smokie36 Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 OK we will see Bale for £40m? Ya better get a bigger bank loan mate. Every player has his price is true but Bale is not for sale. As said above the right offer for Modric i think may be accepted. Mind you with CL returning to the Lane next season why would he leave?
carmine Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 If we buy Modric i will show my arse on Thai Visa So is Ferguson perpetually tapping him up just for fun? If you finish runners up in the league which is most likely then this will signal a mini spending spree.
alfieconn Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 If you don't qualify for the Champions League he is off,said so himself. You got something wrong with your earoles Red, listen to the video again Well Alfie he said he has to do what is best for himself,from that i think you can see that he is thinking along the lines of above.He is a gimp though so it is easy to confuse his ramblings. A gimp or a chimp? He ain't going nowhere pal, end of! Modric on the other hand will start to alert all his suitors anytime now and i hope Levy gets rid of him. Afterall we've knownof his intentions for a while now and should have lined up a replacement. Well, lets hope we have anyway. Huddlestone back next season is a major boost mind. To be fair Carms i dont think we need to buy someone to replace him especially if Hudd is back, we will have him, Parker, Sandro and Livermore for the defensive midfield role, might as well use the 40m for other areas .
MrRed Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Well i hope we do spend some money this close season,and i am sure we will! Harry looked a bit pissed off yesterday in his interview didn't he....."why do people think we are a selling club"

Listen to what Levy has to say.

Mindyou, we will be happy to sell you Modders for the usual silly money.

Harry looked a bit pissed off yesterday in his interview didn't he....."why do people think we are a selling club" Chelsea know were not! Mindyou, we will be happy to sell you Modders for the usual silly money. We stand half a chance of keeping him if we qualify for the champs lge, i presume the c/l bonus's we will pay him if we progress,, will go some way to balancing the HUGE difference in wages that chesea and one presumes others were going to pay him. If we go out early well jan could be an option for him to be sold.and 50 mil sounds good enuf money. let's be rational about it, is there anyone on here that works and would turn down a doubling or even a trebling of wages? once you could probably say no but second time round, third time round? difficult.

smokie36 Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Nah the Arse will fall out of that lot. Let's win both games and nick third.
rijit Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 <deleted> ARI!!! 90 mins gone and we need to win this game and what does he do, bring a defensive midfielder on .
smokie36 Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 Very frustrating. Now we have to wait until next weekend to secure a CL spot. I dunno if I can take much more...
mrbojangles Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 I dunno if I can take much more... tell me about it
smokie36 Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 I dunno if I can take much more... tell me about it I hear you but it could be CL...Europa League or fark all for us. I hope its us then the Geordies then Arsenal with Chelski losing the cup final and out of Europe. Now I'm going to wipe my chin....
Troyron Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 Can someone please tell me why a manager would put on def. midfielder instead of Defoe when we need a goal? Was it that AV was completely over us, and we needed to strenghten the midfield? Or was just because Harry is useless when it comes to making changes? PS! You all read the rumors saying several players were complaining to Levy about Harrys and the other coaches training methods. Especially no focus on tactics and set pieces. Well heres a "fun" fact. Tottenham have created 274 corners so far this season, scoring 7....that makes about 40 corners per goal!!! 1

The closest was a shot one which ended with Walker blasting it over... Useless on set pieces. We have a player like Gallas, who has scored 5-8 goals every season for other teams, and mostly on corners, he has scored one at Tottenham!!! Stoke away in his first season. We also have players like Kaboul, Sandro, Bale, King and Dawson. So the hight and good headers are there...

Hope is all I have left.

Giving them to modric?, looks an easy option, Will it make any difference? who knows. But for sure they cant be any worse.

trevorg Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 Our problem is that we have too many players, who get into an attacking position, and then try multiple step overs and kick the ball at the on-rushing pair of opposite teams feet, both from their defence and midfield! Learn to shoot, on target and from 18 yards, no more, no less!

Troyron Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 To get the players to do what we want, and then I mean getting Bale to stay on the left. Ensuring Kaboul does not go on runs with the ball etc, they should do something like this: Good stuff. Does any of you guys recognize any of the players?
