£10 Million a year plus £10 Million agent fees.
no more like we are fecking desperate with two days to go. reputable journalists like Romano quoted he wanted large agent fees a two year deal and high wages and bingo! Here comes Ed on his white horse. What a fecked up club
Genuinely thankful for these sort of comments.
I'd probably go insane if I couldn't find something to laugh about.Should've added that Cavani's off the ball movement opens up acres of space for any able and intelligent runners around him. Bruno will find he has more room and chances to shoot trailing Cavani. Both Rashford and Greenwood can also piggyback off his movement.
Still, this is a signing we shouldn't have forced ourself to be in the position to make. Any notion there was a masterplan in place behind our end to the window is blown out of the water with this signing.
The wage he will be on demands he be one of our elite performers. Elite Cavani hasn't been seen for a few years now, so what are we playing at?
Don’t give it the big one to me . I’ll tell you to back the team if I think you’re not.
The quote wasn’t directed at you. I said we need to get behind the team.
I will be backing Ole all the way, it’s only the Idiots that won’t be.
terrible signing. I’m so sick of this club.
Guess we changed some settings in that database which help us to pick players.
So long as this is replacement for Ighalo, it makes good sense, and Im fine with it. Cavani is a thoroughbred and professional in elite world football, albeit at the very end of his career.
Good example for our young ones to learn from, and should be able to do well as impact sub, against lower teams and cup games.
It's £9 MIllion reportedly. It's been reported in euros.
Eh?
it’s clearly doneEd Woodward to dumb door knob. May more verbal abuses flow your way.
One of my favorite players to watch for the last ten years, hopefully he's got a little left in the tank for a parting salvo.
Exactly. It's a solid signing.
Type of signing that has the likes of us and Milan where we are.
we gave the password to ed
Were they? Sánchez certainly, but the other two?
Falcao: We still had Rooney and RvP.
Schweinsteiger: Rotation with Carrick.
Feel free to feck off
I would think it's the opposite: we're desperate, which gives him leverage. His options in Europe were null, but going off to China, Qatar etc. was open as a last resort.
Cavani's camp very probably cannot believe their luck.
First we promise that we're looking at long term. Then we bring Ighalo on loan and on huge salaries as a short term fix. Few months after we renew Ighalo's contract till January we bring Cavani (injury prone in his 30s) as a short term fix to score the goals our previous short term fix signings could score.
Trust the process indeed.
Trust the process indeed.
Yep, context matters.
Last January we went for Josh King and ended up with an on-loan Ighalo as our backup striker. In that context, replacing Ighalo with Cavani on a free transfer is fine.
However, in the context of Cavani being only the second signing we've managed to complete in the final days of a window in which we badly needed to strengthen, it isn't fine at all.
And if we look at this window in the context of multiple summers in a row in which we've failed to secure the desired number of signings, it's even worse.
Still a ridiculously salary for a player of his age and likely squad role.
Haha, love it
if thats correct then the Sancho deal must be a formaility. No way we spend that on this guy and dont bow to Dortmund. No feckin chance
I'm well rested, pal, thanks for your concern.
I would have bough a right-sided attacker, preferably left-footed, and a CB or LB, because we only have one player that is natural to the position.
But Redcafe knows better or course....
Password being: Password.
I've warmed to the idea. No better Ighalo replacement really, and he's played out wide for psg before

Sick in mouth.
I asked who, not which positions.
This is just depressing.
Really can’t believe Ole wants this signing to happen. Let’s hope for a failed medical.

Goldbridge is in full meltdown mode.
I’m ok with Cavani, who provides cover we need for Martial, provided we bring in Sancho, which seems pretty clear now we will.

Rooney was one of my favourite players to watch but I wouldn’t sign him now.
I absolutely can’t wait to see Cavani play for us. Yeah over the moon. Close thread.
The irony in this is, it’s fans like yourself, who are detrimental to the club going forward.
PSG tried to retain him, but he chose to go. He still played well. Not having injury riddled season. Had other option beside Chelsea to choose.
Cavani is the opposite in every point there.
I bet they fecking aren't
200k a week for an aging squad player seems madness to me. Ighalo's is bad enough. My backup strikers would be Rashford and Greenwood and use the Cavani money to get the Sancho deal done. I'd prefer to strengthen RW/LB/CB than a backup striker.
