The New and Improved Super Duper Transfer Thread Made for Actual Transfer Discussion~!

[Thistle]

Have to agree with Pardew about Arsenal lodging a bid on the day of a game.

Unneccessary.

Gotta play mind games with similar league competition.

Also do people not understand the point of low bids? Obviously clubs don't expect to get a bargain but more to cause unrest with the player. If the player is interested in a move then the official bid will get them thinking and talking to their club and manager which is more likely to force a move. Then by the time they go for a larger, second bid the transfer has a higher chance of happening.

Yeah low bidding always happens.

Low bids are like people going through the denial stage of the 5 stages of grief, you know it's not gonna do the job but you're bidding hoping that it will, until you get to the depression and acceptance stage and just shell out the cash

Or unless you're Wenger, you're forever stuck in an infinite loop of the denial and bargaining stage

What I don't understand is every shitty manager need to come forward and talk about everything in public.

If you don't like the offer ignore it. Don't open your gob and whinge about it to the media.

Rodrigo Moreno Machado(Benfica and Spanish u/21 striker) is apparently of interest now to Chelsea at around €20 million. No longer 'Rooney or bust'. Yay.

Eto'o's agent meeting Chelsea again tomorrow.

Di Marzio says Anzhi want more than the £30m offered by Spurs and Liverpool and want the £5m he got as a signing bonus repaid.

They must be joking expecting Willian to pay back his signing on bonus when it is Anzhi who are wanting to offload star players. Not Willian's fault the owners of the club have lost 241 million euros recently and now need to cut costs.

Theres also talk they may want Eto'o to pay some of his last years wage back(he's been paid £14mil for this season) as he's already been paid his full contract.

The Fail are saying that Willian is in London for a Spurs medical.

 

[DBAH0]

We got linked to Chris Samba in the last 24 Hrs. Wonder how much Anzhi would want for him considering their financial problems actually (they forked out $12.5M quid to take him back from QPR).

 

[Spanish Sahara]

According to Di Marzio Spurs have won the race for Willian, who is in London having a medical

Gareth #Bale very close to @realmadrid: deal with @SpursOfficial for 93€. And #Coentrao probably will join spurs. #footballtransfers

 

[moomba]

I know he hasnt gone yet, but Spurs are providing a great lesson in how to sell a star player and still improve your squad significantly.

Cant see them finishing outside top 4, even without Bale.

not accurate at all really. apart from the greek dude, riise and duff who has been there for years....
berbatov still has plenty of good years left
bent isn't that old
the german rb is young
hangeland and his new defensive partner are both young
they signed taarabt as well

teams not that old.

 

[Magma]

it's actually 93 million pound, as corrected by the guru himself.

the stuff about agencia last night was actual reports FROM august 2nd saying the same deal had been agreed.

there was also stuff about lamela or his agent being in london.

 

[pantskyle]

Big 24hrs then.

Surprised there hasn't been any photos of him published if that's the case.

This time Hernandez + 5,000,001 for Fabregas will get the deal done for sure.

There have from what I can see. On the phone so not sure if shopped or not.

Where? Can't find them anywhere. There were also a few reports of Willian being spotted at Manchester airport yesterday.

 

[moomba]

Actually scrap that. Photos were from 2011.

Well our response is interesting, whether we have any backup, or we're just gonna shrug our shoulders and go, bah we tried, like a loser
