Yes you will be pleased to know I'm not completely crazy (yet) I was being sarcastic! Although if he fancies adding the odd wonder goal to his repertoire I would not complain Frankly it would be a remarkable signing, but sadly I doubt there is any truth in it. I would love to be proved wrong!
Fair enough, apologies for misinterpreting that post. I actually agree with what you say there, as much as I would love it if we pulled it off, I can't really see it.
No worries as you say sarcasm does not come across very well on here. Well lets keep our fingers crossed there maybe an element of truth to the story
Surely not. Now this would be a signing. Saw this tweet from a Portuguese journalist on twitter a few minutes ago. @joao_ruela: Norwich offered â¬10M for Van Wolfswinkel and is waiting for a reply till sunday. Sporting Lisbon is looking to sell him.
I have no objection to City pushing the boat out for this one (if we are to stay in the PL year on year we need to do this sometimes), looks like he's worth every penny
Oh my, if we signed this bloke it would be an unbelievable coup for us but to be honest it seems an even more unrealistic target. This bloke is the bees knees!
He looks to be top player but the Youtube compilation won't be showing his misses will it. I think the manager would be basing his valuation on more than that.
Even if he scores at a ratio of 1:6 (one goal from 6 attempts) it would be impressive, providing he gets 6 chances or more per game
I've seen his name on other boards, like Newcastle qpr etc I think I would have a melt down IF this came off 10million euros!
There has been a lot of speculation relating to both these two clubs, hardly surprising in the Geordies case as the rats look to be jumping ship all of a sudden and QPR, well because it is easier to draw up a list of who has not been linked in the last 18 months
Standard Transfermarkt: Ricky van Wolfswinkel, 23, striker, valued at £9.2m! So anything under that would be a steal! 85 goals in a 201 game career, just over a goal every other game. Apparently Liverpool were linked with paying £24m for him back in September. I would be over the moon if we signed this guy, he looks the real deal.
I am really excited by this, even more so than the Graham and Hooper interest however, I just feel like we are going to go back to signing CMS by the end of the window. I have no problem with that really, but it will be a let down now we are actually being linked with a higher calibre of player. I hope it doesnt happen. I really cant see us signing 'The Wolf' (I have already taken this lad into my heart and given him a nickname) but god would I love us too.
Could be a grrrrr8 signing and would love it to happen - less than a week to go till the end of the window!!!! I just hope we do actually sign someone and as I've said before I would prefer one quality player as opposed to a few average players!!!
