Alexandre Mendy (transfer rumour)

[0verlord44]

Id be dropping this fella and going for Tobias Lauritsen at Sparta Rotterdam

Speakman get it sorted!

 

[Arfa Sleep]

Nobody outside the club knows what fee we paid for him.

Indeed, I'd be absolutely stunned if we brought in £5m from his sale.

 

[0verlord44]

The fact he isn’t training and not named in squad is very positive for us. Player is obviously digging his heels in. Think it will happen as rarely is this situation resolved and the player stays….

aye so we get to pay more money for a player who wont be fit until October, toppa.

 

[johnny kayo]

And who exactly thinks they are privy to this info. Made up guesswork. We will meet in the middle imo....eventually.

I’d agree

You said we reportedly signed him on a free, we didn't.

Well not a chance we got £5m because he'd done absolutely nothing and played fewer than 90 minutes, his contract length isn't going to change that really. A fee has never been reported from what I can see but we can take a decent guess at it.

However, if Speakman miraculously did manage to get £5m based on what Lihadji had done then build the bloke a statue.

And so can @Father Jack Hackett make a guess at it. He went to Saudi too if I’m not mistaken, not FJH. I’m amazed how some people can be so adamant they are right at something they freely admit they know nothing about whilst completely denigrating others, but there you go
And of course his length of contracts does affect what people have to pay. I’m not saying he was or wasn’t £5m but football is a funny owld game

I'm just going to assume nothing will happen with Mendy until the last couple days of the window.

The fact that Caen are getting increasingly frustrated is good for us too, they don’t want an unhappy player in their squad and the pressure is seemingly building.

 

[scott934]

We play three in the middle now. Jobe - Neil - Browne, with Jobe going up top to make it a two when we're out of possession and Neil sitting deeper when we're in possession. So if Ekwah leaves that would leave us with Rigg, Aouchiche and Ba as cover, Rigg and Jobe won't be trusted to play that Neil role yet and Ba and Aouchiche aren't really CMs, so it leaves us in a perilous position for cover. Unless Triantis or Lenz are seen as possibles, I'd say we're a little light even before Ekwah potentially leaves.

That is exactly how I see it as well.

I'm just going to assume nothing will happen with Mendy until the last couple days of the window.

Aye same here, I'm basically assuming this is the squad until the international weekend in September.

 

[connolly_31]

So the latest is we’ve offered £1m they want £4m we are f***ing miles apart ain’t we.

About £3m I’d say

"the attack is struggling as Alexandre Mendy is in individual recovery, still hoping to join Sunderland"

Absolute farce this.

Its so unprofessional from the player, caen and yet the biggest joke is that we still have no strikers!

 

[everstar]

We’re is the £2 million we will have received from Southampton getting promoted

Pays a small portion of the money we lose each year I suppose

 

[Hongkongphooey]

We should throw in Hemir to sweeten the deal

What do all the other clubs do that are losing money every year in the championship?. People act like we are the only ones nee one makes money in this league.

 

[Bears Beets]

Christ we want to complete the Mendy deal not completely destroy it

 

[Hongkongphooey]

Christ we want to complete the Mendy deal not completely destroy it

Well if Chelsea can get a fee for Burstow then anything is possible

has Ollie Norwood got a club yet, he came for a medical before Browne signed didn't he?

 

[Father Jack Hackett]

We should throw in Hemir to sweeten the deal

and then have add another couple of million to what we’ll have to give them?

Well if Chelsea can get a fee for Burstow then anything is possible

“Hello, it’s Kristjaan Speakman here. We’d like to also offer Hem……hello, hello”

The report I'd read was Roker Report. That solves it then, we got £5m and wasted it.

 

[Hot Since 82]

The report I'd read was Roker Report.

Every report read at the time, including the BBC said undisclosed fee. There was plenty chat on here when he left to go to Saudi folk incorrectly stating he was a free transfer into Safc.
