Reo-Coker set for talks (Meaning Evil)

[Chris Smith]

If QPR come up, I reckon they'll be in for NRC

Yep, I said the same earlier in the thread.

That's probably about his level to be honest, plus obviously going back to London would be a bonus for him I expect.

About his level?
QPR are seriously rich, if they come up I expect them to compete quite easily in the Premiership, he'd be joining a club who would probably be competing with us for the minor European places.

They're owned by seriously rich owners, and have been for the past four years, but that's not the same as being seriously rich.  They haven't looked remotely interested in splashing the cash.

They might do if they get promoted, in fact I expect them to. They'll be something like the third richest club on paper won't they?

[Merv]

If QPR do get promoted - and they should this season, it's long overdue considering the backing involved - I can't see them instantly challenging for a European place. NRC would be an excellent signing for them, plenty of PL experience.

I can see him at Fulham, to be honest.

[Dave]

I've said it before, but I wouldn't be at all surprised to see a 'bigger' team than us come in for him.

The fact that he doesn't have a transfer fee is going to make him a lot more attractive. There's no way that Chelsea and Man Utd would have paid money for Sidwell or Owen for example.

£35k a week isn't going to matter a jot to the likes of Man Utd if they can pay the likes of Brown and O'Shea double that and Nige can captain their Carling Cup team.

[WALTERS WARRIORS]

There is absoloutely no chance of a bigger club coming in for Reo Coker. When he has been available ie MON saga. No one came in for him. Not even smaller clubs. And it was not about his wages, its because he is a very limited player. No not a "quality" player. He has no aerial power, poor passing choices and not a goal scorer. "bigger" clubs have Nasri, Lampard, Gerrard, Silva, Fletcher. These players are in a different league to him .....

I can't see that happening at all to be honest.  He just isn't anywhere near a good enough footballer to play for any of the "big" teams, and really wouldn't add anything to their teams.  Sidwell had had an excellent season for Reading when he signed for Chelsea, and was seen as a box to box, goal scoring midfielder.  Owen, when fit, can always nick a goal in a tight game.  NRC has struggled to win a regular place at Villa, and other than his athleticism and perceived ability to get stuck in, doesn't have anything special that would make one of the bigger teams take a punt on him in my opinion.

[Merv]

I could see Harry taking him on board at Spurs.

[The Left Side]

I just don't think he takes us to that next level, so he'll probably be back off to london, QPR is a good shout I don't think he'll go back to West Ham.

I'd be amazed if a bigger club came in for him. He's simply not a good enough player. I think he's probably already played for the biggest club in his career.

Why would he want him when he has Palacios, Huddlestone, Modric, Kranjcar and Van der Vaart?  Spot the difference between that lot and Reo Coker.

Neither are the likes of Gibson, Carrick and Evans. But the fact that he is a free transfer means that a club can take a punt on him.

[villa1]

Gibson and Evans came up through the ranks there. That's different. Evans is probably a little better than average. Gibson won't be there much longer. Carrick cost £18m. They didn't think they were buying an average player.
