He will be getting his money regardless!

He is out of contract in the summer, I really don't get the fuss, we should be more concerned about the wasters who we will still be stuck with going forward.

Yes, once he goes, we have to look at the deal to bring him here, and a few more since, and learn from them, very poor deals and costly, hopefully we WILL learn from them. No blame on Niasse, his agent got him a very good deal and he would have been a fool not to sign it, he must have made enough from it to live a very comfortable life from now on, and he will get another deal and more wages for the next few years.

Yes, right now he is a PL player not CHP or lower.

He’s on the books of a PL club (unfortunately!) he’s really not a PL standard player and to be honest he’d struggle to get a game in teams in the top half of the championship!
A dreadful Martinez signing that we are still paying for over four years later!

Nonsense. It's just a transfer that didn't quite work out, happens all the time to every club.

Why is Sandro not a dodgy transfer for example?

I didnt say it was, i said i had suspicions it was.

They are largely based on that transfer being a big outlay at the time - when we got a few bob people were happy for Oumar to be a mascot of sorts - but under the last regime it was significant money - in many ways Oumar was lucky he came here when he did - because if he was this bad and we were skint there would be hell to pay.

My suspicions are largely based on the fact we were linked with players in Russia under Martinez, Yarmelenko, we signed McGeady, i suspect we were enmeshed in the market there, contacts with agents etc and maybe were doing a back scratching deal with an agent, maybe for another run at Yarmelenko in the summer, Martinez didn't survive that long though as we know.

Its also the fact we never scouted him and just saw a dvd and paid what was a significant amount then on that basis, also the quality of the lad himself and the fee and contract he was given, it all just doesn't add up to me. I have no proof nor am i making an accusation and dont know the truth of it, but ive always thought it was a suspicious deal.

You really think we paid 13m for a player who we only watched on DVD?

LOL
