TheExile Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 (edited) I think his agent is possibly the one that controls his moves where I think others in the team are more mature. Poveda has some incredible clubs on his cv that his agent can point to as reasoning but his career hasn’t fully kicked in yet at 24. Nonetheless Sunderland have given him a platform where we wouldn’t or couldn’t. He did look quite subdued talking about his move when compared to the beaming smile talking about playing for rohl in January. He should have just told his agent to do one and gone where he would be happy during a key season for him if that was what he wanted. I am glad we didn’t go beyond a structure that we have in place as it shows an element of progress Edited July 25 by TheExile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoylandOwl Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 12 hours ago, Reesh said: I've heard a couple of stories regarding Poveda, apparently he was on £6k a week at Leeds and wanted 4 x that and a long contract, we offered 2 years plus 1 year option and under 20k I'd heard similar, other than he wanted more than that... Or his agent did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tylluan Posted July 25 Author Share Posted July 25 Poveda was definitely on £6k a week and we were paying all of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tylluan Posted July 28 Author Share Posted July 28 (edited) Nobody is paying £4.5m for Ugbo, not even Stoke. I'd walk away now and say good luck funding his wages because even though they're part of City Group they've had sod all money out of them which is why they hoping for an auction on Ugbo. They couldn't wait to get him out on loan last season because they couldn't afford him so how they going to afford him now? With Ugbo it's a buyers market and I wouldn't go above £1.5m as he'll come with a hefty wage. I know he fitted in with the way we played last season but there are others out there that could do the job for around £1.5m. Michael Obafemi is in his last year at Burnley and they won't be renewing. Sydney van Hooijdonk didn't have much luck at Norwich but there's a player in there even though Bologna don't want him. He's currently on trial at Breda and Bologna would probably let him go for six figures. I'd even ask Ipswich how much for Al Hamadi before going past £2m for Ugbo Edited July 28 by Tylluan 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skamp Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 So hang o,n and forgive me if I'm late to the party. A club can have a wank player and be in the shit money wise. Said wank player is sold for [say] £40m to parent club and then loaned back to them again, promising to pay 98% of wages? Wank player continues to be wank but small club now has £40m in the bank. Please tell me I'm dreaming this shit up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheExile Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 For some reason all the journos are being coy on who it actually is. The only article from abroad before a bid was mentioned as being accepted linked us to a loan to buy. Gut feeling is if this was true the local journalists from the respective club would have claimed it. Unless it’s allocated to someone tomorrow you’ve got to wonder if it’s another agent or Las Palmas trying to move things along and get Wednesday or another party to panic into finalising something 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tylluan Posted July 31 Author Share Posted July 31 So he pushes Hall in the 21s and Charles stays with the first team or goes out on loan, dependant on how long Hamer takes to get over his injury. Danny's already said he wants a No1, a seasoned pro, and an upcoming talent as his first team 3. I don't know if Shelvey is still training with the club but I can only see him stopping if Charles goes out on loan and we can't bring in better or promote Hall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he was a short notice pull-in to cover Hamer's injury and while Charles was away with Ireland. If we want him to be available and clear his ban off then we can't get him on a non contract basis, so I would imagine a provisional 6 months, if we keep him, and it'll be on a pittance (he was on about £800 a week at Dundalk) as he gets to train with us and then look for a new club with his ban wiped clean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tewksbury Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Bit left field, but I wouldn't be surprised if Gassama went out on loan. Frees up a work permit waiver, he's not getting the minutes that Musaba is and should walk into a L1 starting 11. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
