Jonas Gutierrez signed from Mallorca on 5 year deal


Recommended Posts

So, basically, you're just another impatient idiot moaning about this transfer window for no good reason?

 

I sure am. I need to to be able to tell you I told you so later on.. Do you remember last summer´s and this January´s transfer windows, because there is a pattern to be found..?

 

What's the pattern? How many players who paid off their own contracts did we get?

 

How much did we invest (substracting income from players sold)? How much did our competitors and the top 4 invest?

 

Christ. He has paid his own contract off. Is that a genuinely difficult concept? He could be worth £40m, if he's paid his own contract off, we'd still have got him for the same amount.

 

And Arsenal have spent less overall than just about everyone over the past five years btw. That's because Wenger disagrees with your opinion that money = success.

 

If we'd come out and announced that we'd signed this bloke for £10m, would you be more comfortable, yes or no? Bring back Shepherd and his brilliant negotiating, all is forgiven. :rolleyes:

Love how Pompey were supposedly willing to pay £8m but getting him for peanuts is bad business. :lol:

 

I'd never heard of Dimitar Berbatov, Pascal Chimbonda, Morten Gamst Pedersen, Habib Beye, Kolo Toure, Robin van Persie, Eduardo da Silva, Luis Nani... I could do this all night. But he was cheap (for reasons that were f*** all to do with his actual value) so he must be s***.

 

Oh and he's also s*** because he's only the right winger from a club who have finished 7th in one of Europe's best two leagues - I reckon we should go after Bentley instead.

 

hahaha tbh, i have heard of all the mentioned except for Toure. In fact, i knew Berbatov is a very good signing. they are all either stars or rising stars before coming to the Prem.

Are you going to acknowledge the £8m bid they turned down from one of our competitors wasn't 'all paper talk' then? Seem to have conveniently missed my post.

 

It´s a quote from a dodgy chairman (http://www.mallorcacharteredsurveyors.com/en-news.asp?id=28) desperate to recoup some money to make up for his failings whilst in the process of selling up the club. It sounds rather like whinging to me, and I don´t know what to make of it.. Anyway, as I´ve said before, it´s not about this particular signing that I am increasingly concerned, it´s about our comparative low spending and our cost cutting culture compared to our competitors.

hahaha tbh I've been to St James' Park. If you don't like my club from my city, do one.

And that's the bottom line, cos Steve Bould says so

So that's a no then. Case closed.

Fair enough, guess I deserved that.

 

Will you still be laughing if Harry gets SWP for let´s say 8 million now he´s supposedly missed out on Jonas? I know I won´t..

I will reserve my chuckling until the end of the season. I will have a pre-chuckle at Christmas if necessary, but as I know fuck all about Gutierrez he might turn out to be better than everything ever

Agree completely.

Ask me when I've seen him play. Keep having to repeat this for some reason.

 

It's a gamble on a player from another league, but then it's a gamble on a player who's not played regularly for a few years and has some way to go to hit his previous heights is it not? If SWP goes for £8m then he's probably worth about £5m btw.

We need to start paying massively over the odds for players even when they're going cheap or free. That makes them betterer innit?

 

I paid £8 for a loaf of bread earlier. My sandwiches on Monday will be fucking sublime. :smitten:

The low spending thing might well stand up I suppose, but where is the 'cost cutting culture' info coming from? Just the rags from what I can see, and they've demonstrated in the last week exactly how much they know about us. It's just rumour at this stage. Well there was a rumour posted last night that the salary cap thing is bollocks, why not believe that instead?

 

It'll all come out in the wash. Let's judge at the close of the transfer window and then how we do next season.

 

If it was all purely about how much we spend, we'd have done a hell of a lot better under the last lot* than we did.

 

 

*Not a criticism before anyone starts...

On a similar note, I'm never buying pringles again. (See General Chat if you don't get that)

I've said it far too much already and to each their own and all that but I personally am fucking sick of reading and hearing people complaining about our transfer business this window. Why is it so hard to wait till the end of the window to make fair judgements?

 

Make the rest of us fans look bad.

We've bought a current Argentine International - positive and fact

 

We've bid a club record amount for a player - positive and fact

 

Why are people being so negative?

'Cos it's cool to moan now then sneak away quietly if things turn out alright. And if things don't, 'I told you so'.

 

Basically, by predicting doom people can't lose.
