Wenger on SSN saying that they did not offer £6mill to Bolton...so looks like someone is lying lol
...
It was, from the start 6 mil with 4mil in addon's, that is significantly higher in comparison if not actual value, as in that overall is 66% higher. But of course this is one of Wenger's little things, considering every deal like its full value with addons even if theres smeg all chance of them being forfilled. International appearances, cups, prem league wins as addons maybe, then Bolton would be getting 6mil and not a penny more
10mil upfront with the potential for a few million more sounds a lot more realistic. Why Wengers ****** around with days to go and a freaking critical game on Sunday, a game we've got almost no one fit/not banned for and absolutely don't want to be thrashed badly in, I really don't know.
Make a 13-14mil in total offer, get him signed, play him against Utd, even if it was in as DM.
Given Barton's wages, does that mean Fernandes might be willing to fund a late buying spree for Warnock?
Well if you look at it as saving a 6mil transfer fee, thats about 1.5mil a year over 4 years, or 30k a week they basically put from transfer fee into his wages. Not "cheap" but not exactly throwing cash around like a mad man.
I wonder how much Rooney will want the next time he hands in a transfer request?
Thats the thing, in most career's you make more as you get older, Zidane, Beckham, Henry hitting "big" wages for the time but only towards the ends of their career's, with Messi/Rooney/Yaya Toure/Tevez/Ronaldo already on that kind of money, what are they going to want in their next contracts, and will any of the clubs refuse to pay and in doing so, open up some transfers you might never have thought would have happened. Messi and Ronaldo to City in 4 years time, 1mil a week each,
. Our full first team squad is now 20 players, 16 of them fit...2 long term injuries, 2 injured, 3 new players and 1 just back from a longish injury. Gonna be an interesting next few days transfer wise...
