CONFIRMED Tanganga signs on a three year contract

[Houston_Blade]

From Selles’ interview and no comment on Tanganga I’d say we’re likely to sign him, hopefully he doesn’t play at the weekend as a result but I suspect he will.

 

[Houso]

Still, this is exciting about Tanganga eh? Who does everyone think will gazzump us? I'm going with Burnley.

 

[Bell4]

I've always found watching a player in isolation in a game works best ,forget computer generated stats just open your eyes and make a judgement

Agree

I was allocated the job of watching John Ebbrell and compiling a a full root and branch report of his Utd stats .

 

[GrunkyPeep]

Didn't they want >£10m in January?

Final year of his contract and hasn't signed the one offered to him this summer.

If that cheap-as-chips release clause for PL clubs only is accurate, they must realise that it's only a matter of time before someone up there takes a punt on him. Or they can get more by selling him to us first, at a price that'll still be well below what he's worth.

At least a rain forest didn't have to be destroyed to make the paper

 

[Balham]

He can say whatever he likes. And people can respond to him however they choose.

Not exactly. There are lines which he can't overstep.

If there's any chance of PL interest then Tanganga would be best served holding off until the end of the window. Millwall can accept a bid from us but they can't force him to sign.

I would say no one here is offended, which is unfortunate for you as you strike me as someone who takes great pride in that.

Instead replace that with 'disappointed' and you're closer to the point.

I would say limited "free" speech. On this forum there is free speech. And I'm not offended. Unlike some!!!

True, sounds like the player is keen though. Main risk is getting gazumped by a PL club before he signs, once it's clear he wants away.

 

[Mojo]

Nope not embarrassed at all. But strange how some can belittle players, other fans, owners etc while using a pseudonym but all part of banter. But one comment about the nickname of London, as one said is very old, can cause some to melt down. I forgot Britain doesn't have free speech anymore, the righteous rule the social pages.

There is free speech alright, you chat shite and people call you out on it, perfectly acceptable

No one? Now I'm disappointed

Thank heavens for the safe space echo chamber of the Guardianistas that is Shoutbox, eh? Where you can all sit around and virtually hug each other.

Anyway, Tanganga eh? Whooaaar eh? Tanganga. Come on! Let's do it. Is it today dad?

Yeah thanks fuck it's not full of bigoted pricks

WEEEEZ JAPHA CAKE COH BARSTEWARDS

 

[Ndiayewillalwaysloveyou]

Wish we could just talk about Tanganga fuck sake..

Has Alex Neil been questioned?

 

[Thrice]

One would think if there was actual Premier League interest in him it would've happened by now. The comically low release clause is basically begging Premier League clubs to sign him and he's 26 now.
Maybe a club like Crystal Palace will see him as a squad option if they lose Guehi, but wouldn't he be better off coming here as a starter?

You'd have thought Burnley would be all in at that price, lost Egan-Riley for free. So they need a replacement or back up. Can't see much better options for so little a fee.

 

[PatBlade]

Would assume there is also movement for a right winger and centre forward too…lot of business to get through.

If the club are looking for a right winger there’s a good few on this thread

 

[brownblade]

Seriously, Mr righteous

Yeah seriously. It'd be nice if the next generations weren't programmed to discriminate by their parents.

Tanganga was born in London by the way. In every sense, your comment was ignorant.

[TJ blade]

Selles said it was unfair to comment on tanganga due to us playing Millwall this weekend. reading between the lines, he wont feature for Millwall and will be a blades player next week. He said "Multiple" new players could sign and be involved at the weekend

He means 1

 

[Jon Bon II]

Yeah thanks fuck it's not full of bigoted pricks

I doubt that most have got a prick between them but, anyway... Tanganga, eh? Gerrim signed!

 

[Torrix1889]

True, sounds like the player is keen though. Main risk is getting gazumped by a PL club before he signs, once it's clear he wants away.

He apparently has a £1.5m release clause for a PL team so I am sure if he is making noises for a move, Millwall would rather do a deal with us or someone outside the PL for more dosh! Maybe the player doesn't fancy a move abroad, hence the Verona bid going nowhere?

 

[Brownieblade]

He means 1

I’m more worried Selles doesn’t know the meaning of multiple

 

[shaun the blade 1961]

Just read on another forum, that Alex Neill refused to comment, when asked by a London outlet

 

[Blade56]

That's "Seemingly" Stepping Up....


Let's not get ahead of ourselves

Gaining momentum

Yeah that was my original point, why sit around waiting for Fulham or whoever to hoover him up for peanuts if they can get a respectable amount from us right now

Agree. Could see a PL club thinking let's get him for £1.5m, loan him out and if he turns into a top player we have got someone we can either a) use or b) sell on at a good profit.

Whilst we can offer a higher fee and guarantee first team football, the only thing we wont be able to compete with is Prem wages. A Fulham for example or a Palace or Brighton would think nothing of a £1.5m fee and £40K per week wages whereas we could probably go to say £4m but probably on £25 to £30K per week max.

It will depend on the player and his ambitions at the end of the day no doubt. Equally he could turn out to be not as good as everyone thinks and the PL club end up releasing him after paying £1.5m and the majority of £40K per week wages for 3 years......

 

[Brownieblade]

The clause has been there for a few years now so it’s likely there are no prem teams coming in for him

Can’t be any logical reason a Leeds/sunderland or Burnley haven’t thought let’s get him for so cheap etc etc
