Transfer discussion thread

[RossFC]

Piggie will flop pretty much a given, chel$ki are absolutely shocking with transfers

Higuain is a short loan isn’t it? Or is there a buy clause at the end?

I think he’s fine as a stopgap striker and an improvement on Morata. But you’d expect in the summer they’d sign a long term superstar forward. I think ideally it shouldn’t be a tall target man. Giroud can come off the bench and be that guy.

 

[WealstoneRaider]

I’m having a laff. I’ve said on here I reckon Pigs will flop. I’m just happy Eden will be taken out of the striker position.

Why has he not been starting Giroud? The poor bloke is forever a sub wherever he’s at

Sarri mustn’t rate him.

If driven across the States, no problem at all except I stacked on the kilos stopping at McDonalds for breakfast lunch and dinner.

Have driven into the middle of Paris on a dark, rainy night. That put the shits right up me.

Have done light aircraft before with no problems even when we did a passover to clear the runway of sheep/cattle. Did a few training flights too, and would have minded doing more.

Helicopters scare me a bit more. Have been a passenger but don't think I'd ever fly one.

Motorbikes the one form of transport I’ve tried and won’t be using again in a hurry. No margin for error, no second chances like you get in a nice, solid, steel framed car.

Moomba you are an absolute hero

Pigs scores when he wants. Rich man’s Harry Kane.

Don't you mean Pigs eats when he wants?

Have you got a VPN organised to watch EPL while you are over there ?

I’ve got NBCSports. Pretty confident all our games will be shown

Cursed number 9

 

[Fwoy]

Bloody awful what’s happened to Sala. You wouldn’t think there’d be anything but bad news to come out of this.

This is probably a terrible time to raise this question but as no one here knows him, I’m going to anyway. Do clubs have insurance on player purchases? Or are Cardiff left with the payment should he not be available to play.

The sarri and higuain partnership might be able to lift the curse.

Interesting. Seems like it sits with Cardiff. I hope they did take out the insurance. Even with all the Premier League riches, that’s a decent amount of coin for a club that size.

Then there is the need to get another player in presumably.

This saddens me. Silva really did get screwed moving to us. He had the debacle where he couldn’t play for the first half of the season and then he’s been largely ignored for the remainder of his time here.

 

[Milanista28]

Hope Piatek works out.

very very young team Milan have.

 

[mike123]

Desperate for a player neither Juve or Milan wants? Halcyon days at the Bridge obviously.

We’d keep of him if we could afford him but we need money to fund Ronaldo.

It’s a very valid question you raised about the liability in this situation. Such an awful set of circumstances and removing the human element for a moment, there’s still a business transaction that’s taken place.

I’d say this case will be groundbreaking in the sense it will redefine the laws of player transport after they’ve been purchased and the associated insurance policies surrounding this etc.

Such a freak occurrence. I haven’t listened to his final message and have no desire to.

I did however see a photo of the type of plane he was in, having had some close calls with small/private style planes I can just about guarantee I won’t be getting on one of them again. Frightening stuff.

 

[Fwoy]

From what I gather, the message is in Spanish anyway, so no point me listening even if I wanted to. Also lead to believe Sala organised the flight, so liability and insurance becomes tricky

When footballers make so much money, I dont understand why you wouldnt just fly business class with reputable airlines, big planes. Safety first... always.

Probably no direct Nantes to Cardiff flights on reputable airlines.

In terms of money, he’s probably paid 2-3 times more for that private chartered flight than a business class fare on a commercial airline.

I don’t think it was anything to do with saving money. More so the time/convenience of a direct flight.

No there isnt but you could take an Air France flight from Nantes to Cardiff via Paris. Would be much safer, if a little longer.
