The Fish 9270 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Seen we've been linked with two young lads from Real MAdrid on loan as part of a deal for Sissoko? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Never heard of either of them but ones 23 and only played for their reserves as far as I could see. Don't see how signing either of them on loan benefits us tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 12903 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 50 games is a long season and our knackers WILL get injured so I'm perfectly fine with two Championship players in Clark and Hanley coming in to help us get up. Then, we can get shot of them if they're still shit next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howay 12496 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I'm still shocked Real Madrid seem to want Sissoko, he'd not even be 2nd choice in any position for them. 20m + two talented kids on loan for the season would be good tbh, gives us a larger squad and while I'd obviously prefer we got one on a permanent deal I think the two mentioned in that article are pretty promising so probably wouldn't have much interest in anything longer than a loan at the minute.

LooneyToony 41 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I hope we get those two in from RM, we need bodies and hopefully strike gold here and there. Mo Diame is the sort that SHOULD do some damage in this league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 2 players who have never played higher than Real's B team? I can't see why we would want to loan them at all. Let alone accept them as a reason to shave £5m-£10m off the fee for Sissoko. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26870 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Given that Rafa was in charge at RM less than a year ago I'd say that there aren't many people better placed to value their worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1117 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 That is of course true but if we truly value Sissoko at £35m then if people are suggesting accepting something like £25m and these two for a year on loan it sounds like a massive non starter to me. The striker has clearly banged them in for their reserves so might be worth a punt in exchange for £1m or £2m fee but I'd be surprised if Rafa would be willing to bring a 20 year old attacking midfielder to the championship. It would be a big risk to bring in some of that position and age to this division for a year, especially if it's costing us millions to do it.

It would be a big risk to bring in some of that position and age to this division for a year, especially if it's costing us millions to do it. I don't think we truly value Sissoko at £35m though, we'd have accepted bids around £25m if he'd not had a good Euros and 6 good games at the Euros doesn't mean you're a great player. Rafa's spent millions to bring Isaac Hayden into a role that will bring him under more pressure than AM and he's only 21. If you're good enough you're old enough, even in the Championship. I'd much prefer a permanent deal for players, but selling MS for c£30m, getting 2 promising players in on loan and still having £30m to spend on Left Backs, experienced pros and what not seems like good business to me.
