Falcao


Night all

Did he just say what I thought he fucking said?

 

[Cavehillspur]

He's only been at Atletico 1 season and they paid 40mil for him so he'd cost a ridiculous amount, really cant see it.

 

[Mr Pink]

difference between liking and realistically getting...

so this time Levy will be taking his wheelbarrow to Portugal instead of Spain? (although technically he'll be in Spain - Athletico )

Falcao


Night all

Im gonna pop my cherry with this post....its such a sexy idea.
falcao at the , actually playing for us ..

 

[bilburger]

Yeah, Fuck-All-Friday!!!



Right, it's been alluded to on here that AVB might not be able to take us over til July 1st cos of some contract thing with Chelsea (or similar) and the idea has taken root a bit and been suggested elsewhere and in the media and what have you.

What I do know (and I can't account for the rest of the site or anywhere else cos I live in mainly in here and remember WE ARE SKY SPORTS SOURCES) is that on 21st of June, late at night after JJ had spoken, I had a thought and it hadn't been suggested in these threads before, I wrote:

In response to JJ's 'Manager is more complicated' comment.
Is it possible that AVB has a clause in his Chelsea contract payoff preventing him from taking over us or anyone prior to a certain date? If he had, that would certainly be 'complicated' and could prevent an appointment before a particular time.
I know f-all about such contracts but just wondered, cos if Abramavich has paid AVB £13m or whatever to get rid, he probably wants AVB to F-the F-off for a while. Maybe if we want AVB we're talking compensation?

The next morning it got paraphased a bit and talked about...
Is it true? Fuck knows! I know nothing. Is it true that I originated the theory? I dunno, but if I did, it shows just how acorns can grow into big ole trees and guesswork can become rumour, rumour can become more rumour and we're none the wiser.

Now? I quite like the 'We want everyone to wear their shiny new kits' theory myself, or the 'We're gonna take over the world with our manager, players, kit and stadium' mega press conference theory...

And i'm SO hopeful for the future. These are great times to be a Spurs fan.

Great post. Keep banging 'em out (the posts I mean).

Falcao? That wouldn't blow my socks off, that would blow my bollocks off

 

[Cavehillspur]

£52mil release clause....

 

[L-man]

Can't see it. akqayids information is always really optimistic so we all love it, but in reality it's unlikely that some of it will be pulled off. E.g. all these companies investing millions. Had a quick look in the log and last year, he wasn't exactly on the ball

So I keep hearing that Falcao's wages are high, but any ideas of how high? Like are we talking £90-100k, or Citeh level silly (sillier) money?

 

[ohh Teddy Teddy]

£30m + Giovani? We would need the investment to come to fruition though to be able to afford the deal (fee and wages)

 

[VincenzoCoccotti]

Much as I want to believe Aquayid I just can't

JJ killed the idea stone dead so unless something has happened in the last 24 hrs I am with JJ on this one

On FM (I know I know) its £115k I believe

Closer to 40mil + (+Gio)

 

[Brazilyid]

I really didn't want to get excited. But he seems so goddamn sure.

Damn my young optimism!

 

[Only 1 Spurs]

Sleep deprivation warps the mind!!
