jdckelly Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 So that's two out of two when selling to a team with almost infinite money that we're not getting anywhere near the value of our player. Can people stop with the "we don't sell our best players unless it's for stupid money" now, please? I'd like to know since when is £20m (ish) not considered "stupid money". Football truly has lost the plot and the sooner it collapses in on itself the sooner it can be fixed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 @Scottwilsonecho AP: "I’d be foolish if I didn’t have a plan to deal with him going. We have. But until a deal is agreed, we can’t put a bid of our own in." If only we had some other money we could venture. Definitely not trying to flog him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shays Given Tim Flowers Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 The Cabaye pursuit only came about because PSG have had some injuries. I have major doubts he's an important part of the PSG puzzle. They'll get their money back from Man U/Arsenal in the summer/12 months time. His next move will be for £10m ish. I don't want this to be construed as the board doing a good job. They should have got more, but Im not sure how much more they feasibly could have got.

Football truly has lost the plot and the sooner it collapses in on itself the sooner it can be fixed. Because when you look at the transfer fees being spent by the likes of PSG, City and Monaco, we should have been looking for far more. Again, £40m for Pastore, £28m for Fellaini, £38m for Mata. I know Mata is fucking class, but Cabaye is worth more than just half a Mata, for example. This stinks of Ashley wanting to cash in, especially when you couple it with Pardew's constant attempts to flog him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would Tottenham sell him, is there another Capoue i'm unaware of ? recall something about them trying to sell him earlier this window but could have mixed that up with someone else indeed they are trying to flog him according to his agent The player’s representative, Martha Fischer, said: “The problem is not the player or Napoli – Tottenham just want a lot of money. What they’re asking for is absurd. But we are only on January 21, and there is still hope.” http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/tottenham-transfer-news-etienne-capoue-3047338#ixzz2reCB70lW Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would Tottenham sell him, is there another Capoue i'm unaware of ? recall something about them trying to sell him earlier this window but could have mixed that up with someone else It's not that. Just looked at Douglas's tweets and he mentions Capoue but in regard to us wanting him, and Matuidi the season because Pardew wanted to go two pure DM's behind a creative three and striker. I think Douglas is hinting at a DM rather than a Cabaye type. Thing with that is we have no creativity without a Cabaye. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pardew has no say, if (and thats a huge if) we go for anyone it will be on the basis of price tag not whether he's needed or not Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
