Bournemouth offering Defoe £130k a week and a 3 year contract.

Sheesh.

Sheesh.

Isn't he 34, don't think he will have much in the way of pace at 37

Bournemouth offering Defoe £130k a week and a 3 year contract.

Sheesh.

Jesus, that's desperate.

 

[Nymzee]

We understand your point, but perhaps a few of us think we could do with some scoring from dead ball situations. Maybe his assist tally goes down without Llorente, but our team has about zero chance to score from a dead ball situation currently.

Also, I don't think his open play is as poor as many say.

It's not necessarily poor but I think it's not as good as Barkley's and frankly his isn't great. We do have zero chance at the minute but Gylfi won't fix that. Got zero aerial precense in the team except for say RFM.

Bournemouth offering Defoe £130k a week and a 3 year contract.

Sheesh.

20m investment on a 34 year old - crazy! Can see that though, no chance whatsoever. That'd be financially irresponsible.

Why on earth would Swansea sell their best player for £25m to a club that spent £28m on Bolasie. They will ask for £40m minimum... if they ask at all.

nk Swansea would be an ideal club to offload a couple of players in a deal too.

I have read somewhere that Koubailly the CB from Napoli we are interested in , is on 800,000 PER YEAR after tax in Italy
Surely we should offer double or treble those type of wages

He was on that prior to his last contract.

 

[BlueToff]

Bournemouth offering Defoe £130k a week and a 3 year contract.

Sheesh.

No chance they're paying that.

He's going on a free transfer, so there'll be a big signing on bonus up front.

 

[Zatara]

Sigurdsson gets most assists due to Llorente. He also scores goals as other than Llorente who else will score?

If you look at Rooney's assists this season theyre almost all 5 yard sideways passes 20yards out minimum....

Neither player (based on these 'stats') is going to help us get into the top 4.

Interesting Koeman mentioning about not needing to see Ozil and Sanchez on the last day to know the level we need to be at.....surely this means he knows we need top top players.

They'd rather have the money.

Swap deals just don't really happen as much as some people like to think

Nobody else in our team scores except Lukaku...

the only recent one was involving swansea tbf ha

 

[Saint Domingo]

Remember the days when we fumed at not getting Robbie Earnshaw or Sean Davis, then we'd bring in Scott Spencer. Heady days. Now we're arguing over who throw our tens of millions at.

Fine then he is on £10k a week and £19m up front. Either way it is £20m over 3 years being reported. Which is ridiculous.

I like Eddie Howe as a coach but he needs help in the transfer market.

they've sold a top class first XI in the last few years and not many have gone for great fees. Sold their captain and leader for not very much to us this summer.
