Gestede

How can it be concluded outside of a transfer window?
I'm sorry but your fistpump blindness is totally absurd

They would simply announce that the transfer will become permanent on January 1st when the window opens, not say it's only with a view. Lewandowski has already been announced as a Bayern player next season, but that's not possible in your opinion.

This. Someone looks abit silly

Why? The fact a transfer fee has been agreed is irrelevant. If Rudy performed badly, would Blackburn have completed the deal to have him permanently, or would they have backed out saying they no longer want him? It would also have been up to our manager and up to Rudy himself to decide if he wanted to commit his future to Blackburn. Transfer fees regularly get agreed with the player failing to agree terms. Use some brains for once.

What you waffling on about? The point is the sale was arranged before Ole arrived, whether he played shit or not the sale was in place, Ole had nothing to do with it as he was not at the club when this arrangement was made

Exactly, the sale was ONLY in place! Many transfers are in place but don't go through. I don't even know why we are having this discussion anyway as I thought bringing Kenwyne Jones in to replace Rudy was an improvement. Allowing Maynard, Mason and Cornelius to leave and then only replace them with Berget however, and then allegedly bidding 5 million for McCormack on deadline day was bizarre to say the least.

So you think bidding 5 mil on the championships top scorer is bizarre? But paying 8.5 mil on a boy who had 1 decent season in a league no better than the spl was a good idea? You really are a weird one

Tommy Smith

Some of the comments on here are total madness.

I haven't said that at all. Try reading properly.

So explain to us all what is bizarre about allegedly bidding 5 mil for McCormack, we all all waiting

GESTEDE.

Gestede was a decent player and no worse an option off the bench than we have now. He's better than all the shite Ole has brought in recently.

Every thread descends into Malky Vs. Ole battles. Lets be honest Milky was out of his depth in this league and fucked us over, any manager was going to struggle after the way Milky mismanaged the club.

Mate read what your posting for fucks sake

Lewandowski is different as he's free to talk to anyone cos his contract is out in 6 months ergo javi guerra for us

Blackburn took Rudy on a loan with a view to sign him permanently meaning fee etc was agreed and barring him failing a medical or a new manager coming in etc we had already agreed to sell him to Blackburn once transfer window opened our end of the deal was done ony Blackburn could then decide they didn't want him so even if ole had wanted to keep him there is no way he could as the loan contract stipulated that Blackburn had agreed a fee and paperwork was signed to say that he would become a Blackburn player after a medical in January

Tonteg having an abolute Lionel here. Great to see.

Rudy was not liked by most onj this forum. So stop talking like MM should of kept him for his talent. He got slated bby you lot week in week out!

Tommy Smith was a fantastic player for us until he got injured. He was never the same after his injury, but that's just bad luck. The performances Tommy Smith put in before his injury helped us to win the title. Smith was a key player in our team when we won our first 10 home games of the season and that gave us the momentum and confidence to win the title.

Key player

He only played in 3 of those 10 winning games but dont let facts get in the way.

The key player in that run was Peter Whittingham

FACTS

Malky wouldnt know a centre forward if he fell over one, he's not very good at right backs either

Do people seriously believe Gestede was good enough ?

The boy sure worked hard and was a big lump who at times was a nuisance but he lacked the first touch, positioning and all round ability to make it as a premier league striker. Although, I would argue a case that he is equally as good as K. Jones and would definitely put in a better shift than Jones.

Gestede had 57 games for us (lots were cameo roles from the bench) and only scored 7. That isn't overly impressive and the only game I came out of thinking he had done alright was vs Liverpool in the Carling cup where he won almost every header. However, even though he was winning the headers the ball was hardly ever going to a Cardiff player. He did score a few important goals but all in all I just dont think he was good enough.

Never given a chance by malky just like many others.

Yet it was Ole that sold him.

The deal was done before Ole was at the club, Ole didn't sell him

Another player along with Joe Mason not given a chance by Malky, even though others weren't delivering the goods.

Mason has so much more potential than Gestede, Gestede isn't good enough for our squad also.

The flick didnt even lead to a goal ffs. Nothing like Ibras.

4 in 17 games for Blackburn hes hardly set the world alight, yet people complaining we got rid of him ffs

He had a good run where he scored 4 in 6 but hasnt scored for 6 games.

Bottom half championship / top half of League 1 player at best.

Certainly not got the standard to be a regular for Premiership, or standard required for a team hoping for promotion out of the Championship.

Fairplay Tonteg has talked total bullshit on this thread, has to be up there with the most clueless posters on this forum.
