Wijnaldum

Not open for further replies.

The difference being of course that even if Advocaat 'wanted' Messi and Ronaldo, he would also know that there is no realistic prospect of either player agreeing to join SAFC or of SAFC having the resources to meet the fees that would be demanded by the two biggest clubs in football, particularly as the fees would be driven upwards by market forces, once it became known that one or both of the world's current best players were available.

However, with regard to Georginio Wijnaldum, Advocaat might reasonably believe that a Premier League club like SAFC would be a realistic destination for a young Netherlands midfield player who may have ambitions to play beyond the Eredivisie and that SAFC should be able to afford the likely transfer fee and salary demands of such a player. Also it is not an unexpected link, is it ? A Premier League club, with a respected Dutch manager, who is known to be looking to add quality to his first team, possibly being interested in a quality player from the Netherlands.

Whilst Wijnaldum is a very good player, he is not in the same league as Messi and Ronaldo and to suggest that he might be is just ridiculous

I did not suggest he was.

I rather clearly implied that saying Dick 'wants' someone is no kind of established link.

There's no source, quote or evidence of even a bid or enquiry. It's a hopeless article.
 
Would be a massive signing.

Can't see it, but I'd bloody love it to happen.

Let's get Clasie too!





Wijnaldum "Feeling decisive '

By Jeroen Kapteijns
Georginio Wijnaldum is coveted by several European (sub) top clubs. Among other Sunderland, Newcastle United, Zenit St Petersburg, AS Monaco, Paris Saint-Germain and Olympique Marseille angling for the services of playmaker PSV. "Ultimately, my feeling is decisive," said Wijnaldum.
Eventually Wijnaldum personal choice will prevail. The former Feyenoord is an emotional person and has previously indicated only make a step higher as the picture quite right for him.
"It may happen this summer. But nothing must for me. Of course I have ambitions, but eventually my sense is decisive," Wijnaldum said it earlier.
Pröpper replacement
Given the many interests that are already relatively early have arisen in the summer transfer, chances nonetheless looms large that the league is going to hit again lost a top player. PSV have already anticipated a departure from Wijnaldum and contacted Vitesse midfielder Davy Pröpper.

VYE NOL DUM btw
What a pathetic article.

It says Newcastle are a top club.
 
we'd have no chance of spelling his name on here.... im out
 
I apologise unreservedly, I don't know what I was thinking !

And there's your problem, right there.

SMB T&C's clearly state,

Any player who it's believed may come here is 'garbage'.

Any player who it's believed may not come is 'way out of our league' and there's no chance he'll come.

Get with the programme mate, you sound like a bit of a troublemaker to me :neutral:
 
Fantastic player but are we really going to get a player that PSG , Monaco , Zenit etc want.
Obviously Dick gives is more chance than we'd other have but I still don't see it.
 
Would love him here. Been probably most consistant decent standard player in eredivisie for 2 or 3 years now. Seems to be psvs talisman though and is their captain so think he would cost 12/13m to bring him in. Cant see that happening
 
Would be over the moon with him. A little pie in the sky as if available there would be bigger clubs in for him. Was impressed with him at the World Cup. Pace, power can pick out a pass and can get stuck in with a good tackle. Sort of a cheaper Yaya.
 
Would be a massive signing.

Can't see it, but I'd bloody love it to happen.

The mags won't be happy at being labelled a sub top club along with PSG like. I fear for the horses already.
