Chazwaz Posted 28 June 2011 Posted 28 June 2011 This would defo be signing of the year! I seriously have my doubts that Sven would pay this much for him though... How rich are our owners?
accessory Posted 28 June 2011 Posted 28 June 2011 He scored against us at the Walkers last year And he's the captain of one of the two play-off finalists. In fact, he scored in that game too And he's been one of the outstanding Championship centrebacks of the past two seasons You've had a 'mare there Indeed. It ranks alongside his words of wisdom on Kermorgant..
LeeTheFox Posted 28 June 2011 Posted 28 June 2011 I suppose 4 million is alot but if we get a team capable of promotion we will surely make alot of profit when we go up, go for it sven!
ScouseFox Posted 28 June 2011 Posted 28 June 2011 I'd be pretty happy if we just signed a centre half, but Mills is probably the best outside the Premier League, i'd be right pleased if we snapped him up. As for the money, if we've got it, spend it.
accessory Posted 28 June 2011 Posted 28 June 2011 The more money we spend, the bigger the pressure on us. I wouldn't want us to end up with a Newcastle or Man City syndrome..
Callabinho Posted 28 June 2011 Author Posted 28 June 2011 Personally from what I have seen he is probably worth £3.5 to £4..
Bellend Sebastian Posted 28 June 2011 Posted 28 June 2011 It's OK acooling08, I don't know who he is either. The only football I watch now is at The Walkers and I pay very little attention even then. And that's why I lost my job as chief scout
ScouseFox Posted 28 June 2011 Posted 28 June 2011 The more money we spend, the bigger the pressure on us. I wouldn't want us to end up with a Newcastle or Man City syndrome.. What syndrome is that? Promoted syndrome? I'd take that.
BrummieFOX Posted 28 June 2011 Posted 28 June 2011 Wow am I the only person on here who has never heard of him? Doesn't suprise me at all that you haven't heard of him. Don't think I've ever agreed with any of your posts. You can't expect to have an educated view on how well our team will do if you have no idea about any other team, let alone the best players in the league.
Itsthejoeker Posted 28 June 2011 Posted 28 June 2011 What syndrome is that? Promoted syndrome? I'd take that. No, it's third place PL finish syndrome.
One Arm Babba Posted 28 June 2011 Posted 28 June 2011 A good player no doubt, but, I don't see us spending £4,000,000 on a CB. And if his contract is up next summer is he really worth that price?

Cockney Fox Posted 28 June 2011 Posted 28 June 2011 So Matt Mills, captain and centre back at Reading, is the latest name to be linked with the Foxes. http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11095_7009065,00.html Of course this would be a great signing, but with him valued at £4m and Wolves already having two offers rejected, I can't see us pulling this off. Very happy with the types of players we're showing interest in though.

I think people are forgetting that we are not just buying players to just get out of the CCC, but for Sven to build the core of a team that just hack it in the Prem. Mills in my view would be one of those players. With a couple of the others players thathave joined or have been mooted we could be spending money now that we wouldn't have to spend again once we are up. I do have my doubts that we could entice Mills here, as I suspect there'll be a couple of Prem teams that would want to see him join them, and no doubt Rangers and Celtic will come sniffing.

We're now bigger than them, just ask Neil Danns
sphericalfox Posted 28 June 2011 Posted 28 June 2011 We're now bigger than them, just ask Neil Danns That was a sneaky joke. However, I still think there will be slim chance of him coming our way.
I am Rod Hull Posted 28 June 2011 Posted 28 June 2011 He'll probably sign a new contract. Hope he doesn't though, would love him here. Only young too
accessory Posted 28 June 2011 Posted 28 June 2011 What syndrome is that? Promoted syndrome? I'd take that. No, it's third place PL finish syndrome. It's where we spend shedloads and raise expectations but fail to meet them because every tinpot club in the division treats us as a scalp and thus raises their game against us. With Cov, Bristol and Forest in the first two weeks of the season, this may be a real worry.

Hardly an "I'd hate to be them" situation
john doe Posted 28 June 2011 Posted 28 June 2011 I don't think Coventry have enough fans to even manage that. yes but the semen flow may come the other way due to all the wankers
bobbysmith Posted 28 June 2011 Posted 28 June 2011 He went to my school. Bit pricey eh? His brother would be cheaper, not quite Matt's standard yet.
john doe Posted 28 June 2011 Posted 28 June 2011 i think we are more likely to be sniffing around jimmy kebe. 4 mill just sounds to much for a center back( someone from city watching a reading player) hope if its 4 mill shane longs the player. ssl and shane long isnt sven mates with trappatoni?
