NEEJ Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 The current transfer gimp on SSN is pretty annoying. Didn't notice him until someone on here pointed it out. The Marca bit was cringeworthy. What a tool. What was it? Just making a big deal about Marca reporting that Bale wants to move to Real and they'll bid £52m. Was more the way he was reporting it, he sounded ridiculous.

thomas Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Since when did Hooper become this player of apparent star quality? Seen nothing from him to suggest he'll be anything better than decent. He'll score a few goals, as he should. He'll score more than our forwards will and in arguably a worse team. #Fuming Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Not that it's a great indication of anything, but Hooper's pretty close to an England call up. He's much better than most of you are giving him credit for, but you'll soon see that. He's not a "poacher" at all, he's far more rounded as a player than that. Good signing for Norwich.

Disco Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 TBF to Norwich their squad was piss weak, now it's not. Probably won't do much more than keep them up but that's all they can really aim for realistically. At least with some of those names they'll play a bit more progressive football you'd imagine.

Neil Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Oh aye Disco, don't think anyone can say Norwich have had anything other than a great transfer window. Significantly improved the quality of their squad and I expect them to be very comfortable mid-table. Still not seen much to justify the Hooper hype, but I'm sure I'll change my mind when he knocks a couple past us on the opening day. Sent from heaven.

Village Idiot Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Wasn't referring to us; I used quotes. After "like a new signing" and variants of "fuck off Pardew" that's probably the second most used sentence in this forum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdckelly Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 gotta love Marca's daily make shit up about whatever the club orders us to Real mouthpiece Marca went much further yesterday, claiming Bale accused Levy of broken promises in a highly-charged meeting last week. Marca - who have already claimed the player has a lucrative six-year, deal on offer - quote Bale as saying, in an explosive meeting: "You made me a promise. "You promised me if we didn't qualify for the Champions League and a good offer turned up you'd listen to it. Well that offer has arrived and I want to play for Real Madrid. So keep your word and negotiate. "I'm not interested in Manchester United or any other team. I just want to play for Madrid." http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/tottenham-insist-gareth-bale-not-2094046#ixzz2aByFQIkj Seriously VI does anyone in Spain actually believe the bullshit they come out with Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 I'll put it this way, the space that tabloids occupy in UK is filled up by sports rags in Spain. Sensationalist partisan bullshit most of the time. Except that we don't get tits in them and at least they don't talk about politics. Of them, Marca is The Sun. They aren't Real's mouthpiece, though, it doesn't work that way. They are a Real Madrid rag, but they try to influence and meddle in Madrid's policy with their articles and made up crap. Most Madrid's presidents would have erased Marca from the earth if they could. Their levels of bullshitting are staggering, though, particularly in the TV network they run. It's almost 1984-esque, if we print it then it's true. What they are amazingly great at, is at printing bullshit that their audience wants to believe in. Like this Bale thing.

Village Idiot Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Pizzi suspiciously transferred to Benfica at the same time that Roberto is supposedly signed on a free. Word is that both footballers are actually owned by third parties and the sale was necessary to turn a profit for them regarding Roberto. Poor Pizzi, he's actually a quite decent footballer but I can't think of any other player that has been part of more shady transfer deals in the past two years.
