    Wow, this thread has erupted into transfer fun. I thought it would be mid January before things heated up. Now we start to quibble over the price, that should slow things down a bit. Still, much prefered than speculation over our young players.

    Be made the scapegoat as a succession of mistakes and generally bad performances lead to bad form which flipped the moment he was dropped. Yeah, poor Aaron.

    Didn't mean about that post really, I just mean over the whole issue?. Why can you only see that a player would come here for money and not to be part of what is happening at our club?. Do you honestly think Cortese would pay stupid over the top wages just to get a player? I don't think so. Why can't it be he has been sold a dream and he wants to be part of it?.

    I leave for dinner for an hour or so and typically the interesting stuff happens in that hour. He will be a quality signing. My avatar change seems to have done the trick again! :wink:

    Most players still play football for a love of the game and would probably do it for minimum wage if they had to. Many footballers are young men without families or mortgages tieing them to a particular location. It's hardly surprising that they move around a lot. They'd be mental to turn down a better job for triple the money.

    Forgive me Dan, slow to the uptake this evening, hence me replying to this two pages late.

    Do you think the top European clubs can just get all the top player due to prestige or maybe because they offer very good wages? Every players is in it for the money.

    Get a grip, the only time I 'jump on your back' is when you come up with all the stupid player names.

    Jees you two - you could always PM eachother to argue or get a room.

    The rest of us can just basque in the hope that we may be signing a quality player...

    They want more money, eh? Offer them another 5 million Euros if they throw in Radja Nainggolan.

    I think it also demonstrates we have money and we have an eye for proper talent.

    Now, where are those people who wanted Dawson from Spurs...
