Cajun Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Or he could return to Liverpool or another big club who might be interested in a free? He could get the buyout money back through a signing on fee. Him buying out his contract is approx the same amount as what a club would have to pay for him though. If his wage were 20K a week it would be worthwhile but his wages are so high it makes buying out not really an option when the release clause in his contract for about £6 million. Who knows? What if a club comes knocking and say to him they will have him for free if he pays out his contract with us? Or they pay the sum in the clause if he will wave his signing on fee and possibly accept lower wages than he's on with us.. If it's one of the big 4, I believe he would jump at the chance.. I doubt it. He isn't going to spend £6m, miss out on a signing on fee and accept a lower wage. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggio Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 I thought if you bought your contract out you were not allowed to sign for a club in the same league? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovejoy Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 i dont think we will spend huge, Ashley was at liverpool last week and said next season we were going to aim for the top 8 which to me would take 20-30million ontop of funds from sold players.. and the rest. we need to spend around £50m+ to get up there imo however, city have done it after spending about £40m, and they were similar to us last year, but they had a solid base to build on, as well as youth coming through etc, so we are behind them imo (it also remains to be seen whether they finish top 8). one things for sure, £20/£30m wont be enough to turn us around Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying we don't need to spend a fair bit but I'd be aiming for higher than a top 10 finish if we did. I don't think our defenders are all that bad, they're quite a bit better than what we had last year yet we didn't concede anywhere near as many and I put that down to how the team was set up, under Roeder the fullbacks got plenty of support from the wingers and the midfield gave the centre backs plenty of help, everyone done a good job of working for each other, at the moment we seem to be all over the place and the back four don't seem to be getting any support at all, that's something we should be looking to work on rather than taking the view that we should just go out and replace the lot which is just unrealistic (not saying you've said it but a few on here have shown that attitude) As for who's good enough for the top 10...I think most of them are but not necisarrily in the same team if that makes sense, what we really need to do is work out what we're missing and sort that out, personally I'd look to bring in a quick winger to replace Milner, and a pair of centre mids that can sit in and protect the back four as well as being technically good with the ball at their feet, which will not only help with ball retention but knock on the head the need to keep playing long balls out all of the time. I'm not saying I wouldn't want better and if the money was there I'd get in a new keeper, 2 new fullbacks, 2 wide men, 2 centre mids and a striker, but I'd expect more than a top 10 finish if we did spend big money on that many players.

Dave Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Just been reading the Sports page of the Sunday Mail at a mates house. Why do they hate us so much ? Or has KK had a falling out with them at some time. They have a 2 page rant about us including having a pop at Wise for going to see the Lion King whilst we were losing 3-0 to Liverpool ? Where was it showing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggio Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 The funny thing is if Dennis Wise is at the game they say he's putting pressure on Keegan by being there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToonTastic Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 I think the mail was also the paper who created the story that if KK doesn't win our next two games he'll get sacked. Just seems very funny that they are suddenly throwing loads of shit at us as if someone at the club has said something/refused to do something for them.

Yorkie Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 I'd be thrilled if someone could take Owen off our hands this summer. A huge failure in the grand scheme of things, and a huge waste of time and money, given his wages/initial fee/reputation. So long. £6m+ and i'd take it. Saying that, i think we could even fetch closer to £10m, simply because it's Michael Owen. Selling to a team (who will hopefully) be a direct rival in the future isn't great... but i'd rather we sold him than Oba. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 1nol Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Is Bob Cass still at the Mail? He was good mates with the Shepherd clan if memory serves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
