If you’re having trouble with your number ten He’s giving you the blues You wanna progress but he’s hittin’ row Z? Here’s what you gotta do. Pick up the phone. They’re always home Ready to make a dime Pay inflated agent fees in search of trophies They lead a life of crime.
The January Transfer window comes to a close tomorrow. Deadline day discussion here. Anyone making any bold predictions on moves? What about winners and losers?* How much money will be spent?
Think Sterling gets an unduly hard rap, to be honest.
hes a young lad that was poorly advised. He was also treated pretty shoddily by Liverpool. Notable the problems they have had pinning players down to new contracts, someone somewhere is messing things up and/or putting noses out of joint.
Sterling is a good player, perhaps a bit overpriced but as I keep saying Fees involving Prem (even Championship) teams just aren’t worth looking at. There’s too much money around, it’s all hyper inflated and ultimately meaningless.
Newcastle have been turned down on 21 million; as always - it’s what the market will bear. I don’t blame WBA for holding onto Berahino; they’ll be held to ransom on any deal for a replacement and might not see too much change out of that money.
Fair enough. Hadn’t considered that factor but it makes a lot of sense. One does wonder whether it’ll backfire, as he ponders the prospect of earning tens of thousands of pounds a week over the next window. Maybe he’ll sign a new deal just for the cash after the window closes.
United showed the way with De Gea, and it’s win win for everyone apart from potential suitors.
On a related note, one of my windows at home needs replacing. Who do the FA get theirs from? At the end of every transfer period, the window always slams shut and I could do with a robust replacement.
