Window Cleaner Posted 30 July, 2014 Share Posted 30 July, 2014 Laid out along The Nicola Cortese corridor at St Mary's. took the safe key with him did he, seems like they can put it in but not take it out. Bit like the old night safe system that banks used to have really. Old metal trap door that traders shoved bags of cash in at the end of trading and after bank closing hours. Ah for the old days, never even got robbed either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plastic Posted 31 July, 2014 Share Posted 31 July, 2014 (edited) £28m (BBC) for Lukaku seems a lot to me. Good player, but not great. Wouldn't have wanted him for that price. Edited 31 July, 2014 by Plastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ENSKIED Posted 31 July, 2014 Share Posted 31 July, 2014 "a chat with Martinez on deadline day..." Surely this is a quote from when he went there on loan last year, not a recent one from his perm move. Can't see that terminology endearing to the Blue part of Liverpool "look at the players who came from here and went on to a BIG club . . . ." maybe a course on the intricacies of diplomatic language wouldn't go amiss. Always providing of course [source dependent] it's not a wind-up from the Red side of the divide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelman Posted 31 July, 2014 Share Posted 31 July, 2014 £28m (BBC) for Lukaku seems a lot to me. Good player, but not great. Wouldn't have wanted him for that price. 2012/13 - WBA 35 games 17 goals 2013/14 - Everton 31 games 15 goals. JRod 2012/13 - 35 games 6 goals 2103/14 - 33 games 15 goals So Lukaku has done it 2 seasons in a row, while JRod has only done it for one season. What are people talking about with Jay, £15m? Seems a bit of a disparity there, and to me shows that the common assumption that English players are over priced is not always true. Or rather, it's not just English players that are over priced.

JxgrSaint Posted 31 July, 2014 Share Posted 31 July, 2014 (edited) Not a transfer per se, but Ravel Morrison has beaten up 2 girls and been arrested so he might be off to ze clink. Need to adapt the Marlon King song for when we play West Ham, but Christ knows what Big Fat Sam's team will be like if the only player capable of not playing hoof ball is in prison and the £15m horse hasn't been put out of his misery yet.... http://m.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-28581181 Edited 31 July, 2014 by JxgrSaint Added link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelman Posted 31 July, 2014 Share Posted 31 July, 2014 That's "convenient" for Big Sam. He and the board seemed to be at loggerheads over Morrison and now it seems that Sam was in the right. But...it's such a shame that these kids have no idea how lucky they are and some just **** it away. Too much money at too early an age (or any age for that matter) has led some to think that they can behave as they want and that they are above the rest of us. Not the first person to do this, and certainly won't be the last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pap Posted 31 July, 2014 Share Posted 31 July, 2014 I'm jealous of Eveton - they have been linked with Lukaku, they bid and the deal is done - why can't we operate as smoothly as this? The Lukaku deal didn't come out of nothing. The player had a good idea of what he was getting into, and obviously enjoyed his time there last year. Everton pitch themselves as something different and make a bit of a cult of all of the players that went and stayed there, which happens quite a bit. They have quietly managed to amass some impressive players through this loan-em-first routine. Looks like we're having a go with Bertrand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Convict Colony Posted 5 August, 2014 Share Posted 5 August, 2014 Whose done the best single transfer for their team. Factoring in the team strength in that position, cost and likely adaption to the league if from outside.

And Barca's policy of spending stupid amounts of cash on over the hill defenders is proving quite impressive. Especially as they've just signed Jérémie Mathieu from Valence as well, same profile CB/LB, roughly the same price 20 million € can't be far off 15 million £. Mathieu is 30 and he's had a bit part career really. Amazed that Barca are in any way interested in him, mind you given the shambles that their defence has looked on occasions since they've not had Pujol I guess you can understand them wanting to multiply their options.
