Vinny Green Balls Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 You know we are going to go in for Gomis with a much reduced offer in January. Like Marcus Crassus' fire brigades. Watch the tenements burn and offer less and less. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 wondering who would be more effective up front in our next game, Shola or Alan Shearer, cos he's probably available. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch the tenements burn and offer less and less. According to the statement he's not as good as the players we already have so what's the point bringing him in.

TRon Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 If were serious about Gomis we'd have paid the extras and brought him in this summer. Lyon obviously figured that by the time they paid them they'd have been left with about £3m so they might as well keep him. He'll sign for Marseilles in the summer now, or whichever club can offer the best overall package, which we've demonstrably proved isn't us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the problems with having limited ambition is that the better players at the club will be kicking themselves sooner or later. Today it's Cabaye which many people forecast last season, if we don't produce better football this time round, there'll be a few more I guess.

To be fair, 'many people' predicted Hatem, Colo and Krul would want out this summer. All because they despised the manager and style of football.

Hatem was definitely one of the ones I thought would want out, but his star has waned since the season we finished 5th and he was on fire. He didn't have a good Euro tournament and his fitness and performances have been erratic for us since then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotus Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 The players we have that are genuinely good enough to tempt bigger clubs are Cabaye and HBA. HBA is inconsistent and has a bit recent history with injuries (still my favourite player) and Cabaye does want out. The next 2 to appear on other clubs wish lists will be Sissoko and MYM. I don't think we've a squad littered with players other teams are desperate to take off of us tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krul would be very high on clubs needing a goalkeeper. he would, but the style of football we have played doesn't really affect him so he's only going to be unsettled if he gets a CL club coming in for him I would think. Anita, Cabaye, Cisse, Sissoko and HBA are the ones who might feel the football we play doesn't showcase their talents effectively. But hopefully we are moving away from that anyway, it looked a lot better against Fulham than I've seen for a long time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd at least want our money back and i can't see anyone paying £7m for Anita unless he actuall has a decent season of 30+ starts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Sissoko was out of contract in 6 months when we signed him. If others wanted him so bad they could've bought him in the earlier September. Same with MYM. It's just Krul & Cabaye that are likely to attract the big boys. HBA needs to have a season without a big injury for once. He needs that kick-on season. 50 appearances in over 3 years won't have Manchester United kicking the walls down to sign you as a 26 year old. If he can stay fit and play over 30 games this season I do believe he would become a hot property. Massive if. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
