the ignorance on here baffles me sometimes?

 

2.5 million????

 

you reckon thats enough to decide if we should be dabbling

 

id give the thread the time of day if anybody knew what wages he was after

 

if its 50k a week, it stops being 2.5 million and becomes 12.5 over 4 years

 

fook me, give me strength

got to be worth a go at ?2.5m?

 

If we signed Luke Young you'd throw your toys out of the pram demanding big name signings, you can't have it both ways.

That's a fair point.

 

Just for fun though, if we were to assume that his wages were within our bracket, what do you think?

 

I like what I've seen and he's one of the few players that's inevitably available by clubs following relegation that I believe would improve not only our squad, but first eleven.

I think he's OK and would be an improvement

 

But I also suspect he's had his best days, despite his age

 

I'd say, financially, a big gamble for a right back

no chance he will be on 50 k a week at boro, we should be able to match boro on wages, at the very least we should be showing an interest.

you not think mk?

 

he'll be on a good screw at charlton, signed a contract following interest from curbishley/west ham, and he's been enticed out of the smoke for smogland

 

if i heard he was on 50k a week, i'd not be shocked

 

if we could get him for a million on master hunts wages i'd be tempted

Who are we interested in then boys if Luke Young is not the man for the job?

50k a week give me a break. He wont be on more than ?20k. Charlton wont continue to pay that so we dont need to offer that much. My guess is the lad wants to play prem football and would take a paycut to improve his england chances (saying that at bolton theyre nil!). I reckon Boro will offer less than ?20k a week. He is a class right back only behind neville and richards in england. How anybody can say he isnt worth 2.5m need their heads testing.

How much have the following been bought for recently;

Richardson, konchesky, baird, chopra, greg halford. Come on boys take a look at reality

after watching samuel in that peace cup final, hunt isnt all that bad!

 

he got made to look a fool on more than one occasion.

 

hopefully its just a pre-season thing.

is the concept of contracts beyond you?

Dyer is/was apparently lined up for ?100k at West Ham

 

So I wouldn't be surprised to hear Young commanding ?50k or close to that

 

After all, the football world has gone mad, again

Why?

 

You will really struggle to find any footballer at a decent Premiership club on under 10K, an England international would laugh at 20k a week. Is that a figure you just plucked out of the air?

Posted

especially when he's the third best english right back (debatable) behind one at united and one quite possibly leaving his massive club any time soon, for serious money

casino........concept of contracts. Youve lost me???

dyer to w.ham for 100k a week are people believing whats in the papers. Its bulls**t. Rooney doesnt get that.

You ask why boro wont need to offer more than ?20k coz i think thats nearer to what hes on now and he wants out so he will take what he can to get prem football. especially when theres only boro showing an interest with the looks of it.

 

Carlos you said You will really struggle to find any footballer at a decent Premiership club on under 10K, an England international would laugh at 20k a week. Is that a figure you just plucked out of the air?

 

I agree with the ?10k thing but who mentioned any decent prem clubs. For an ex international full back at a championship club he cannot demand more than ?20k a week. If he does he will stay at charlton. Take the top 5 (now inc Spurs) out of the equation along with owen at newcastle and possibly money mad west ham at the moment and IMO theres not another prem team paying wages of over ?40k and thats for their star man ie Anelka, Cahill, Benni McCarthy, Sol Campbell. Are any of these a full back? Then it is in my opinion that he isnt on more than ?20k a week.

Ur guna tell me robbie fowlers earning 50k a week at cardiff next coz he's an international and from a decent prem club.

We're not.

He's getting ?25,000 a week and a luxury house.

Robbie Fowler is one of the wealthiest footballers out there, I doubt very much if he's that bothered about wages when he's making more money from property and the interest on his millions in the bank. His career is behind him.

 

Luke Young on the other hand hasn't made millions and won't be earning a penny below 25K if he moved to Boro. Robert Huth cost them ?5 million, he'll be on top wages as will Woodgate. Both defenders at the same club. Your opinion is formed without any substance. And if you think Cahill is a star man you really are a lost cause.

 

PS cut the chav language.

Luke Young is a crock. Stay well away

 

there is a story out there that the only reason he didn't follow curbishley was down to fitness worries

He failed a medical. He has a long standing knee injury that could 'go' at any minute. When it does, that'll be it, career over. I'd be amazed if anyone signed him.

 

It's a very similar scenario to when Charlton sold Mark Kinsella.
