Tuesday rumour - it's a tall one

WasCharleyOne

and I Rumours.com:

"THIS IS THE LIST OF PLAYERS (MY SOURCE HAS TOLD ME) CURBS HAS ON HIS WISH LIST WHICH WOULD COST THE AMOUNT OF 45m WHICH EGGY IS OFFERING:
Dean gerken-Colchester-1m (+walker)
nicky shorey-Reading-3m,
Danny Shittu-Watford-4.5m,
Hermann Hreidarsson-Charlton-3m,
Phil jagielka-Sheffield-4.5m,
Tim Cahill-Everton-7m (+NRC),
jerome thomas-Charlton-2m,
Harry Kewell-Liverpool-2m,
eidur gudJohnsen-Barcelona-8m,
Darren Bent-Charlton-10m (+Harewood),
Mark Viduka-Middlesborough-free."

Now 15M for Bent, Thomas and HH with Harewood thrown in I'd give consideration to.

Obviously a load of ol' tut but mad me laugh.

letthegoodtimesroll

the times reckons he wants scott parker...

So who's lacking imagination here, the papers or Curbs?

3m for Hreidarsson!!

What mug would buy HH for 3m? I would be happy with 500k for him.

Herman's best days are behind him, wihs him all the best for being a great player for us and happily take £500k.

Chris_from_Sidcup

Those valuations above are ridiculous. Shorey who got into the PFA team of the season, 3m the same as HH.
This might be controversial but if Curbs does want HH, i'd happily have Konchesky back in a swap deal.

razil

isnt he out of contract?

The talk this mornnig is Spurs to offer £10M for Dazza and West Ham to offer £12M.
Warming up, but I hope no-one expects us to bat an eyelid until the offers exceed £15M.

It was Curbs that showed Shittu the door at Charlton. £4.5m...nice one Al. Surprised Primus isn't on the list aswell.

in relation to some of last seasons transfers,i think you are all selling darren off too cheap.clubs in the premiership next season will be flush with money regardless of how cheap they can buy abroad.why would any player in the premiership want to come to us as part of an exchange?

£20m looks more reasonable to me.

Yep, but if Curbs wants to give us £3m who are we to argue?

If we had stayed up then yes but clubs will know that a) we need to get some money from somewhere to rebuild the squad and b) Darren probably wants to go.
Still expect the most likely deal to be a players plus cash deal with West ham.

Shittu is a good honest pro but if West Ham's pretensions are Europe why go for him?
