The L.C.A.B. / THT Transfer Window Thread ....

[kenada_blue]

It suggests as much that Yak wanted out. Plus and I've watched him compared to Saha and Beckford. Its just not there like it was.

Except of the derby at home it was like watching him before he joined us... remember that?

Didn't THT say yak wasn't causing a fuss but just wasn't getting picked.

Hows it going unc?

Sound mate, how are you ? Not too pleased that Yak is leaving but still ..... Fingers crossed we can nab a replacement !!

 

[blue61]

I don't think we will get one in. Cahill, Saha and beckford will do for moyes. Don't think yak fits into his plans.

He barely fits into his shorts

I'd say the commitment is going to be higher from them (Leiceister in order to attract him now) ... in the summer than we'd get elsewhere...

We've been determined to offload it seems too. Suggests someone's lined up or someone's coming up from "der youf".


Thanks Yak. We move on.

Yeah I remember the end at Boro... The only problem came from the Gaffer mate to be honest, they cleared the air then the Gaffer made it clear he would sell him if we got decent money. Then he dropped him after Blackpool and since then things have deteriorated, hence the position we are in now. So yeah I guess we move on now....

Fair enough THT, I understand.

Bearing in mind you know this guy's name, how do you feel about the prospect of him being a Yak replacement? Satisfied? Very happy? Disappointed?

Without giving too much away, would 'the one who cannot be named' be an adequate/ more than adequate replacement, if indeed it came off?

Any truth in this?

According to them lot deal is done!?

 

[billycopper]

I'm hearing that West Ham offered 2-3 mill (some game add ons) and believe Leicester's is more like 4.5 rising to 5mill on apps and success etc !!

I'd go with the Leicester offer too in that case then.

Yeah that's right mate he just wanted to play. Thing is though he still got dropped for a centre forward who hadn't scored in almost a YEAR !! That then became a problem because Yak is the type who wants to be loved etc... Also there was a 'problem' a couple of years ago where the club screwed him !!!

was Mbokani coming? until Monaco sacked le boss?

Bad times.

He was still getting chants the past few games too the yak.

He's Congolese, so I guess he'd need a separate work permit to play in the UK. I'd imagine it's easier between France and it's ex colonies.

I know , pity but like Matty says lets move on ....

Let's be totally honest here - anything around £5-6m is daylight robbery for Yak. If we get near that I'd be delighted. I like the guy but he looks totally knackered after 50 minutes when he's played, and if he's 28 then I'm a penguin

I think we have to resign ourselves to the fact that for some reason or another we have zero money, so selling off fringe players is the way to go if we want to reinforce via loans for the run-in.
