January Transfer Window Gossip and Stuff
Andreas Hinkel has joined t'Hoops from Sevilla for £1.9m we really needed to strengthen the back 4. Let's hope for another full back.
Rumours continue about moves for Barry Robson (Dundeed Utd) and James McFadden (Everton). I'd get that back 4 fixed personally. Also a new keeper, see below. The lad at Dundee Utd looks the part.
It's surely only a matter of time till we hear where Boruc is going to. Similarly for Zurawski, rumour has it LA Galaxy are interested.

Re: January Transfer Window Gossip and Stuff
Looks like Hutton is gonna stay with the Gers unless Man Utd come up with a great offer. He has already rejected the advances of Spurs if what they say is true. Let's face it G.Neville looks ready for the scrapheap and United could do with another right-back. How is the lad. I've only seen the odd champions league game with him but he looks solid.

Re: January Transfer Window Gossip and Stuff
He's a cracking player, just came into his game over the last year or so. Will get even better with time and top quality coaching. I'd take him without thinking once about it.
Good in defence and great going forward. Has developed a little bit of the "light in his loafers" recently but I think he's been taught that.
Unfortunately for you has just signed a 5 year contract so it would probly have to be silly money. Tho' silly money to us is going rate for the EPL. It would be pure profit for the hun as he is a product of their academy.
What do you think of Boruc to the EPL.

Re: January Transfer Window Gossip and Stuff
Boruc should make the transition easy methinks. It's not so hard for keepers to settle in as long as they don't drop early clangers.
Is £8-12m silly money for Hutton. That's the fee been mentioned.

He's not worth that just now but definitely will be if he keeps going the way he is.
I say that because I don't think he's actually proven it yet, however I think he will. He's shown enough in the Champs League and at International level to be given the chance.
£8m would be a decent buy but you would be buying potential to a certain extent. The higher figures are probly just because of the long contract.

Re: January Transfer Window Gossip and Stuff
At 23 he's getting on a bit for an unfinished youngster.
Ronaldo and Rooney are younger and already vastly developed.
Defenders do take longer to mature, it's true.
I'd be happy with £8m for the lad maybe with an appearance/success based add on for another few mil.

He's hardly what I would call an unfinished youngster, I just think he's still improving. With more top level football and coaching he will achieve his full potential. That's what he would get at a club like Man Utd.
I think your idea of paying the £8m with add-ons would be a good idea and the best way forward.

Window gossip? Is that like window shopping?
You can look at it and think about when you're going to buy it but you can't actually get it? :mellow:

Yup, it is for huns.
Unless of course you get rid of your best player (Hutton, as discussed)
That's the cunt about not qualifying for the knockout stage of the Champs League. There's just no money in the WAFA cup.

Re: January Transfer Window Gossip and Stuff
I'm sure Chelsea will be splashing out.
I hear they are after that Johnny Foreigner. He looks to be a good player to be fair.

Re: January Transfer Window Gossip and Stuff
Update on Boruc. He has signed a new deal with t'Hoops. Reputed to be worth £5.5m to him over 3 years. Not huge by English standards but very substantial in the Scottish League.
-
Re: January Transfer Window Gossip and Stuff
New Japonese lad supposed to be joining t'Hoops.
Name of Koki Mizuno, apparentement the work permit is being sorted out over the next few days. He's played a few internationals but doesn't meet the 75% rule.
Thing is, that might mean Naka is on his way. Or indeed might mean he is staying.

Haftae play in more than 75% of the international matches for your country before you're granted a work permit in this one.
Well, that's the theory but it rarely works like that. It all depends how good your club lawyer is. For instance, Man Utd signed Anderson this summer and he's played for Brazil all of twice.

Re: January Transfer Window Gossip and Stuff
Celtic have signed Georgios Samaras on loan and Kozi Mizuno on a permanent basis.
Go on Bhoys. Busy day in the market today.

Re: January Transfer Window Gossip and Stuff
After going bonkers on shite yet expensive players in the summer and recently signing the perennially injured Woodgate, Spurs now reckon Hutton is a done deal - where are they getting their money from.
Jew bastards.

Re: January Transfer Window Gossip and Stuff
Maybe they sold Martin Jol to McDonalds. I noticed their profits were up.

Re: January Transfer Window Gossip and Stuff
Hutton has signed after his personal terms were improved.
Believed to have received £1M sign on fee and £33K a week wages.
Cousin move to Fulham rejected as he played for about 20 mins for Lens before going to the huns. Too many national boundaries in 1 season.
Celtic have a £2.25M option to buy Samaras if the loan works out.
-
Re: January Transfer Window Gossip and Stuff
Samaras would have to be a fool not to score 10 goals for the Bhoys this season.
Spurs FFS I wanted Hutton for Utd. :fist:
-
Re: January Transfer Window Gossip and Stuff
Samaras is an awful player; no pace, no skill, sulks a lot and didn't get many games for City last year - even when they went six months without a home goal. That's how bad he is.
Like benji said tho', he'll prolly do well in the Scotch league.
-
Re: January Transfer Window Gossip and Stuff
I'm not familiar with his work at all.
Which is obviously because he didn't play much. Wasn't he a Stuart Pears signing.

I think so. I do know that he cost about 7 million and scored maybe 5 goals in 2 years.
Unsuited, apparently, to the fast pace of premiership football.
I just think he's shite.

Re: January Transfer Window Gossip and Stuff
An ideal deal for the SPL then.
We've signed that wee Mizuno lad as well. Tho' I think that's as much for merchandising as anything else.
