CONFIRMED Souza off!?

[Nick Jansky]

In the late 90's Seria A transfer market was ridiculously inflated compared to the rest of the world.

Before it came to light that the league was completely bent.

Yes I believe that is the case for most country’s but that person has to live in the country then after a certain amount of time can apply for citizenship, same here in the UK which is 5 years I think. But when it comes to footballers they have to have the passport of the country they are claiming citizenship for and I’m sure I read Bellingham had applied for an Irish one to bend the EU players rule.

Yes 5 years you have to reside in any EU country is the rule, so how can he claim Irish citizenship then? Do footballers have special treatment?

Bellingham has an Irish grandparent.

Yes I mentioned the 5 years just in response to people in Sweden you mentioned but it doesn’t affect Bellingham as his claim is through his grandparents.

Sounds like a plan! Just one issue - how do you address the huge drop in revenue this season? The budget will be much lower than last season's
Are you expecting Cooper 's, Worrall's and the DM's salaries combined to be lower than Souza's?
How will the loan fees and salaries be funded?

Parachute payments
Sale of Souza
Offloading of practically the entire squad from last season

But hey, let them tell you they're skint if you want

I don’t think they have said that. It’s the members of this forum who have made those claims: repeatedly !

Whilst getting this cunt off the books for treble what we paid for him represents our best ever bit of transfer business and I’ll be able to enjoy next season without watching his impression of an air traffic controller as his man runs through on goal and scores yet again…….

It does make me feel really old that the mighty AC Milan (and Serie A in general) I remember from Sundays watching Football Italia have sunk so low they are prepared to give Souza a game.

Or maybe they know a good player when they see one.

I think we'll go with that.

 

[HeySethUTB]

Ac Milan wanted coulibaly for £10m, yeah definitely spot good players. The work ethic of raising a player’s value, well done boys

It's getting to the point on this forum. There are so many wums and pigs on the wind up that's it's actually the. Contrary opinion to. Say something intelligent

Maybe he’ll turn into Pirlo or Kaka with the right players around him, but I can’t see it personally.

He’s already kaka.

 

[LJBlade]

Yeah European clubs rarely pay the vastly inflated UK transfer fees. I suspect we’ll end up with £20 million max. Which would still be a good deal to get him off our books.

“end up with £20 million”

Were you expecting more than that?

“€35m-rated”

Sssssshhhhhhhhhh

 

[SouthStandGBlock]

This is the stance I've assumed, hoping the AC Milan deal goes through.....

 

[jono_t2000]

Do we reckon that his agents told him scouts were going to be watching him against Rovrum... he definitely seemed more enthusiastic than normal

Very probably

Says it all if so

Best game he’s had for the Blades…..he played like he did at Forest early on last season before he cramped up

I'd say Luton away when he scored. Was class that day

I mean Vini is worth about £40million right? Best player in the squad and all that.

 

[Jim Mcdonald]

There’s a reason some of the big clubs want to sign him, I think he’ll take the Championship by storm so he will, it’s such a piss weak league he will be a shining light.

Happy if we sell for big coin but also happy if he stays so I am, it’s win win really. If he’s sold we sign 3 top class championship players and piss the league, if he stays he will be the best midfielder in the league so he will and we’ll still storm the league.

Milan have just bought a defensive midfielder, you'd think Nixon would have spotted that...

From Gullit, van Basten and Rijkaard to Vini....

Fulham signing Smith- Rowe so that option might be closed

Totally different types of player so I would think they’ll still be looking for a defensive midfielder after theirs joined Bayern.

yes they are the smith - rowe signing wont have any bearing on them going after souza not a fan of souza with his attitude but we cant lose on this one sell him and it gets us at least cooper and worrall in keep him and he could be the best defensive midfielder in the championship

With Palinha going to "ze Germans", I'd reckon they have a bit of extra money in the back pocket to spend on a replacement. They don't have anyone who can drop straight in and do that role the same way, and while Vini would perhaps be less effective in there, he's a very reasonable option to look at to fill that spot. They've spent a lot on Smith-Rowe, but as a shortarse who can dribble, he doesn't fit the bill to be a defensive midfielder like that.

Talk sport reporting they are going in with a bid of £30m for McTominay. Seems they are wanting bigger fish than our Vini.
