Quite funny that he'd be the third player they've nicked off Leeds. Certainly seems legitimate since Snodgrass has been in the press saying he has doubts over Leeds' amibition and has delayed signing his new contract
Weird that he decides that now, they can't be any less ambitious with Warnock now than they have been for the last few years. Anyone else think Norwich might go down next year? I can see Swansea staying up again, they have a lot of quality players but looking at Norwich's squad I don't see it. They may lose Holt and beyond that who do they have of any significance in the PL?
I wasn't implying that he wasn't worth the price quoted- simply that there may be better ways to spend £7.2m as a newly(ish) promoted team.
Cech just signed for another four years at Chelsea. And they've got Eden Hazard for a bargain £32m. £32m ffs, the world's gone completely bonkers.
Hope Hazard flops, I usually like footy players to enjoy their Premier League careers when they sign from foreign clubs, but he's kind of a stuck up tosser, the way he went on about saying he was DEFINITELY gonig to sign for a Manchester club, but wouldn't reveal which one, it just seemed tedious and petty to fans
Actually, SSN this morning report that the Eden Hazard deal will cost Chelsea £78m when you add up the transfer fee, wages 0ver 5 years, signing on fee and the agents fee. ffs, £78m for what ? He had better do well otherwise Roman wont be a happy chappie thats for sure. Chelsea also in for and favs for Porto's HULK. £30m-ish. Solomon Kalou could sign for Schalke in the german league as he has been made a good offer SSN also report.
Hazard's transfer fee isn't £78m, it's talking about the deal on the whole. It's roughly: £32m transfer fee £10m agent fee () £9m per year in wages (around £170k a week) £9m deal X four-year contract = £78m.
Erm....thats what i said. OLM just mentioned the transfer fee being £32. Nobody mentioned £78m as being the fee. Looks like Brucie boy wont be going to Wigan then if the BR and RM rumours are true. and Whats with Norwich going after TWS players again.? Interesting if it(Snodgrass) happens
Glad you think so. Then again IF i were a multi - billionaire then yes £32m would be a small amount. Blackburns Yakubu has a £1m get out clause in it SSN report. Now that is a bargain for someone like Wigan, imo.
Agreed, but they have Pogrebnyak so I'm not sure they'd need him. Can see him going to Villa as a replacement for the departing Heskey.
