http://www.first4lcfc.co.uk/blog/le...-atletico-and-inter-milan-for-psg-midfielder/ ... unfortunately it's from Proud's favourite source ... realistically we don't have much chance up against Athletico Madrid and Inter Milan ... but isn't it fookin great to be competing for players of that ilk?
It's always worth bunging in a bid for these sorts of players. They know they will get to play in almost every game with a team like us whereas they may spend half the season warming the bench in some of the worlds top teams. The EPL is also strong draw for them, even in a team in the lower-half. It's happened before!
Just get me any CM, please! Barton, Bullard, Beckham, a substitute from Burkina Faso, Busquets, Bentley, ANYONE! Just ANYONE!!
Well maybe not Barton, Bullard or Beckham but I agree with the sentiment, we really need someone here.
Im all for panic buying now, just get anyone, pay through the roof, get them on a free from Quorn FC, i dont care. Just ANYONE!
Motta just isn't going to happen. People after the big names havent learnt from QPR and even under Sven NP pulled a blinder by getting Cambiasso but it doesnt mean we will get another on that level or that we need one We need a quality premier League class midfielder not a world class midfielder. Cambiasso was amazing for us on many levels but we have to keep perspective on what were after
I will stop banging on about this soon, but in huddlestone you are replacing cambiassos corners, free kicks, most similiar passing range, likes playing from deep....
Motta would definitely be a great Cambiasso replacement, but I don't think we're going to get another WTF signing in midfield any time soon.
. disagree on certain aspects (first time in a while. ) .. Motta is unlikely I agree but the signing of Cambiass put a marker down for the club as to our intent and ambition (I'd also note that I suspect that Nigel Pearson 's involvement was only one of a number that secured Cambiasso's signing) ... I do expect us to compete for names and won't be surprised to see other 'well known ' signings'.because, quite simply ... money talks ... and we have it ..
