    I'm not understanding the 50% stuff, we cant do that in this country. They must want 7m to buy him?

    We can't buy a share of a player. I reckon you are right about the 7m if we are actually in for him

    Sunderland offered 4,500,000 million Euros to be paid in 4 installments in exchange for 50% of Giay. San Lorenzo rejection. 7 cash suits to start a conversation. far away

    English clubs can't part own players, so this is a none starter

    I was referring to Ekwah and Lihadji but we have been after Cresswell in the past. Probably want to peddle Wright first

    Wigan can beat us to all they players they want by throwing money they can’t afford at them, fact is they are screwed.

    Aye would be a CB pairing with the potential to be a PL CB pairing

    Do you know if Ekwah is a loan or a permanent signing? You were the first on that one I think, hence why I ask.

    I don't expect Ballard to be here long. I could easily see him going to the Premier League in a year or so, for 10 million plus.

    Pie in the sky, obviously haven’t done their homework on English football regulations.

    Not sure mate tbh. With our set up and West Hams being polar opposite I could see player wanting a permanent as he's not getting a look in, plus Moyes is a cock. Not sure if there owner dying has held it up though

    I'm sure one of the tweets about him said they owe his former club a cut of any future fee so maybe they mean that his current club will only keep half the fee I.e if we have offered 4.5 they will only keep 2.25m so they want 7m in order to keep 3.5m and then 3.5m to the previous club. If that makes sense.

    Agreed. He hasn’t played many games but his quality is clear to see. Looks a bargain at £2M.

    Ballard is a top 5 CB in the championship at the minute. He would walk into every team in the league IMO, boy is class and as you said what a bargain

    Rubberface on RTG maintains Dajaku is on 15k a week.

    He, along with multiple players, get their haircut by Edward, at The Keep in Sunderland. He is absolutely not on 15k a week.

    Also, apparently, neither the club nor player wanted to sign permanently but due to obligation with Union Berlin, we had no choice.

    Rubberface gets next to nothing right.

    There is no way we agreed to pay him £15k a week before we signed off on an obligation to buy.

    Have no idea why people care what footballers are on tbh what’s that got to do with fans? I don’t need to inform the club how much I’m on as a supporter.

    I'd guess they feel a sense of importance or that they are legitimate. It seems to be the cool thing to be ITK, or a pretender :emoticon-0138-think:emoticon-0138-think
