Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 One paper saying we're preparing for a £12m bid from PSG for Cabaye, another saying we've slapped a £25m price on him. The papers will print fucking anything won't they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5151 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 The Guardian seems to think we're heading for £20m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 6964 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 I wouldn't sell one of his legs for £12mil. One of the first names on the team sheet for France and in his prime at 27. £25mil + at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gejon 2 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Sell to PSG for £20m + Sakho, spend the £20m on Belhanda, Remy and Redmond then whatever budget we had planned to spend on a replacement for Cabaye. Fuck off Kinnear, I've got this covered! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 5151 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Plan is apparently to then get Aubameyang and Zouma. And Bent probably. I dunno about Cabaye, he was poor last season and I think the argument is strong for getting rid. Whether you think he's poor because of Pardew or because he was depressed/whatever, the fact is that he's unlikely to be any better next year under the same people. Maybe other players would be.

Tooj 17 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Zouma's agent has denied it and I couldn't see us spending that much money on a centre-half that wouldn't be first choice. Despite his obvious potential though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimaad22 4084 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 I'd be gutted if Cabaye went, despite some of the below par performances last season. The reasons for some of our best players failing to perform last season have been discussed at length already.He's a class act we're not likely to replace him with anyone near as good anyway.

Monroe Transfer 0 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 (edited) Gutted if he goes . All down to Pardews season of shiteness. Seriously? Even if we'd have well done last season, a better/bigger club coming in with a big offer (£25m) for one of our players would probably lead to them leaving. We just don't have the ambition/'project' of the likes of PSG/Monaco. Is that Pardew's fault too? Edited June 30, 2013 by Monroe Transfer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just don't have the ambition/'project' of the likes of PSG/Monaco. Is that Pardew's fault too? No disputing massive bids from the rich clubs (not yet forthcoming) will be irresistible, however as I said in November, players of Cabayes quality dont want to play this type of football regardless of transfer fees. http://www.toontastic.net/board/topic/33629-player-form/?view=findpost&p=1139798 Its know different to any walk of life. If you work for a shit boss and hate your job your head drops and you have one eye on the door. Money talks of course, but turgid football makes the parting so much easier.

PaddockLad 16991 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Its club policy to get players in cheap and sell them on for huge profits. Just bacause it hasnt happened as yet it doesnt mean its not true and our tactics last year have nothing to fuckin do with it. Things might have been different if Cabaye had been able to deliver a half decent corner, so he's not as good as people are making out neither so if someone offers 25mill we should take their hands off.

Tom 14011 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Some people on here are complete fucking idiots when it comes to football mind. It's OK though - GENIUS Mike Ashley's mate Kinnear will sort us out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monroe Transfer 0 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Does anyone know if our scouting network (Carr's cronies) actually extends out of Europe?You never hear of us looking at Asian talent, or South American talent. I know it's easier to look at and bring in European players because of work permits and the like, but I'd still like to know we're looking worldwide. Even Sunderland seem to be doing that.
