People complaining about the fee for Snodgrass being at around £8m it seems.

2014, SNODGRASS at 26 (£8m) previous 2 seasons 40 games 7 goals and 33 games 7 goals. After two seasons at Norwich culminating in relegation.

2012, MATT JARVIS at 26 (£11m, also a club record fee for West Ham) previous 2 seasons 41 games 5 goals and 39 games 8 goals. After these two seasons Wolves a very similar team to Norwich were relegated and sold their best player.

Snodgrass is a better player than Jarvis and is going to be cheaper also so it's not just us that have paid big for a winger who was bought from a relegated club.
 
So it's not deal done, just that Norwich have accepted 8m?




Wouldn't want us go near that. Think he's worth about 5 to be honest. Still, if someone is willing to pay that then that's what he'll go for.

You're forgetting that Jarvis is English so there's 5m before you even start.

The BBC are reporting £6M as the fee that's been accepted.

Depending on who you listen to, the fee varies. The Beeb just say "a fee in excess of £6M", the (local) Daily fail say it is £7M but could eventually rise to 8 providing certain add on clauses - and no one ever seems to know what they are - are met. Although it is an inflated price - as others have said the rise in TV £££££ means we are living in days on inflated prices - you were never in for him anyway.

We were the "HULL INTERESTED IN SNODGRASS, along with a number of Premier League clubs".


I.e. You were the only ones looking at him, but the story needed more to it.


Hoping we're after the younger, better Norwich winger.
 
Overpaid for sure but he improves the team. We will be going into the new season with Jelly, Long, and Snodgrass all who we did not have at the beginning of last season. Its looking good for us.

You mean the younger, better, English one who'll probably cost double what Snodgrass would?

You'll likely have to pay whatever we've paid for Snodgrass (ie. too much), maybe more because he's younger and on a longer contract.

I'd stretch to 8m. That wouldn't be too much for someone his quality and age.


He's a real talent IMO.
 
If demand governs the price, then I'd expect Redmond to cost a lot more than Snodgrass. Plenty of suitors out there for him.

I'd like to know whose negotiating these deals.

£16m on two players, one who was relegated & the other a reserve player, is alot of dough.

Hope i'm wrong & it works out for City.

£16m for Livermore and Snodgrass is cheap by PL spending. But it wont be £16m in one go. Whatever the actual fee is (and nobody on here knows for sure) it will be the final total at whatever point within the deals. Hull City being in the PL this time next season and it will be very good / cheap business.

I hope this isn't Bruce and Sunderland again. He seems to do well on a relative shoe-string. However give him some money and he seems to start buying ****e.

Hardly shi.te ffs. I dont like Snodgrass but he is a quality PL player and quality costs.

I'd rather have Snodgrass playing for us, than against us, but if the reported fee is true, we've overpaid again.

No we have not. Get out of poundland ffs olm. We are now shopping @ Sainsburys.


originallambrettaman said:
I think a player from who's played well for a lower Premier League team, who's in the last year of his deal(and won't sign another one), is worth £5m tops.

Things are just getting out of hand, last season players like Livermore and Snodgrass would be £4m, it's the new TV deal that's made clubs feel too flush again.

I think i pay far too much for my deisel but if i dont then my 4 x 4 does not go. You have to pay the going rate and we have done. £8m or whatever it is ?? by PL standards is nothing. Being in the PL in 12 months time and it will be wonga well spent.

I'm confident at the end of this season everyone will be saying how 8 million was actually a great deal.

Spot on ^^^^^^ this. Well said sir. <ok>

I expect Tickles to post in a couple of hours and tell us that it's breaking news...

You would. Your not the sharpest tool in the box. Simply a tool. It was known last night by some he was coming for a medical today.

Come on Macca, you know Tickles is at the snooker club brokering our next deal!

I was actually but only for snooker. Talking of deals - it has all gone very quiet on Tom Ince now.:wink::biggrin:
 
Why are we spending aroun £15million on two midfielders...surely other parts of our squad need strengthening? we need a decent replacement for Figgy...hes awful.

Another striker too

We have bid 4 mill for Dawson.

Also we only need a back up striker and there have been a few rumors linking us to a couple people.
