Guest bimpy474 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 The signing French players thing is getting out of hand. It could be one French player in and one French player out if Obertan goes. And Marv out could make two. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 The signing French players thing is getting out of hand. It's not the signing of French players that is the problem, it is the always trying to do cut corners that is the issue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I wish we would score from corners instead of cutting them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Don't want too many French players of course. But its probably totally the wrong time to move our focus away from that market. With the 75% tax coming in players will want out and a lot of clubs will be looking to sell higher earners due to financial problems. Perfect environment to try to pick up some quality players for lower than their usual value. The whole situation must have Ashley rubbing his hands together.

Teasy Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Nah I doubt it personally. I think what might happen is they'll ask for 14m Euro's, we know they'll likely accept 10m Euros but we'll offer 8m Euros. By the end of the window we'll have reached 9.5m but won't go any higher and it likely won't get accepted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Lets just hope his ambition as a young player is to come to a club that's aims are to finish mid table, avoid Europe at all costs and not challenge for any silverware. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuy_O Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Have a feeling we may actually get him as I think Cabaye is off this month. Sign of how it is when you're only confident of a player coming as he's a replacement (although different sort of player). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the end of the window we'll have reached 9.5m but won't go any higher and it likely won't get accepted. This sounds about right - the usual NUFC way of bidding for a player. Its great - it alerts all the other clubs who may want the player and they just let us haggle away until they can jump in with a slightly higher bid or an increase in the wage offer, which the player's agent will have told them about.... At least we are enabling players to get a better club...! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 This came from their chairmen. To me it sounds like he's trying to start a bidding war. "Man Utd haven't made a bid but I expect Newcastle too soon". To me that translates too "Man Utd better hurry up with their bid". I can't see us forking out £14m without selling a major player. If we do pay that much and don't sell anyone then you can kiss your forward and your CB bye. At £14m and being linked with the likes of Man Utd, Arsenal, and PSG it would seem unlikely he would come here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugoinufc Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 wow, from that yotube compilation i have to say. YES please. He looks ace! won't happen I'm afraid. Cabella, a CB and a striker in - Obertan, marveaux, jonas and Shola (summer) out - business done! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, this is my final season and I want to go out on a high. We will see how things pan out. For the moment, I'm in Ligue 1, we'll see later what happens next. Marseille were interested in me in the summer, I was also keen, but I don't regret my decision to stay at Montpellier". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 More quotes from that radio interview already translated here. http://www.getfootballnewsfrance.com/2014/remy-cabella-talks-on-future/ ‘For the moment, I am 100% focused on my team. I am focused on staying up.I want to play these last months out but if there is an offer, the two clubs must agree.’ ‘If an offer is agreed than I will decide. Everyone says if its from England I must go. There are some good clubs in England. Over there, I would be the happiest.’ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
