aimaad22 3442 Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Why are we still in for Bent though? Because the Gomis deal is stalling? Out of Bent and Remy I'd much rather have Remy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 13830 Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Weren't we linked with him some time back? We'd be better off spending that amount on him than McCarthy to be honest. Although I cant see it happening. We were yeah. I'd love a player like that here but I think he'll probably end up at a champions league club. Although I can accept that sounds far fetched - he reminds me bit of Wilshire in style and precociousness. The maturity in his decision making is exceptional . English players like him need a chance in the big time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 4963 Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 A fully fit Ryan Taylor is a better player. Right now maybe, but McCarthy has so much fight and enthusiasm in him that I think over time he'd be a better player. Probably not a lot of time either.

David Kelly 1117 Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Canny interview. Didn't make himself look like a complete idiot for a change and gave a bit of insight about what it's like to actually complete these deals. I wish the club would put out more communications like this. That said I find it difficult to believe anything he says and I still can't understand why we didn't start all this long enough ago to be further on by now. I mean what the fuck have they been doing the last three month! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 5899 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 The longer this drags on the more I can envisage us spending a grand total of £2mil on a loan fee for Remy, with the Gomis and Bent deals suddenly collapsing. £58m of the £60m TV money in Mikes pocket and Kinnear on SSN telling us he did all he could and he will try again in January Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 5899 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Aye, even January was less than £20mil and I get the impression that was more of a 'speculate to accumulate' strategy to ensure we stayed in the Premier League long enough to benefit from the extra TV money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its got little to do with what we need for the squad, its about getting the bare minimum in to ensure survival.In a way I'm ok with that if it hastens the fat prick's exit, but it could of course be worse. Am sure greater minds than mine will be able to assess a lot more accurately than I can whether he is going to trouser the lion's share of the forthcoming TV money but I'd suggest that you're spot on.

Happy Face 29 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 It's already been specified in the previous accounts that ashley will get back another £17m (I think it was) from the club this year. Following the £11m last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He allocates about 20m a year for spend, wether it be summer or Jan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
