lazarus_chin Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Would love to see us try to get Georgios Seitaridis from Atletico Madrid.He is a marvellous right back who is solid and good going forward.One of the reasons why Greece won Euro 2004.Would probably cost us a ot though.He cost Atletico 12 mill euros.Not a lot of great gettable right backs out there.

Jas Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 I might be mad, but I'd sign Joey Barton. He desperately wants to leave City, and who can blame him?! With our forward thinking, ambitious leaders - MON and Randy, he'll be very impressed, and will want to be a part of it. That's his main grievance with City, they are not matching his own ambition!

timharding Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Everton can never afford Bent. Ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocafella Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 But if we sign Craig Bellamy as well we are going to have to sign at least two more security guards for the training sessions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazdavies79 Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 I might be mad, You are :nod: I don't even think he's that special a footballer, he's the next Bowyer. Steer Clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocafella Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Everton can never afford Bent. Ever. That is good news for us of course, I guess they are sniffing around Dave Nugent as he would seem like the second best in that department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sit_Down_Potato_Head Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Darren Bent - I'm with LukeMoore's valuation. £10M should be about right considering Johnson went for £8ish. I think Charlton will sell even if they stay up - as they could get up to 4 decent prem players for that much. But the problem will come if he wants to go to one of the big 4. I just get the feeling there'll be a bit of a circus surrounding him in the summer unless someone gets in there early. Not quite on the Ashley Cole-to-Chelsea scale, but it'll be a pain in the arse. As for Micah Richards - like SWP, he'll want the bling-bling lifestyle that around £60K a week at Chelsea will bring, irrespective of whether or not he ever gets a game. If we think he's any good, it'll be better to wait until next January's window and he'll probably be a lot cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted May 1, 2007 Moderator Share Posted May 1, 2007 Darren Bent - I'm with LukeMoore's valuation. £10M should be about right considering Johnson went for £8ish. I think Charlton will sell even if they stay up - as they could get up to 4 decent prem players for that much. Johnson went for £8m on last years TV money. The new deal will push prices up this summer. I reckon Bent would cost £15m, and I've a feeling he'll be going to Tottenham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LancsVillan Posted May 1, 2007 Moderator Share Posted May 1, 2007 and nugents an evertonian I think they'll pick up a couple of players that we've seen in this and the January thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted May 1, 2007 Moderator Share Posted May 1, 2007 Everyone seems to have £20-£25m to spend. Now I know some will be telling porkies, but there are a lot of teams out there with dosh at the moment. Prices could get silly. I think we'll see our record go this summer. In fact I might get a bet on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trinity-Tom Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 If we signed Darren Bent then we could be considered to be Young and Bent up front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownie Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 When does the transfer window open? The january window felt like it lasted a long time. It was a bit hard to wait for Carew, Young and Maloney! Will most of the best players wait untill the last minute to sign? Thanks, brownie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact I might get a bet on. I personally think the "everyone will have buckets to spend" talk is a myth, people need to understand that the majority of teams in the premiership are in dept, and furthermore even if most teams were to have funds it doesn't mean they can attract the best players, because the tv money will not mean that all clubs can compete with big wage demands, i remember when Wigan first came up, it was said they had "twenty million to spend" and what happened?, they apparently went in for players but they never had a chance, that's why i'm not worried one bit about this so called "funds" everyone is meant to be getting because it doesn't guarantee anything, As for Barton, that clause will be a big help if we were to go for him, when all the speculation was going on in January i think only Everton and Boro showed an interest and he turned them down already, i can't see him going to a lowly team either so i think we'd have a great chance to be honest, right now we've got the BIG MOmentum on our side and i think everyone is starting to see that.

ianrobo1 Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 I think OBE we are cleverer than that as a club we picked up Maloney on a song, we picked Carew for **** all We will break our record and we will see two or three big biys but I expect some quality free transfer like distin and others ....

Pelle Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 When it comes to Owen I think there might be only one problem, but that's a huge one. Wages. He won't cut his wages and we won't pay that silly money to him, I think. I'd rather take Barton than Sidwell as a football-player, but I have my doubts when it comes to the discipline. Something tells me that he's some problems when it comes to that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True with Carew, but we actually paid 1m just to have Maloney 4 months earlier - he'd have been on a Bosman in the summer and therefore free.
