De Rossi (continued)

[yayas trusty right foot]

The agent here to see Kolorov is a cover up in my opinion..

Why would City want to sell Kolorov ?

We would then have to buy a replacement, with only 2 weeks left in the window..

The guy is here to talk about DDR..

pudge its hard to stay on topic mate when dealing with wind up merchants , it was about relative values anyway same as you are on about now in fact

I'm linking the value of De Rossi to the value of Yaya, as they are important players of each team; because "iheartcity" is saying we should try and sign De Rossi for nearer £25 million.

You lot were just talking about Agger..

yep hes nowhere near world class that kid

Or maybe to do a bit of shopping, holiday anything. I do agree the Kolarov link is spurious. That doesn't make much sense though there have been a few links with Italian clubs

Right, so you say Yaya is worth £50 million and that if the club were to sell him that's what they should be looking for, at least.

So why can't Roma feel the same about De Rossi who is as, if not more important to them?

Because in 4 years he will be worth £5m. And in their financial state, they can't miss out on £35m in hopes of £50m because if we walk away they get 0. We are the only team that will pay that much for him don't you think? If they are going for the moneyball approach I can see why they would cash in.

An in 4 years RVP will be worth nothing, as will Torres, and Yaya?

I didn't say that Roma were holding out for £50 million, I was highlighting that they can "overprice" De Rossi because of how important he is to them

No I understand. I am just saying that if they are trying to reduce their debt and kind of rebuild with some youth, they can overprice him all they want. But I wouldn't be surprised if it went like this.

Roma - £50m
City-£30m
Roma - No way, £50m
City - £32M
Roma - No way, £50m
City - £35m
Roma - No way, £50m
City - ok bye bye
Roma - Wait!!! £35m sounds great!

Plus they are interested in Savic so that makes it even sweeter . 25million + Savic . They head back to Italia happy. The Serie A isn't as demanding as the PL and Savic would be a great addition to their team .

Hopefully city have been the green light to proceed with the interest of De Rossi ...
Obviously city keep the dealings hush hush as much as possible anyway ,but possibly even more so with them over the road signing van Persie maybe just maybe city want to unveil ddp after utd unveil their major signing of the summer so we can claim the limelight once again if you catch my drift ....
Here's hoping anyway

Just come onto this thread and read the last few pages. Why are people mentioning £35m? Has something been said?

I'd like to think it will go like this..

£31.5M (40M Euros) the same as at the same juncture last year, and there must be some form of agreement between both clubs if we have been allowed to talk with his agent. (If that is what is going on). Given Roma's straight forward reputation this is a deal that could be done in 2-3 days from here, so how much that we take some air outof red sails on monday lunch-time?

Nope, just benchmarks for conversations.
