Freiburg's general manager Dirk Dufner says still no bid for # Cisse from Rovers

1 hour ago via web

And why is the 'general manager' commenting on something that hasnt happened?? Trying to create an auction? Are we being clever and waiting so they dont demand top wack?

He'd have to be insane to go to Russia, nobody should be subject to this (from a Zenit fan)

Russia still has a culture of racism in football, especially Zenit:

Still no bid

Seems like the player himself and his agents really wants the move to Rovers, but we are trying to get the lowest price possible.

Personally can understand Rovers reluctance to pay 75k.. this list is from a year ago but won't of changed that much.

75k a week is 3.9m per annum that would put Cisse just below the top 50 earners.. Mirror mind.. but cant be to far off

He's not worth £75k p/w at this juncture. He's not proven himself to be a world-class striker yet, as evidenced by the lack of interest in him from the bigger clubs.

If he's demanding anything over £50k p/w basic I'd look elsewhere.

you wont get any top class strikers nowadays for less than 10 million, even a 19 year old rookie has gone for over 10 million (in payments). if you want the best you have to pay the best.

But is he the best? or even anywhere close to? He's had 1 great season therefore his value has risen dramatically.

Totally unproven in the prem.

Well we are open to your suggestions?

Its ok saying he's unproven, but to get a proven premier league striker, the right age, with potential to improve further, your going to have to spend much more than £12m.

Price isn't the big issue here.. it's more down to his excessive wage demands, Drogba was on 65k until a season or two ago, Keane is on 65k even Joe Cole who went for his pay day on a free is apparently on less than 75k, Modric was already world class when he moved and is on 65k according to various newspaper reports, arshavin is on 80k.. even the average pay at Manu is lower than his wage demands... madness IMO for the long term structure of the club.

Sure pay 75k for world class but is he there yet?

West Brom signed Peter Odemwingie for peanuts last summer, he scored 15 league goals.

If you look hard enough you don't have to spend shed loads to get quality players. We've been doing that for the best part of a decade.

risky, id rather we snapped up bellamy and wright phillips instead

That would probably cost about 8 million or so up front anyway, more in wages than Cisse, and last us how long? Besides, we've no use for SWP when we have Hoilett.
