Canaries Utd 0 Posted January 31, 2011 Fu*k me, I hope Torres passes his medical or they will be up the swany with a large debt over their heads!!No not Norwich related, but glad to see someone going for it, even if the sums of money involved are ridiculous.

Bill 1,788 Posted January 31, 2011 yes, having your top striker leaving your club because he thinks he can do better elsewhere is ''certainly going for it'' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WeAreYellows49 0 Posted January 31, 2011 Hope Torres leaves, the fans have turned and I can''t say that I blame them, it would be no different to when we had players wanting to leave. Luis Suarez is a very good signing and IMO better than Torres who is far too injury prone these days.Good luck to Torres, but I wonder whose nose he will put out of joint first, who will they drop to slot Torres in lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can remember us doing this selling Ashton at last minute, signing Earnshaw in a panic for twice his real value. Is Carroll really worth more than 6 or 7 million? he aint as good IMO as Adam from Blackpool. Gerrard will be gone in the summer to. Your post is a bit of a slating of McNally and Lambert in accusing them of not going for it as they have been given enough cash to sign players, just maybe Lambert does not consider other available players to be better than what we already have.

Bill 1,788 Posted January 31, 2011 You forget Mr L I King that "going for it" is the new "putting in a good shift"It hasn''t any real meaning other than to try and give the impression that the user has some idea about the game.It used to be ''he''s a confidence player" and "he''s good at running the channels", but they are soooo 2010.

GJP 79 Posted January 31, 2011 [quote user="dejanstenfanovic"]Comolli isn''t so great anyway, dont get me wrong the likes of Bale eventually proved to a good one. But heres a list of player he signed for Spurs, players over £1m, how many of these turned into great signings for Spurs and how many were expensive flops ? 1. Vedran Corluka, Manchester City, £8.5m 2. Roman Pavlyuchenko, Spartak Moscow, £14m 3. Cesar Sanchez, Real Zaragoza, Undisclosed 4. David Bentley, Blackburn Rovers, £15m-17m 5. Heurelho Gomes, PSV Eindhoven, £9m 6. Giovani dos Santos, Barcelona, £4.7m 7. Luka Modric, Dinamo Zagreb, £15.8m 8. Gilberto, Hertha Berlin £1.9m 9. Alan Hutton, Glasgow Rangers, £8m 10. Jonathan Woodgate, Middlesbrough, £7.5m 11. Chris Gunter, Cardiff City, £2m 12. Kevin-Prince Boateng, Hertha Berlin, £5.2m 13. Danny Rose, Leeds United, Undisclosed 14. Younes Kaboul, Auxerre, £8.2m 15. Darren Bent, Charlton Athletic, £16.5m 16. Adel Taarabt, RC Lens, Undisclosed 17. Gareth Bale, Southampton, £5m – £10m 18. Ben Alnwick, Sunderland, Undisclosed 19. Ricardo Rocha, Benfica, £3,5m 20. Mido, AS Roma, £4m 21. Pascal Chimbonda, Wigan Athletic, £4m 22. Steed Malbranque, Fulham, £3.5m 23. Didier Zokora, St Etienne, £6.5m 24. Benoit Assou-Ekotto, RC Lens, £3.5m 25. Dimitar Berbatov, Bayer Leverkusen, £10.9m 26. Hossam Ghaly, Feyernoord, Undisclosed 27. Danny Murphy, Charlton, £2m[/quote] Yeah but you rarely find anyone who doesn''t make a few signings that don''t work out (and of course Spurs have changed manager a couple of times in recent seasons which doesn''t help). The argument is that Comolli does make some very good signings. A number of those players are currently in the Spurs first team - the Spurs team that has got into the Champions League. They made a huge profit on Berbatov and the suggestion is that they''d also make a huge profit on Modric too if they were to sell him and obviously Gareth Bale is going to command a ridiculous transfer fee. I believe Comolli is also heavily credited with bringing Thierry Henry to Arsenal (and possibly Kolo Toure too). He hasn''t had the jobs he''s had in football because he doesn''t know what he''s doing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rudolph Hucker 0 Posted January 31, 2011 From Reuters: ''In a dramatic late development Norwich City have re-signed former defensive stalwart and former player of the year Gary Doherty in a bid to address their goalscoring problems. The former Spurs and Republic of Ireland player had previous spells up front in his White Hart lane days and was originally signed for Norwich by then manager Nigel Worthington as a striker for their last Premier League season. Paul Lambert, asked to comment on the signing said: ''I thought he was excellent, honestly I did'' and ''The Doc'' looks odds on to start tomorrow nights home game against Millwall for the high flying Canaries.''
