Henrique 9,133 Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 FFP isn't a reality. FFP is a joke. It is to stop small clubs being taken over and having 400 million pounds spent in 2 transfer windows basically. Its basically so the AC Milans, Barcelonas, Real Madrids, Man Uniteds etc are all going to be the only elite clubs - making as much money as they want - spending it if they want with no consequence. Basically it won't allow teams to grow into top teams in the manner us, City and PSG did.Joke is not the opposite of reality. FFP might be a joke, but it is a reality. Malaga is banned for a year from European competitions because they could not pay wages and taxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henrique 9,133 Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 FFP is to stop other clubs competing with big clubs (of which we are one) through means of outside investment. It benefits us long-term, but I agree it's a massive joke. Either way, it's the new reality and we're making strides to comply with it. A owner can buy a small club and invest in the academy or in a new stadium. Investments in academy or in the club structure does not count in FFP. In fact Roman is part of the process where football will become a matter of wich club have the richest owner. Thats why I believe FFP might work.

Thats why I believe FFP might work.What it DOES stop though is lets say an Abramovich coming to a club and just buying the best available talent out there from his own pockets and not by what money the club produces. In a sense, this is advantageous to big established clubs like ourselves who have already gone through that process. What FFP will do is stop a new Man City, PSG or Chelsea occurring which is fair enough. Back on topic though, I think Ba doesn't want to sign because the club have told him he'll be behind Torres. Don't think it's anything with the wages - perhaps as people have said the agent fees could've also played a hand in it but we'll see.

If we're just looking for someone to back-up Torres* there are many average strikers in the league, Shane Long etc that wouldn't mind coming here. At the end of this window, i think we will get someone that is capable of starting over Torres.*This will be really stupid lol, do the people running the transfers even watch games?!

Ps. Happy new year to all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5354 204 Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 I tohught he had a left foot that might not pass the medical? I hope we wont sign a last minute wounded striker like Torres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheva. 5,373 Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 He wants 90k a week according to Neil Ashton. And his agents want 5m - what bargain? lol http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2255475/Demba-Bas-transfer-nightmare-middlemen.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waterfall 893 Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 I think any contract with Ba should be heavily appearance-based. btw Long wouldn't start here but he should. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted January 1, 2013 Author Share Posted January 1, 2013 We are doubling his wages and he wants more? Greedy cunt. Starting to get put off by his idiotic demands. He is a good player but not Falcao. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushman 2,043 Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Any contract with BA should be carefully written. Based on appearance, goals scored..., somehow, I still think 80though a week is too much for him. Agent fees & all that comes up to close to 30m, too much in my way of thinking.The kid Lukaku should be called upon & certainly Chelsea can guarantee the same amount of play time as WB now.

Muzchap 8,966 Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 30 million for him!!!!No way!!!Go sign Loic Remy, that Newcastle were also after and leave BA in Newcastle.There's so many better players than him, 90k week, double your money, WTF he should take a cut to come here and compete for trophies!!! Definitely NOT CFC material!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushman 2,043 Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 I honestly do not understand why BA is sought for. One does not need to be a manager to see BA is after money here. Is he worth 80thou a week ?To me, he is not.I too would rather see an alternative to BA.Now, I read Chelsea refused to pay BA agents 2m in fees they are demanding.Chelsea offered standard 5 % of BA´s contract. Also, less than 70thou a week was offered.I´d say, take it or leave it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GermanBlue 82 Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 If that's true, what a greedy cunt. I really hope we don't offer him that much. What a dilemma, we need a new striker very quickly and Ba and his agent seem to know that. I hope this is just to make the most out of a fast transfer and his wage demands will decrease as the January draws to a close, because he seemed like the perfect January transfer in contrary to most of the other options that are discussed in the media.
