No news from our kid. He was fuming last night at the super league and the lass from the shop is out of bounds. BV
Mings went for £8m from Ipswich without any Premiership / International experience , Mings is probably a more cultured defender then Chester though but you cant help but compare the two when it comes to transfer valuations .
Hey Let's face it there will be no blow your socks off signings. From prince to pauper in 12 short months.
I always thought Brady would be gone if we got anything over £6m, but I'd be disappointed if we took less than £8m for Chester.
Hull City star says he wants out Hull City star Abel Hernandez has told the Italian media that he wants to return to Italy and ideally with Serie A side Torino. The Uruguay international joined Hull City last season but they were relegated to the Championship last season, and therefore the player wants out. Calciomercato have reported on comments Hernandez made in which he said he hoped Torino would be able to sign him this summer. He believes they play good attacking football and it would be good to link up with the likes of fellow South American Maxi Lopez. The Hull City forward believes the current coach of Torino would be good for him as he remembers him during his time at Bari when Hernandez was playing for Palermo. "It would be great if the Taurus could take me. They play great football, in recent years the attackers have always scored a lot of goals, and Ventura is a very good coach who I well remember during his days with Bari. It would be great to play with Maxi Lopez and Quagliarella, I want to return to Italy,” said the Hull City striker on his future. Hernandez signed for Hull just before the transfer deadline last summer, but he only scored four goals in twenty Premier League games. Despite this Hernandez showed during his spell in Italy with Palermo that he could be an effective player, and his international record for Uruguay is also impressive. http://sportwitness.ning.com/forum/topics/hull-city-star-says-he-wants-out Is anyone ever going to bloody bid for him,, he's been linked with pretty much every club in Serie A?
Today's useless piece of information - James Chester is now our only senior player not signed by Bruce.
I think you should stop now or that special relationship we are supposed to have will be completely destroyed.
Manchester United "let go" of the best young midfielder in the world who is now wanted by Madrid/Barca/Man City etc. Safe to say they do make mistakes
Just checking whether Pique was released - he was. Another United player that was hotly tipped for stardom has also been released in June. Tom Thorpe - with Phelan here I do wonder if he'll be on the radar at City? He's tipped for a move to the Championship and they think he'll be the next Pogba or Pique. He's a centre half so we could cash in on Chester and sign a freebie? Thorpe was the Man Utd U21s Captain, he fits the young and hungry description Bruce used until he started having a look at Taylor and Palacios.
They did, but not because they thought he wasn't good enough, he always wanted to play for Barca and complained a lot about Fergie not giving him enough opportunities, the player forced through the move. The same was also true of Pogba, who simply refused to sign a new deal.
He was mentioned on here a while ago, around the time the released lists were produced. If I remember correctly, he either had injury problems or personality problems, lacking motivation etc. Just looking around, it seems he's joined Rotherham: http://www.skysports.com/football/n...oss-steve-evans-buzzing-by-tom-thorpe-capture
Pogba just wouldn't sign a new deal as he both wanted too much money and playing time, which Manchester couldn't guarantee him at the time. He wasn't released because they didn't think he was good enough.
****ter - seems like the fat man at Rotherham has inexplicably landed a decent player. I wonder if we had our budget situation sorted out when most other clubs had, we may also have been able to sign a player of his quality.
