Theo Walcott's agent

[Cunny]

We paid £5m for cheyrou

[Swan Red]

which is of what relevance?

 

we paid 10+ for Diouf

[fyds]

We paid £5m for cheyrou

And at that time, it looked like a bargain - anyway, different times, different manager, change in policy and ethos.

[Gerry]

We paid £5m for cheyrou

 

£3.5M.

[Spion kop]

we paid 10+ for Diouf

 

stop it you're making me cry!

[Guest Red Mist]

We are never going to sign him. If he ends up coming to Liverpool I'd dedicate an entire thread to why I love ManUre.

[Montse]

Just wait til Rafa gets Crouchy to call his old team mate to tell him what a fab place LFC is!

[R A Softlad]

With the notable exception of southampton players...

 

£3m down and the rest based on appearances for Chrouchy I believe.

[Maldini]

Are you serious ?

 

Kewell for £5m looked like a bargain

Babbel on a free looked like a bargain

 

Cheyrou had done feck all but score a goal against the Mancs and has done feck all since then...other than pick up a ridiculous wage every week.

He scored 13 goals in 26 games from midfield the season before we signed him

[fyds]

Is the right answer - when I told a couple of mates at the time, one a Manu supporter, the other a Gooner, the reply was the same 'F*** and you only paid what?'

 

Revisionism is easy.

[stressederic]

He was supposed to be our Freddie Ljunberg, and I was pretty chuffed when I heard we were signing him.

 

The folly of youth.

[Earl Hafler]

He scored 13 goals in 26 games from midfield the season before we signed him

 

And yet he still didn't play very well.

[anny road]

walcott wasnt at Soton training session today

 

things are moving, and probably in the direction of Highbury

[Eskimo]

All this will he won't he feck it who want's to call his agent, I have his mobile number...

[Earl Hafler]

Is that your Mr T impression ?

[fyds]

And yet he still didn't play very well.

No, but that's hindsight isn't it?

[Kahnee]

fool.

 

Given your recent performances in the general, I'd be careful how you bandy that word around

[Earl Hafler]

No, but that's hindsight isn't it?

 

I meant in France. Whenever i watched him he didn't impress me...might have just been one of those things.

I was back and forth to France a lot at that time - he certainly impressed me. Just didn't work for him here except in a handful of games.

If the lad can hold out and sign for his favourite club

 

I don't see why he would. It's not just about holding out for his 'favourite club', it's about getting a decent fee for Southampton who presumably he is leaving on good terms with too. If we won't match Arsenal's then there I can't blame him too much for going there.
