Transfer Speculation Thread 2014/15

[Prof Heinz Wolff]

Is that the best picture they could get of him ?

What is that guy doing to him ?

 

[Jinky]

Certainly one out of left-field. No idea. Obviously first port of call is Wikipedia.

La Parra is known for exceptionally impressive technique and ball control, as well as his pace.

and obligatory YouTube video -

He looks like the cat from red dwarf. I like him.

 

[Lycan]

Awesome name at the very least.

sc Heerenveen are a good side and finished 5th in the Eredivisie this year and he seems to have been a regular for them.

No news on Cassidy yet?

 

[andyc225]

I can't see Cassidy being offered a new deal. The deadline for the retained list is this Saturday (I think). We'll find out soon enough.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

We have a year's option in the club's favour, I see no point in exercising it. He isn't good enough to play for us and the kind of clubs who might want to sign him won't offer us any money.

 

[Jolemai]

Then surely he would have been released with everyone else? Jackett also gives him a "shout out" in an interview on the Wolves website about Striking Options.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Could be any number of things at work, his agent could be insisting that he's earned a new deal based on X that's he's 'achieved' or what has been promised previously, maybe before Jackett even arrived. It isn't uncommon for players to not be formally released even though their contracts are up. See Ince, Paul, 2003-2006.

 

[andyc225]

Unfortunately for the likes of Cassidy we need to focus our limited resources on players who will make a tangible contribution to our planned promotion campaign. As DW said, he has a one year option but there's no point in activating it. The best thing we can do for Jake is to allow him to find a new club on a permanent basis. It worked for Sam Winnall and I don't see why it couldn't work for him. KJ brought him into the team under trying circumstances as we all know, but he's had enough opportunities to deliver in a gold shirt and not taken any of them. If he can rediscover what made him tick for Tranmere during his first spell I think he'll build a decent career in the lower leagues; for me he doesn't have what it takes to make it where we want to be.

That's a massive shame about James Husband- really wanted him! He'll be playing for England soon!

The BBC story linked is 2 years old

 

[GoldFlagFlyingHigh]

Heard earlier we are interested in Adam Clayton from Huddersfield. Their player of the season, only one year left on his deal. Probably would take a seven figure bid.

 

[Tony Towner]

If that's the ex Leeds guy, he's the sort of the midfielder we could do with, although can we wild with some of his challenges

 

[Tony Towner]

Harry Maguire linked. I think he's decent, but more of a Danny Batth type stopper. Not sure he would start ahead of Batth though and see them as too similar to make an ideal partnership. Nevertheless, I'd be in the favour of this if it happened, but think he'll stay at Sheff U for another year
