[Archived] Summer 2011 Transfer Window Part One

[47er]

I'd say no more than £4-5m max.

It's a similar price for Gibson @

United

4M tops for me.

Seems to be fair comment to me, you might not like it but I suspect lots of people on this board would agree with most of that article.

Fair comment my a**e. There's no journalistic merit in that article..clearly sets out with an agenda and then lazily joints the dots, as suggested by an earlier poster.." In 500 words or less,see how well you can disrespect the Rovers via their owners.."

Depends just how much Juve wants him, they will clearly beat us to him if they're as interested as us. But Juve has other targets in mind, surely?

Aguero & Gilardino main 2 targets,Obviously Aguero will see how Real Madrid pans out,all quiet on Gilardino.Giuseppe Rossi,Higuain,Benzema,Farfan,tevez also being considered.

Mascherano,Diarra,Hazard,Ribery,Nani,Inler big names for their midfield.

Just spent the last 5 minutes retching in the bog.

So....

Moving on to other targets.

I thought about mentioning Adebeyor last week. Thought it might be in the "luca Toni" type category though

Thnak God I copied that pic before Andy's post was removed.

I would never condone someone revealing nicko's main source.

Shame about pedersen, it's rare that a player nowadays gives you a good 7 years of service. But I think the writing was on the wall when Kean stated his philosophy by wanting pace in the wide areas and attacking quickly. Nice guy but I'm sure he won't want to be stuck on the bench all season.

Best ever.

Just seen Joey Barton speaking on SSN at Royal Ascot. He looked like a turd in a top-hat.

[hawkiiz]

How much could we get for Peds?

[Scottrovers88]

2m

[47er]

OK then.

Dino Baggio.

I guess you would have paid £5m for him.

Don't forget Robbie Fowler!

If you want to know how much he is on then maybe read balwer's post

It is a worry that a deal like that would destroy our wages to turnover ratio, if we get above 100% then we are in the same boat that pompey were.

Nicko..any chance you could have a word with your colleague at the Mirror...something along the lines of if that's the best footy article she can manage she might be better sticking to covering netball

Annie Eaves - Venkys

haha...better content in this comment than her whole article

and also, nicko, as a 100% genuine question, why do you guys at the mirror all post different opinions on the same topics? is there no "paper wide view" or anything?

do you have any contact/professional relationships with the other journos?

[Blackburn Ravers]

Do a quick search on google for her? The mirror website has links to all her previous "articles". Here is one of my favourites:

"The secret diary of Harry Redknapp aged 64 and three quarters".

http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/opinion/columnists/annie-eaves/Annie-Eaves-imagines-the-secret-diary-of-Tottenham-manager-Harry-Redknapp-article734738.html

The best thing is that in the "Message to Venky's" thread, some posters think it's a balanced viewpoint!
