Summer 2013 Transfer Rumour Thread - Mk2

Rule 1 of being a twitter itk: Make up a massive quantity of bullshit, a couple guesses may turn out to be right, stupid people will see this and convince themselves that the account is genuinely itk. Rinse and repeat.

Don't forget to mix in a few things that everyone knows already (like Cardiff and Tom Ince).

Hello my friends. long time no see.

Hopefully even longer next time.

Yes that is also very important. Cling on to news that is widely reported else where and convince people it is you who broke the story.

 

[Joe!]

That TransfersToBe guy also says we've enquired about Chalobah. Can't really see it.

You'll never get rid of me for long.

Who are you?

Transfers To Be ‏@TransfersToBe 1m

I can confirm that #Saintsfc have accepted a bid from Real #Sociedad of £14.2m for midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin.

Haha, what a joke. Where would they get that kind of money from?

 

[Dan]

£14.2m? Throw in Illaramendi and we'll think about it.

 

[Joe!]

Illaramendi might be going to Real Madrid.

 

[fran-MLs little camera]

When you consider how much you earn by staying in the PL, the price is laughable for our player of the season. Spider is worth more to us than anyone else would pay. (P.S. rubbish rumour).

 

[pass the football]

They will be in the champions league next season/

You only get £7m for taking part in the group stages and they haven't even qualified for those yet, do you really think they will spend double that on one player? Besides, it would take much more than that for us to sell him.

I think you get a pretty sizeable sum for finishing 4th in La Liga as well, and if they sell Illaramendi they'll presumably get quite a lot for him. Still don't believe this rumour though.

€1m for finishing 4th. Obviously they get more TV money from the CL as well but they are not in a position to buy Schneiderlin.

 

[Dan]

I can't say with any certainty, but I'd think we'd want more than £14.2m?

 

[lamby]

Been out all day. What have I missed? I probably know the answer is sod all!.

I don't think we'd sell him for less than double that, frankly.

One of us certainly is. What would you accept for him then?

If there is one player that we wouldn't even dream of selling, surely it's him?

 

[AL.]

d e l u d e d

I don't think he is. He is worth that to us, and we don't need the money.

£19-20m
