Its on. Why bother activating the clause if you're not going to see it through? Its not like we don't know his wages is it?? Looks like our first £100k / wk player I fear
I thought Orlando Rolando had plumped for Milano? Can't say I blame him. I quite fancy some pumpkin gnocchi now
I dont think it will be the £100k barrier. He has already stated publicly that he misses his family and cildren as they have stayed in England during his spell in Russia. Although he'd be a high earner (Remy region) its still a pay cut for him personally. Come on Samba, come back home!!
Rolando is going to Napoli. I would hope we offer him less wages as he wants to get out. The release clause is £10, their manager has said he left training camp without saying a word to anyone and is going to an English club. We werent mentioned by name.
Release clause was a tenner? Blimey maybe we should have clubbed together and bought him Teez stylee?
Guus Hiddink: "It's not a very good situation," Hiddink told Sport Express. "Samba was with us during this season, began preparations for the winter training camps, and suddenly this opportunity arose with an English club. "Yesterday he left for England," Hiddink added. "Unfortunately we didn't even have chance to say goodbye to him. Everything has developed very quickly. And Hiddink appeared resigned to losing Samba to Harry Redknapp's side. "It's a problem we have to deal wish," the Dutchman said. "We have to face facts. I think in the next few days the details of his exit will be finalised."
Please god let's hope this is true - we need him so much now Nelson has gone, if he comes make him captain as a statement of intent............. nail biting time now for the next few days chaps................ !
Today is Wednesday and tomorrow is Thursday - now I'm sure thats two different days Grinning ........ )
Please Please Please Please Hope a bigger club doesn't nip in and steal him. What a signing this would be. I'll cream myself. Big fan.
Hill has just been named captain for the rest of the season. Would be harsh to nick it off him. But I see your point, surely Samba will become our future captain if he signs.
