    Harry doesn't want to spend big on a striker

    The various "ITKs" saying this are talking utter tripe. They're complete muppets, most copying each other's posts and riding on the back of anyone that does have info and gives it(witness the latest muppetry from "Mystery" last night. When I questioned his assertion that Pav was starting...

    What would you have given him? Taking him off made things worse.

    Ratings v Fulham

    Stopped watching at HT, the first time that has ever happened in over 3 decades of watching Spurs. Listened to the 2nd half on the radio, whilst planning my suicide. Gomes 5 Uneasy after the early pens, as witnessed by him and BAE failing to deal with a testing cross. A lot of poor...

    Suarez to Scousers for £23m

    This thread is utterly ridiculous as this transfer hasn't happened. I KNOW it can't have happened. Adie knows.

    I am sure you must have been told a million times about exaggerating. It was the 54th minute(yellow card 33 mins). :rofl:

    You might need to factor in the past gulf between Spanish income tax for footballers and the rates here. When Pennant went to Zaragoza, he was earning the equivalent of 80k a week, plus free car and villa.

    As all SC members have to pass a rigorous test on the History of Football, administered by A&C, with ever marking the papers, it would be greatly surprising if that wasn't the case.

    For anyone wanting clarification on how buy-out clauses work in Spain(with ref to Llorente), a very informative article by Sid Lowe(based in Madrid and provides insight for The Guardian and TalkSport, amongst others)...

    Roger's last sentence was: "Maybe a srtikers on its way....." It usually indicates that he doesn't think it will be successful. I think Peanut and Roger and singing from the same hymn sheet.

    Apparently not. Only meeting the £35m would force their hand, and then it is whether the player wants to leave Spain, which would be a massive step for him.

    They don't value him more highly, they just have an almost unlimited supply of cash. For past reference see: Sean Wright-Phillips

    What leads you to think that Pav will start? Harry has said he will play his strongest side, and all the reports indicate it will be either Crouch or Defoe.

    His agent will move heaven and earth to get him to go, not least because the agent is going to make a princely sum. It's up to the player to get reliable advice, exercise his judgement, and decide what is best for his career.

    :-) As the release clause is around £35m, it means Bilbao have no incentive to consider bids below that level, ours being in excess of £20m I have been told.

    I knew there was something badly wrong with Keane. I wonder what the hairdresser's reply was? :-? "That's nice, but where are you going on your holidays?" Or: "We only do shampoo, cut, and blowdry. This isn't Sky Sports News". *For mild comic effect only. I did see the posts.

    Except they haven't bought a striker. Adebayor is on loan and they have no intention of buying him. 1) Madrid don't operate on a mutual co-operation basis. They are all about take and no give. VDV was offered because Mourinho didn't want him and they got their money back. Ask Hamburg...
