HaydnNUFC Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I hope it's true (both the tweet below and the Riviere and De Jong outgoings) but it's hard to be positive about anything atm. Fanks, Mike. Hopefully a win vs Forest today will boost morale amongst the fanbase, must be a positive atmosphere vs West Ham. Have to win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Always thought De Jong could be a good player but he's never fit and even when he is Rafa doesn't seem to fancy him so get rid if it means we can bring people in. I mean there are others I'd prefer to go first but they're apparently far to shit to sell so.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Just wondering how far along these were before we heard about them. Feel like Rafa was near the boiling point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Just wondering how far along these were before we heard about them. Feel like Rafa was near the boiling point. Personally feel like that point was almost reached after QPR last season, and at around the time of the first snippets of the Ashley interview coming out.

KaKa Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Ah some good news it seems! Thank God. With Riviere and De Jong being allowed to leave deals to bring some in must be looking good, because I doubt Rafa would be letting folks leave otherwise, as the squad isn't that great really. Here's hoping. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just awful. Why would any sane club want Riviere? You'd be actively admitting you don't want to score any goals ever And SDJ has been about as reliable as a Trabant trying to get around the Dakar Rally I'll believe these deals when they actually happen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Not sure whether to put these "rumours" in the braindead thread or not anymore. Seen much of this guy, VI? We are looking for a sale, not a loan. So probably a BS rumor. Lad's got potential but he lacks composure and confidence. Night falls on him every time he gets into the box. But he does have great movement and skill otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 £7m for a player who last time in that league was looked up to by Martial and outscored team mates James & Falcao. Bargain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Altamullan Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I'd take whatever we can and structure the deals to compensate the players for lower pay. Having these ghosts of players-past haunting the squad is damaging to morale. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 No chance we are getting 7m for Riviere. For both perhaps. Would be the best sale in our history (Pardew aside). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
