Don't understand the money being too good to turn down angle. I find the price irrelevant in our current situation unless its something way too much like £15m. Not like we're going to buy some world beater for the £8m we're getting, even if it is a good price for him. I can see how Charnley and Ashley could think its too good to turn down but not fans

We'd better hope Saivet is every bit as good as we think or we could end up badly regretting this.

 

He basically needs to be good enough to go straight into the team, forget about needing to adapt to English football. The games are running out and we really can't afford to gamble. Tiote in his last couple of games is showing exactly what we have been missing in central midfield. Saivet has to provide that from the get go because there's no way Colback can do the single DM role.

Normally I would be happy with 8 mil for him, but over the last few games he has shown that he is thr best suited sitting alone in front of a back 4. So would rather keep him till the summer and hope we can flog him then. Colcack-Shelvey would be tragic, i think Anita-Shelvey could work and we know nothing about Saivet, so Tiote-Shelvey would be the best choice for now

someone in CM position needs to go and i sure it has been the plan for some time. He have too many options there...and many of them are easy to upgrade.

 

Hope Tiote and Gouffran are leaving this window.

Find it a bit ridiculous we would sell him. He's obviously s*** at times but I'd still have him over Anita and Colback any time and there's no guarantee Saivet will work out either. Not really interested in the fee

He's been no better than Colback and good performances three years ago shouldn't cloud your judgement.

 

I agree with the 2nd part, but yes he has been far better than Jack Colback ffs.

He's only had two good games in about the last two years, albeit they have come of late, £8m is good business for him when you take into account his age and injury record.

Jonjo and saivet in, Tiote out is allright for me. Just get rid of jack or anita and get another and I will be singing and dancing...

Nobody wants to sign those 2. Colback might be here for a long time. But Anita will get released for free next year. N

 

If we are certain Saivet is an upgrade it's a good deal. Someone out on big wages and fee who is injury prone, someone in on smaller wages and fee. If Saivet isn't an upgrade it's a huge bollock I agree.

Tiotes Witch Doctor

Colback will definitely play now, McClaren wont have the spine to field two brand new central players at once.

Oh aye, now he's leaving some of you suddenly like him. But a few months ago it was insane to suggest he was better than Colback and Anita-_-

I never understood the logic of signing Colback. A free transfer is only going to be good value if you sell them on. What the fuck are we waiting for? Must worth £2-3m at a push.
