Guest BooBoo Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Could be a classic Ashley ruse- bid low for a player who we have little chance of signing and then ensure a press leak. When the owning club reject the bid, get Derek to play the "hey, we tried!" card. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt he even cares enough to try and fool us We do seem to make an inordinately large amount of failed bids for promising players in the French League under Ashley. Hmm....

Guest BooBoo Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 The classic example is the ludicrous song and dance they made about us trying to sign Michael Johnson and Kieron Richardson a few years back on January deadline day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LooneyToonArmy Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Not that it matters but is Mevlut Erding any good? Never heard of him. looks canny from youtube clips but then again......so can many players Type this into youtube "Mevlüt Erding(Erdinc) 2009-2010 PSG This is my seazon to shine " Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Funny seeing one of the comments from a PSG fan in the L'Equipe article. "The same player if he was English would cost €30m...the English have to stop underestimating the price of foreign players and over pricing English players."

JJ7 Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Aye David Craig was munching on the bacon sarnie telling us to expect an exciting day. We ended up completing the Ryan Taylor deal and making two smokescreen bids for Richardson and Johnson. No idea how they thought we would be fooled by it. Haha.

Shak Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 They apparently paid 9m euros for him last summer. He goes and has a great season and we apparently proceed to offer them significantly less than they paid a year ago. Seems like the kind of "Surely they won't accept this... PHEW!!" offer our lot would throw in alright. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teasy Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Why would Ashley tell everyone not to expect any money spent and then make fake bids for players to try to convince us that they are going to spend money?

Ketsbaia Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Mevlut Erdinc is an FM legend, so I'd be up for that! With regards to us becoming a feeder club, at the end of the day Weiss and Wilshere are better than Bolton reserves. It doesn't matter if we're loaning them this year, as long as we survive. tbh its smart getting them two on loan when buying players equally as good would cost a lot.
