MikeO Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 This always makes me laugh... "Tottenham can now offer any new signing Champions League football...." Can they f'ck. They can offer a qualifier, same as we had in 2005. Dodgy draw, bit of bad luck and it's gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 If Pienaar wants to go then we shouldn't keep him, you'd have thought Moyes would have learnt his listen after being burnt with Lescott. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Regulator Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 If Pienaar wants to go then we shouldn't keep him, you'd have thought Moyes would have learnt his listen after being burnt with Lescott. I don't see how he got burnt? We got £24 million for one player, with which we bought 3, and if lescott had been injured with us we would have been in even more trouble with injuries than we originally were...

You forget our start to the season? It wasn't all about injuries, we coped just fine with them at the end of the previous season before Lescott decided to stick his head up his own arse.

The Regulator Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 (edited) You forget our start to the season? It wasn't all about injuries, we coped just fine with them at the end of the previous season before Lescott decided to stick his head up his own arse. i don't think that justifies tarring peinaar with the same brush though does it? He didn't cop out at the end of the season, he played brilliantly up until the end. Granted he now wants more but he's in his late 20's and he can't play in europe this year, he was openly disappointed in that as i'm sure the whole squad were, and he's at a point in his career when he feels he should be reaching those heights. we can't guaruntee him Champions league or even europa league at this stage so he has a right to be anxious, but it doesn't mean he's a money grubbing whore like Lescott, he just wants to play at the highest level when he's in the best form of his career. I don't blame him for that one bit. Hopefully though, he'll realise if he stays we have a real shot at the champions league and he'll re sign. If not, Moyes will take the 15 mil and get Elia or someone like this for cheaper, in fact he'll probably get 2 players. So no big loss.

I was saying that Moyes shouldn't keep a player if he wants to go if it's going to negatively impact on the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the same as lescott who was already on a long term contract, pienaar will either go or he'll stay. there's no inbetween, no shit performances...

duncanmckenzieismagic Posted July 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Former Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez will launch joint bids to bring Anfield forward Dirk Kuyt and Everton midfielder Steven Pienaar to Inter Milan.

dmac Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 They will offer an improved deal but they are only bidding 5 mil, is beneathus a fucking nut job? There is no way we'll accept that little Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 To be fair if he's not going to sign with us and this report is accurate I'd have to say it's a very good deal. What harm can he do us at Inter (next season anyway!)? Pienaar to Inter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilpyrokid951 Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 if they really are interested and would match the £15m asking price then i'd sell him to inter now. it would be much better than having him leaving for free in january and as previously mentioned he would do any harm to us playing in italy. plus we could easily reinvest the money in someone like donovan or ben arfa, as well as have some left over to get a young defender.

DonKey Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 I could honestly live with him going to Inter especially for that money. At least we wouldn't see him popping up with a last minute winner for city. In all honesty we'd probably not play against him for a wee while.... at least until the 2012 Champions League final (or something along those lines).

nesta2003 Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 If this report is true & Peanuts doesn't want to play for us anymore I would bite Inters hand off for the £15m! Would like it to be sorted either way asap though so we could get any business done before the deadline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 got to say, that does sound tempting. Who could we get for say 10mill to replace him though (theres no way we would get all 15)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And who the hell paid that much money for Dozy? villareal! at one point he was rumored to be on his way to real madrid though. he didn't really get much playing time at villareal and even when he went on loan for the second half of his first season he didn't play a single game. he always seems to play better with the national team, probably something about familiar surroundings.
