KaKa Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Are these guys trying to insinuate that they expect to get their money back for Cissokho? If so there is no chance of that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxfree Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Fair price imo. Don't really agree, but say it was fair, it still wouldn't be enough under actual circumstances. As midds said: Sometimes you have to pay the price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest axel Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Don't mind starting low IF we are prepared to up the bid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoppaz Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Don't care but this game of brinkmanship only has only a week to go Yes and we only win the brinkmanship if the other clubs are desperate to sell, some dont appear to be which is the worry. We got Ben afra for less though. So why not try to get a player when the club want to sell him (and you told him so) for a price you are willing to pay?

As midds said: Sometimes you have to pay the price. I'm just basing it on what I think he's worth. I'm not factoring in our situation at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magpie Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Hopefully the fact we've bid means we're seriously interested. Mind you it means fuck all with these cunts in charge, it'll be another case of 'well we tried....' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Worth remembering in all this that 20% of the fee goes to Porto so no surprise Lyon are keen to get as much as possible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
junkhead Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Not sure if mentioned, but the Lyon president has confirmed we've made a bid on RMC radio. http://www.sport.fr/football/ligue-1-cissokho-pose-pas-mal-de-problemes-l-ol-230385.shtm The quoted guy is not Lyon's president but it's strange how he has the same surname as Sochaux's president Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quailman Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 If true we must be in for Cissokho rather than Pieters. Up that bid ffs! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BONTEMPI Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 If true we must be in for Cissokho rather than Pieters. Up that bid ffs! We're probably bidding for both and upping it by 25 grand a time hoping they'll bite Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Seems to me that we're just waiting to see which of Lyon and PSV bites first. If one of them does, of course... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Seems to me that we're just waiting to see who of Lyon and PSV bites first. If one of them does, of course... I think Pieters was first-choice, Cissokho's agent has probably been at Carr saying he'd join, we've stalled on the Pieters one trying to see if we can get Cissokho for the same price or similar, if not, back to Pieters it is.

Rich Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 It's nice to hear that these three (Cissokho, Maiga and Pieters) are all desperate to come, if nothing else. Gives us a lot of negotiating power. Can see both going right down to the wire and amazingly I do still think we'll end up with a decent left-back and a decent striker by the end of the window. Obviously I'd prefer it if it was done and dusted already, and this has been a tortuous few weeks in terms of deals, but I think I can just about hold out if it eventually gets done.

We'll have our set maximums for both & I imagine we'll be working our way up (possibly rightfully) through a load of derisory offers first before we get to these to see if they crack.

Double-edged sword though, as it means we'll risk not signing them just to save a few quid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
