Zatman Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Supposedly Villa have made a bid for Cork City FC prospect Brian Lenihan who's a LB. http://www.herald.ie/sport/soccer/cork-braced-for-lenihan-bidding-war-30484470.html Arsenal were looking at him a few weeks back and looks talented. Got a bad lokking injury 2 weeks back though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bose Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Can't see Milner going anywhere us it's a sale as City need him for their homegrown quota especially as Jack Rodwell has left and Richards also looks like he will be out the door there. There is also no way we'll be able to afford his wages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob182 Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Please do. There's nothing wrong with mentioning a 'cheeky' bid, loan or transfer. If you don't ask, you don't get. You don't get anyway. In a market where Borini is worth £14m and Rodwell is going for £10m, nobody is going to be giving players away for **** all. I saw earlier that Derby have got a Real Madrid player on loan. Now, I don't have a clue whether he's the next big flop to come from Spain, or whether he is a promising player that could have maybe made an impression at a Lower Prem team, but Derby wouldn't have got that loan if they didn't ask.

A Madrid youth player, not established internationals on £60k-£80k a week like mentioned before. Just because he plays for RM doesn't mean he is anything special either, so I see no big deal in Derby signing him. The players mentioned here were Milner, Moses etc... ,they will not be coming here, we will not pay those wages and City and Chelsea are not going to loan them to us for nothing, no matter how cheeky the bid is.

rodders0223 Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Javi Garcia earns close to £80,000. We are handing out contracts worth £20k right now. 1. He would never come here. 2. City, along with every other club are a business, they need to recoup as much of that as they can and I guarantee the teams interested will be offering a lot more than what we can right now.

Too true, I thought it was a ridiculous idea when Martinez brought in Deulofeu and we signed Bowery, I mean seriously, one has English league experience the other plays for a poxy second team in Spain....no contest. Madrid constantly let their crappier players go out on loan or for cheap and teams get duped buying them, I mean who'd want Mata, Eto'o, Valero, Cambiasso, Negredo, Callejon, etc. certainly not us. They were trying to shift Morata affew years back, imagine if we'd have signed that train wreck.

People need to get into the real **** world. Well in fact it's Lerner who needs to get in the real world IMO! He needs to look at all our young, hungry and cheap players who weren't good enough as they exit the club on loan and decide if he wants more of this kind of tripe to brought into the club? If you pay peanuts etc? We are in desparate need of quality in our midfield we cannot allow Lambert to purchase a bunch of no hopers and hope one is decent. Lerner needs to realise that Prem quality players need Prem level wages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that unrealistic to think we, or another lower Prem club, could get one of them loan. Even if our wage structure leaves a lot to be desired, I'm sure Lerner would still let Lambert spend around £40k/£50k p/w on a player if he believed it would help secure our Premier League status for a season.

John Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I would guess Roy Keane may have played a big part in suggesting Brian Lenihan and his being here would have a big influence in the player's decision on joinig us. I would guess the price and wages would also be right. Worth a punt in that case I would suggest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently he hasn't with Ki. Not that we know what the wages are. The above players mentioned are good players. Even if we try to loan them and were prepared to pay the wages, I doubt we will be the only club interested and the most attractive offer for them. Those players are all unrealistic for us I'm afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus throw in the fact he has no Premier League experience whereas Lallana was one of the stand out players for two seasons.
