Turkish Posted 22 August, 2014 Share Posted 22 August, 2014 Ah crap, unfortunately Balotelli is a good signing for them and I was hoping they'd struggle up front. Ballotelli -why always me? Scousers - why always us? A match made in heaven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doddisalegend Posted 23 August, 2014 Share Posted 23 August, 2014 16m for Balotelli isn't so bad if he brings his other half to games on the WAG front she is easily worth 16 million I reckon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angelman Posted 23 August, 2014 Share Posted 23 August, 2014 http://www.rovers.co.uk/news/article/statement-jordan-rhodes-1860372.aspx Hull not getting Rhodes then... That is, he's not off at £9m. Reckon £12m won't be enough but £15m might test their resolve but do Hull have that. People are critical of the fee paid for Long, but I guess we were prepared to pay a little over the odds, as there is not a great pool of players to choose from. I also said the fee should be judged by who Hull get as a replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd Posted 24 August, 2014 Share Posted 24 August, 2014 West Ham and Hull have both made decent signings. Campbell to Palace for £800k could be the bargain of the season.

JxgrSaint Posted 24 August, 2014 Share Posted 24 August, 2014 I hear United have, in their desperation, bid £7m for Barcelona's debutant tonight - think his name is Pußkat.

angelman Posted 25 August, 2014 Share Posted 25 August, 2014 Great signing IF he has the balls to drop Rooney or RVP. I think he's going to suffer from the Rooney problem, same as Moyes, and indeed England. Mata is brilliant, really rate him, but he needs 2 decent CMs behind him, 1 striker in front and 2 wide players. They still need a top quality CM, maybe another wide player, but most of all, a very good CB and probably a RB. They've lost any real team identity, just a mess. But they could turn it round, for instance: De Gea Rafael New CB Rojo Shaw Vidal Herrara Valencia Mata Di Maria RVP Excellent balanced team with place and width potentially. But no, it'll be a random 3 at the back, trying to play Rooney off the striker, or 2 up front, or him wide or Mata wide. Good luck with that! Pathetic line up showing all that is wrong with PL, but I guess some have done even worse by having no English players. Guess we all look for different things from football.

Saint Charlie Posted 25 August, 2014 Share Posted 25 August, 2014 Reading keeper McCarthy is likely to join QPR. They will have two good keepers with Green and him so its is possible to have a better no 2 than a 38 year old Kelvin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to tuttomercatoweb.com, Palermo striker Abel Hernandez is flying to England ahead of completing a €12million (£9.5m) move after rejecting interest from Benfica. People said it was crazy fee for Long, but I said to judge the fee by the replacement Hull sign. Hernandez has scored 17 goals in 83 games in Serie A, which is 0.205 goals per game which is marginally better than 28 in 148 for Long (0.189 goals per game), so on paper, not an upgrade and when you take experience of this league into account, it could be a retrograde move, albeit with £2.5m in the bank.
