Other clubs' transfers

[Mowen]

Because Blackburn have no money and have been very prudently run over the past few years. I'd be amazed if they've ever gone above £45k for any player.

 

He's said it himself on the news over here. Went from £35k a week to £55k.

 

I take it back then. That's simultaneously staggering and ridiculous. You got a link for it btw? I know my Rovers supporting mate will deny it...

[Guest schmuck]

His long throws will keep Allardyce in a job for years to come, they should have trebled it

[brummie]

Good to see Man City being as classy as ever already this transfer window.

 

20m? That's a joke. We paid 12 for him two years ago, and he's improved by far more than 8m pounds worth.

[Ronaldo]

£20m for Milner truly is a joke.

If they want him, they'll get him. Unfortunately.

I'd demand SwP the other way if i was MoN

Which is why football is so massively fucked. You try to build something, then some vile, lottery winning, arriviste blaggards come and fuck everything up by preying on human greed.

£20m for Milner truly is a joke.

 

The fact that it clearly isn't, as evidenced by Man City's opening bid, tells you everything you need to know about how wrong you are.

[ponsaelius]

Gotta say I'm on Ronaldo's side with this. There's no way Milner is worth £20 million IMO.

[Ronaldo]

The same Man City who psaid £23m for a £12m defender?

[brummie]

He's worth what someone will pay for him.

 

I personally don't think any footballer is worth more than a set of tracksuits and a few match balls, but that's not the way these things work.

Thanks for making my point.

 

They paid it, he was worth it (to the selling club).

it's rerlative.......if rodwell (according to some members of the press) is worth £13mill then milner is worth that and more.

 

 

 

 

(i personally think its all shit apart from 2 clubs who can pay several million for a tea lady)

i think it will be eventyally. most clubs have sussed they cant borrow indefinitly and the fad of rich men buying teams for entertainment will pass.

Of course, but in relative to the current transfer market it's a ludicrous price. Man City are inflating prices with this kind of thing, the 'ruining football' lark is a bit sensationalist, but the way things are going it's getting that way.

 

You won't find an adequate replacement with that money either, unless MoN bites the bullet and starts buying foreign.

[Cronky]

Man City had to either change the manager or the team, because the two were at odds. It seems they've opted to change the team.

 

At the end of the day, are they going to be any better off? They'll have a completely new side which will take half a season at least to gel. Not very different from the same time last year.

I think you're getting a tad confused here. All I said is that £20m for Milner is a joke, just like £23 for Lescott is a joke. Neither player is worth those sums, Milner especially.

be honest, even messi isn't worth either of those sums.

[Ronaldo]

No, we're talking context now. In today's market Man City aren't an accurate guage of value we all know it.

Imagine how we felt when we had a great manager had us playing the best football we've played in years.

 

All of a sudden some jumped up club with a foreign billionaire owner paid over the odds for one of our best young players, he was sold behind his back and this was a cornerstone to the manager leaving and the club imploding.

 

Fucking annoying when lottery winning clubs fuck you over by being so rich...

[Guest kingdawson]

If James Milner is the type of signing City are planning on making in the summer then i'll be very very happy.
