Yorkie Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 I think it's best people don't get their hopes up a massive amount with this one. You'd think that Palace have only published this to try and giddy-up a few of the big boys. What club announces they're "considering a bid" from someone?

Mister_Glass Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Well they haven't rejected it, which suggests to me it'll be accepted unless a bidding war starts. Then I guess it's a matter of how high do we go? Teams will want to pay in instalments and add-ons, meaning the initial interested parties like Barca & Madrid (if that was ever the case) won't pay upfront for a player years away from making a 1st team appearance while the likes of Forest won't have the kind of lump sum Palace Admin would require to clear debts. Citeh have turned their attention to Adam Johnson while the Spuds have a goal keeping problem to solve. It really does leave us and WBA, WBA have the cash as well. I reckon £3m upfront is the highest we should go. Just catching up with this thread, so sorry if this has been pciked up on already. I dearly hope we get Moses, but the bit in bold above is wrong. They don't shout about it, but Forest have got a massive massssive amount of money to spend - getting on for £25m if they wanted to - but the powers that be there are not daft enough to just splurge. I can't see that we can be considered close to being favourites at all for his signature. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 just doing some simple adding up 82 games and 17 goals. that took him to 24/25 so the majority of his career he was w*** he is what 30 now? and started at 17.. so majority his career yehuh I've never come across anybody with worse judgement on strikers. His senior career started about 12 years ago. 6 years into that career the team about to win the premiership paid £25m to sign him. Explain to me how that equates to him being 'w*** for the majority of his pro career'. Mm i remember after harewood come on as a substitute in his debut here and you immediately started posting 'he has got to start our next league game' ignoring his match fitness and just about everything else. your knowledge is kinda shocking, so that's kinda cheeky. Do you remember who scored in our 'next league game'? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does that even mean? The answer is, a club who have a player who could potentially go for substantial money, but have received no such bids yet.

Were you calling him w*** in 2004 when he almost single-handedly put us and Liverpool out of the Uefa Cup? The point was that he was a late developer. The exact percentage of his career that could be described as 'wank' isn't that important. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like normal practice when clubs go into administration that they have an open policy about their outgoing transfers to make sure these transfer happen as quickly as possible to aid the return to financial stability. Pissing about just doesn't do it for them, if their saleable assets aren't out by the end of a transfer window they're all but fucked, hence being public about it piles on the pressure for interested clubs to finish the transfer.

gazza ladra Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 OM paid something like £3M for Drogba. Really, stop digging a hole for yourself. Drogba was not "wank" for most or even half his career. Admit you are wrong and move on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't make the comment 'w*** for majority of his career' any less of an ignorant comment. As pointed out, 6 years into his career Mourinho paid £25m for this 'wank' player.
