150k!? Greedy bastard.
I don't want an attitude like that in our club.

My feeling with Pulis and midfielders is that he looks for players made in his own image to a certain extent. Tough tackling, energetic and committed. As RAF says, these qualities and a modicum of skill aren't mutually exclusive (actually Raf didn't say that but you get my drift!) but TP's blind spot is something that is a failing and one he has never addressed.

We definately need to up our wage bands if we're going to progress but I was thinking maybe an extra 10K a week... How long do these negotiations go on for before they get to the point of.. we'll pay you 60K a week.... Well I want 150K... oh ok.... well thanks for your time then....
I'm sure people flex but if that really is his expectation... there is no way we'll come close

150 bloody hell does he think we're Man City. More to the point who the hell does he think he is? He's hardly set the world on fire has he? I'd like to see him at Stoke - but he's taking the piss if he thinks he's worth that.

Where is this actual quote has anyone got a link.

Been having a conversation with someone who works at Stoke, they have told me that crouch won't be signing, but Palacios deal is still on! Also, there won't be any signings this week because the management and team are all in switzerland! I dont believe you because you said Palacios would definitely sign last tues or weds. You also said you saw scott parkers agent at the training ground. Jog on.

Mirror reported today that Parker has turned us down
if (If) true this would indicate that we have at least spoken to his agent & therefore may be deemed to validate jacko593 assertion that he saw Parker'S agent. This in turn may give more credence to his original post on this thread.
In other words jeezes h christ lets not slaughter every rumour & poster that comes on eh? by all means treat with pinch of salt but at least consider the possibility that they may be posting honestly.

Crouch, Parker, Barton, Bendtner will NOT sign for Stoke.
Palacios, SWP very doubtful.

The thing is that people seem to make posts like these and then moan that we don't sign players like Reo-Coker, who fits that description perfectly. There's no point signing players who are not significantly better than what we already have, the team needs a player who is tough tackling, energetic and committed, but who also has good passing ability, problem is it's an expensive position to fill.

I shant be placing any bets against your prediction tbh
Would expect all those players to leave their current clubs though probably.

At this rate I wouldnt mind us going for Owen Hargreaves, hes only just more injury prone than Woody and we are desperate for something in the middle.
Tin hat on but if he could stay fit then I couldnt think of a more Pulis-esque type of midfielder.

Post by l on Aug 18, 2011 12:14:55 GMT
We must have the best medical team in the world, if they gave me the nod then i'd certainly give Hargreaves a chance. I think that Woodgate may have doubled his appearances compared to the last two seasons hasn't he?

They seem fairly certain, no doubt 'arry n Tony have sorted something out re: signing on fees, leaving fees etc.
