The Unsullied 0 Posted January 6, 2017 Can see West Ham and snoddy being a very good fit he has rejected a new contract so having only a year left he will go relatively cheaply Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duncan Edwards 2,231 Posted January 6, 2017 Yeah but West Ham will know that Hull have an asking price, why not just offer that and get their man?It''s embarrassing for them to be putting in these derisory offers. Hammers a joke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lessingham Canary 99 Posted January 6, 2017 They play a real game with their fans, been doing the same with Defoe, why not go in with a sensible offer and at least get discussions going rather than insult the club that doesn''t really want to sell anyway?

norfolkngood 1,086 Posted January 6, 2017 bid low unsettle the player he then might force the club to sell cheaper by saying he wants to go no club like a player / agent being a pain but i do agree if hull wanted say 5 Mill as last year on contract they should just pay as he would still be cheap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yellowbeagle 0 Posted January 6, 2017 Unsettling Hull and Sunderlands stand out players, maybe a plan formulating here, whats the betting they put in a bid for Swansea''s Sigurdsson next? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Move Klose 303 Posted January 6, 2017 Didn''t we sell him for £8m when he had 12 months remaining on his contract & I would say his stock his higher now. Heard a rumour the other day about Newcastle wanting him, probably be better going there. Big club, prem football next year, good manager, higher wages.

AJ 1,218 Posted January 7, 2017 Let''s be honest, it might be 3 million up front but it certainly wouldn''t be 3 million in total. Mind you, after tonight''s performance they probably need to buy a new XI... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lappinitup 629 Posted January 7, 2017 Why would they even want him? If they read this they would withdraw their offer...........[quote user="lake district canary"]The more I found out about him, the less I wanted him at the club. He did really well at first for Leeds, which was when we were first in for him, but the more he was allowed to dominate, the worse Leeds got. He was made captain - and he continued to do well but their team did not. In the first season at Norwich he did well, but as soon as Holty left, he stepped up and dominated, even though he wasn''t captain - and things went sour - the penalty, the spat with the fans, the holding on to the ball way too long, falling over etc etc. He is a player that likes to dominate - that much should surely be obvious to everyone - but at a lesser club where he can become the main man, then that is not a good thing for that club - imo. Hull may be different, but just look at the goal scorers there. He is the only forward player scoring a meaningful amount of goals there - and they are not scoring anywhere near enough goals. Is that co-incidence - Leeds, Norwich, Hull. At a top club, he may not be in that position and can just fit in like he did the first season at Norwich, without being allowed dominate, but even for Scotland he has come out in public and put himself up to be captain for them. How many players do that?? Imo, he needs to be managed in a way that gets the best out of him AND the team. Hughton couldn''t do it. Phelan doesn''t seem to be able to get his team to do it, because Snodgrass is doing well, but his team aren''t. We''ve been there.[/quote]£3m? Bite their hans off Hull.
