewdness of Ashley, we may just look at more loans instead.

Milang_Panthers we're being linked to Speroni. Would be decent back up/competition for McGregor I think, and it comes because you guys are apparently chasing Ruddy.

Is Harper hanging around SM?

Not too sure. I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't to be honest, but we might be able to keep him on in a coaching position, although I wouldn't be surprised if he wanted to go back to you guys.

Well if the talk of you looking at Speroni is true (or another GK), it probably means Harps would have less chances next season. Given his age, he might very well go off looking for first team football somewhere else (maybe in the lower leagues). He'd be a great coach I reckon, utter professional and long career in the top flight. Would have him back in a heartbeat - would probably be a handy addition to the Hull backroom too I would have thought.

His interviews pre- and post-match have always struck me as very well spoken, and he seems to already have a bit of a coaching mentality already, so would be interesting.

Jakupovic didn't look too bad against United either, so I think he may give Bruce something to think about in that regard.

That's what I was thinking, from what I've seen of him he looks more like a #10 who can chip in and play as a false 9 if required rather than an out and out striker. Crazy goalscoring record in Bundesliga this season (16 goals and 12 assists), Liverpool were rumoured to be interested in him a few months ago but it looks as though we've gone for Lallana instead.

Thats disappointing, can he play up top as a 2nd striker?

Has fantastic numbers though.

Lukaku will be wanting CL football one would think.

The 3rd being? Lukaku?

No doubt

 

[chef]

Im hoping so, anyone but Torres.

Got a feeling he'll be sold though, which is disappointing. But Costa's the one I want to lead our line next season and that looks like happening

 

[Jatz]

Why would you sell Lukaku? It's crazy talk. The guy has his whole career ahead of him and he'll only get better.

If he does go, Chelsea would have to put some kind of buy back clause in the sale.

He got a work permit last season but was still sent out on loan.

I would like to see him come into the squad or be loaned in the Premier league somewhere. If neither of those happen, he'll be 22, then he'll be sold by seasons end.

I think it has something to do with Lukaku not wanting to be 2nd, 3rd in line. And to be fair to him, he could probably lead the Chelsea line.
