If it is true then the £25m was about what I expected us to have. That's enough to make a difference, I think. At the least it should get us M'bia and Moutinho (maybe a couple of million short but that could be sorted on the repayments) Now if we could get those and SWP on loan with a couple of other loan deals then I'd be pretty pleased.
well it like i said above, if moyes gets 4 loans/cheapos in ,then its game on for a big signing or 2 .
if we can get quality like swp and vigic for nothing its a huge bonus.
ive just heard man city have bid 10 million for swp.
liverpool have had a bid accepted for riera( less than our bid by 2 million ???)
zigic is deciding between us and villa today.
swp is a toughy.
i think chelsea will accept either a loan with an option to buy or a straight cash sale.
they dont need the cash asap.
so then i think its down to swp.
with city he knows what he is getting and there is the promise of a so called push to challenge the top 4 with shinawtra's (spelling) millions.
or he could come to everton , who are pushing the top 4 , in europe , have a better quality team , fans and manager than man city.
imo he would be mad to go back to city.
there is also the phantom menace that is arry redknapp waiting in the wings to make a bid also.(id be surprised if he has the money left though)
Not sure this Shittywaiter has any money to spend. Havent his assets been frozen cos of his fiddling ? wots the asking price for SWP anyway.
swp is a toughy.
i think chelsea will accept either a loan with an option to buy or a straight cash sale.
he has money , but 800 million of his fortune has been seized.
his wife is in prison and he will be too if he goes back home.
im confident that by the end of the season the fa will say he has to sell his shares as his ownership is against fa rules.
just another note about swp. he is currently on 90 k a week apparently !!
another stumbling block.
but then again players do have to face up to the fact that wages are starting to come down.
well thinking about it , jacobsen coming could mean neville pushing into dm , or it could just mean hibbert is out for ages.
and swp coming could push arteta in cm (once pienaar and cahill are back in september)
would this lineup work ?
..............howard
...neville yobo jags lescott
.phillips arteta osman pienaar
................cahill
