kingfox Posted 24 June 2015 Posted 24 June 2015 Not gonna happen unless Huth ties him up & gets him to sign.
dbtcity Posted 24 June 2015 Posted 24 June 2015 Ofcource you are untitled to your own opinion, however the only reason we Havnt spent any money in 4 windows is we have had to get rid of the rubbish/overpriced players pulis bought (palacious Shea ect). That hasn't ment we Havnt brought it quality ( bojan, douif ect). This summer will be a different story with coats promising Hughes money to spend exqmpled by our pursuit of konopilanka. Why you think any team are content in not improving is beyond meObviously every club wants to improve but like has been said it takes massive investment to improve on where you are and have been for years, you shouldn't take it as an insult as I would love to see my club in your situation in a few years, I was just pointing out that the only chance we'd have of landing a player like nzonzi would be if he bought into our chairmans plans
Rich Fox Posted 24 June 2015 Posted 24 June 2015 Smokescreen as others have said but people thinking Stoke are some big club because they have had a few decent years in the prem must realise they will find there level in time like Bolton and Blackburn have now. Bet the same people were saying what a big club Blackburn were a few years back
Guest Posted 24 June 2015 Posted 24 June 2015 Who gives a toss whether a club is bigger or not? Currently their team is better than ours. N'Zonzi wants to move to a better team than Stoke. He won't be coming here. Let's move on. And if he came here we'd probably be better than them.
Alex_LCFC Posted 24 June 2015 Posted 24 June 2015 Huth seems a really popular member with the Stoke players. With abut of luck nzonzi may want to follow him

Leicester being my second team I want all the best for them , but I think a few fans on this board are jumping the gun and where they expect to finish in 1-2 years. It's taken the likes of stoke, Swansea years to crack and establish themselves as top 10 Prem teams , so of the fans need to remember that . Indeed the money is huge is cracking top 10,spending 80 mill last year is the only reason Southampton have done it in a relatively short period. Spending 100 mill over the space of 3 years could do it for newly promoted teams , but it won't be straight away

sphericalfox Posted 24 June 2015 Posted 24 June 2015 Quality player. Most exciting transfer in a long time IF this one comes off. right after Cambiasso...amirite?
Carlos88LCFC Posted 24 June 2015 Posted 24 June 2015 And if he came here we'd probably be better than them. Very good shout. Some people are underestimating our owners intentions. This 'my club is bigger than your club' is playground talk that is irrelevant given the stature of both of our clubs last & this coming season. They finished higher up the table, but we finished the season in champions league form. I think for him to come here would be a sideward step, nothing more, nothing less. Though, we are an exciting club to be at right now I believe. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
sphericalfox Posted 24 June 2015 Posted 24 June 2015 Now if Robert can put a good word in we scupper the good boat Stokie.
sdb Posted 24 June 2015 Posted 24 June 2015 as has been said: a) no chance b) probably done to aid both clubs in getting their preferred players/prices absolute class act though
iamafox Posted 24 June 2015 Posted 24 June 2015 I can understand Stoke not wanting to sell one of their prized assets to another PL club and whilst going to Sevilla as reported may seem to be a more logical choice, will he be a regular starter for them? Is he good enough to play CL football? Will he want to settle for warming their bench?
ALC Fox Posted 24 June 2015 Posted 24 June 2015 If Sevilla are serious and match our 'offer' (or the price quoted), then I'd guess he'd be on his way there. If they're reluctant to pay that sort of money, you never know what might happen. One thing's for sure if we do get him, I'll be putting a tenner on Mark Hughes quitting before the start of the season.

johnny the fox Posted 24 June 2015 Posted 24 June 2015 Stoke on trent is a shight heap............how could he resist the rolling hills of braunstone compared with that? no brainer..

Collymore Posted 24 June 2015 Posted 24 June 2015 What's the connection between Cambiasso, Hartlepool Utd and Stoke City ....? I'll give you half an hour and give you the answer if no one's got it.

Big_Nige Posted 24 June 2015 Posted 24 June 2015 Clever from Nigel. Shows intent. If we get him fantastic. I thought he was dominant home and away against us. A complete midfielder and one of the most underrated in the prem. However we have no chance. Like it or not it's a backwards move, the guys wants European football. He might as well stay at Stoke then come here. Reading between the lines it's a favour for Hughes to set a price for Sevilla or whoever to match ,and give us dibs on Huth.

This, which is a shame.A real quality player that really would show how serious we are!!

If he doesn't get the move he wants his second option will be to run his contract down. Perhaps we can get him on a free next season and offer him Champions League football?
