S-Clarke Posted 29 August, 2012 Share Posted 29 August, 2012 Poor Green. Didn't they just sign him? Never mind. Wouldn't want him, no better than what we have. I'm all for improving the squad, but we already have Davis in that experienced GK role. If we're going to get another keeper I'd rather it was another youngen.

I like Steele, good keeper. I would have said Butland a few weeks back, but I don't think he's ready. I reckon a season for Birmingham will do him the world of good, and as long as we keep our interest fresh we could get ourselves a much more mature player in 12 months or so.

We will not be in the hunt in a years time, probably too late even now as far as a fee would be concerned.

pap Posted 29 August, 2012 Share Posted 29 August, 2012 We could get the same quality as Green at a much lower price. Getting a packet of butter and smearing it on Kelv's gloves before each game, for example. A much cheaper way to get the same end result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyer Posted 29 August, 2012 Share Posted 29 August, 2012 your club has lost the plot I dont think so, the TV money is £60m next year and whoever goes down is in real trouble. Cesar, Granero and Mbia should mean a top half finish. If Rodriguez is on 40k a week, he will cost the same as Cesar over 4 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Boy Saint Posted 29 August, 2012 Share Posted 29 August, 2012 My boss is a ST at Loftus road, he doesn't rate Green at all and added obviously neither does Mark Hughes seeing as he splashed out on Green then goes and gets Cesar!

Flyer Posted 29 August, 2012 Share Posted 29 August, 2012 Rodriguez isn't on anything remotely close to £40k p/w What is it then, if its 25k then what would you rather have, £4m and a NPC player or a genuine world class player? I think Cerny got injured and Green has been awful in every game, even in pre season so something had to be done. As for a new team, we have 4 (5 including Cesar) new players and a wage bill lower than last season and also behind Saints in spending with £1.5m spent on fees.

Hoilett will be on a packet.....Park..? dawson..? (if you get him)...bosingwa..? I would guess that it is a sickening amount Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for a new team, we have 4 (5 including Cesar) new players and a wage bill lower than last season and also behind Saints in spending with £1.5m spent on fees. I note you still haven't admitted you got it wrong with your claim QPR have a category one academy, when in fact they didn't even apply for such a status yet alone achieve category 1 status. Nor have you acknowledge that simply wanting a new stadium means you will soon have a new stadium. Brighton for example took over 14 years to get a new stadium, numerous other examples around the county of long waits to move - including Saints. Saints are signing players with huge potential in their early 20's on relatively small wages. QPR are bloating their squad with players with big rep, relatively old, huge wages and little sell on value. If relegated you will struggle to remove some of them from the wage bill without taking a huge financial hit. Signing players like Nathaniel Clyne and Gaston Ramirez, along with having one of the best academies in England is a far better long term strategy.

S-Clarke Posted 29 August, 2012 Share Posted 29 August, 2012 I do find it madness that they offered Green a mega deal to tempt him there, and now they've gone and signed someone else to replace him - 3 months after signing him. I don't care what you say Flyer, but that's not a way to run a football club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tadanari Lee on £23k p/w, the British press when Rodriguez signed reported wages of £25k p/w. http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/325853/Southampton-snap-up-Jay-Rodriguez Doesn't look out of place when you compare the two for a pay structure and ties in what I've heard from a good source. Neither anywhere close to £40k p/w. Top earner at Saints is possibly Steven Davis on around £30k p/w when you consider his wages at Rangers, Lambert and Lallana would be up there with him.

Cabrone Posted 30 August, 2012 Share Posted 30 August, 2012 Signing a decent keeper on high wages and then signing another just because he's had a few iffy games are the actions of a very confused club.
