Rodwell's Off

Cause you're just trying to get people going mate.

I can feel it in my bones.

Not at all. Look at my initial points - a £10m bid for N'Zogbia from "out of nowhere" and Elstone saying we're looking to buy AND sell players.

It's a case of adding 2 plus 2. I may be getting 5 as the answer but it's a valid opinion I have.

If I'd come on here and said "Moyes is going" or something else daft then, yes, I'd understand it.

I think it's less your opinion -- you're not saying "Maybe this means Rodwell is going" -- and more your arrogance... "Bye bye Rodders. Just wondering what we're getting for him."

That's why I thought you might have been on a windup, like, as you're normally a bit more grounded and sensible.
 

How's it a bloody wind-up, it's an opinion. Never heard of the phrase "feel it in my bones"?

You could be right lad, but I feel it my water that he'll still be with us come the 1st Sept. Actually if we had to sell Rodwell to get N'Zog and pocket some change then I think that'd make sense, but my bladder says it's not likely to happen.

btw Elstone didn't actually say we're selling someone this Summer. He said it was being discussed, which isn't necessarily the same thing. I'd guess if the price is right ( for Rodwell or anyone else ) then we'd sell, otherwise we don't.

Yeah this. Its why i mentioned ghost, cause its the sort of pretend its real wind up he used to do to get people going.

We haven't actually bid for Nzogbia, Stevie Wonder could see we might be selling players.

None of which means Rodders is definaitly off as you suggest, while you might think he is and might be right, putting it like you did is just scare mongering and trying to get people going.

That ain't arrogance, it's just I can't see where else that money is coming from given Yakubu is playing 90 minutes and Fellaini started today. Anyone we were imminently selling for money would be wrapped in cotton wool, and Rodwell barely kicked a ball over the summer.
 
He played with England for the U21s.

He might not have got much time on pitch, but hes still entitled to a break, as are most players after Summer Tournys.

That money? Meaning the Zog bid?

You're not naive enough to believe that, are you? At worst it's a jarg rumour and at best it's a phantom bid.

Yep fair enough. But there's no other player in our squad I can think of who we could sell to fund a bid for N'Zogbia who didn't play today. Yobo for £4m perhaps, Hibbert for £32m... other than that... Where was Saha anyway, injured again?
 
Feel it in my bones. He's nowhere to be seen tonight, no injury news, Elstone confirming we're selling players this summer and Everton suddenly finding £10m down the back of the couch for the Zog.

Bye bye Rodders. Just wondering what we're getting for him.

The club is more important than one player and I for one would swap them for the now, rather than the maybe. After all, if we can get into Europe again.....
