Guest sicko2ndbest Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Rumours on HOL and a Wigan forum that a late 4 million bid has been made, possibly from Arsenal Here's the quote from the Wigan forum: He wont sign. trust me, spoken to someone who knows and there has been late bids upped from two sides remarkably bigger than us. and anyone who knows me on here knows i dont come and claim knowing stuff like this like some do. not unless substance. unfortunate as he may have been good but understnad it from his side .

BeloEmre Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Rumours on HOL and a Wigan forum that a late 4 million bid has been made, possibly from Arsenal Why bid £4mill when a £2,5mill bid already have been accepted? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Agree with VI. Wigan would be a good destination for them in that he would be likely to move in another 2 years or so. Not sure they're a securely established Premiership club though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Until it's confirmed, I'd say we've still got a shot tbh. With the administration, its highest bid wins so we know exactly what to do. And given a straight choice, I genuinely believe he's pick us over Wigan. But if we miss out, I'll be sad but not too gutted. Three days ago, the idea of signing Victor Moses was ludicrous and us being in pole position was just a lovely bonus. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cp40 Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 All thats disappointing is that a no mark club (Premier League status or not) like Wigan are buying our transfer targets. if he chose Wigan over us cos of money, great, we dont need any more mercenaries like that at this club.

He would not have chosen Wigan due to money and is certainly no merc, the administrators will want the highest dollar they can get for him (not Moses) but if Moses can agree personal terms with Wigan then he will go there, the sale fee is out of his control. Wages are another thing and if a Premiereship club can offer him more and regular football then why should he not go there. Some need to remember that we are no longer the catch we used and havent been for a long while, a player will only come here if we can meet their personal terms and and beat off any competition. No way will we be able to fight against prem clubs for signatures, if we were playing consistant good football and sat with a 12 point lead with a game in hand then I would believe otherwise. You don't become one of the best strikers playing crap football infront of 40k+ loyal fans in the Championship . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we match the fee and personal terms I think we are a big draw for any ambitious young player. Wigan have offered a bigger fee so they are in the driving seat for now. Obviously the kid's in demand so the administrators are waiting to see bids most. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robster Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 if he chose Wigan over us cos of money, great, we dont need any more mercenaries like that at this club.

If Stoke or Blackburn put in a bid for instance I doubt Moses would even consider it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
prefabtoon Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 More smoke and mirrors from ashley and co, We never intended to make a serious bid for moses, Its clear after today our midfield is stagnant and Most teams have sussed this out now, If we intend to go for promotion we need more pace and movement from our midfield. Butt and co are getting overrun. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
