MACCA75's latest activity

Think Burnley are gone. But have a feeling either Sunderland and Leeds might stay up. Both seem to be willing to spend money. Sunderland already have and Leeds after signing Stach and a couple others are linked with the likes of Muniz and Paixao...

I think this to be true too. Moyes at Wham was looking at better players than Dyche ever dreamed of. The quality step up in terms of targets is part due to Moyes and part due to our financial position improving.

I think because we’ve been asleep at the wheel for the last few windows, people have lost touch a bit with the cost of players. Chelsea have paid more than €30 million for a player 51 times. West Ham, who should be below our level really, have...

Yeah my guess is 25 up front, 10 in add-ons.

I think he’ll go for around £35 million, but we’ll see I guess.

Oh we do for certain. But think that Silva type player is what we need the most.

I don't think they will either. I can see a deal of 25 up front loaded with 10m in add-ons etc though. The contract length only matters if the clubs think he'll wait it out and leave on a free which he clearly won't do. We got over 40 for...

Why is the final year of his contract relevant though? He’s not going to want to sit on his bum all season waiting for a move in a years time. As long as several clubs want him, City will have a high price.

I like him, but would still need a pacy right winger.

kudos to you for your spelling wizardry 😉

Why don’t we try and sign this other geezer that Forest want instead/as well. Actually seems more like what we need.

Controversial but I'd pay 25-30 for Mcatee and 30-35m for Elliot with very little worry about them not being comfortably worth a lot more in a years time.

Yeah besides playing every minute, being the captain of the winning team, and being given the man of the match award by uefa in the final.

Early on in the window and their in no rush to sell. Of course they're going to go big on the price tag, see if anyone bites. Price will drop later in the window when no one offers what they're asking

Just as if you would pay 42 million for anyone with a year left. Just say he's not for sale and save a lot of leg work for anyone interested because nobody is paying that.
