Benoit Pedretti, it's the guy they're looking to get to replace Cabaye. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LooneyToonArmy Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 5m euros is a bargain , a far cry than what I read on wiki (I know it's gospel like) During the season, he signed another extension agreeing to a three-year deal until 2013. Included in the extension was a release clause of €75 million. http://actu.football.fr/post/2009/03/27/2318-dossier-yohan-cabaye-le-poumon-du-losc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 I'm sure France only have one qualifier then two friendlies (according to the BBC) Maybe we could tie this up a bit earlier. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BottledDog Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Talking about him now on Talksport. Very good, plucky, strong, calm, technical. Not the same range of passing as Barton. Uproar in France as to his choice of club. A bargain, should be a fair few million more than the quoted price. Oh, and it is 'Ka - buy - e'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uproar in France as to his choice of club. A bargain, should be a fair few million more than the quoted price. Oh, and it is 'Ka - buy - e'. Also called him "dynamic and driven". All round sounds like the right qualities for a good midfielder, who could settle in well in the prem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 It really irritates the fuck out of me that they're almost disgusted he's signing for us, tbh. I hate how if any half decent player has the audacity to NOT pick a 'top' club they are instantly labelled as unambitious or destroying their careers. It's an absolute crock of shit, that kind of attitude. Typifies what a pile of shit the modern game is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 I'm not even talking about the French, just the general idea that top/rich clubs have a devine right to hoover up every single good player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 The thing is we're hardly a fucking useless club, we've been shit of late down to numerous reasons but we're by no means in the same litter of clubs such as Fulham, Stoke, West Brom and co that some clueless cunts try to put us in.

True. But you can't deny people with little or no knowledge of British football to find it weird that he's signing for a team finishing in 12th position instead of playing Champions League with a club hes been at for 12-13 years or so.
