Summer 2013 Transfer Thread

[dennis tooth]

Go and get Honda. Milan are pissing about over an extra 1.5mill for him, offer cska 4/4.5 and we will get him.

 

I would love that, even if it means Numero gets his plus net spend argument certified.

[Reckoner]

Where do they get the transfer fee for Allen as £16.7 million and Sturridge 13.2million

 

yeah that's about £1million more than we are thought to have paid for each, I think the website operates in Euros and that was the exchange rate at time of press. Still not a huge difference.

From The Guardian:

 

Villas-Boas spoke of his admiration for Willian at a press conference on Monday and he would swell the manager's creative options, as he is able to play on the flank or behind the striker. Lamela is most at home on the right wing but he, too, can play as a No10.

 

Tottenham's technical director, Franco Baldini, who joined earlier in the summer from Roma, knows all about Lamela and he is driving the club's pursuit of him. Roma have just sold Pablo Osvaldo to Southampton and the loss of Lamela would not be popular among the club's fans but a tempting offer could yet be decisive. It is believed that Liverpool have also shown an interest in Lamela, together with Willian.

 

 

 

Certainly not going to get my hopes up.

[Josef Svejk]

Certainly not going to get my hopes up.

 

Not going to happen.

[Brownie]

I hate the fact that I laughed when I read the Lamela link.

[MLB]

Spurs will pay £30 million for him. We won't.

[Mustangt125]

But we offered 30M for Willian, and doesn't Lamela score more than Willian?

 

It's not specifically Willian that frosts people, but we have signed squad players and loans while Spurs have signed established international first teamers.

 

We were already behind them and they have strengthened 10 fold what we have.

Yet they only finished ahead of us because Bale was scoring 25 yard wonder goal winners every week.

 

Interesting to see how it plays out. They've signed cracking players but lost the best player in the league.

 

No guarantee that all these players will gel and add up to Bales influence

[russ1979]

Spurs will send a professional to get the deal done. We won't.

 

Fixed that for you

[fowler9]

I'd much rather have Lamela than Willian

 

Please go in for him and don't fuck it up!

[J-V]

But we offered 30M for Willian, and doesn't Lamela score more than Willian?

Yes, he does. He's a far better player than Willian. It's about time Roma sold us a good player.

[MLB]

I'd offer them Borini and £30 million in all likelihood. Just so we can sign a fucking player.

[Brownie]

The Times (Tony Barrett to be specific) is reporting tonight that we like Lamela but don't think he's worth £30M.

 

Next.

Oh dear. Who is doing our valuations? Code72?

[MLB]

Yevhen Olehovych Konoplianka (Ukrainian: Євген Олегович Коноплянка; born 29 September 1989) is a Ukrainian football midfielder who plays for Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk in the Ukrainian Premier League and the Ukraine national team. His main position is left-sided forward, but he can also play as a right-sided forward and as a centre-forward.

 

 

 

Just fucking do it already.

[J-V]

I'd offer them Borini and £30 million in all likelihood. Just so we can sign a fucking player.

Funnily enough I was thinking along those lines earlier. Knowing our luck though Borini's balls will drop and he'll turn into a top player.

[Gym Beglin]

Lamela ain't worth £30m.

 

I wouldn't be disappointed with Scott Sinclair, really.

[MLB]

Lamela ain't worth £30m.

 

I wouldn't be disappointed with Scott Sinclair, really.

 

 

Hahahaha.

 

 

You finally lived up to your name.

[fowler9]

Lamela ain't worth £30m.

 

.

 

he is by far the best player we've been linked with this summer imo and if we're going to spend that sort of money on anyone (realistic) it should be him

[TheHitman]

I'd say there is more chance of us selling Suarez to Arsenal than there is of us buying Lamela.

[J-V]

I'd say there is more chance of us selling Suarez to Arsenal than there is of us buying Lamela.

 

That's only because we probably value him at £15million.

[TheHowieLama]

Lamela mela mela ding dong.

 

[KevieG]

Maybe we just smoked Spurs out on the Willian deal.

 

The path is now clear for us to get our real targets!!

 

Munian would be in the countinho mould. Probably pick him up for less than 20 million.

[FrenchEyeGlass]

The fucking hilarity of us turning up our nose at Lamela. If we found Borini was worth £10m, Lamela is worth about fifty.

Tom Ince and Scott Sinclair.
