Nigel De Jong

[Tarnats left peg]

Will everyone still be gutted if we get DDR?

yes. because he's not nigel

Will everyone still be gutted if we get DDR?

A bit. But I can't see it. We seem more concerned with selling this window. Something has gone on behind the scenes. Perhaps UEFA has warned us again re FFP.

Rent Boys and PSG don't appear to have listened though.

 

[Lomas has a lob on]

Gutted if DeJong goes, and if its for as low a fee as being mentioned, then it's just an awful piece of business all round.
We must have a ready made, top quality, and I mean top quality, player lined up to replace him.Thats all I can think of.

 

[Mike D]

Sinclair in the last year of his contract and he leaves for 6-8 Million !

And he is a pile of shite.

It just shows us up for the big mugs we have become giving Nige away for 3.5mil is a joke, Marwood should be fired on the spot for this piece of business alone. Yet again we are a laughing stock in the transfer market, through Marwood.

I agree mate, no way we would weaken like this unless someone is coming in!

A host of these articles have come out...... Does anyone know more? In contrast to 99.99999999999999999999999999999999999999% of news headlines, these seem pretty damn conclusive..

Also Sky Sports News have declared seconds ago that De Jong is on his way

Now if all this is true I hope this is positive news in effectively declaring our intention and our confidence in either...

i) Nailing De Rossi
ii) Bringing in some other worldclass replacement (M'Vila, Tiote, whoever it might be)

What do others think?

 

[Benarbia]

Absolutely scandalous can't believe it till I see it. The club have gone backwards this summer and they don't seem to give a shit

 

[riley347]

i am officially crushed.....

 

[Blue Elmo]

Gutted if Nige leaves. Top midfield player. I could accept him leaving for a decent fee, but 3 million ? Milan will be pissing themselves at that

 

[Shooter 83]

Anyone who thinks we'd let NDJ go for 3.5 mill needs there head testing. Stop reading some rag tweeting winding you up. The offer is around 8-9M.

 

[Ducado]

Absolutely scandalous can't believe it till I see it. The club have gone backwards this summer and they don't seem to give a shit

Your like the grim reaper, you seem to follow bad news!

Calm down and wait and see if they have a replacement before you throw a hissy fit, strange things are stirring

 

[california blue]

anyone who believes anything that comes out of milan's side of the news is an idiot. remember we've signed tevez?

I thought we would be selling Savic and RSC not Johnson and NDJ

Well we must have been playing "double fookin jeopardy" after that draw

 

[farelli]

Im gutted NDJ might be going; IMO he is the best holding midfielder in the world. Id have him over Barry and Rodwell!

I'm praying Duc because it just seems to have been bad news all summer. I'm trying to keep the faith

 

[St Helens Blue (Exiled)]

He's on the plane to Milan as we speak

 

[kunaguero10]

last year of contract:

rvp: 20m

nasri: 20m

sinclair: 6m

walcott: arsenal demand 15m

ndj: 3.5m




absolutely furious at this, if we replace de jong with rodwell we have taken an almighty step backwards

 

[riley347]

we are aware ,.....

 

[Bald fraud]

Can't believe this, I'm praying we've got a top notch replacement sewn up!
