It was reported in Italy as a straight loan for Andrea, without even a first priority or agreed fee to sign, never mind an obligation.
Did you not ask this the other day? If not apologies. Niasse is £10m. Omar is £5m. The others aren't known, at least by me.
If we stay up, what do you think we'd have to shell out? Because if he keeps that kind of form, I don't think we'd get him at all.
He's played one game, made a decent pass and two Paul McShane moments. Let's not get too carried away.
Not sure if I'm alone but if Marco keeps us, I'd expect another major overhaul in the summer. We'll be done to the bare bones again plus I'd expect players like Davies, Elmo, Maloney, Diomande, Meyler and Keane all to leave
It's not the transfer fee, it's his £70k a week wages. To pay that over a long term he'd have to be some player. There's also a lot more options available in the summer and I'm sure we could bring in someone cheaper.
There are lots of cheaper people, but if he turns out to be decent, we've got an Italian international who's played for one of the biggest clubs in Europe.
See I don't. I've never been convinced he's consistent enough in the top flight to effectively replace Huddlestone. Or Livermore.
Course he wouldn't replace Huddleston, but we wouldn't miss much if he stood in for Livermore. In fact in some ways he'd be an improvement
He's made plenty of appearances this season, including a 5-1 stuffing at Liverpool (which he scored in, to be fair).
