NickG Posted 18 June, 2013 Share Posted 18 June, 2013 Sorry if already here.... Banega is a passionate supporter of Newell's old boys. He has the club crest as a tattoo. Pochettino started his career there. 2002 he was playing in world cup. If player from club you support plays in world cup could be he is bit of a hero? Banega would have been impressionable 14 year old in 2002. Wishful thinking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tajjuk Posted 19 June, 2013 Share Posted 19 June, 2013 They'd obviously prefer our cash-up-front offer - but Banega would obviously prefer Inter. We're basically using our financial position to punch above our weight. Get our bids in early, tempt these financially struggling clubs with up front cash that lots of other european clubs can't match and offer the player a decent contract and a chance to play in the premier league. As long as the likes of Arsenal, Liverpool, City, PSG, Monaco etc don't come in and match us we hold quite a few advantages and seem to be competing with the 'next tier' of clubs around Europe like Inter, Lyon, Valencia etc. that aren't quite up there with the biggest clubs.

Remember that Inter are in no European competition at all next season too, and aren't likely to qualify for the CL next season IMO (which has been down to 3 places in Italy for the last couple of seasons). So whilst they are obviously a far far bigger club than we will ever be, in terms of footballing prospects they don't offer an awful lot more than we could right now.

Nope, doubt they will be challenging for Champions League any time soon. They are Inter though, a massive massive club, that draw still seems to work for Liverpool despite being nowhere near champions league for a few seasons now. I suppose Inter don;t have Liverpools cash though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suomi Saint Posted 19 June, 2013 Share Posted 19 June, 2013 If Inter are the competition then it's no contest I'm afraid. Let's not delude ourselves shall we? Anyway, in between running himself over, being drunk, and bashing the bishop live on the internet (allegedly), he won't have time to play football for them. So, we save our money and don't have a disruptive influence in the dressing room. A win-win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suewhistle Posted 19 June, 2013 Share Posted 19 June, 2013 I'm not sure Inter have the financial clout: just seen an article in today's Calciomercato on Inter ( http://www.calciomercato.com/inter/caciomercato-inter-duncan-blocca-l-arrivo-di-un-grande-centrocam-193830 ) which talks of 'risparmio' (saving) and 'spese contenute' (restrained spending) and no mention of Banega.

That's not being a 'character' in my opinion, that's just plain disgusting behaviour. If you're happy with that then it's up to you, but to most people it is completely unacceptable.

There also comes a point when the teams who would command the most prestige have their full squad complement of players. Most of these teams are already stuffed with big name players and are just tinkering, fine tuning. Then as you say, it becomes more viable for players from abroad to look at teams like us if they have ambitions of playing in the Premiership in preference over the other European Leagues, which are not as big a draw as the Premiership.

Yep Chelsea for example just seem to be stockpiling talent out on loan, imagine adding Lukaku, Courtois, De Bruyne, and Essien to our team. They have already added Schurrle to go with Hazard, Oscar, Marin, Moses, De Bruyne, Mata who can all play in the same position. Man City have Nasri, Sinclair, Silva, Toure, Fernandinho, Navas, Milner as attacking mid options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

syd_barrett_saint Posted 19 June, 2013 Share Posted 19 June, 2013 (edited) Pochettino and Banega will be happy today: http://hastaelgolsiempre.com/2013/06/19/torneo-final-2013-newells-campeon/ Maybe they'll celebrate by finalising Banega's move to Saints? (Interesting side note... In addition to having "NOB" on their crest, the accepted nickname of Newell's Old Boys is "The Lepers". Lovely club!)

SaintJackoInHurworth Posted 24 June, 2013 Share Posted 24 June, 2013 So... just to return to this thread which seems to have gone quiet lately... any news on Banega? I notice that this French website lists the transfer of Banega to Southampton as being under discussion: http://www.football.fr/football/espagne/mercato-foot.html (or does 'on en parle' mean 'people are talking about it' i.e. it's a rumour?) I also notice (and I am sure this must have been mentioned elsewhere) that there is some discrepancy as to when his contract is up for renewal. Goal.com suggest that his contract expires on 30 June 2013 - i.e. this coming Sunday, whereas Sky Sports have previously reported that his contract runs until 2015: http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11837/7441959/Banega-signs-new-deal Personally, I think he looked phenomenal on the video footage (and yes I know that SDR looked very good on YouTube too, but this video showed more than a player making a few mazy runs!) and if he is as good as he looks I hope we will be announcing we have signed him very soon! Unfortunately, I know nothing to suggest that we will! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suewhistle Posted 30 June, 2013 Share Posted 30 June, 2013 "Ever Banega can report income more or less interesting to the Valencian club battered economy, so it would not be surprising to be put on sale. Offers by the player not lacking but the truth is that the last word will coach Djukic." Doubt it somehow, Djukic might fight to keep him but reckon the final decision will be financially based. Certainly Banega would earn more with a Premiership side.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minty Posted 4 July, 2013 Share Posted 4 July, 2013 So I guess this needs bumping now that MP has confirmed we have been looking at him? I know Ever Banega. He is Argentinian. He plays well. He is a player we are considering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giordano Posted 4 July, 2013 Share Posted 4 July, 2013 So I guess this needs bumping now that MP has confirmed we have been looking at him?
