Steven Naismith

[harris78]

I think sometimes players can bring more to a club than just their on field performances. I know it sounds strange but the lad seems to be a popular figure among the players and if he brings a bit of harmony to the group and also gives guidance and a sense of perspective to the younger lads, ie Stones etc then im all for keeping him. He is a nuisance on the pitch also and can come up with a goal when needed on occasion.

Good on you Naisy, keep going lad! 8 Mil on transfer deadline day....no chance!

I understand what you are saying, but £8 mill is a very good bid. Could have been banked for winter transfer window.
He isn't going to get many games from here on, his value will drop accordingly.
A transfer to Norwich would have meant he would have played regularly.
But like out No. 10 it didn't happen.

I would have took the 8m and used it to fund a Charlie Austin transfer.

This 10 times and over and one more for good luck

 

[MikeH72]

Crying and shaking that we missed the opportunity to get £8m for a player that will fetch us £1m if we're lucky next season. Baffled isn't the word

 

[Eric Djemba-Djemba]

Still in shock that someone actually bid 8m.

 

[blue4eva77]

Not accepting 8m because it was too late in the window. I would of accepted to part ways with him for free myself.

8m for Steven Naismith. Incredible. So mind boggling that its laughable...

I might be in the minority but I like Naismith. I am definitely not a hater. He gives us sometihng different from koné coming off the bench and for my mind can change a game and change our pace on the field.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Regardless of Bobby thinking he's a left winger he's one of three strikers at the club that's actually got a top flight goal tally. Rom gets a knock and we're praying Kone's still alive and functioning or playing the unproven South American kid. Great money for him, sadly it wasn't a week or so earlier as it would have been a good business decision.

gonna keep spelling his name stephen just to show how angry i am with him

 

[Haston]

To be fair, Steven Fletcher and Ross McCormack have both been sold for in excess of £10 million, and Naismith offers considerably more than those two. When you put it into that context it's not an over-inflated price tag at all.

Jordan Rhodes as well gets associated with hefty price tags, he can't even get in the Scotland squad and has no PL experience

I had a headache when I heard we'd rejected it, had to go for a lie down and contemplate the point of existing

It's like Martinez is on the wind up though. Can't wait to watch Naismith make my eyes bleed starting on the wing now that Cleverley's injured.
