Show Me What You Gooot! 0 Posted July 1, 2008 I''ll have him, but not for £3.5mill, unless of course its based on promotion and other factors (if he gets us promoted who cares then?).I wouldn''t outlay £3.5mill straight out though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indy_Bones 444 Posted July 1, 2008 Personally I''d like to see Ameobi here, however the price tag does seem a tad high, especially if he performs like this:[url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJG3boMpY_M[/url]If on the other hand he plays like he can do he''d be worth the cash:[url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXPRAsF8NRk[/url]Let''s see what today brings :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don''t want fame and publicity. If there''s to be some sort of deal I''d like it to be on friendly terms."Share Print Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
