Transfer Rumours 2013/14

Hope QPR get relegated, although these players are excellent signings for a team in trouble.

What makes them unlikeable though? saying there unlikeable isn't a reason

Because a few people want them down, everyone just joins in.

‘There’s an awful lot of players at this club earning far too much money for what they are - far, far, far too much money for their ability and what they give to the club.’

‘I don’t really want to see the owners have their pants taken down like they have in the past. A lot of agents made money out of them.

‘I fined a player last week and he was earning more than any player earned at Tottenham. You shouldn’t be paying massive wages when you’ve got a stadium that holds 18,000 people. Newcastle holds 52,000 and most of their players will be nowhere near the wages some of the players are earning here.’

LOL

Bit of a difference between Bosingwa and Dyer on 60k+ and Remy tbh

Why does everyone want them relegated?

So to me it appears that its ok for clubs like Chelsea and Man City to buy the title, but not ok for QPR to buy their Premier League existence. Strange.

Firstly, I don't agree with the way Chelsea and City operate but then again, I'm just a bitter Arsenal fan. Secondly, there's no threat of either of those clubs going under - yes, they may post huge losses, but as they're guaranteed Champions League money and other large revenue streams it's not particularly risk. QPR are adopting an approach that could well be disastrous if they are relegated, of which there is a high possibility. It's reckless spending that could cause them huge problems in the long term.

I like QPR and Sir 'Arry. They certainly are not as unlikeable as Liverpool and Rodgers especially after today's apparent bullshit from Suarez.

I agree with all of it, but the start of the season was meant to be the beginning of something great for them, sadly Fernandez didn't realise just how shit Hughes is in the transfer market and the rest is history. The exact same thing 'could' have happened to CIty as well, but they signed players of quality (like Remy and possibly M'Vila) and put a TEAM together that wanted just one thing, to win. QPR don't have that at the moment, but they will get that mentality under Redknapp and i do believe they will stay up. It is indeed a massive gamble spending even more money and as we all know its one that could horrendously back like Portsmouth who you've already mentioned. We're not gonna know until the end of the season and if it does go wrong we can all laugh at them then, but i think that the gamble indeed pay off this time.

Where he admits to cheating ? Jog on

And Gill, who was speaking at the FA’s 150th anniversary launch, has now confirmed that the highly-rated youngster is on United’s radar.

“He’s one of the players we’re looking at and we’ll see what happens,” he said. “There’s a long way to go. He’s one of the players we’re looking at. That’s all I’ll say at the moment.”

Gill added: “Even if we did do something with Wilfried Zaha, that would be for the summer.”

Negotiations are understood to be far more advanced than Gill made out, however, with Palace manager Ian Holloway looking into the possibility of taking Federico Macheda on loan as part of the deal.

Elsewhere, United are also believed to be monitoring Swansea City captain Ashley Williams.

Although Sir Alex Ferguson caused controversy by claiming Williams “could have killed” Robin van Persie for kicking the ball at the striker’s head when the two sides met in December, the United boss is believed to be a keen admirer of the player.

Ferguson has increasingly focused his attention on United’s defence over the last few months, with three of his key players coming to the end of their prime. His interest in Leighton Baines to eventually replace Patrice Evra is long-standing, while Nemanja Vidic and Rio Ferdinand are 31 and 34 respectively and both have a history of injury problems

Meanwhile, an Old Trafford source confirmed that the club is "waiting to see" what will happen with Wesley Sneijder.

A move is now unlikely despite extensive contact from the playmaker's agent. Only if the player's desperation to secure a move sees a dramatic drop in wage demands, would Ferguson be prepared to take a gamble.

The Scot is understood to be unwilling to alter the dynamic of a team on a good run of form by bringing such a big star into the club.
