Rovers went to see him - but he was injured. They went back but by then the price was known and higher than the agent doing the deal for them had said.

Wigan paid a great deal for him, more than Rovers would have gone to.

Good player.

very good money paid --it's been a while since an Argie went for that cash, perhaps Aguero to Atleti being the last? I hadn't realized this Boselli lad played with Messi for Argentina's last U19 championship a few years back.

With all this in mind, I cannot fathom why Boca Jrs. (with their well documented $$ ills) let this guy walk away on the cheap to Estudiantes.

--kinda gives you an insight to Veron as AFA powerbroker. There is definitely something there lads.

According to Wiki Boca only sold half of him to Estudiantes, so if that's correct, they'll probably be receiving half of what Wigan's paying, on top of what Estudiantes paid for him.

On the top of my head atleast Higuain and Pastore have moved to Europe for bigger cash after Aguero.

Edit: Di Maria probably too.

I just go off what I saw last season and his inability to make the team in the latter stages....therefore, would it be such a crime to look to sell whilst to the rest of the world he's a near superstar..?....this is exactly the time to hawk him around the turkish clubs...!!

He was injured :glare:

Why does it appear that Sam would be afforded goodwill if he left for the job in Dubai because he's 'turned us around' yet Hughes was lambasted?

I haven't lambasted Hughes. Hughes was an excellent manager. So far as I am aware, he's never said anything adverse about the Rovers. I think he was in the same predicament Sam is in now. He's not being supported by the Board.

Hughes was up front and when he left, we made money. It wasn't his fault that Ince was his successor. More to the point, Hughes later arranged for the Rovers to cash in on Roque Santa Cruz, which helped our finances immeasurably. Overall, Hughes derves credit for his time here, as will Sam when (or if) he moves on.

How come Wigan can afford a £6m striker and we can't?

Dave Whelan.

nicko is the LET article saying weve decided to try and get a striker after all and its Piquionne rubbish?

West Brom and now West Ham have taken an interest in Piquionne in the last few days. The price is down, his wages are not.

There won't be any signings at Rovers right now from what I hear...got to say it again, the takeover thing is jamming up the whole job.

Whether that is good news or bad news is very much down to what happens in the next few weeks.

Does anyone actually read what is put in this thread...?

"Nicko, what's happening with this guy? What's happening with this other guy?" - response: Nothing is happening at Rovers while there are takeover talks!!! So why do people still continue to ask the same base question?

If there's any news to be had, I'm sure Nicko will drop it in on an 11 o'clocker when it's on the verge of public knowledge.

I guess we are about to face a very tense few weeks to see what happens.

On one hand I hope the takeover goes through so that we will be able to fight for an european place. On the other hand I am very fond of the way my club is run and would like us to keep working in the same way in fear of tickets being more expensive and the club loosing the fine link with the lancashire people.

LT reports today that Sam is expected to move for his striker before the weekend - Boyd's representatives have been contacted and he favours us over Boro & the turks as he fancies prem football...so thats a possibility - also suggests it could happen as it would save the fee which we could use elsewhere.

It also says Boyd is one of 3 that we are looking at.....with surely another 1 Piquionne

Rovers Supporter Jong Tae-Se the North Korean Rooney a scam?

We have earlier read that he has been wearing his Rovers shirt in training and he is a huge fan of the club. According to this article he loves both United and Chelsea.

I love Manchester United and Chelsea it is a dream of mine, said Tae-Se.

Ill just put out a name in here who I would love us to try and get.

Andre Ayew

Has had an amazing world cup and along with Anthony Annan been the best players on Ghana.

Plays as a winger and can be used as a striker.

Is on loan with Ligue 2 outfit AC Arles-Avignon on loan from Ligue 1 club Olympique de Marseille. Whether or not he is a part of Olympique Marseilles plans or not I don't know.
