  1. For those who want to know what a Ward-Prowse and Steve Davis are meant to be aspiring to do here are more of his stats.
  2. I've got a bone on finally if this is true for Georgie watch: "Courted by the biggest names from the championship of France (Marseille, Monaco and Paris SG), Georginio Wijnaldum (24 years) in England also interested. Newcastle and Southampton would enlist the Dutch international, and the Saints would even gone on the offensive. Indeed, as reported by the Guardian , Southampton PSV have offered more than € 15 million to secure the services of their midfield, author of 14 goals in this season Eredevisie. Stay tuned." http://www.footmercato.net/breves/southampton-une-offre-pour-wijnaldum_156345 Edit - I'm so convinced I've changed my avatar. Him Claise and Vilhena are awesome options.
  3. His 2 goals is more than both our Attacking Midfielders managed between them all season. I think he is a player who can play with tactical discipline but also has tricks.
  4. Purely for my own hope I have finally found a link to us and Wijnaldum as I think he is quality, unfortunately its just the Mail but I'll take it. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-3135798/Transfer-News-LIVE-Manchester-United-Arsenal-Chelsea-Liverpool-latest-plus-Premier-League-Europe.html Dutch article basically saying he hate's Advocaat cos he plays him out of position, Newcastle are too crap for him and he should wait for a good club like Swansea/Everton or Stoke to come in for him http://www.dichtbij.nl/eindhoven/sport/artikel/4048865/newcastle-united-is-niet-goed-genoeg-voor-wijnaldum-column.aspx Maybe I've set my sights too low for an AM who scores goals.
  5. just out of interest what does a scholar who signs professionally earn as a guesstimate ? presume for someone like Slats it would be 1-2k a week ? or am I completely misaligned?
  6. I like it think it looks good, Barry would do his nut though, not enough stripes.
  7. Tenuous link alert The Bilderberg conference is being held in Austria at a Liebherr owned hotel. Make up whatever rumours you will
  8. I'm taking that and running with it.
  9. Dude we don't want logic in here, we want wild rumours and inflated opinions on players we think we know but don't hahaha
  10. The problem with that is perception, the rest of the team don't care they just see a bloke who is potentially worse than them being paid f*ck loads. If that 150k + is true then Rodgers is gonna have a lot of people coming to him.
  11. Makes sense, he is their 5th best rated player and scored 5 goals and assisted 3 so perfect Liverpool signing hahahaha
  12. Every weekend for the last 3yrs and various England games for the English "Xavi"
  13. yeah this one has been floating around for a few months and I defo like what it would look like he would bring to the team
  14. I keep working by the mantra that if I say it enough it will happen. If I had to choose who would make the biggest difference to us then Wijnaldum would exponentially improve our Attacking Midfielders of (Davis/JWP/Djurcic/Gaston) and thus our team. He has pace, assists and an eye for a goal, I would spend 15mil on him without blinking if we got 25mil for Morgan purely on the goals he scores and makes from a position we hardly get anything from offensively. Stats this season- 14 goals & 3 assists including Europe - http://www.whoscored.com/Players/33568 I think it would be a good step for him, he gets a pay rise and plays on a bigger stage and can prove himself to the big 4 here and bigger teams abroad. The only concern is the CL opportunity with Italian/Portuguese/Spanish clubs where he would also make a difference but perhaps not get paid as well.
  15. Martinez also bought Kone
  16. It all depends what sort of guy each player is. For instance, if I was a footballer I would value quality of life and enjoyment as much as the money on offer. Pay me 1000 a day and have to work on an oil rig or pay me 500 and I work where I live and I will choose where i live as I get to enjoy my life more. The only thing that fecks it up are agents as they would sell you to Bagdad United for enough money.
  17. He should just say his dream was to earn 50k per week rather than mention a club.
  18. Someone telly Harry Reed the bad news
  19. That list in itself is retarded. The nature of what they are measuring means that the dirtiest players i.e those with straight reds get 3 match ban so it takes fair bit out of their playing time (sissosko 6 games without looking at yellows), where as vic made more fouls as he nearly squeaked by the entire season without getting banned so played more games hence racked up more points. A better way would be to work out points to game ratios, calling MLG
  20. I have watched him 6-7 times this season and for 12 mil I would be all over that like a playboy model asking if I can fit their thong for them. Jordie Claise is very very good, excellent leader and more importantly will be one of those players who if they go to porto or italy for 2 yrs will cost double the price once his value is proved. He is a warrior with more finesse than Vic and can move forward a la morgan to set up chances and score goals. I also rate Vilhena though I think he is a longer term project than Jordy whose ready made now.
  21. Agreed for anyone interested look up Sabermetrics, i have chuckled at the moneyball interpretations on here though
  22. Exhibit A
