SNSUN Posted 30 July, 2013 Posted 30 July, 2013 Being told its WHU Surprised. Thought he'd go to either West Brom or even back to Swansea. I think he'd be good for us, and I know we run out the "his brother plays in our academy" line, but it's true, and you'd think he'd want to aid his development. We needs to get Jake to have words with his big bro, and fast!

SNSUN Posted 30 July, 2013 Posted 30 July, 2013 Glasgow has zero sources.I thought he won the "SWF ITK of the year" award? Non?
Glasgow_Saint Posted 30 July, 2013 Author Posted 30 July, 2013 Glasgow has zero sources. Lampard is sh*t
Saint Matty 76 Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 Caulker going to Cardiff for £9m? Would be an excellent signing.
SuperSAINT Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 Caulker going to Cardiff for £9m? Would be an excellent signing. Thought Spurs really rated him?
pingwing Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 Caulker going to Cardiff for £9m? Would be an excellent signing. Thought he had a massive potential ability rating on FM but in reality was bog average at the moment with a massive price tag a. because of his "potential" and b. because he's very home grown.... Sticking my neck out on this one and saying £9m is too much and Levy at Spurs just wants another ivory back scratcher

Sticking my neck out on this one and saying £9m is too much and Levy at Spurs just wants another ivory back scratcher Not sure about that, had a brilliant season at Swansea whilst playing the same sort of football we want to be playing here. Fits in with our young and English philosophy too so I'd be quite surprised if we hadn't even enquired.
Saint Garrett Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 For £9m, I'd love him here. I really rate him and he's still very young. Think he'll be England's first choice CB in a few years.
corky morris Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 For £9m, I'd love him here. I really rate him and he's still very young. Think he'll be England's first choice CB in a few years. Completely agree!
sfc4prem Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 For £9m, I'd love him here. I really rate him and he's still very young. Think he'll be England's first choice CB in a few years. Disagree. Wholly overrated probably because he's English.
fish fingers Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 For £9m, I'd love him here. I really rate him and he's still very young. Think he'll be England's first choice CB in a few years. I thought that was goin gto be Michael Mancienne
Saint Garrett Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 Caulker is a proper CB though, I saw Mancienne as more of a RB. Thought he was superb for Swansea.
Monk Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 The bid accepted in Spain I posted about was lost in translation. It was in reference to a bid that went in for Osvaldo & he rejected which is well documentated. Socidedad made an enquiry in July from Morgan, club & player rejected.
Saint Garrett Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 Anything on prospective ins? Heard anything about Damiao being close?
Saint Charlie Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 Damiao could happen, afterall he will want to play in a good league to make the WC squad. Monk - didn't you say the coaching staff really like him?
Batman Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 Bale has told spurs he wants out. according to various press reports on another note, Ronaldo has thrown a spanner in the works by (apparently) demanding a new contract worth €20m a year NET
Window Cleaner Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 (edited) I see Michel Bastos (played against us for Schalke last week) is probably going to move to Al Ain. Even though he's pushing 30 that is just a sacrilegious waste of talent. Must be able to get better than that for a transfer fee of 4 million €. Edited 31 July, 2013 by Window Cleaner
itchen_dan Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 @SkySportsPeteO: Cardiff agree deal to sign Tottenham defender Steven Caulker on 5 year deal. #ccfc #thfc #spurs As a side note - @SkySportsPeteO: Bournemouth have agreed a deal to sign Norwich winger Andrew Surman on season-long loan #afcb #ncfc
SuperSAINT Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 Agree with Charlie. Great signing for Bompey. Fair play to Cardiff for the Caulker deal too - I thought that was just a tabloid rumour earlier.
Badger Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 (edited) Agree with Charlie. Great signing for Bompey. Fair play to Cardiff for the Caulker deal too - I thought that was just a tabloid rumour earlier. We should have hijacked the Caulker deal. Edited 31 July, 2013 by Badger
Matthew Le God Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 We should look to hijack the Caulker deal. That might be difficult... [video=youtube;DGaUjQp5-3E]
Badger Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 We should have hijacked the Caulker deal. That might be difficult... Yes, indeed. I have changed the original to suit !
Armchair Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 For £9m, I'd love him here. I really rate him and he's still very young. Think he'll be England's first choice CB in a few years. Perfect example of how insanely inflated transfer fees are for mediocre English players. For that kind of money you will get far more value abroad.

BlakeySFC Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 Everytime I've see Caulker he always looks incredibly average. A mid-table Championship player that has been hyped up by the media. No way in hell he's worth £9million.
Chez Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 Time will tell whether Caulker at £8/9m is better value than Lovren for a similar fee. excellent comparison.

pangy Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 I know we work quietly behind the scenes but other than the Damiao link we really have heard nothing about anything or anyone,we are not even linked to anyone.i am not panicking but as I have faith in RL & J-Rod but you just feel we need a higher calibre of ST to push us that little bit further than we already are.if we have tried getting Osvaldo and Damiao and they are no gos who is available for us to bring in?
SNSUN Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 I'll say one hing about the Caulker deal - Cardiff didn't hang about with that! News only filtered through about it this morning and he was signed by six pm. Swift stuff from Cardiff - must've been concerned they'd be trumped at the 11th hour.
Jonnyboy Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 Disagree. Wholly overrated probably because he's English. Well you need to be English to get in the England squad don't you think?
sfc4prem Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 Well you need to be English to get in the England squad don't you think? What?
Jonnyboy Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 What? It was stated he would be first choice in the England team in a few years. You said you disagreed and he is overrated because he's English.
sfc4prem Posted 31 July, 2013 Posted 31 July, 2013 It was stated he would be first choice in the England team in a few years. You said you disagreed and he is overrated because he's English. I was replying to the first bit. he said he would love him here, i disagreed. Now fack off MLG.
Chez Posted 1 August, 2013 Posted 1 August, 2013 Not seen enough of Caulker to make a judgement, but do Spurs have a recent history if letting players go that come back to haunt them? They are a top 5 side so are looking for world class player to improve them. Cardiff could be yet another former championship side that surprises the blase Prem sides. Could be a good season...
Gingeletiss Posted 1 August, 2013 Posted 1 August, 2013 Well you need to be English to get in the England squad don't you think? No you don't!
Tokyo-Saint Posted 1 August, 2013 Posted 1 August, 2013 Spurs fans saying he turns like a bus and is slower than huddlestone. Looks like he was sold as spurs, like us, play a high line at the back.
Smirking_Saint Posted 1 August, 2013 Posted 1 August, 2013 Caulker certainly didnt do himself any injustice at Swansea, 9m is possibly a little steep but thats the English premium for you. Good player nonetheless though. Cardiff are building a reasonable little team.
Dalek2003 Posted 1 August, 2013 Posted 1 August, 2013 Caulker certainly didnt do himself any injustice at Swansea, 9m is possibly a little steep but thats the English premium for you. Good player nonetheless though. Cardiff are building a reasonable little team. I think they will hold their own this season.
Badger Posted 1 August, 2013 Posted 1 August, 2013 I still think we need another CB, has Alderweirald left Ajax yet ?
SuperSAINT Posted 1 August, 2013 Posted 1 August, 2013 I still think we need another CB, has Alderweirald left Ajax yet ? Not yet. I'd take Stoch & Damiao this summer, and (if I'm being greedy) Astori in January.
