The Kraken Posted 4 January, 2023 Share Posted 4 January, 2023 Is this Orsic fella actually any good? Just turned 30, never played in one of Europe’s top leagues, spent about 3-4 years playing in China and Korea, has scored 2 in 27 for his national side. I can’t say I’ve noticed much of him before, what am I missing? Other than that he’s quite good at long range shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not going to lie I don't know a great deal about him, but he does have some decent pedigree at decent levels (Europe, World Cups, Euro's etc). The question marks I have is why he's never made a big move in his career up to now, why is he so cheap, and why both WBA and Burnley came so close to signing him over the last couple of years, but then didn't. Be interesting to see how this one pans out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saints4Prem Posted 4 January, 2023 Share Posted 4 January, 2023 Dipped into the usual transfer window rubbish. No one except the two clubs know what we are prepared to pay but I am sure there are other irons in the fire. Reading the last few pages in general the support on here for the team is shocking I even read someone wrote "I hope we go down". If people on here were a bit more patient and supportive some would not spout such utter crap. Unless any of you have billionaire or small country status the owners will do it their way and will not change despite the crap written here. I thought this was a transfer window forum could we not have a separate forum for the people slagging off the club, team and owners we are supposed to support. I will be supporting my team tonight and if it doesn't go our way I will not boo and further attack the teams confidence. COYS 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t say I’ve noticed much of him before, what am I missing? Other than that he’s quite good at long range shots. He's been very good in the Europe, which is naturally my only experience of watching him. He scored against Chelsea and AC Milan in the CL this year. He scored against West Ham and twice against Sevilla the year before, and a hattrick against Spurs the year before that. His Champions League record is 12 games, 6 goals and 1 assist. His Europa League record is 30 games, 13 goals and 6 assists. Adding a goal and two assists in limited minutes at the World Cup this year. Even if you (somewhat fairly) want to disregard his club record, the numbers above are still very impressive. There's obviously red flags like you say when a player has just turned 30 and hasn't gone a level above Croatia in his career, but there's enough decent signs with his European record for him to be worth a punt in my eyes. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 4 January, 2023 Share Posted 4 January, 2023 48 minutes ago, Turkish said: what? We've offered €5m, they want €7m, about £6.1m where did you get £12m from? What is ludicrous is how much do you think we should pay for an proven exerperienced international player from a team that reached the world cup semi final? Less than an 18 year old left back who is at best 3rd choice and until this season had never started a first team game perhaps? That’s what DT just offered to pay me, straight off the bat because I asked for it and he said he was essentially desperate, needed players now and didn’t want to haggle. That’s the point, it’s very easy to sit here and chuck Monopoly money around and shout, "just get it done FFS," when you’re not the one signing the cheques. Lots of thoroughly mediocre players have played in WC semi-finals, he was up against our very own Mr S. Boufal in the playoff. The fact that he’s 30, has only ever scored twice for Croatia, despite playing for a decent team in an attacking position, and nobody outside of the Croatian League has ever come in for him are a bit of a red flag. Not say he’s bad but this seems to be a punt. For comparison Filip Djuricic has a better club and international record than this guy, so let’s maybe calm down a bit. 17 minutes ago, Smirking_Saint said: I don’t necessarily disagree with the overall sentiment and I understand how transfers work but we’re discussing this particular one and Id say.. if the reports are true, terms are agreed with the player but we’re arguing over 1-2m euros for a player that has the ability to make a difference is bonkers Especially if it ends up in him choosing a rival team instead Which is why I don’t think that’s necessarily the case. Assuming this isn’t all just agent talk trying to smoke out another bidder somewhere else, the idea that we wouldn’t fork out £6-8m for the player that keeps us up is, as you say, bonkers. The club will know far better than us the costs involved in relegation, so if we won’t pay it we likely don’t think he’s worth it. Also, he would only choose a rival if they offered him a better deal, not Zagreb. He won’t give a s**t what fee is agreed, only the cut he’s getting, which assuming these rumours are true he is happy with. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted Bates Statue Posted 4 January, 2023 Share Posted 4 January, 2023 5 hours ago, Chez said: The compensation to Luton was £2.5m according to many sources, rather than £4-5m. We don't know how much we paid off Ralph. His salary was guessed at £6m, and with 18 months left we would thus be legally required (potentially) to pay him £9m. There would be no choice - unless you mean the choice was to keep him or not? Also, his contract (and potential pay off if sacked) was agreed prior to SR coming in. I was being facetious, a spin on the possibility that we might have failed to sign a couple of attacking players in the summer due to arguing over pennies, while having a substantial net spend in the same transfer window. To answer your original question, I don't know - probably just down to fans grumbling on the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derry Posted 4 January, 2023 Share Posted 4 January, 2023 I've watched Moffi playing (if you could call it that) for Lorient against Montpellier, bottom third, 0-2, and Anger bottom 2-1. If he touched the ball more than three times over both games I missed it. Never made it out of a trot and looked totally disinterested. Absolutely no goal threat. Lorient were poor as well. I thought we were bad but these two games took it to a whole new level of crap. Chez saw the same matches. He looked athletic but he'd make Moi look like an all action dynamo.
