Kewell for Man City?

[Spiblish]

Harry on his way for free?!?!

[Sion]

On a free! FREE! I would sell him, but only at a decent price, but on a FREE! why would we do that!

[jfogarty]

Would save us more than £6m over the next 2 years

[Stew F]

Christ.. If thats true were pushing being honorable into the realms of stupidity.

Yes we got God back on a free - but ffs!!

[tomski]

Yes, but some of that will go on paying gonzo.

 

How long has kewell got on his contract?

[Gomez]

Excellent, another "we're selling Kewell thread"

[Guest Scot James]

If it's true City will have paid off the remainder of his contract. Not a bad deal in that case, as any fee we got for Harry would have gone to paying off the rest of his contract anyway, and we get to free up a huge chunk of the wage bill.

Is this the same Harry Kewell that just had his best season for us ? For free ?

 

Lets just leave the left wing to two players who have never payed in English football before. One of whom is currently injured and the other who hasn't exactly set the world on fire in his pre-season games.

[Guest Scot James]

If we've got no money sacrifices have to be made. We're pretty well covered down the left, with Zenden, Riise and Warnock all able to play left mid too. If it meant we could get Kuyt, then I would have to say go for it.

Tell them to feck off

[Gravy]

This would be ludicous in the absolute extreme. Surely not even Parry would give him away. Would he???

 

We need Kewell. He looked real good last season.

makes no sense tho, we're after quality. We've been down the route before, of being 'well set' but not having the quality. Riise is a left back and decent cover for midfield. Warnock is no more than cover. So we aren't 'well set' there if Kewell goes.

 

Zenden is probably gonna play more centrally.

 

Whats the point of us strengthening the squad (Gonzalez and Aurelio), only then to weaken it again by getting rid of good players.

FFS man.

 

I cannot believe you've mentioned Parry.

[Frosty Jack]

said the same thing when Berger went though.

[Sion]

Can an article starting with 'Rumours are doing the rounds' be taken seriously?

[Guest Scot James]

I agree with you...but, I'm just saying if there's a position where we can afford to let a player go which will free up a huge chunk of the wage bill and allow Rafa to get Kuyt, then it's the left side. And Harry is the one on mega wages. It's a risk, but Rafa might feel it's one he can afford to take with so many options.

 

It's probably nonsense anyway.

Not to mention the last 2 sentences

 

Whether he would be prepared to take a big drop in wages is another matter. That added with his continual injury problems may indeed make this a non-starter.

It's a dodgy rumour from a dodgy site, I doubt there's any need to panic

What about a reason to have a go at Rick Parry?

[downunder]

Amazing what a difference a year makes, not many would have been panicing if we wre getting rid of him last summer would they?

[McBain]

We need a reason now?

 

When did the rules change

[Buttles]

Apparently they need a left sided player but don't want to pay more than £25,000 per week

[Elisha_Scott]

We're pretty well covered down the left, with Zenden, Riise and Warnock all able to play left mid too.

 

 

And you think them 3 players are good enough for left midfield for us? Get real mate.

[Gravy]

FFS man.

Parry. There you go.

[Guest Scot]

I'll say it again: won't be at all surprised if we shift him

 

He is 25 this year. Not a kid anymore.

Carra wasn't appreciated by some fans til he was 26, big difference.

 

Bit of both to be honest, partly because he wasn't used right. As a centre-half he was always good, but he wasn't played too often at centre-back.
