Slayer 3 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Same. I suppose the assumption is that there is a budget that this is taking money from that could be better spent elsewhere, don't reckon thats really the case though How would you feel if we paid something like £20m for Riviere?

strawb 3659 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 What I mean is, so fuck if 12 million is over the odds. Who decides what a player is worth? The club selling. If we want him then we pay the asking fee or we dont. We have haggled over half a million in previous years. The club is definately rich enough to buy a 12 million pound player so why not? If he turns out shite and we sell him for 5 next year, what have we lost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew 4218 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 How would you feel if we paid something like £20m for Riviere? Its irrelevant, Riviere was shite for his fee, he'd be shite for £20million and he'd be shite for 500k. I don't give a shit how much we pay for anyone, I care how they play and how we do with them in the side, if he makes us better then I'm glad we signed him.

ewerk 26292 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 We have a finite pool of money, I don't think it's strange for fans to be concerned how that pot is spent. If we spunked our entire budget by spending £50m on him then I'd be very worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've spent a fairly average amount for a PL player from a PL club because all PL clubs have got loads of money these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perez was peanuts, one of our best players. Also our finite pool of money should easily be able to cover 12 million and a lot more. Other.

We've spent a fairly average amount for a PL player from a PL club because all PL clubs have got loads of money these days. Yes but even a difference of £1.5m can mean signing an Ayoze Perez or not.

Dickie 0 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 I think this is a decent signing for us. I've only seen bits and pieces of him playing for Swansea but from what I've seen he's got the quality to pick a pass and contribute the odd goal from midfield at this level. Looks like there are question marks about his character, let's just hope he can sort that out up here. 12 mil seems like a lot of money but if his attacking quality gets us the goals that keep us up it will be worth it.

Lackie92 1 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Still a decent signing and improves our squad, even if it's not the signing most of us would like... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 If a player does well for us and we are doing ok then what he costs is irrelevant. If we're stuggling, he's not very good and he's a waste of a transfer budget then of course it's a problem. Only time will tell which Shelvey turns out to be. But we've heard before how selling Carroll for £35m didn't really put that much into the pot because of agent fees and then wages of any new players (no mention ever made of wages saved that would have been paid to him mind you) so we know that with this regieme we need to be careful with every penny!

trooper 940 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 So its something like £12 mil for Shelvey & £5.5 mil for Saivet so what price would the club want for Perez ? Just playing devil advocate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
