The Doctor Posted 26 August 2014 Share Posted 26 August 2014 Tidy enough player but £5m would be around what we should be paying. I'd definitely not go higher than 7m, but it looks like they're going to take the pish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox 4 Life Posted 26 August 2014 Share Posted 26 August 2014 What I would do for a Balotelli style signing where we hear about it when the fee is agreed then the medical and signing sealed within a couple of days. It seems all of our transfers are long winded, clubs know we are desperate for cover and we have money to spend so they will definitely try and take the piss!

Tielemans63 Posted 26 August 2014 Share Posted 26 August 2014 I can see this playing out like the Ulloa transfer with JM handing in a transfer request and us paying about £8 million with add-ons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tielemans63 Posted 26 August 2014 Share Posted 26 August 2014 This is exactly why the transfer window is a terrible idea and should be scrapped IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finnegan Posted 26 August 2014 Share Posted 26 August 2014 I wouldn't be upset if we paid 7/8 for him. Fairly solid premiership player in a position we need to cover. Not like we've splashed the cash up til now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not like we've splashed the cash up til now. I can see him here for £7m my prediction is unvaling McArthur, Esteban, Deeney and some unknown defender by Friday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat Burger Posted 26 August 2014 Share Posted 26 August 2014 Wow, some of our fans are absolute morons, this would be a very practical signing. Why do some people think we DESERVE BETTER than McArthur? Pearson will think he's worth (to us) whatever we're willing to pay. So chill your clit-beans.

Bamba's Babes Posted 26 August 2014 Share Posted 26 August 2014 Imagine a club that has Dave Whelan as Chairman and Harry Redknapp as manager. They'd have their own collumn in the tabloids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearson will think he's worth (to us) whatever we're willing to pay. So chill your clit-beans. Perhaps the fact Pearson has been dangling Cambiasso in front of us and spouting "I'm more hopeful now" and we end up with a panic buy in McArthur. So yes in this scenario that we have been spoon fed all transfer window so far I think we do deserve better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tielemans63 Posted 26 August 2014 Share Posted 26 August 2014 Whelan is entitled to get the best deal for Wigan - I just hope his demands are realistic. Hopefully MacArthur himself is keen on the move and puts in a transfer request. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy who was absolutely furious that details of the talks were revealed and called the leaker a ballonhead for it? If 'more hopeful' makes you think we've basically already signed him then you must be the kind of guy who can assume you have a guaranteed shag when a woman smiles at you.

adamlcfcbevo85 Posted 26 August 2014 Share Posted 26 August 2014 Tbh if LCFC put a bid of 5 mill to man utd for Powell it would probs be accepted, but Mcarthur is a very good player wouldn't pay more than 6 mill thou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
