can't believe villa paid 6m for Dunne! :lol:

 

Hes a good solid defender at International and Premier League level, I think 6 mill is a fair price. Especially when you consider how much Lescott cost and even how much Colo cost us.

Agreed, Villa needed an experienced CB so the price seems fair. As a counter-example, Spurs didn't actually NEED Kranjcar (a replacement for Modric, sure, but there are alternatives) so I suspect we wouldn't have offered much more than we did. Who else would Villa have got for that money, or cheaper (given that Distin went to Everton)?

Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink to Hull

 

Would have been great for us in the Championship, but he will struggle in the prem, he didn't have a great goalscoring record at Celtic did he?

 

38 goals in 80 appearances.

It's good at any level imo. Although, the SPL is a fucking shit league. I could get 15 goals a season in the bloody SPL.

Well if you look at Afonso Alves record at Heerenveen, and compare it to his time at Middlesbrough...

 

I don't know how good Hessilink is in the air, he might be okay in the Premier League but I doubt he'll be as prolific.

Bet he feels s*** knowing he was about 10th choice.

 

Duffen was on SSN saying all the talk about other strikers was rumour and speculation coming from agents and media.

 

JVoH was obviously first choice................... :rolleyes:

 

Rumour and speculation from agents, the media... and Phil Brown. :lol:

Quiet you.

 

I'm more suited to a defensive midfield role ala Alan Smith anyway.

Spartak priced out of Pav transfer

 

Spartak Moscow claim they were priced out of a move for Roman Pavlyuchenko after Tottenham put a £17.6million price tag on the Russian striker.

With Spurs boss Harry Redknapp keen to keep the 27-year-old, it became clear on deadline day only a big offer would seal his departure.

 

Pavlyuchenko, who joined Tottenham from Spartak in August last year, has played just 12 minutes of the club's opening four league games.

 

That has prompted speculation he could be ready to quit the capital, but Spartak boss Valery Karpin was unable to compete at the figures quoted.

 

"We offered £9million for his immediate transfer," said Karpin.

 

"Or they could get £11.5million through a loan deal - we would pay £1million right away and the rest after a year's time.

 

"But Tottenham rejected our proposals. We were told that the price for Pavlyuchenko was £17.6million.

 

"For us, it would be absurd to pay that."

 

:lol: How any club is willing to do deals with Spurs is beyond me. You just know they will rip you off.
