CONFIRMED Cameron Archer signs for the Blades - 4 year contract

[ThatJa]

That was 5 years ago. Even the price of bread has doubled in last 12 months.

I'm not sure football transfers come under the category of cost of living.

 

[Champagneblade]

Personal terms agreed more or less.

It goes;

- Confirm with club you'd like to open negotiations with player

- Contact agent of player

- Confirm with player hr would join you if you were to bid and confirm on ballpark salary.

- Bid with club

- When bid with club accepted finalise salary offer / bonuses

That sounds like how it should be in a gentlemanly way.

Taking Marseille for instance as a not so random example, I’d imagine these days it would go:

- Contact agent of player and find out how much he thinks club would want for him

- Confirm with player he would join you if you were to bid and confirm on ballpark salary.

- Finalise salary offer / bonuses

- Confirm with club you'd like to open negotiations with club

- Bid with club

 

[Aston max]

For God's Sake, Rocket - give us SOMETHING to moan about or a lot of Blades out there will be slitting their wrists!

 

[gaffablade]

A striker is irrelevant if we create zero chances for said striker

Only if we signed Hamer Souza Davies to supply a striker…………

So according to you, if personnel terms are there about, we must have a bid accepted??

Is that the Tom Davies reveal clip?

 

[SufcBilly]

Only if we signed Hamer Souza Davies to supply a striker…………

Have you seen Souza’s stats outside of defending?

 

[gaffablade]

Have you seen Souza’s stats outside of defending?

Have you seen him play yet?

 

[SufcBilly]

Have you seen him play yet?

What’s that got to do with the fact he doesn’t pass forwards or is in no way shape or form a creative player?

 

[Lord Eddard Muir]

Can't find Archer anywhere on Amazon bloody gutted.

Not looked very hard. On a 3 season deal too

 

[Lord Eddard Muir]

My guy is telling me villa want £18m

My Brewster sense is tingling more by the minute

 

[JayGreen17]

My guy is telling me villa want £18m

Close the thread, should have paid the xtra 2m for Akpom, looking at the goal stats he’s head and shoulders above.

 

[Rocket Man]

The bidding stage follows the ballpark salary offer / player wanting to come to the club stage.

See the bidding stage as the end of the process when you have a 'buy in' from all stakeholders and you are presenting the deal to the big boss stakeholder who signs it off.

 

[FTPE]

Good player archer but wouldn’t pay 18m for him personally

Personally? No, I don't have a quid to scratch my arse with, but the Princes/Ndiaye money... I'd use the lot.

 

[alcoblade]

If we don’t have that money, we should be asking why. We’ve sold 2 players for around £30m this summer and had a cash injection for getting promoted.

We've sold numerous players before that, had cash injections, and are >£60M in debt.

Football clubs ooze cash.

Have a look at the accounts.

 

[CaptainMorgans]

Only if we signed Hamer Souza Davies to supply a striker…………

Souza doesn't pass the ball forwards.
Stats tell us that he isn't a creative type, almost laughably the opposite.

So according to you, if personnel terms are there about, we must have a bid accepted??

Did you actually read what his post?
Couldn't be much clearer that this isn't what he was saying.

 

[Millhousesblade1889]

Has the prince told Archer that if he doesn’t sign now then he’ll never get chance to play for us again. That always works

 

[Keen Blade]

It’s an foreign loan though so not included in the two domestic loans.

Foreign or domestic , what's the point of paying wages to a player whilst you develop him for another club ?
Makes no sense at all.
If you are gonna pay a fee & wages to borrow someone else's player , that player needs to :
Be fully match fit
Be fully developed relative to his age
Go straight into the first team as someone of the level of quality you can't afford to buy.
I'm not sure Larouci is any of the above

 

[BadgersBigToe]

Has the prince told Archer that if he doesn’t sign now then he’ll never get chance to play for us again. That always works

No but he told Akpom that

ASA......they find another £8m

 

[Keen Blade]

I think this one will be done by Friday. It's the last buy of the window, Hecky wants him, Archer wants it, Villa want fair compensation. Get it over the line, get the two loans by next Friday and viola!!

Who will play the viola ?

Do we know what info is accurate, I've seen Mr Smith online claiming that reports of a £10m bid being rejected by Villa are not true. There seems to be conflicting information around at present

 

[Rocket Man]

Not sure if we have upped our offer or if they have dropped theirs (doubt it was ever disclosed to the media) but told we are 'Very Close'.

 

[PrestwichBlade]

Not sure if we have upped our offer or if they have dropped theirs (doubt it was ever disclosed to the media) but told we are 'Very Close'.

Here we go...

 

[Blade58]

we need a striker so really hopeful this happens

 

[Gin&Juice]

Why very close? What’s happened

 

[Keen Blade]

Surely we can lower Villa's fee demands by accepting a buyback clause

 

[Moan? Nope-I saw Longhorn]

Who will play the viola ?

Villa - orchestrating the whole situation - pulling strings & playing us like an old fiddle

 

[bladesmanluke]

Get that fookin' medical started

 

[Gin&Juice]

all hail rocket man. the saviour of the itk forums, my personal hero. Fuck Darren Smith.
