DH1988 1,348 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Yes Moses isn't the big marquee name signing but as above, glad we got him instead of Hulk tbh, EPL proven, small wages, home grown, good head on him, no attitude.Instead of an astronomical transfer fee, huge wages, not EPL proven, hit us in FFP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 well its not like FC Porto have come out with a statement saying he won't be sold this summer or anyone has bought him, till then it stays open.No. Seriously this thread has no purpose now. Why on earth would we buy him? We are packed in the areas Hulk would play in. CF is where we need to add. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedsBlue 1,549 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Get over him. We have enough options in the team and I am sure Moses/Marin will surprise us all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramzi 233 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Get over him. We have enough options in the team and I am sure Moses/Marin will surprise us all.Completely agree, just cause they were low profile, none celebratory signings people are sleeping on them. I expect Ramires type production except a little better offense and slightly less defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nadavTKL 1,787 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Manchester City and Zenit the other two, City have been unusually quiet wont be surprised if they beat us to this one.Its a guess?I cant see where he'll play there. Tevez and Aguaro are pretty similar to him and both are better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nadavTKL 1,787 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 but as i said i wouldn't rule spurs out atm.Im pretty sure they'll get Moutinho with the Modric money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I'm not going to claim that Mosses is better than Hulk, but 40m was just insane. I think our board made the right decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danelka 209 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 If we don't sign him, it will be all Hulk's fault imo.If he had stopped beating around the bush with saying, I want to go either to England or Spain, and said I want to go to Chelsea (because we are the only one from these 2 country who actually wanted him), we would have signed him by now.And, I really hope that if we don't sign him, that crap agent will close his twitter acount.ps. Oh my god, he's at it again.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themightyblue 443 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 (edited) Following the news that was advanced by Russian site lifesports, that Zenit and FC Porto have reached agreement for the transfer of Hulk to the club of St. Petersburg, in exchange for 50 million euros, the player's advisor denied. "A news is false. I talked [yesterday] with the Hulk and his manager, Teodoro Constantino, and they told me that what was written does not correspond to reality, stating to me that are in talks with three clubs and more FC Porto », made even notice the BALL press officer player, Ahaz Fellegger. "There I was told the names of the clubs that are outside of Portugal in negotiations [ed: Chelsea and Zenit are sure], but the permanence of the Hulk at Porto is also a hypothesis', returned to safeguard Fellegger, which has indications of both the player and his agent himself that "between Tuesday and Wednesday everything will be solved."http://www.abola.pt/....aspx?id=348970This transfer is still very much on it seemsIt's google translated and so some bits don't make too much sense Edited August 25, 2012 by themightyblue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy. 2,742 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 that agent guy is at it again with this Hulk deal saying we have had a £40 million bid accepted dunno why i follow him sometimes lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superblue 6,372 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 that agent guy is at it again with this Hulk deal saying we have had a £40 million bid accepted dunno why i follow him sometimes lolSurely hulk is not an option now. We do not need another attacking midfielder/winger and have made the right decision buying Moses.If we were to get another it would be competition upfront and this isn't Hulk's natural position so there is no point spending so much money for him. Llorente for half the price makes so much more sense! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Llorente for half the price makes so much more sense!In fairness i'm pretty sure Hulk's natural position was as a Striker, but was then converted to a winger? I've definitely seen him playing as a striker for Brazil. Maybe the club want him to challenge Torres for CF and Oscar has already said that Robbie wants him to play in Lamps' position. Not sure what the club is doing really, but all we can do is back them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
