alpine_saint Posted 28 February, 2019 Share Posted 28 February, 2019 .....including them. you keep telling yourself that. Hard seeing what is going on at Anfield.

angelman Posted 2 March, 2019 Share Posted 2 March, 2019 Not so much a defector (but didn't want to start a new thread), but SISU are on the brink of getting Coventry expelled from the league which might make lead them to going out of business. Very sad, and one of Lowe's better decisions to refuse to sell to them. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-6764883/Cup-winners-face-league-axe-Sad-Coventry-City-brink-toxic-legal-row-Ricoh-Arena.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The funny thing is, our owners would have been gutted if he'd insisted on seeing out his career with us, as they just saw him as a commodity to be sold for a profit at the right moment. The only reason his sale was delayed until January was that Gao wouldn't let Kat sell him before he parted with his money to her. Of course, Old Les was very good at putting a PR spin on things like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup goalie can't catch a cold, defender can't stop the goalie being threatened by the ball coming at him. Blame the quiet bloke who chooses to live a personal life away from football, preferring to play golf, he isn't the first player not to talk about work the moment he walks out of the "office". I can't believe after 6 years he doesn't speak any Spanish, if he was carp Real would have moved him on with ease, Sorry lads you are going to have to grow a pair and put a bit of effort in, now the bloke who shielded you for years has buggered off to Italy.

Lighthouse Posted 5 March, 2019 Share Posted 5 March, 2019 £10 million FFS Right up there with Mane for £35 million in the ridiculously stupid stakes. Mane had 2 years left on his contract and this was before transfers went insane. Back when De Bruyne was 'only' £50m. Tadic was 30 and wanted to leave. Nobody else would have bought him and Ajax couldn't afford any more. It was basically that or being stuck with an unhappy player, who had been below his best for a couple of years anyway. Can't we just be pleased for him? He never acted like a tw*t when he wanted to leave and it was the right time for both parties to move on.

angelman Posted 5 March, 2019 Share Posted 5 March, 2019 Why would an overseas player want to play for a small provincial club in England, that has struggled due to a **** poor owner, when he can go to his adopted home and play for one of Europe's big clubs (even if it is in a supposedly weaker league)? Do people think that as soon as an overseas player comes to Saints, that he will be here for ever more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 5 March, 2019 Share Posted 5 March, 2019 The Mane sale was however badly negotiated. He went too cheaply. The same summer Man City bought Jesus for £27m, Gundogan for £20m and Sane for £37m. Chelsea bought Kante for £32m. Utd bought Mkhitaryan for £30m. The Mane fee was comparable with any of those and as I said, he only had 2 years left on his contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
