£40m Bid Made For Sigurdsson

The rapper?

yes - rapper turned nostalgia clinging disgruntled old man and extreme hater of anything to do with modern hip hop.

Joe Budden is to new rap music what davek is to the new Everton.

Just read on sky sports just now Leceister have already had superior bid to ours turned down? Wonder how true that is..

He is not going to Leicester knowing Everton want to sign him.

 

[ProZ]

Leicester probably haven't even put in a bid.

Even if we pay £50 million, for those saying could get better for less here is a list of the ten best wingers in the Premier League in 2017 from the Metro (he comes in at number 6)

http://metro.co.uk/2017/05/18/the-10-best-wingers-in-the-premier-league-this-season-6644065/

And for the Telegraph the top 30 players in the Premiership (he comes in at number 12).

Now I know that these lists are subjective, but I don't think there is anyone in those lists 'below' Sigurdsson we could get for less than £50 million never mind anyone above him. The prices in the Premiership have gone silly because teams can afford NOT to sell these days due to the huge income from TV they are not as reliant on player trading to create revenue.

Exactly not a chance he joins them over us.

I am coming round to the idea of this - Sigurdsson joining means Rooney is a squad player, right?

 

[BinglyBlue]

If the red S**** paid 40M+ for Sigurdsson we'd all be laughing...

 

[navidson]

80m Zat?

Have you removed your brain?

Barkley -£25m
Mccarthy - £20m
Niasse - £5m
Joel - £10m
Jagielka - £5m
Mori - £15m

Maybe?

 

[AsiaAsia82]

Theres a chance Ross won't sign, so as Peter Andre said....

thats why all WUMs go for Iceland.

Thank you.

 

[EFCccc]

I'll just leave this here.

Kyle Walker ... £60m.

So...let's...look outside the prem? What is our recruitment department for?

That's not even getting into taking the Metro at face value in terms of ranking players. The Telegraph isn't much better.

Fact of the matter is that for £50m you can buy 95% of players in Europe. The chances of there not being a better buy than Gylfi out there are so, so slim. It's possible of course, but...so unlikely.

It's also been reported in the media that Gylfi is not interested in going to Leicester

 

[GwladysPhil]

We're bullying Swansea here.

Mate, please dont avoid the filter. It doesnt work.

For future reference, the phrase RS is perfectly acceptable, and will also save you literally seconds over a week in posting time.

Barkley -£25m
Mccarthy - £20m
Niasse - £5m
Joel - £10m
Jagielka - £5m
Mori - £15m

Maybe?

Only 1 of those player is totally surplus and didnt play last season.

ANY of the others would need replacing, I cant see us selling another 6 players.

Barkley, Robles and Niasse you would imagine are gone, the rest, im not sure.
