Would have been better keeping van persie. Kind of transfer activity we used to do, 1 step forward 2 steps back.

Agent Van Gall at work. shhh

The rags have always overpaid, it's their way of stopping the smaller clubs from being able to compete.

Rags wont be alone next year. Then Stoke City Comes with 100€Million offers

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

What did the losing team in this auction bid?

Rather appropriately this would be a Dutch auction. This is where the bidding starts very high and comes down until the first person bids. It's usually set unrealistically high at the start. Obviously the bidding started at £36M and someone at Utd raised their paddle straightaway. Which is a pity as that would have come in very handy as they increasingly find themselves up shit creek!

Just waiting for turtle to get Hung out to dry for this.

What position does he play?

 

[ManCitizens.]

Where's everyone getting 50m+ from Smy and everywhere I've seen it's 36m still an awful lot haha.

Aguero 38

Martial 36

Haha

£36m rising to £58m apparently.

 

[Bozzie]

Will he even get a starting place when Neymar and Bale sign?

It'll be a long time before Stoke do that.

 

[Oleole123]

not really. They will get 160Million € TV Money next year.

 

[Rammyblues]

They would have been better buying Crouch would suit their hoofball more. :-)

He just reminds me of the old Carry On Cowboy film and the Jim Dale character Marshall Marshall ...

Jim Dale's character was Marshall P. Nut.
