Dave Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Queens Park Rangers have made an offer of €8million for FC Porto defender Rolando. The London club's chief executive Phil Beard travelled to Portugal yesterday to meet the Portugal international defender, who he and Porto are attempting to persuade to move. Rolando rejected QPR's efforts to sign him - and Porto's unusual attempts to push him towards a move brokered by then QPR manager Mark Hughes' unlicensed agent Kia Joorabchian - in the summer window. He has been barely used by Porto since then, but according to a friend of the player remains unconvinced by QPR's credentials. Following the summer approach, Rolando said: "I didn't go to QPR for two reasons. First, I don't go anywhere on loan. If I leave Porto I want to leave for good because it is difficult for a player who has been a first choice for four years and is a Portugal international to come back to a club after that club has sent him away on loan. Second, with all respect to QPR I didn't consider them to be a team for my level. "What I find hard to understand is why Porto rejected an offer of €8m from Roma at the beginning of August and then told me to move to QPR for a €2m loan fee and an option of €10m. This I find hard to explain." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

leffe186 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 15m for Zaha Well, 10M really. If he does what he needs to do to make it 15, then it will be a decent deal anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Oliver Kay @OliverKayTimes Is Paul Lambert optimistic of new signings at #avfc before Jan 31? “No, not really, no". Enquired but cost of deals “way too high”. Worrying you'd have though the prospect of relegation would have gotten lerner into action like 2 years ago especially this year Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Harry Redknapp getting his just desserts now. Ha! Very surprised they've only managed to add Remy so far. Fantastic.

Fat Sam about to lose Diame to Spurs too. The window just keeps getting better. I know they need to replace Sandro for the season but considering they have Sandro Parker Dembele and Huddlestone with Holtby coming in isn't that going overboard, wouldn't it be cheaper and simpler to just get in Holtby?

I think Sandro and Dembele are the only two central midfielders they are looking to keep long term. Diame now for £3.5 million to cover Sandro, and if he doesn't really work out like they want, they could probably get at least that amount or more in the summer when they sell. Just delighted about the negative effect it will have on Fat Sam's team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Roger Kint Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Wenger whinging like a bitch about us at his presser today: Arsene Wenger says January window is "unfair," adding "we're not after any French player, you can forget that. They go to Newcastle." Wenger has a bit of a moan, says limit clubs to signing 2 players max in January, not allow buying half a team like #NUFC. Wenger says unfair clubs like Newcastle can make wholesale changes. Unfair on clubs who have already played them twice Almost as if he didnt spend £40m in the summer while we spent about £1m......

I really respect Wenger, but he makes less and less sense every season. The transfer market is his real pet hate, seems to detest talking about it.

Fuck me! Lost a lot of respect for him for that, and I think highly of the guy. Dissapointing. Wonder if he was after anyone we got. Couldn't have been right? I mean surely they would have gone there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holtby is an attacking midfielder. Huddlestone isn't at Spurs level, Parker isn't disciplined enough to sit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
