TrentVilla Posted October 28, 2015 Moderator Share Posted October 28, 2015 Amazing that this controversial contract has leaked soon after Sherwood is sacked. Truly amazing.I suspect there will be a lot of this sort of stuff leaking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 If he did leak it why is it bad? Surely this is a good thing for the club. We're prepared to put together a package that gets talent like Adama to this club. That's positive news for me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa89 Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Amazing that this controversial contract has leaked soon after Sherwood is sacked. Truly amazing.I suspect there will be a lot of this sort of stuff leaking out.I was just going to write the same thing. It also goes without saying all of the "leaks" will be thinly veiled attempts at absolving a certain ex-manager of blame for the horrifc results and performances under his tenure. The gobby clearing in the woods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I wouldnt be surprised, we got a Barcelona youth product who has played 1st team in a year of a "transfer ban". Of course a team who have been fighting relegation every year would have pay him good money to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's positive news for me.Maybe because other potential signings will expect more, or current players will think they can get more. It's just not right to leak the information - even if the actual news is good - it's unprofessional. So many leaks recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many leaks recently.It is unprofessional but we all could predict this was going to happen.My biggest issue though with Sherwood leaking stuff is the honesty of it. I don't believe a word that comes out of his mouth. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Why would Sherwood leak this? It's doesn't support him, in fact it shows the club were spending money bringing in talent to the club. I just don't get what he'd get from this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SikhInTrinity Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Sherwood would release it to say, look how much they are paying him but they wouldn't back me in signing Aaron fcuking Lennon or Andros Townsend who both since the start of the year have 4 assists in 2015. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shows the club can spend money on wages but didn't want to pay his Tottenham rejects. Supposedly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Well, if he is on that, we better start starting him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieVillan Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 (edited) The only concern is whether he's good enough to justify the wages. I would assume that we think he is good enough, but that after the Delph situation we have protected ourselves e.g. he will have to start 30 or 40 games before the high salary kicks in. That being the case, if he's started 30-40 games, then he is probably doing the business.Its also far too early to judge him - he's not started a single league game, and has only had his cameos in the league with a struggling team who need an immediate impact from him. Its hardly low pressure for a young player trying to settle in a new team and new country. He's also been injured FFS!Lets give the guy a chance - the wages only becomes an issue if he proves beyond doubt that he is useless and is another Nzogbia.

ender4 Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 i don't care about his wages.Just play him (in the right set-up with the right tactics) and he'll drag us out of the relegation zone.We can worry about the wages in 30 games time.

Truly amazing.There are more coming.He's such a bell is Tim.Yep.Same happened at Spurs.I don't think the contract for Adama is such a big deal. Leaking it to the press is so Sherwood though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you've just stank out a place it doesn't do any harm to keep slinging mud at those you worked for if you want to try and salvage some reputation.As and when a job comes up it never hurts to have a friendly journo or two in your corner.

sharkyvilla Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I think he may have learnt how to pass a football at La Masia, they're generally quite successful at that. There are likely to be several reasons why he hasn't quite done it so far with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
