If this report about us putting in a substantial bid (not sure if substantial is a word used by us or Donny), for Ben Whiteman, I wonder what Nigel must be thinking, as the impression he seemed to have was that there was very little money available for transfers?
It is understood City would now be willing offload Henriksen for £3m in order to recoup funds and also remove one of the club’s highest earners off the wage bill.
Maybe should of done this at the start of the window and not with a day to go. Very poor car dealers those two...
Philip Buckingham @PJBuckingham #hcafc want Ben Whiteman but need to sell Markus Henriksen to make that happen.
Article says they were asking £6 million!!!! Now prepared to accept half. Can't believe they didn't get at buyer at £6 million. Don't see them selling him at the new price; even more so when his wage demands won't be exactly small.
I think the Rooney to Derby move is good for them . It reminds me of us bringing Okocha in , even if he doesn't get loads of minutes on the pitch it must give a buzz about the place and increase the lads there by 10% . Reading The Decade , that is excactly what Jay Jay did for our lads by all accounts and that season didn't end too badly .
Manchester United have 'pulled out of talks' with Christian Eriksen because they feel if he does leave Spurs, he would prefer a move to Spain.
I suspect that Terry feels we may be defending even more this season given as it stands we are lightweight up front
To all those suggesting Rooney is a coach to avoid FFP are wrong. All staff costs including players, coaches, stewards, tea ladies etc.... Go towards the FFP calculations. Derby will get a sponsor to pay for it and a huge commercial boost. But they will definitely have to include his wages in the calculation. One hell of a signing mind.
Henriksen to go for 1 million then. I don’t think they’ve had any interest as he’d have gone. Same with Bowen really. Absolutely baffling nobody wants him.
Crystal Palace have rejected Everton's offer of £70m plus James McCarthy and Cenk Tosun for Wilfried Zaha. Middlesbrough have signed Anfernee Dijksteel from Charlton on a 3 year deal for £2million.
