So who will be leaving before the transfer window opportunity closes, I can see either Kilgallon or Beevers getting caught up in the Centre-Half merry go round that will follow Lescott moving to Man City. I can also see Simek leaving Hillsborough to help balance the books.

Anyone else care to speculate from either camp?

Laws stated in the star on Friday ,that there is a good chance players will be leaving Hillsbro on loan this week -either a defender or striker -but woulndt be drawn on weather that striker is Jeffers

i cant see us selling both beevers and simek, unless its loan deals for either 1 or both of them. i hope jeffers goes on loan somewhere, anywhere please wednesday. not sure who united will lose, maybe sharpe but other than that i'm not sure

Would expect that to be Jeffers, if it is a loan deal I'd guess on Simek which is a shame as I think he is a better player than Buxton.

I can see Beevers getting caught up in this Lescott deal, Everton will replace him with either wheater or Kilgallon and then the team who sell to everton may come in from Beevers.

Also, money seems topical at the moment and he may bring a few quid in.

Beevers has still got a lot to learn before he's ready for the premiership.

I think the trouble is that if you sell Simek now you'd probably only get £300,000 - £500,000 at the most and a couple of seasons ago he was being valued much higher. It'd be worth letting him have a run in the team first, or letting him go out on loan, and prove himself before selling.

I can't see Everton wanting Beevers, either. But your point about him replacing someone else could be true.

I think for United it has got to be Sharp on the way out, but I'm not sure there are any teams who can afford him that are interested.

Simek needs games and i can both see him going and would back that idea maybe just for a month with a 3 month extension possible, please god let jeffers go out on loan or anything to get him out of Hillsborough i dont think we'll get any money for him but if we can save 8k a week on wages (£400k a year) then it will make Strafford's job a lot easier and less stressfull leaving him to concentrate on the investment search.

Jeffers gone or not doesn't warrent just how poor he's been, he's one of the worse signings ive ever seen Wednesday make.
not even once has he gone on a decent scoring run all
the time hes been here.

simek was arguably our best defender before he got injured for that long period. U.S.A, U.S.A, U.S.A! hes a quality player and to lose him would be a big mistake

Yes at one point he was doing my nut in getting injured all the time but he's done well when he has come in, in recent game's and i can't really see Frankie going surely not, Hind's seem's to have been out of favour big time with Laws recently so i wouldn't be surprised if it was him, i can see Boden going on loan aswell.

Can't see Kilgallon leaving (unless a Spurs-style too good to turn down offer is received - and even then only if a replacement is in place). Sharp maybe, are Donny still after a striker?

As for the owls, it's odd to hear Hinds, Beevers or Simek even being linked on here as possible loans/sales, all three have been mentioned at various times on here as very important to the owls defence - always worth having a bit of extra depth in cover if possible.

Now Clarke and Sodje are fit, and you still have FJ and Tudgay plus the loan player, you shouldn't really need another striker, 5 is more than enough?

Jeffers , simek i think will leave or be loaned out.
I think sharp will be off as well maybe loaned at first.

hinds, beevers and simek are very good players and it is always good to have depth but last game laws had to leave beevers and simek out of the squad altogether so i think sending maybe beevers out on loan for a while might be best, if wood leaves at the end of the season then we'll have a replacement in beevers. don't think it would be a good ide to sell either though.
as for the strikers, yes sodje is fit but for how many games? no one knows, he was fit at the start of the season but never made the barnsley game. clarke hasn't fully shown he is good enough to be in the first team and jeffers is useless, probably be injured in a couple of games time anyway. so if we can ship jeffers out on a free or loan if need be and 1 defender then that should be ok for the time being

killa won't leave united this year- its too late for us to replace him and the squad isn't big enough to cope without getting someone in.

I don't know about players but I do think wednesday may struggle to keep laws this season. H e must be their most valuable transfer asset.

He'll leave for free next summer then!!

If we get a bid of around £3m i fear Killa will be off.

That could all depend on which league we're in next summer.

Don't be daft, the Blades board won't take a risk like that (i.e. James Beattie), they'll snap off the hands of the highest bidder and tell us it was good business.

Probably right, lets hope our good start encourages him to sign a new contract.

Well Lescott is having his medical at Man City today ,so Everton are now hunting for a centre Half . Will they go for Kilgallon ? who knows

I find the Lescott one very odd, I don't think he is that good and they are paying around 20 million.

I can see Everton going for Kilgallon to replace him if they have got over the Naughton affair.

i can see them going in for upson - they've not got a big squad and im not sure if moyes will take the risk on an unproven prem player ... maybe west ham will have a go at killgallon tho

There'll be plenty of clubs after Killa I fear and even the most nominal bid might be enough to tempt our board. I'd be surprised if he's still a Blade come Sept. :(

i think there will be interest from mid table teams - cant see many teams in the top 6/7/8 though

he took a gamble on Jagielka

he took a gamble on Jagielka

true, and was willing to do so on naughton before the spurs intervention ... i guess that was a stupid point in hindsight!!

he took a gamble on Jagielka

Typical throwaway comment from you and shows what you know Jags had been watched by Everton for the season before and the season we were in the prem
Get your facts right before sprouting drivel

he took a gamble on Jagielka

Jagielka was widely reported to be one of the stars of the Premier League while we were playing there. He was impressing pundits and reporters week after week, even if the team wasn't. It was clear he was a Premier League player. He was by far the best player at United and was proving that he could comfortably compete at that level. He was also a snip at £4m. Where was the gamble?

if i remember rightly, jags was player of the season at everton last season

To be fair every transfer is a gamble, it's just less of a gamble if you've been able to do proper research before paying the money.

The alternative is Ryan France, send a scout up and then sign him up only to drop him after two games because he's actually worse than what you've already got.

I think he was only signed to pee-off people like you, to be honest! I thought he was a bad signing and he can warm the bench all season for me. We should be stealing from bigger clubs! :hihi:

Now deep breath... and let it go. :D

Exactly my point, not particularly bright by your manager though and for the record I hope Blackwell buys another 10 players like him if they all turn out to be such a success.

Sounded like he came on and looked ok on Saturday, a couple of good runs towards the end. If we're going to write off signings after their first game, then Purse would already have left Hillsborough...

France is and always was a squad player, able to come in and do a job when needed. To be expecting more than that is odd, really...

I think Man City have signed Lescott and will be looking for someone else most likely a Defender I don't think Bevers will go.

I doubt that Beevers would be on the radar for any of the top half PL clubs - not even a regular starter for the owls any more!

Who's a failure? France came on against leicester and caused havoc.
Don't be too quick to right people off, or is it green eyes.

Man City signed Lescott this morning, and im 90% sure that all our defenders are free from bid's from the Premiership club's which are currently struggling defenders wise.
I doubt there's many fan's are wanting a centre back what can't even get in a championship side ie "Beevers".

Well what would you suggest that the united board does, if he is refusing to sign a new contract do you think they should just do nothing and let possibly the best central december in the championship leave on a free transfer? Or should they get some money for him while they can?

how much do u reckon someone would offer for him? and do you have enough cover in that area or would you have to buy to replace him? (any more kyle naughton's (but central) type players waitin in the wings)

This is it, what to do for the best.

Many thought we'd have gone up if we'd have held onto James Beattie.

Do we take a risk and hold onto Killa and risk losing him for nothing at the end of the season or do we keep the best defender in the division in the hope we get promotion and convince him to sign when we can offer him higher wages?

Anyway those in the know are reporting Killa will sign a new 4yr contract by the end of the week. Not that contracts mean a great deal to the club but at least if covers us financially if he does decide his career lies away from the Lane in the future.

£4m is a price been mentioned on more than one occassion which considering his contract is up at the end of the season is a more than reasonable price.

No Kyle Naughton or Kyle Walker types coming through at the moment (though Connor Brown is being talked of very highly in some quarters he is only 17yrs old and will no doubt be loaned out soon enough), i think we'd have to look elsewhere for a replacement, i personally would take a punt on Spurr or Beevers if they were available for about a million? Both are left footed centre backs aren't they?

Alternatively i've always liked St Ledger from Preston who i think would be available at a good price.

i don't think there is enough time to get a replacement in so that means covering it for the squad- which basically means walker or bromby- i don't think we have a squad big enough to cope so it has to be a firm no to anyone who comes calling.
