Who in their right mind would spend £5m on him on the back of a good showing in a South American tornument? He failed with us and is now failing in Spain. At this moment in time he obviously isn't good enough to play at the top levelwizzo_66 wrote:
Sadly I agree with this one. It looks like we missed a trick selling him after the CONCAF tournament where he looked very impressive and probably held his value at about £4-5 million. He wouldn't be anywhere near that now, he gets taken off at half time nearly every game for Zaragoza.
Stranger things have happened? Who on earth decides Titus Bramble is good enough to play Premier League football? Who on earth spends £1 million on Julien Faubert for 6 months. Barerra had an outstanding showing in that tournament, and we paid £4 million for him. Who is to say a Spanish team wouldn't have paid at least £4 million for him this summer.Yea Why Not wrote: Who in their right mind would spend £5m on him on the back of a good showing in a South American tornument?

Sorry I didn't mean to be harsh. I just don't see who in their right mind would spend millions of pounds on a player who has shown no signs of being able to perform at the top levelSmonnie wrote:

Me neither, but I don't know why you had to bring up golf clubs as well.Yea Why Not wrote:

Because £3-4m is an obsurd amount of money for Barrera. As is £500 for a **** set of golf clubsSmonnie wrote: Me neither, but I don't know why you had to bring up golf clubs as well.
I didn't know you could get West Ham golf clubs. Can you post a link?Yea Why Not wrote: Because £3-4m is an obsurd amount of money for Barrera. As is £500 for a sh*t set of golf clubs
Absolutely, Pink.the pink palermo wrote:
Indeed .
My point is as much as it is nice to speculate about players we would like, the issue becomes affordability and who has to go to raise the money / free up some wage budget
The players many would want shot of wouldn't generate too much in the way of fees , and or release much budget for better players wages .After all, our entire squad cost less than £22m to build, and that includes £5m for Barerra and O'Neil who won't feature anytime soon .
Very few of the players for whom we have paid a fee will generate a higher fee upon departure - if any fee at all .
You can get golf club headcovers thoughSmonnie wrote:

Those are cool. They're not £500 though. Am I missing something?Hammer Matty wrote:

I'd take all those and Martinez as well .Puff Daddy wrote:If they are stranded at Christmas, as looks likely, Wigan may look to cut costs in readiness for life in the Championship and if so, I wouldn't mind a couple of their players. I like the look of their keeper, Al Habsi and Maynar Figueroa too and although he has been atrocious so far this season, Hugo Rodallega has a reasonable goal scoring record in the Premiership.
We have a goalscorer in Baldock, although admittedly without him we're stranded on the consistant finishing front. As much as I'd love another Yossi, where does he fit in with Noble providing the passes, Diop as a wardrobe infront of the back four, Nolan captain fantastic, and Collison continuing to improve, as well as Lansbury coming back. But, with only two wingers in the squad, Taylor picking up injuries, and Faubert, as much as he has improved, being Faubert. Another winger would be useful, although waiting for promotion (if we're capable without another winger) and going all out for Zaha or Moses could be a good idea. We should also try for JonJo Shelvey, not sure how highly he's rated at Liverpool, but with Henderson, Gerrard, Adam, Lucas and Spearing ahead of him, we might have a chance, loan with a view to buy?RyanWHUFC wrote:After yesterday I've come to the decision that we need a striker who can finish consistently, a creative midfielder and a winger with lots of pace and who want's to take his man on and beat him.
If Wigan go down, Moses could be a steal, Rodriguez at Burnley could also be attainable at a reasonable price, Lallana could be very expensive, especially if Southampton go up. Zaha depending on contract length and who else is interested, if he wants to join us, he could be a reasonable price. If Shelvey isn't in Liverpool's plans anytime soon we could get him.RM6 wrote:Joe Bennett, the 'boro left back looked useful yesterday.
Clyne and Zaha from Palace are interesting prospects.
Jay Rodriguez could be worth looking at.
Lallana would be a very good signing with Shelvey and Moses when we go up.
Could we afford it though?
It is absolutely paramount, we sign a a quality, proven, striker who will guarantee us goals, not chancers who just might, but more than likely, will not. Somebody who has been there and done it. Somebody who can score more than one goal in a game and can do it on a regular basis. Clyne is a good player, like him, but we are quite well off at right back, although I do think we need more options at left full back and I would go for Maynar Figueroa there. As to can we afford it ? Can we afford not to is the question. Agree about Moses to lead us to the promissed land thoughRM6 wrote:Joe Bennett, the 'boro left back looked useful yesterday.
