adsfortheblues Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Not necessarily. Middlesbrough have spent £7 million this summer already and won't get an embargo. Leeds got theirs lifted and have already gone on to spend millions on Chris Wood. I suppose you could count Zurab as being Asian (Georgian) although Georgia counts as a UEFA nation most consider it as Asian. Also if we are being picky - Australia play in the Asia cup and turkey is half Asia and we've had a few Turks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neal Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Just talking to my mate who is a die hard Wigan fan. Recons Kim is a good player, goes missing from time to time but on his day is a goodun, told me to think of him as a championship Jordi Gomez. Says he's more of a passer and was hoping they could keep him at Wigan but says wages were massive... Which could mean we miss out to Sheff Wed's. Also recons he'll want a decent signing on fee too. All things considered I'd like to see this one come off but recon we've little chance of this one coming off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donnermeat Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Korean websites saying he travelled to England yesterday, mentioned Forest and Wednesday too but us as the front runners. Could be worth something commercially too, not that our thick as pig sh1t lot could capitalise on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamRochina Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 People are saying he wanted 15th a week from Sheffield Wednesday So unless we can offer some kind of goal bonus and double your wages if we go up kinda thing then I don't see this happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backroom DE. Posted July 18, 2015 Backroom Share Posted July 18, 2015 Sociedad (Moyes) after Rhodes according to a strong Spanish source on social media. Do Sociedad have £10m to spend? I don't really follow La Liga in any great detail, but I was under the impression the majority of the clubs below Barca, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid didn't have that kind of cash to spend. Just looking at transfermarkt and it seems their record fee is around £9.8M for Carlos Vela in 12/13, other than that they've rarely spent above £5M on a player. Assuming we're asking for around £10M, Rhodes would potentially be a record transfer signing for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T J Hooker Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 I actually think Rhodes would be far more suited to playing in the top league of a country like spain or france than he would playing in the English prem and he seems level headed and smart enough to take a move like that in his stride.

Backroom DE. Posted July 18, 2015 Backroom Share Posted July 18, 2015 I cant see any club outside of England spending 10m+ on a player who has never played top league football It does seem like an unjustifiable fee, particularly as Rhodes does not even play regularly for his country. Of course, if Venky's lowered the asking price to £5m-£7m that may change things, but there have been no signs at this point to suggest they are willing to do that.

LDRover Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 That Beetlejuice guy is definitely irksome. I pointed out how crap I felt Lowe was once, and he accused me of being a Dingle. If he's inferring Lowe's a good 'un, you should've accused him of being a dingle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidMailsTightPerm Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Our manager, and a lot of the fans, will never learn to appreciate quality. Can't wait to get rid of flair players. It is usually a little less franetic in a pre season friendly - far more suited to a flair player like Cairney. Also - Furman scored a cracker for us pre-season - does that mean we should sign him as he is bound to be a success. Not saying I would have sold Cairney - but a pre-season goal isn't a guarantee of his success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're little more than glorified training sessions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
