Just wondering on this?
Obv it goes without saying that players see the likes of man u, arsenal and the like with that prestige
But money aside, how do players look at us when weighing up options?
Take Palace coming in for Berahinho - I would have thought we were as attractive as the Eagles?
We can offer possibility of cup trophies if not league titles, not sure admittedly on European football plus a decent standard of life in Cheshire for example
Would think with Joe Allen, Swansea's pull is surely only down to the home town
And we shouldn't really be playing second fiddle to bloody Leicester for another season |

Palace will pay more money and its a London club.
Berahino appears to just want the most money he can get.
Allen will always put Swansea before us although Hughes may have some pull.
Money talks with footballers.

Does anyone know if Berahinho has family?
That sometimes plays a part if they don't want to uproot wife & kids etc - Neither Allen nor him would have to look at that scenario
Youre right on the London pull though if he's a single man; At least London can offer nightlife - what the fuck does round here offer a randy young man with 1000s in his arse pocket

Money talks with footballers. How can you say that about Berahino ?.....he's never spoken to anybody and nothing has come out to back up your point |

Money talks with footballers. I think berahino will see that we've chased him for a while and a primary target. Palace is just their bottom lip has gone because they're still being pissed around for benteke. |

Us, swansea, palace. All in the same boat really i suppose. With the rose tinted shades off if i was a player being offered to these clubs there ain't one that jumps out is there. Some decent players in the ranks of all 3. Similar size. All about the money with the odd exception. I personally think we should just blow palace out the water here with berahino. There aint many players around for that kind of cash who could make the big impact on our success/league position.

Money talks,if anyone offers any player £10,000 per week more than another club but he may not play he will still sign for the club who pays more.It's called being a human,not a football player and not even a greedy twat.Believe me i have worked for my company for 20 years but if i could get more money somewhere else..i'm off.It really is that simple.

Are we smaller than Leicester now? I hate the thought of that; granted they can offer champions league football (wont be long though until they get eliminated)
Ok they won the league last year but its not gonna happen again

If a club offers a player 150K a week against 75K a week to sit on the bench - well that might happen but I don't think 10k would sway them that much
Not if they have at least some integrity and I still think most players do

Loads go to sit on the bench for the extra money. Bego?? Not knocking him for going but he went as backup. |

Mate you really believe "integrity" is part of a players thinking....sadly we no longer have the likes of Denis Smith playing football.Opinions though,we are all allowed one. |

Pulis isn't going to want to do us any favours, despite all that amicable breakup bollox
He'd look a proper Charlie wouldnt he, if SB came here, scored 15 goals while Albion went down
Been looking at Berahinho's record
Senior career
2010–
West Bromwich Albion 100 apps 23 goals
2011–2012
→ Northampton Town (loan)14 apps 6 goals
2012
→ Brentford (loan) 8 apps 4 goals
2012
→ Peterborough United (loan) 10 apps 2 goals
Total 132 apps 35 goals
He may slightly improve us but he's hardly troubling the likes of Shearer & Cole either

Yes it is my opinion and im probably not the only person who thinks it so whats your problem. There is no need to be like that. You are another person who cant stand anybody having a different opinion to yours. Learn to deal with it
