r0cafella Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 @lee_ryder: #nufc sources saying that no firm bid for Thauvin has been made at this stage . Only interest at the moment say Lille. "Monitored" Monitored 3 days before the window slam shut, ffs If we had already got a striker in i would be ok with that bearing in mind the lad wont want to spend 6 months at Lille so could end up begging us by Monday. Then again we are pissing about on all fronts so its rightly laughable stuff. I'm honestly convinced now, and i have never felt this before. But i do believe we aren't even trying to sign anyone. Absolutely no one. I used to laugh at people who said that, now i'm humbled by my previous arrogance at it. It appears that way mate. To be "scouting" players at this stage seems a bit of a joke to be honest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was pretty convinced we would end up with Gomis at least this window but I'd be surprised now tbh. The fact that we've never really pursued any other targets suggests that it was a half hearted effort at best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ameritoon Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 I'm going to believe Douglas and the French guy here. Ryder's proved many times he'll get in line with the club for shit/wrong info or exclusive coverage of some PR stunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Gomis ideally would like to go to OM. Thauvin also wants to stay in France. It just seems strange that we are pursuing these guys unless there is concrete evidence that either is really serious about coming here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 @MsiDouglas: Understand that #nufc have tabled a substantial bid for Florian Thauvin of Lille - target first reported in the Journal a fortnight ago. @lee_ryder: #nufc sources saying that no firm bid for Thauvin has been made at this stage . Only interest at the moment say Lille. Odd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Flash Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Don't think we'll sign any one of note. My prediction is looking ominous.
