Transfer Rumours Bowen

Dunno if we have a thread about him. But I'm sure if we do one of our 17 mods can merge them. preferably not the one who lives off cans and bitterness.

Latest reports are Newcastle want to put in a "firm" bid for Bowen, maybe the player Bruce and Ashley discussed about in their meeting.

Good signing imo.

 

The next shearer

 

We shouldn’t be clarting about with this bloke just pay the 20m ffs.16 goals and 5 assists already this season.

 

My only concern is can he make the step.. gayle scored loads in that league.

 

Leeds are planning at £15 million bid, a £3 million loan offer included.

I say just slam like you said, £20 Mil down and just take him.

 

Im not sure ...

 

Why not, Mr. "£20 mil is nothing in the modern game"

 

I just want to disagree with you

 

I did really want him, but having seen you recommending it I promptly took another look at his 50 goals and I was left unconvinced

 

No. First bid £6M with £2M add ons and half his wages he’s currently on.

Don’t forget who does the negotiating.

 

Could come in handy next season

 

When do serious bidders announce that they want to put a bid in? Just do it -dont tell us you want to do it.

 

Our only ways of getting quality premiership players are either to bring them through or buy "potential". Occasionally a good quality player will become available who we can actually get but even then there is a feeling of "how good can they actually be if they've chosen us?".

Bowen is a worthy gamble and even if he does poorly we'd get most of our money back selling him on.

 

I like how apparently Bruce has got assurances from Ashley that he will be backed in the transfer market in the meeting held THIS WEEK when we are half way through the window.

 

So earlier than usual.

 

I suspect they do all the sniffing about and when they know where they stand they talk to bruce on what his preferences are .

 

To let other clubs know so they stop playing hardball with another target elsewhere the press know **** all about

 

Clubs rarely ever do business at the start of a window. It's usually looking around having a sniff and checking prices.

Now we have a list and we discuss reality.

 

I just said that, but with greater accuracy

 

Yeah but people are sick of reading your ****e 24/7
