Stuff what the bookies say, you tell me why we are favourites to go down! I'd say the 2 teams below us who have less points are more likely and the team that are 4th bottom with the same points as us are just as likely as us. Players will look at us and think, they have some decent players and a decent manager and are one win off getting out of relegation. We ain't that bad a prospect
Exactly, then you will see I agreed with you and said he isn't amazing but he's far from the worst player we could have
He's 27 and coming into his prime. That makes him 13 months older than £20m rated Championship midfielder Tom Cairney. He's also the same age as Schneiderlin. If he was in his early thirties, then yes price may well come down. Given he's produced some of his most consistent football for the club in Midfield and defence - £10m is the club selling it's self well short versus other fees clubs are commanding for their players. http://m.hulldailymail.co.uk/a-stat...ke-livermore/story-30071581-detail/story.html Have a look at his stats in the link above and tell me we won't miss him. **Edit** You'll struggle to buy a replacement that brings as much to the team as Livermore for £10m.
Totally gutted re Livermore, but if we can land Joao Teixeira I'd be more than happy again, super player.
The thing with Cairney is that he's rated at 20m by who? Fulham that's who. I don't see any other club agreeing and buying him. So is he really worth that...the market will tell. My guess is no.
Which was his value at the time, we had a sell on fee which was a good amount for someone who wasn't getting a game & unlikely to.
cant see Joao Teixeira coming here, he has only been at porto 1 season, although he has been on loan at some chumpionship clubs, think Brighton was 1, if memory serves. cant remember just how well he did though. He might fancy a spell in EPL. <shrug>
harlem is not a town in holland.its a suberb of new york city usa. haarlem is a city in the netherlands and is the provincial capitol of north holland. View attachment 65244
going to be a **** squad for the championship next season shouldn't go down to league 1 though surely?
lose snodgrass and livermore replace with a guy who played for brighton and brentford silvas ****ed before he even starts hello sheff utd hello huddersfield hello scunthorpe hull city aka fc porto reserves
I'm sure with what he has already achieved in his short managerial career he ain't worried that people think he is ****ed,i think he knows what he is doing and what he needs to keep us up. I think we will have a more exciting attacking team a renewed belief.many players go to lower league clubs to progress on loan it does not mean they are crap they are just gaining experience,we had jak in reserves but as it turns out it worked wonders for him now silva gives him a chance and he is playing well.
You obviously watched a different game than others. Bruce Jnr. would have been our best player until he went off injured.
I know somebody on here has that signature about talking in extremes but - ruddy Nora - does this board take it literally... Jake is an ok player and £10m is a fair price, nothing more nothing less. We haven't robbed WBA blind nor have they got a steal and the sky is about to fall in. Alex is an ok squad player, nothing more nothing less. You know what you get from him, he'll never sulk or hide nor will he set the league alight. Giving him a contract was not a disgrace nor was it a brilliant piece of business. It was just ok. There are shades of grey in football, not everything is black and white*. * racist
