Sky bet have us as 8-1 favourites to sign Ashley Young during the Jan transfer window.
I wonder how the bookies have come up with this one?
They know we need a diving mate for the Ancient One.
Well Rene would know him well but the rumors, at least on this site, is that he may not be the TYPE of player we would want in terms of his behavior on the pitch. Honestly I have not watched him much since his Villa days. I really liked him there but couldn't say I saw him demonstrating poor antics (cheating) in his playing style.
We will probably be linked with a few of the Man U bench warmer's because of Rene.
Apart from Anderson and Zaha we are also 16/1 second favourites to sign Tom Cleverley
We have a couple of divas we dont want a diver as well.
As long as it is not a deal to take Dembele and P Roberts to ManU !

As future prospects these two are worth £100 mil. Young not worth a toss.

Exactly !
Good player for sure, but I can't stand him.
We had 5 transfer periods being linked with anyone who was ever associated with a club that Jol managed. Now that we have Rene, it'll be the same with Man U.
No thanks. I wouldn't want him in a Fulham shirt.
Although his son plays for the U8's at the club I coach at. It might have it's benefits :54:

He's from Stevenage origionally. His ex Mrs is still in the area and he comes to watch when he can. The team that the lad plays for are a cracking team and Spurs, Chelsea and Arsenal scouts are all over them so I cant see them being around next season
No thanks and anyay we wouldn't pay his over inflated wage demands
cant believe no one wants him. he is 10x the player taarabt is and can actually do something with the ball in the final third. him down the left and ashkan right would be awesome to watch. how many on here would say no to the diving Ronaldo if khan decided to buy him?
At 8/1 I'd say that's far from nailed on and more of a speculative guess.
He would be a good signing IMO, take the diving out of it and look at his play. At a smaller club Watford and Villa he was excellent, going to Man U is hard for a lot of players and he hasn't adjusted, coming to us could be a blessing for both parties.
I will say right now though I do not see it happening. We will be linked with a lot of Man U players due to Rene's former links there
I look at our present squad and when we are linked to players like Young I have to giggle. I know many don't like him but he is a good player. However as we have seen before. If Fulham decide now to spend on wages or fees for these types of player. I would just feel it is all too late. A year ago was the time to rid ourselves of Jol and strengthen the squad. So I doubt Fulham will bother now. Look for a 52 year old Mongolian to come in as reserve Keeper. That will be our transfer policy.
Not sure why he would come here when there would be more attractive suitors available... Unless the only reason is Rene.
It's not even January yet but the silly season has clearly started!
A the beginning of the season I didn't want Khan to come in and fill our squad with massive players because I wanted to keep the club well run etc but I'd kill to have a season without worrying about relegation and maybe, for once, kicking on and making progress.
Young is useless. I wouldn't want him anywhere near the team.
Serial cheat. No, no, no, no. Even if he were as good as he thinks he is, no.
