With MGP - that is fair enough. We took him from an unknown and he has served 3 or 4 year. Benni is a 1 season wonder, who just wants more cash! -

I cannot believe he has credited the West Ham interest also. To me that shows a complete disrespect to our club, team, Hughes and all the fans! Set up the bidding war. If they are willing to pay £17 million for Bent then id say given his age £15 million will cover it! I dont want a player in that squad that isnt committed to us. -

Id say £12 million as a minimum if Chelsea are sniffing around!! -

Backroom staff can be very important - most of my squad are progressing all the time aswell as super fit! Iv got the youth of Treacy and Kane both pushing for 1st team slots. I signed Defoe for £10 million and he is top scorer for us with half the season gone. Benni is off to Chelsea in summer for £12 million. -

Id like City away as the 1st game. We usually do well at their place and at this rate their squad may still be under construction by then! Perfect time to get them. Anyone know what date the fixtures are released? -

All the keepers mentioned above are not good enough. Kasper is one of my reserve keepers, however he isnt even the best one in that squad. I need a quality young keeper that isnt going to cost me over £5 million, but can compete with Issakson for the shirt! In my 2nd season iv just won the league, runner up in league cup and got the last 16 in the champs league - With an average age of just 22! -

Id say £10 million is the absolute minimum. At the end of the day he is hitting 30, he is due the 2nd season (where he will be marked alot more closely) and we only paid a quarter of that amount! Anything less then no thanks! -

Good formations to play when your new to the game and your squad isnt the best is a 1-3-4-2 Play with the sweeper and play with your defence pushing up. Play both your wingers with small arrows going forward and set the team to hard tackling and mixed passing. Aslong as you stick with a tactic long enough it will eventually start working. In my 1st season i finished 4th. Im in my second season @ Man City and i am currently 2nd, 1 point behind Arsenal, still in the champs league and in the final of the league cup. Im on the lookout for a talented young keeper, any ideas anyone? -

Gutted with what i have read about what Benni has been saying - however our club is bigger than any 1 player! So lets move onwards and upwards! He will learn - just like Bellamy, he should listen to Savage! IF he goes then the absolute minimum has to be £10 million. -

Personally i do not believe Benni will go - i believe he is a man of his word and when he came here he said he wasnt interested in the big 4 teams as he wouldnt play week in week out. He also said he was here to play for us and that he had to repay the faith shown in him by rovers. So i fully expect him to stay! IF not then £10 million has to be the least we take! Viduka is available for free, maybe he would make up for some of the missed goals if he goes?! -

Benni McCarthy will not leave Rovers in summer! FACT! If you believe the sun, only a few days after the original interview in the telegraph then you are dafter than daft. He will stay Loyal! -
Gone off his performances lately - No dont accept around £12 million. Keep hold, he seems happy, hes just got a new deal. Re-consider the situation in 2 years! We are trying to build and the TV money should allow us to do that further
-
Id expect Lita to start ahead of Derbyshire - hes a better player and he is in good form.
-
Mokoena is like a new player at the moment. His run of games has helped him settle and he has improved dramatically, the last few games he has been bossing the midfield ala Savage. His passing is improving and he didnt deserve the sending off yesterday. (it was a little harsh, when you consider Hamman staying on)

Top young signings are - Luca Crispino, Cliff Hoxhaj (think thats the spelling), Danny Haynes. Im in my 8th season. History has been 1st 3 years at Blackburn - Won the league, Euro Cup and Champions Cup, aswell as 2 runners up in cup finals. Finished 6th, 2nd and 1st Moved to Boro where i saved them from relegation to finish 14th and runners up of the FA Cup Seasons 5-7 Manager of Tottenham - Won the league and FA Cup double, followed by the charity shield and super cup. Then retained the league. Finished 4th, 1st and 1st. Now in my 1st season at Hannover, board expectations was to avoid relegation in their 1st season in the top flight, currently 5th with 2 games to go. Think after this il move clubs again as the german league is boring! Blackburn have just got to the final of the Euro cup, whilst tottenham were knocked out of the Champions cup at semi Final stage - so it looks like i left behind 2 very strong teams. Both also have a status of rich and both have improved stadiums. I tend to buy youth players and loan them out and then once they have some experience i throw them into my team. -
[Archived] Should Dunny Have Come Home?
Hughesy replied to blinddevotion's topic in Football Messageboard Archive
Delighted, especially because bolton were also in for him!! -
The truth about Lucas, as i told you all about in summer, is that he was looking for 45k per week basic and rovers wernt prepared to pay him that. Following from that he got the huff and dug his heels in. So for me, the sooner he goes, the better!

[Archived] Matt Derbyshire
Hughesy replied to Proud to be a Cobbler's topic in Football Messageboard Archive
Well done matty, much better player and talent than Gallagher. Hope he continues to get the opportunities for 20 minutes here and there. -
Agree 100% i also was watching his performance closely and i felt that his passes were weak and it was almost like he wanted Liverpoll to take the ball and score, especially near the end when he hit the ball infield to Gerrard to break with. Sell him to a foreign team - i dont want to see him playing for a rival club in the premier league. Then make a move for Distin.
-
How many goals has Nonda got so far? He managed 2 against Arsenal and also the 1 were he got us 3 points, any more? As for gallagher, he is poor, not premiership quality and another youngster who has let money get to his head and made him believe he has already made the grade. Well he hasnt and I for one would be happy to see him sold with a % of next sale added into the transfer just incase.
-
The guy is also quality on football manager so thats him sorted! One to watch!
-
1st chance iv had to get on here since last week and after his goal celebration there is only one word for Lucas Neill and it Rhymes with Banker!! Sell him on the 1st of Jan. Bye bye big head!
