Batman Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 They haven't signed either player yet, and they're automatically going to be better than us. Didn't we have this with QPR last season? oh...and Norwich the season before?....and WHU the season before that? Never mind. cabeye is all but signed, according to reports in the media
Saint Charlie Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 Stoke signing Marco van Ginkel as part of Begovic deal. Good business.
S-Clarke Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 Stoke signing Marco van Ginkel as part of Begovic deal. Good business. He's a good player, thought he was wanted back at Milan. That awful injury he had came at such a crap time though, totally ruined his Chelsea opportunities. Will be interesting to see what he can do with some game time. And secondly, what a waste of a quality goal keeper.
wanyamaisatank Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 Stoke signing Marco van Ginkel as part of Begovic deal. Good business. That deal kind of somes up everything wrong with modern football in a way. A keeper nearing his prime leaving to get Paid to sit on a bench. Talented youngster not given a chance at a big club.On a side note if Stoke replace nzonzi well they do looks good for next season
SuperSAINT Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 Scott Dann is set for a new contract worth around £65,000-a-week at Crystal Palace, according to the Express. The centre-back has two years left to run on his current deal but will be rewarded for his excellent form from last season. Everton are among the clubs to have been linked with a move for the 28-year-old this summer. ^ This is neither here or there, but £65k!!!!!!?!?!!?!?!

Why not give a contract like that to a better player?
maxi_sopez Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 Palace signing Cabaye is very frustrating. I wonder why we didn't go in for him, would have been a good replacement for Morgan and a big, exciting signing. Anyone else slightly baffled. Also him going to Palace is equally frustrating as we haven't lost out to a big club but a bloody smaller one than us. Oh well.

S-Clarke Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 If they're paying 65k for Scott Dann, what the hell are they paying Cabaye???
stevewanyamasfcs Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 If they're paying 65k for Scott Dann, what the hell are they paying Cabaye??? 100k according to the Mirror. Madness.
S-Clarke Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 100k according to the Mirror. Madness. And that's why I prefer the way we do things.
Saint_Ash Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 But we should be doing the same as palace or we'll be mid table or something!
CB Fry Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 100k according to the Mirror. Madness. This is what is known by some round these parts as "ambition".
Soulful Odin Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 One look at QPRs wage bill should be enough to show you higher wages does not necessarily guarantee you better players. Cabaye is 29 so a 4 year deal will see them straddled with a 32/33 year old earning 100k a week with no resale value and little incentive to move on
van Hanegem Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 Stoke signing Marco van Ginkel as part of Begovic deal. Good business. Too bad for van Ginkel. He's a great talent but I don't believe that Stoke is the right choice for him considering the way they usually play. He should have stayed in Holland for a couple of years to become a key player for Ajax, Feyenoord or PSV and then make a move abroad. It wouldn't surprise me if this goes wrong, just like van Wolfswinkel at Norwich.
beavis17 Posted 10 July, 2015 Posted 10 July, 2015 PSV have given Wijnaldum permission to talk to Newcastle and undergo a medical.
Donatello Posted 10 July, 2015 Author Posted 10 July, 2015 Cabaye official. http://m.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/33474027
Appy Posted 10 July, 2015 Posted 10 July, 2015 100k according to the Mirror. Madness. They'll be back in admin before they know it if they chuck wages about like that.
Lallana's Left Peg Posted 10 July, 2015 Posted 10 July, 2015 What is the difference between Palace paying Cabaye £100k a week and us paying Ramirez and Osvaldo over £100k a week between them? TV money means small clubs can pay big wages.
Redslo Posted 10 July, 2015 Posted 10 July, 2015 What is the difference between Palace paying Cabaye £100k a week and us paying Ramirez and Osvaldo over £100k a week between them? TV money means small clubs can pay big wages. And if they are not playing in Europe, they can lose up to 35 million pounds a year under Financial Fair Play so long as the owner puts the money back in.
Torres Posted 10 July, 2015 Posted 10 July, 2015 I'd have loved us to sign Cabaye if he's still the player he was before going to PSG but not for £100k/week.
alpine_saint Posted 10 July, 2015 Posted 10 July, 2015 The Sterling saga is a sight to behold. Really enjoying it. Almost a carbon copy of the sort of crap Liverpool enouraged from Lallana and Lovren last summer. What goes around comes around. Of course, the Scousers just feel sorry for themselves as the ramp up the abuse in the national media again...

The Serbian currently plays for Belgian side Anderlecht and his agent has been quoted in the Belgian press, saying: "Formalisation of the transfer will be made in the coming hours. "Mitrovic will sign a contract for five seasons with Newcastle."

SuperSAINT Posted 10 July, 2015 Posted 10 July, 2015 DELPH MEDICAL SET Aston Villa midfielder Fabian Delph will have a medical at Manchester City this weekend, according to Sky sources. ^ Delph off to take one of the token home-grown player roles on the bench.
S-Clarke Posted 10 July, 2015 Posted 10 July, 2015 I just don't understand Delph. He is ok, but not a world beater. He's not going to get into that City team ahead of the likes of Toure, Silva, Fernadinho. So he's becoming a squad player for no reason other than $$$$$. Scott Sinclair/Jack Rodwell mk2. When will these guys learn...?

When will these guys learn...? He is quite clearly squad fodder for being homegrown, but I guess every player backs themselves to make an impact and has faith in their own abilities to do so - whether that is misplaced or not. Delph is 25 now, so not really that young, but shouldn't be happy about being on the bench though.

Delph is 25 now, so not really that young, but shouldn't be happy about being on the bench though. Another reason this rule should be looked at. The home-grown rule was brought in to protect the England team and to ensure the squads aren't overloaded with Foreign. All it has created is a situation where the 'Top clubs' fill the squad with English players, but never play them - just so they fill the quota. It's made the entire situation 10x worse.

St.Patrik Posted 10 July, 2015 Posted 10 July, 2015 Big Jos have found a new club after being released by Saints. He today signed a 2 1/2 year contract with AIK Stockholm - the club he left 2009 for Celtic - then Saints. AIK's fans are really exited about Jos coming "home" and to be honest Swedish league is probably where's his standard is and he will not let anyone down that's for sure.

I think I speak for the majority in wishing him all the best. He's a very likable guy and was a great signing for us. Bagged about 8 (?) goals in our promotion season and was a rock at the back next to Jose.
S-Clarke Posted 11 July, 2015 Posted 11 July, 2015 So, Stoke missed out on Shaquiri, Konopolyaka and Soures. Lost Begovic and N'Zonzi and have signed Given and Glen Johnson. Ouch. That's gotta hurt.

Saint Charlie Posted 11 July, 2015 Posted 11 July, 2015 It's Stoke, who cares. That Bojan looked to be a decent player before his knee injury though. He is back in training now I think. Good player.
Saint Charlie Posted 11 July, 2015 Posted 11 July, 2015 Delph to City is depressing. Is there anyone who breaks through for England from a non top 6 team and doesn't move the following summer?
SuperSAINT Posted 11 July, 2015 Posted 11 July, 2015 Delph to City is depressing. Is there anyone who breaks through for England from a non top 6 team and doesn't move the following summer? Delph now STAYING at Villa.

Viking Warrior Posted 11 July, 2015 Posted 11 July, 2015 Given all the defensive players United have or in the process of buying do you think they at loan Luke shaw back to us ? Do we want him back?
Saint Charlie Posted 11 July, 2015 Posted 11 July, 2015 Given all the defensive players United have or in the process of buying do you think they at loan Luke shaw back to us ? Do we want him back? They haven't brought in any left backs or been linked to any that Ive seen. Its more likely Dany N'Guessan wins the Balon d'OR next season than Shaw coming back here on loan.
Restark19 Posted 11 July, 2015 Posted 11 July, 2015 Delph now STAYING at Villa. Rumour is he failed the medical. Not sure if true or not
