If I was Houllier, I'd wait until the 31st Jan and offer £4m. If he dont take it, then he wont get that in the Summer and he'll regret not selling him to us.
He's only on 10 grand a week though - even the donkey as their mascot earns more than that.
Blackpool have missed out on Barnsley winger Adam Hammill, who opted to join Wolves, and it seems talks with Peterborough about their midfielder George Boyd and striker Craig Mackail-Smith have hit a stumbling block. "We were only offered £3.5million for Charlie Adam. Peterborough want that for two lads who were in a team that got relegated from the Championship," said Holloway, quoted in the Blackpool Gazette. "I don't mean that as an insult at all but I'm saying let's have a look at reality. "They know we're a Premier League side but they don't know where my chairman (Karl Oyston) is. He likes to do good deals and are those players worth £2million (each)? "Maybe they are, but who will buy them for that sort of price and what does that make Charlie worth? "This is why it is so hard to quantify anything you own. Your house is only worth what someone will pay for it, not what an estate agent tells you."
Sounds like he's already spent the Charlie Adam money. Would be such a shame for him if we told him to go and dangle.
The cheek of the man. Those two guys at Peterborough are pretty good and have long had a reputation among the better players in league one. Darren Fletcher should have a go back.
