January Transfer Window Thread - rumours and signings here
- Thread starter Gilly
- Start date
I would have Jenas at sunderland...but not as a makeweight for Jones...the simple fact is we dont need to sell him, we dont need the cash, and whats the point of selling a players who is scoring goals to a team that has less points than us, Bents a decent enough player but is similar is style to Cisse..Jones adds something different to our attack we wouldnt be able to get a similar player to replace him at the moment so no amount of money will make the deal go through..the club has made that clear, but Redknapp does all his deals in the press...he needs to be brought up about it..the saggy faced git

In other news Rafa has rejected his contract offer 
Well, you'd better ask Kaka that.
Glad to see cheets64 (no offense, mate) getting worked up about Palacios. I can't say I've seen much of him but if Wigan fans are upset then he's obviously a good player.
You seriously don't consider Spurs to be a far far bigger club than Wigan?
How much cash does Bruce have to spend in this transfer window? You're going to have to buy atleast one striker in the next few months, and that's only if the new guy settles in well.
Back to the Kaka deal, does anyone else think that he's not worth the money? I know the answer is yes obviously. But what I mean is, he's not even one of the best players in the world. I'd class him about the same standard as Gerrard. With Messi, Torres, Ronaldo, Xavi all on a different level. I've never saw what's so good about him and yet Man City are going to double the transfer fee record for someone who isn't even the world's best player, madness!

I think he's worth 30m at best, but because Milan doesn't want to sell him and this is the only way to make them sell the player. Anything less they'll just reject the offer outright.
Sounds promising, and Bates not mixing his words. That makes a change!
Become?
Wigan are a small town club, in a small town that is dominated by rugby. They're doing well to attract players that other clubs want.
According to Scolari on SSN, Kaka wouldn't be going to Man City for the money but for the challenge. LOL.
Man City official: So we heard Scolari's comments, you're not here for the money then?
Kaka: Nah, the challenge is more important to me.
Man City Official: Ah that's great, so we don't have to pay you 500k a week then.
Kaka: That's not strictly what I said, God is telling me to take the money!
Not going for the money, yeah right.

The thing that worries me is that it's another nail in the coffin of lower league clubs.
It's surely going to have a knock on effect across the board in the transfer market, making it harder for smaller clubs everywhere. But no one seems to care about this.....
It also is another step towards a European super league.
I will find it well amusing if he does sign for city and struggles to adapt to the premiership, which does happen. Even funnier if city got relegated after signing him, can you imagine Kaka playing against the likes of Doncaster, Blackpool and Plymouth, haha.
Probably very likely.
He's certainly on the same par as Xavi although they're pretty different players, Gerrard doesn't compare. He hasn't been his usual self the past year or so but the guy's a class act and is important to Milan as Messi and Ronaldo are to their clubs.
Of course he isn't worth that money though.
