Not really, at 21 he has plenty of years left cardiff will more than get their moneys worth, especially if he helps us stay up

You think 9m is a lot for a future England centre back? Caulker has Premiership experience, is powerful, pacey, comfortable on the ball, good athlete, reads the game well, he barely has a weakness! 9m is a bargain if true!

9 mil for caulker is a good deal. He's english and english players go for more than average player. he's young and a promising cetnre back.

Great deal.

Jack in peace here. Well done on this deal Cardiff, he is a good player, potentially a great one.

Seems a lot but if he impresses well, we could easily get 16-18m in this market off one of the big 6, i.e Cahill to Chelsea

When you think how much the jacks want for ashley williams then I see it as a great deal :ayatollah:

Re: STEVEN CAULKER!!!!

Would be the definition of a WOW signing :ayatollah:

Good Lord!

Re: STEVEN CAULKER!!!!

Wed Jul 31, 2013 12:59 pm

I don't think he is as good as people make out but still young and raw and Malky being an ex defender will teach him loads. Great signing and great potential.

What was he like for you? For me he looks like a pacey CB whose good in the air, well worth it

Cornelius
Brayford
Moore
Caulker

Fantastic signings to add to our squad that was already better than Palace and Hull who have added rubbish compared to us.
Would you take any of hull's signings really?

Yannick Sagbo
Danny Graham * (Loan)
Steve Harper
Allan McGregor
Curtis Davies
Ahmed Elmohamady
George Boyd
Maynor Figueroa

Or Palace?

José Campaña
Jerome Thomas
Dwight Gayle
Stephen Dobbie
Antonio Pedroza * (Loan)


I wouldn't take any over the other players we have signed or have already in the squad. Malky's going about this transfer window perfectly, aim high and you will get a some quality players, not every player will come, but if you aim high enough and for a lot of high quality players some are bound to take the chance! :ayatollah:

Fooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooking hell! Boom, Malky strikes again, top, top signing, out of the blue as well, only heard rumours yesterday and signed today. Happy as a pig in Swansea :malky: :thumbup: :ayatollah:

Re: STEVEN CAULKER!!!!

Wed Jul 31, 2013 1:08 pm

Malky denied it as well! Extremely sneaky

Re: STEVEN CAULKER!!!!

Wed Jul 31, 2013 1:08 pm

Elmohamady is good on his day but I wouldn't take him into our current team though... You're right that CCFC have done better business than the others... Malky isn't panicking at all

Re: STEVEN CAULKER!!!!

Wed Jul 31, 2013 1:09 pm

Not coming here to sit on the bench so who is going to be our other centre half?

Turner or Hudson?

Re: STEVEN CAULKER!!!!

Wed Jul 31, 2013 1:09 pm

9 mil is a bargain, the prices asked for young English players never mind a possible England captain are ridiculous, well done malky :malky:

Re: STEVEN CAULKER!!!!

Wed Jul 31, 2013 1:10 pm

Will a former Swansea player ever be welcomed quite so warmly as Mr Caulker?

You would say our captain Hudson

Re: STEVEN CAULKER!!!!

Wed Jul 31, 2013 1:13 pm

Terry Phillips would NEVER have printed this unless he'd been assured the lad
was nailed on and signed up. What a f*cking signing. I daresay Spurs will get
a right wedge from any sell-ons, but who cares. We will make something if
and when he leaves. Oh the joys, the jacks will be in tears :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
The jack working in my garden looks like he's just swallowed a frog :lol: :lol:

Hudson. He's more experienced at this level and deserves his time in the Pl.

With this signing, a left back/CDM and a winger, I'd expect 12-14

Wed Jul 31, 2013 1:14 pm

not really a ex swansea player, he was only on loan.

people seem to forget legg and bowen who played for swansea before coming to cardiff.
