Disco Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 'a great philosopher once wrote, "boom boom cheik cheik the room"'. Also to the same tune... Knees are fucked, knees are fucked, Tiote's knees are fucked! Superb Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifu Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 If Tiote is back for Swansea, it will be a welcome return/massive lift of pretty much epic proportions especially with our options at CM decreasing by the game...... Oh and that bit about him being "set to join Chelsea", absolute load of bollocks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 'set to join Chelsea' actually means he's now undergoing treatment in the pensioners hospital, listening to them craic on with war stories and that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minhosa Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Times have him moving to Chelsea for £23m and, from memory, are normally pretty accurate with their Chelsea stories. They say the same as the Mirror in that Chelsea want him in during Jan whereas he wants to see out the season here and move in the summer. £20m profit in one and half seasons though. Can't wait until the £60m get's reinvested. Fucking hell, we'll be Champions League bound. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Reckon we will hold out for over £30m, and for that price we have to say goodbye really. All the talk this time last year in the papers was Carroll for £20m, by the end it got to a price we couldn't turn down. Plus it also releases 5 years of Tiotes contract which was paid for apparently by Carroll. Carr & co will have his replacements earmarked already, who knows, they could be better ala Ba.

Minhosa Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Probably right TT - wouldn't be surprised to see the fee rise as we're hardly desperate to sell. There's only so far you can go with the buying low game imho. For every Tiote there's a Obertan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 This is it - as we found out in the 1980's, keep on selling your best players and you are headed only in one direction and it's not up! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, eventually you have to take a Spurs-esque stance (with Modric) but I don't ever see that happening under this owner. The price tag before the team every single time.

oldtype Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Look on the bright side, he's been out of the team for so long it's almost like he's gone already! Softens the blow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the evidence that the Carroll sale helped us to progress is what exactly? That he can't do it for Liverpool despite being great for us? Or that we've so far reinvested none of the transfer fee?

Wil Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Remember in the past when Cheik's name was being linked with a move, on more than one occasion the local papers would get an interview with him saying he was very happy here. Ominously quiet this time. With Chelsea rebuilding and their constant links with the player, it adds up for me. And with Ashley knowing he can get the best price this time of year, reckon he'll be off sooner than later. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, eventually you have to take a Spurs-esque stance (with Modric) but I don't ever see that happening under this owner. The price tag before the team every single time. I don't think spurs ever received that kind of offer that was in the bracket of Carroll for £35m for modric or bale. They'd have to have a £50m cash upfront offer on the table to be anywhere near that kind of madness, and if they did I think they'd accept. Every player has his price, as cronaldo showed, were no different, it would just be nice to have absolute faith in the powers that be to invest the lot back in to the first team and keep rebuilding, that's the real issue here.
