I've always assumed we'd keep him - but would be slightly disappointed if we did. I think he can do a job from the bench & offer depth to the squad, but with our scouting & black-box I would've liked to have thought we could've found better.

Cabaye saying he's open to working with Pardew again. http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11706/9880321/psgs-yohan-cabaye-open-to-rendezvous-with-alan-pardew-at-crystal-palace.

Stoke still in pole position http://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/2892/transfer-zone/2015/06/09/12568092/stoke-closest-to-cedric-deal-despite-southampton-reports

Good luck to the kid http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/football/nonleague/13321473._/? Hope he makes it.

Wouldn't take anything Metro reports as gospel. I think he's much more likely to stay in Spain.

Yeah, looks like a right-winger who cuts in onto his left foot.

Ah OK - Former Chelsea player wasn't he?

* Double post

Not sure - where'd you hear this? (Hope it's Hakan Calhanoglu)

Is 'arry breaking out transfer scoops?! @Redknapp: Heard Swansea are close to signing Andre Ayew from Marseille. He's on the way there with his agent Mark Mackay to do the deal. Good player.

Impressive

Think we were linked with him before. Maybe last summer?

This one is going to rumble on... http://m.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/13316572._/?ref=mac

Tony Fernandes will probably tweet regular updates.

We need an audit of ITK credentials for Shance.

Yeah, Les Reed said in an interview a little while ago that we needed a right-back to compete with Clyney anyway so lets get one in.

This is true, this is why I'm so keen on the Austin deal because with europe as well, we are definitely going to switch people around. I always hoped Sam Gallagher would step up next year to compete & be 3rd choice. Signing a Okaka might scupper that. Lets be honest though, that Sampdoria chap could be meeting anyone - Watford probably in for him.

Let's hope we get Austin instead. Wonder if we can sneak Osvaldo into his suitcase without him knowing?

Don't know much about either. Quick wiki check shows Okaka far from prolific.

Toby probably worth whatever we pay. He was great for us. Yeah, Wilson's stuff is normally well sourced. Found it interesting that the echo seem to be fed stuff as well now which is good because last summer pretty much nothing was coming out of the club officially it seemed.
