Benitez on transfers: "If you can kick the ball forward, they will ask for £10million. If you put the ball in the net, it’s £20million"

 

I love how this is the same day that we signed a striker for £5m :lol:

In all seriousness, he's just putting a brave face on with that comment IMO. I'm sure if the funds he'd expected were available he'd not be that arsed about the fees at this point. It's the same for everyone, we're the only ones apparently waiting for other clubs to suddenly come to their senses and drop the asking prices out of the goodness of their hearts.

 

And anyway it's not like we haven't exploited the recent trend for daft fees for attacking players ourselves; £35m for Carroll, £30m for Sissoko and £25m for Wijnaldum spring to mind.

Yep. And someone asked a good question in another thread: what's happened to the January money? We didn't spend in Jan, I thought, because we were gonna hit the ground running in the summer.

 

This fucking regime. You simply cannot believe a word they say or guess their actions.

Guys Mike Ashley isn't gonna up and spend £200m of his own money on a player. Get on board with reality here.

 

Eh ????? That can't be true where have you heard that ?

:lol: funny. Oh well, Didier Deschamps, Ray Wilkins and David Batty had very good careers...

 

 

(Sideways 'passers', in case you're wondering).

I mean, a lot of managers probably think the prices are mental are saying similar things as Rafa said there. It's just a sensible person's response to a crazy market... doesn't mean he's not annoyed at Ashley and co but might explain why he is prepared to put up with some of their reluctance to spend.

Newcastle may have to ready themselves for cash bids for the sought after youngster.
