Andriy Shevchenko is waiting for us

[Guest TanMan]

He says he would only want to move to England to improve his English, money isn't an issue. I don't think he feels Chelsea is a challenge. He knows they are expected to win the league and he must've seen how they treat their stars.

 

I reckon he'd prefer to move to us, I reckon we could offer him £100k in wages and that he'd be happy enough with that. I also reckon that Milan would much rather do business with us than with Chelsea.

 

I really think that behind the scenes we're plotting something huge and I hope that my hunch is right.

Mad and daft!

I also hope that your hunch is right.

 

Also hope that he remembers how brilliant we (the supporters) are.....and that he remembers half time on 25th May - We were dead and buried but our supporters were sensational. Surely he'd love to play for a club like ours!

It would be nice to think that he'd turn down a wad of cash to come to a club who are going places not because of throwing money at a situation but because of a good manager who buys shrewdly.

 

However I think he'll go for the wad of cash and then bulls*** the media and the fans with 'footballing reasons' b******s.

 

Fair enough if he does, he'll be finishing second next season though.

what about the £50 million transfer fee?

Mere triviality

 

Joking aside, I reckon we could be ready to offer one of our stars plus cash. Something like that could persuade them.

Would certainly be a challenge improving his english talking to carra, thats for sure.

we cant afford his transfer fee. he is only allowed to to talk to clubs who have an acceptable bid. he has two years left on his contract (i think) consequently milan dont have to sell

[steviegw]

Doesn't he only have one year left on his contract???

He is also 29 years old....also if he really wants to leave, don't think that there is too much that Milan can do, so unless he joins he the chavs I don't think his transfer fee would be anywhere as much as we may think.

His contract runs until 2009.

[billybunter]

Yup. im convinced....

 

...but the whole Russian link may prove influential

[DaveLFC]

IF we had 50 million think we would be crazy to spend that kind of cash on him, CRAZY! Knowing our luck he would get an injury and be out for most of the season.

 

There are other targets that would improve the squad IF we had that kind of cash.

 

(I read his contract runs out in 2009)

[Guest The Mole]

You've convinced me he's on his way. Will he be backup for Crouch or Fowler ?

[nrkintheuk]

Wasn't there something about Rushie being his hero when he was a kid too. I think he played in a tournament over here and won player of a tournament and he got Rush's shirt. I may have dreamt that though.

 

Plus, its never gonna happen

[Guest TanMan]

It's nice to dream

hes tied up till 2009.. it still doesnt beat the Zidane has bought a house in Southport rumour though..

[liverbird04]

players like him only move to london,centre of the universe .

Que? You don't believe they will get more money out of Chelsea than us? Elaborate.

[Guest Kev]

Offer them Traore and then would leave only £5m for us to find

[Fagan]

as long as he doesnt want to take the penalties

[Albertini]

Isn't there some new FIFA rule about transfer fees for players over 28 though?

 

Seem to recall it being trotted it out about Terry Henry a couple of weeks ago.

 

It works out something like you can't get more than £10 million for a player aged 28 or over?

 

Could be b****x but i thought i read it in the Times.

definately not true as far as i know.

 

im just waiting for a player to take his case to the european court claiming his club are demanding an extortionate transfer fee which his hindering his free movement of labour. but then again players get a slive of the fee so it probably will never happen.

 

bosman mark II would be superb

[Guest TanMan]

Course they'd get more money out of Chelsea than us, but they'd see him going to Chelsea as much more harmful as far as European dominance goes. Chelsea haven't done it in Europe yet but with Sheva they almost certainly will.

 

Whereas if they sold him to us

No chance, we'd of had as good a chance as anyone before Abramovich come along but not now. They can just double any transfer fee and wages we could offer. Not overly bothered anyway as splashing an absolute s***load on a 29 year old wouldnt be to clever.

He's a red and his hero was Rushie
