Jack Flash Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Spent £13m+ and brought in £12m and thats ultra generous as if means we banked £7.5m for Ba If we're talking a difference of a million then it's just as bad tbh. We arent though are we? Unless you think we actually banked the whole Ba fee and that we paid out no signing on fees/agent fees for the players coming in too. Thats obviously ignoring the obvious fact its January 10th and we are clearly trying to spend more than a spare £1m or so anyway. I do think we got the whole Ba fee, like it was reported and I don't count agents fees/future wages etc as transfer fees. That kind of nonsense started with this lot and people are swallowing it. That money doesn't go to other clubs so it's not part of a transfer fee. Time will tell on the rest of the window. I can see strong cases for it going either way.

'Like it was reported' because there hasnt been 2000 variations of how much we got already reported, somewhat unsurprising that you would choose the highest value to suit your argument.

Or because it was the most logical assessment I read on it. Either way, we've barely spent anything compared to most teams. If you want to keep defending that go ahead.

Well done mind, you should have thrown in sympathiser as well to look really daft Just so you know, whinging and bleating 10 times a day isnt the only way to go about not being happy with the club, its possible to not harp on and still feel let down.

Guest bimpy474 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 We need a proper back left back, well competition for Santon. As a young lad he will have bad spells such as now, he needs a few games out to regain confidence, unlike now where his confidence is taking a battering playing poorly in a poor team.

Aye, its why i said proper LB, i'm not having Fergie is a proper one, he's a good winger who can do a job there. Call me old fashioned but i like a defender who sniffs out the danger before it happens, covers properly with good positioning. I want my LB to a defender above all else, then you look at whether he can attack/cross etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanSkÃrare Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Valencienne's chairman is supposed to have confirmed an offer from us for Gaetan Bong. Also a left-back. Edit: Supposedly I've also Giggsed myself here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDT Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Wasn't Bassong thought of more as a left back before he joined? Could be that they see them as players who could cover both positions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
