Summer 2019 Transfer Thread

[Tony Towner]

Keegan, Hoddle and Waddle

2 of those were before the PL

Its about money. You can earn more being an average Brit playing in England than abroad. That's it really.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

John Charles , Denis Law, Ian Rush, Kevin Keegan but its pretty sparse. However it is changing.

Rush was a flop for Juve (although Aldridge was good for Sociedad).

Neither English, mind. Well, Aldridge is but y'know.

I tried to go British. Could have added Best but that was USA.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Trevor Steven for Marseille?

Football didn't start in 1992 you know

And technically I think Gazza went to Lazio before the first PL season started too?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Des Walker was the surprise. Should have been absolutely made for Serie A. Wasn't.

 

[Keef]

Laurie Cunningham for Real Madrid,Jimmy greaves? John Charles? They counting or not,because they played before football was invented in 1992

You dont understand culture. British cannot be further than 2km from a pub at all times. Also young boys do not wish to live away from their families, who live in council flats and cannot move. Money has nowt to do with it.

Am I doing this right, gang?

 

[Keef]

Almost none, closest is bale if you consider him english. Very rare for an englishmen to play abroad though unless hes shit and its scotland or something

You're on fire today,you've just insulted a whole new proud nation by classing bale as English

Trevor Steven for Marseille?

Platt, sampdoria, lineker Barcelona, there have been a number but its been pretty thin in comparison to Europeans in the British game.

Not really, language barriers, family and friends would all come into it too. Much like it has with Cutrone.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

By all accounts Joe Cole was very well liked at Lille.

Our very own Mark Burke was properly appreciated in the Eredivisie, don't get me started on him.

Lineker at Barca of course.

 

[Monstrum]

I said if you consider him english, hes lived in and played for english clubs his whole life I dont think it makes any difference footballing wise where he was born

Get some sleep chap, today has not been your day.

OK I will bite. English is spoken in Europe and in many cases really well as a second language. We are not good in reciprocating . I put money on Cutrone doing a passable interview in English, here, if he comes , before Xmas.

Italians are usually not great at languages in general.

Trapattoni's German is hilarious :icon_lol:

I mean he worked in Germany and Austria for years on end but he's appalling.

 

[wordsleywolf]

. If you honestly think that he doesnt want to move because hell miss his mom, and not because hell be going from a huge salary and a high profile club to a (relatively) low profile club and a lower salary, I dont know what to tell you... you are extrmely naive.

Your earlier points are fine but do you really think he's going to be on less money at Wolves?
