Transfer Speculation / Gossip

[PeterWithesShin]

Steer was less than a half million. Norwich cost themselves by taking us to tribunal and getting less than we offered such is their spite towards us. The rest is add-ons based on appearances. And I think they get a sell on percentage.

Er, transfer speculation thread Dave. Different posters posting their opinions, you posting yours, me posting mine, them posting theirs. Loans, permanent transfers, whatever.  Two or more eh? Thanks for educating me. I am not in the know and have no idea if Luna, Lowton, et all are off  permanently or not. That's why we speculate. Hopefully, we make a profit!!

Go on Dave, please hold your breath. (Joke).

I assume this is basically you saying "actually, all my posts from the last hour or so can be ignored because I have no idea what I'm talking about"?

I'm going to head of to bed now to be furious about the £40m that we paid for Tonev.

I'll agree with those values dave, they're certainly close, we'd almost certainly get that much back on them (as a group).  As said, all in £60-65m is a conservative estimate of what we'd get back.  Yes a lot of that is tied into Benteke and Vlaar (probably the best part of 2/3rds) but even still if you want a stick to beat Lambert with the potential profit on his transfers is a particularly bad choice.  If Okore and Kozak hadn't picked up injuries so early in their careers with us I'd suggest we'd have a few more in the 'major profit' category.

Is that it? That's your comeback? Jeez, other people debate and you go to bed in a huff because you can't think of anything more useful to say. Interesting that you decided to pick on just my post, when plenty of others have debated like I asked them to. Goodnight Dave.

I assume by plenty of others you mean the chap who came up with the £14m figure that you're keen not to talk about anymore? We can bring it back if you like? No?

Anyone else in these 'others'?

I think there are still about a dozen points from five or six other posters stretching back about an hour now that you've conveniently bypassed. Head back to those and then maybe we have more 'useful debate' and a few more invented transfer fees.

it might be worth heeding, not just in this discussion but in general, that if enough people are pointing out that you are talking nonsense, then you probably are.

I would like to offer them more than they paid for Ricky Van Wolfswinkel and then when we are about to shake on the deal do that thing where you pull your hand away, stick your thumb on your nose and give a sarcastic wave. Adding "I thought you wouldn't sell to us".

Happy talk, keep talking happy talk.

a bit of Smith's might be more appropriate. What about Heaven Knows I'm (We're) Miserable Now?

what about 'Seasons in the Sun'

What about "Busy doing nothing, working the whole day through trying to find lots of things not to do...."

[peter w]

I din't think £4m for Senderos is overpriced at all. If we were to sell tomorro that is the going rate for a Premiership experienced, international centre-half.

[Matt Collins]

There's no way someone is paying £4m for senderos

damn, can you see into my soul? Or you talking about Villa

[paulcomben]

Mirror rumour of Lowton being loaned to Middlesborough. Seems unlikely. They can have Bennett back, though!
