Will be really sad to see him go. A great signing and a really classy player. I Know Doucs has been off form for a while but I always saw those 2 plus Hughes as the strongest part of our team and this would be 2 of the 3 gone....
So we are paying these players full wages to do nothing but moan/agitate for a move. This would be disgraceful under normal circumstances but seems even more ludicrous today. This makes me dislike certain players even more.
I don't think it's the players who are offering themselves around to any club that will have them in a desperate attempt to balance the books.
Of all the players the club appear to be ready to lose and being linked with moves away, Capoue would be top of the list of those I would hope gets reintegrated into the squad should there be a lack of viable suitors. NB. I'm assuming here that we'd rather keep Sarr, Suarez and Estupinan as they're here training and intend on keeping Hughes once back from injury.
I mean tbf we have't heard the likes of Capoue, Kiko and Welbeck say they want to leave. GD and Doucouré yes and Deeney still thinks he can do it at a higher level.
No but their agents have been doing that for them plus the fact that they aren't training with the first team. Last season left a sour taste and this is making it difficult to get rid of.
If that is true, who do you think makes that call? Probably the same people who decided not to involve them in any friendly matches to avoid them getting injured.
I'd agree. But if those random American websites that pretend they know all the salaries were correct, we'd be mad to offload Kiko as they have him as one of the worst paid players in the squad, earning less than Navarro.
Be a bit of a an eye opener for our Under 18s if those that "want away" are training with them! Capoue/Welbeck/Pereya. Although sure I've seen and read they are training with the 1st team.
Didn't Leventhal suggest Femenia (and a couple of others) signed new contracts in the latter half of last season?
I think those on their way out are probably training/keeping fit amongst themselves - there was a vid of training sessions posted by the club a week or two ago which had some players in drills but Capoue and Welbeck just jogging together around the pitch.
Does anyone know who this chancer is? Suarez needs a new agent, this guy is more tinpot than Luton. He's probably scared suarez will upgrade his agent soon so he's trying to cash in fast.
Not a problem as we need to be aiming higher. The guy has done nothing memorable since SHAFT. Can you dig it ?
Transfermarkt has him listed as being represented by Wasserman. Although it also has Andre Gray, which can't be right as I am pretty sure he has Jorge Mendes as his agent.
Ah what a great film that was - 'Warriors..come out to plaa-aayyy' Must find it on Amazon. The Wanderers was the other great cult film from my youth I haven't seen for donkeys years
Watched Warriors quite recently..... best left in the memory as a classic. That's why i didn't watch the Wanderers again.... don't f**k with the baldies.
