1878 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 What happened with Vagner Love? Don't know. I'm told he was at the training ground. The Mirror said an agent had misled the club or something. Moyes' latest interview also has something about "agents letting us down" as one of the reasons we haven't signed anyone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasper Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 He'll join us. Everton link is just to hurry us up and pay the % they want. Kasper is one confident mother licker. FACT always wanted to say that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny that very few of the players linked with English clubs (and us in particular) seem to have actually moved, or indeed gone elsewhere. Inler, Gomis, Arda, Derdiyok, Arshavin etc are all just as available now as they were a month or two ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true, once again proving how reliable the press are, not saying we aren't interested in any of those but is there a team in the Premiership that are as discrete as us?

I haven't read any rumours at all about them leaving. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could well be holding out hope that one of the really big clubs will come in for them, and if that doesn't happen then they'll settle for someone like us. Then in turn the bigger clubs are working their way trough their targets and will be telling these guys' agents that they still may be back in for them before the window closes if other targets don't work out. So naturally they are playing the waiting game hoping for the best move possible, which forces teams like us to play a waiting game as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derdiyok is maybe one for the future, but not for the first team just yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 agreeing with shak i think we have deals lying on the table for one or two of those mentioned.....hopefully with back up plans if these fall through. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 agreeing with shak i think we have deals lying on the table for one or two of those mentioned.....hopefully with back up plans if these fall through. Well the (real) ITK is that we had three major bids in for players months ago. Modric was one, and assuming Coloccini was another (agent saying we've been after him for yonks), that leaves one more on the table at least, with a back up plan replacing Modric I imagine.

morpeth mag Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 I still hope we are in for Inler but we are having to wait to see if arsenal buy him or not. Still much activity to be had in the next two weeks IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

morpeth mag Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 we need to replace Butt and i'd rather Guthgrie was a back-up so whilst they can both hopefully contribute this is our weakest area by far although I expect Joey b to be a stronger player when he finally returns.

Guest optimistic nit Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Juventus have claimed two English clubs have made enquiries about the availability of midfielder Tiago. Press reports have suggested that the Portuguese could be set to join Newcastle United on loan for the 2008/09 term, but it has been rumoured that he failed to agree terms with the Magpies. Everton have also been mooted as potential suitors for Tiago as manager David Moyes looks to make his first addition of the summer Imagine the carnage on here had we not signed anyone at this point. i dont want to think about it tbh. just imagine if, in august, our first signing of the season was a new contract to Alan Smith.

Dokko Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Getting a funny feeling we could end up with Arshavin. Not for the £20m+ fees talked about, but a club record, somewhere in between. No idea why, just think our supposed focus on loan targets might mean were looking at one big coup before the window closes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea why, just think our supposed focus on loan targets might mean were looking at one big coup before the window closes. I don't buy into all these rumours about wanting to cut the wagebill, not wanting anyone expensive, or only wanting young players, but I just can't see KK or the owner wanting him tbh. Far too risky.

Dokko Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 He could flop, Modric was the one really, shame. Just have a feeling there's a big player coming in, an attacking player which will spark the team, the reason were clearing the decks as much as we can, to support a big coup without straining the club too much. I'm saying Arshavin since he's the most likely player that is the type im thinking about to be moving soon. It might not be him, it might just be blind optimism (something not usually associated with me) but have a feeling our biggest signing of the summer is yet to come.
