Heard too that they turned down 750K but that's what the arcticle also says so there could be something in it.

I heard that too. On another note, I love reading aloud to myself!

I read that article, then heard it. Then read the article again to confirm what I'd heard.

Seen who wrote the article...
Marc Stein.
Can't do with pretentious prats who alter the way they spell their name to look cool.
Had a pal called Andy, but he wrote it Andi....Prat....

I wouldn't bother paying over 750k to get someone here four months earlier. Is he really worth the 40 odd thousand (on top of his wages) per week that we'd be paying to make this happen?

The problem isn't that the MLS won't accept our offer, it is his club who are digging their heels in. This is because, under the rather odd way (to our eyes) that they arrange things in the MLS, his club only get a small proportion of any fee - and that proportion is not big enough to compensate them for losing one of their most important players in their campaign for a playoff place. In the MLS the player's registration is held by the MLS and not his club, and so the MLS get the lion's share of any fees paid for a player. |

I suppose that's a fair analysis....but technically no one really cares how the MLS turns out so they should just let us have him early!  |

If Stoke paid for Agudelo to come now, then the money spent could be offset by releasing (selling) other players with the certainty that we'd got our replacement already here and available now.

If him being here early means we finish 1 place higher in the league at the end of the season then it would probably be worth the money. If not don't bother. I guess it depends how high in Hughes' plans he would be.

I guess it depends how high in Hughes' plans he would be. If it's true we're prepared to pay 750k for him now instead of waiting until January I think that's a pretty clear indication that he'd be part of the first team plans. |

I hope we are not pinning all of our attacking hopes on this lad , I'm sure like Shea he has great potential but I expect that will take a year or two , the gap between these leagues is huge

It was only one game but in that game he was anything but lazy, I was expecting him to be lazy but the work he put in impressed me. But it was only one game. |
