KaKa Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 out of interest, who's the last championship player to have moved to the premiership for anywhere near £5m? Lallana is in league one by the way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Bale and Walcott. Delph was rumoured to be a fair old fee too wasn't he? Aye, £4-5 million irumoured I think. Undisclosed though. Also he was from League One. (so is Lallana I guess). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest sicko2ndbest Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Depressing lack of action this morning. Only real story is carrolls outward departure Oh how I wait for a tiote style story to catch me unaware Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 The quotes from Pardew that "it's proving difficult" - that one is new - is an indication that we've missed out on a couple of targets. I'd rather we didn't sign anyone than just brought in some shit for the sake of it tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 I think we could at least get a half decent forward in on loan but I don't think we will. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Think Yakubu could have done a job for 5 months. Leicester have paid a £1m for the priviledge, a fair whack for a loan deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Everton are below us and so would never have given us Yakubu. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxfree Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 CaulkinTheTimes George Caulkin #NUFC 1 of several clubs with interest in Wright-Phillips. Wages would be problem, surely, after knock backs on Larsson, Bothroyd etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Surely we can get a better and cheeper winger than SWP? Doubt he'd be best pleased sitting on the bench either, which is where i'd want him to be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 SWP seems likely to move later rather than sooner, because no-one seems keen on matching his wages. At the same time, City look keen to offload him. In the end, I don't think it'll be us. We seem to be stricter on our salary policy than many other clubs, and we're not in the kind of desperate position where we'd be forced to make an exception. PS - I can understand people not rating SWP, but I don't understand the hostility. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AfroP Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 we wont be able to sign any body half decent from the prem league we will have to import talent or get it from the lower leagues. we simply will not pay the wage demands of most prem league players. its both a good thing and a bad thing. good becuase it means we only really sign players that want to play for us and not the money. and bad because we cant get anybody of real proven premiership quality Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledGeordie Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 I think SWP on loan wouldn't be such a bad thing really. Atleast it gives him a chance to prove his worth and it he doesn't do it we haven't signed him anyway. Wouldn't be happy about buying him outright.

Cajun Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 I doubt Ben Arfa was signed on minimum wage I just don't think we will pay over the odds. If we did sign SWP I would rather he played off Carroll. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
