Bring in that CB and i will be mega relaxed and happy. I'm a bae fan so i'm not worried as long as he is fit (which he is according to twit). After that its one in one out in terms of important players, but some deadwood can go too. Bale could **** things
I'm not bothered about a LB to be honest. Benny, Rose and Vertonghen can do the job between them IMO. I'd much rather see certain midfielders leave and a creative player brought in.
Is anyone slightly confused by the amount of money that we seem to be spending? I suggested a while ago that the best idea if we were selling Bale would be to agree the deal and ask Real not to publicise it until we'd spent the money. Partnership bollocks and all that. That way we wouldn't get ripped off by clubs who knew we had £80m+ burning a hole in Levy's wallet. So far we've signed Paulinho (£17m), Chadli (£6m), Soldado (£26m) and it seems that Capoue and Coentrao (£8.6m and £13m) might be on their way. That's a hell of a lot of money and we've only sold Caulker and let a few players go.
caulker and Demps have brought us in £15m, so if/when coentrao and Capoue sign, that makes it about £55m. - how much do we get in TV money?
FFS ym! WTFAYTA? Caulker and Demps were £14m. Also the tv money means all prem clubs have money in the coffers. Swansea and Norwich have spent handsomely too
Bumper TV deal plus a few departures with the promise of more out the door. I'm not concerned, everyone's been spending big, except l'Arse
The Fail are claiming that Capoue's joined for £8.6m. Only problem with that is that they've used the word EXCLUSIVE as part of their headline. Has that word been redefined since I last checked?
Also remember RE Coentrao, we could be using the money owed on Modric for that one, so we might not be spending anything on him. Infact, they might be giving us money!
Unlikely, they only owe us £12m don't they? Or do you mean coentrao shaped money? I wouldn't be surprised if they are doing us a deal for £15m on him in order to push through Bale for next summer
"Veljkovic has to be fancying his chances at the moment." Veljkovic is apparently rated by the Academy staff.
The BBC are also confident that we've signed Capoue, but they're not claiming and EXCLUSIVE like the Fail, for some reason: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/23620554
