Cardiff battle arsenal and spurs for 15millon rated striker

Fri May 17, 2013 2:30 pm

Even if we don't sign gomis, the papers writing stuff like this about cardiff city going for an ambitious bid for gomis and battling teams like spurs and arsenal for a players signature shows how far we have come as a club don't you think?
And I rekan it raises the profile of our club and makes us look like an ambitious club going places.

fair point, but doesnt mean there is any truth behind it.

Ive heard anything between 15 and 8m for this guy, would be a great signing but im not holding out much hope.

Yeah I agree there! These sort of headlines are only good for the club. Other players will see this and think "wow ok, they're ambitious!" and that's great! That might be the difference between getting our targets and not. Personally, although I don't know much about the guy, £15m is a lot. I'd rather us go and pay £10m for either Jordan Rhodes or Darren Bent.

I think it will happen all summer because Tan foolishly announced to the world that he has 25 million burning a hole in his pocket. :roll:

You'd like us to go and pay £10 million for Darren Bent? Now that really WOULD be sending out a message that we've got money to burn!

Anyone who thinks we are going to be buying one player for 15million this season needs there head testing :shock:

Am I missing something? An England International that scores goals for fun (when he's allowed to play) and you think that £10m is over-priced??? In this day and age? Righto

Agreed. But none of us know for sure how much Tan is really going to spend. Lets be honest no team will give away that information it will only alert rival clubs to hike prices up etc. lets all just sit back and see. Hopefully the most exciting transfer window in our history. :thumbup:

Gotta be carefull signing big name players at the mo I reckon anyway QPR are great example you got some players on 20k a week others on 150k a week in same starting lineup I believe that could cause problems between players and ruin team spirit I think we should work our way up step by step gradually keeping a balance within the squad intill you get the point where everyones on big wages and everyones a top premier league class player!
