gumboots Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 I've always thought Bruce was completely out of his depth when it comes to the transfer market. If I were Wickham I'd stay put at Ipswich rather than go to Sunderland. But then if I were Wickham I'd do anything rather than go to Sunderland. Don't like them, have never liked them (nearest rival club when i was growing up in Normanby) and then they have Bruce as manager.

pick32 Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 City in for Savic Said in the samba thread last week that he would be an amazing signing but looks like the big clubs have come in for him now.
philipl Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 Personally I havent seen anything of him, he also struggled to get in the failure of the U21 team Pearce not picking you is no miscredit. What bits I saw of Ipswich, he looked uncontainable at that level- he is big and skillful and could run through any opposition's defense.
Backroom DE. Posted June 28, 2011 Backroom Posted June 28, 2011 I've seen quite a bit of Wickham. For his age he is outstanding - he's unusually strong for a boy his age, which is a huge advantage and defenders can't bully him off the ball. He's powerful, got good pace and a decent shot on him. His technique still isn't the best and his decision-making is often suspect. It doesn't get picked up on so much in the Championship but it would get picked up in the Premier League. Almost all Ipswich fans would take £13m for him in a second.
RoverMad86 Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 Glad we didn't enter the Wickham race at those prices. Typical English forward in the modern game. Over-rated and over-priced.
John Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 Gardner from Brum to Sunderland for around 5 million, not seen much of him, good potential signing for Sunderland?
imy9 Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 Gardner from Brum to Sunderland for around 5 million, not seen much of him, good potential signing for Sunderland? Tidy player, neat passer and scores the odd goal, good signing for £5 million.
Hughesy Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 £5m, average player - if your happy with 10th-15th every season he should be good enough, anything more and he would struggle 2 signings for Sunderland from the club that went down!!

Bobby G Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 Its about MU making an official bid for Nasri. Also Barca have launched a 39m Pound bid for Cesc apparently.

Abid6814 Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 apparently big transfer news going to be posted by the mirror at 1 am on there site regarding arsenal, do you think it has anything to do with samba ? Likely to be the agreed sale of Fabregas to Barcelona
dhughes07 Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 It's real Madrid who have agreed the fee for cesc, do I hear.
SuperCat Posted June 28, 2011 Posted June 28, 2011 Th paper states £17m release clause. Didn't know that.

Hughesy Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 man united keep spending the cash http://www.manutd.com/en/News-And-Features/Football-News/2011/Jun/De-Gea-signs-on.aspx Reaching the champs league final was estimated to be worth between £75-90m so it's not suprising
A cup of beans Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 wish we were the mystery club! http://football-italia.net/jun29k.html
TheNews Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Word down my way is spuds have 2 out Palacios to PSG (Currently minted) £14m and Pavlyuchenko to Anzhi Makhachkala £13m (Rusky mob with loads of cash) Expect to see them spending big soon then
Hughesy Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Brazilian Diego dreaming of prem move..... Wakey wakey Balaji!!
sweet Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Shame would of liked Pav at ewood, but not at that price. What is it with spurs? How do they end up getting just as much as they payed for a player, who barely got a look in at the club, it is not as if he is in his early/mid twenties either?! If kalanic played for spurs and wasn't getting a look in, they would probably be able to sell him for 6-8 million! We'd be lucky to get 3.5 for him!
Clitherover Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 What is it with spurs?

Because they've got football's equivalent of this guy managing the club.
TheNews Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Because they've got football's equivalent of this guy managing the club. As funny as that is its not him that does the deals its that penny pinching chairman, Levy
