Charlie Austin @ £4.0m

Bargain.

Now sell that traitor Pelle

Bargain of the season - worth 10-15

That is theft!

the man has no tendons in his knee he is shot

If something looks too good to be true....

Erm...he was free in the summer.

So it's 4 million for 4-5months

They knew his contract was up in the summer zazu - last summer when they could easily have flogged him for at least 3 times the figure.

Cracking signing. How did Toon miss out on him. would have fit them perfect.

The likes of Villa should have been bending over themselves to get him

Funnily enough, CCM, that's what I've been told today.
Unable to insure him, hence the price.
But, fair play to Saints.
Chance well worth taking, IMO.
Good luck to the lad.

How many goals has he scored for QPR this season ?

10.

Why?

I genuinely did not know,was curious.

From 16 Games

Hence the question mark.

Bought him for 4 mill sold him for 4 mill

Let the lad have  a decent chance in the prem

Nice lad and a fair player good luck to him and thanks....................

Bargain

Let's not jump the gun, Sonk.
I'll reserve my judgement until he plays against the top clubs.

Fair point.

Apart from a barren spell at... Hungerford Town (5 in 30), Austin has been prolific.

E.G. 45 in 82 at QPR.

At Poole Town in the 08-09 season, the boy notched 48 in 42

TBF I would have took him at Arsenal and he cost **** all, shrewdy move imho

to be fair if you were pool,utd,spurs etc and spent probably a billion on strikers between you over the last 2 or 3 seasons you,d make a right **** of yourself solving the problem out of the petty cash,someone somewhere might start thinking you havnt a fcuking clue what your doing,they,ve probably all the top clubs had a pact in blood not to touch him

Tbf if reports are true he comes with risks attached,his knees (well documented) are a issue.I do not know if insurers were prepared to take a risk.

Is Sturridge insured? Wilshere?

Can't see any of these clubs getting much a of a payout.

dont know ?

good striker..hope his injuries don't prevent him fulfilling his potential
altho' unfortunately they probably will

didnt stop west ham selling the family and everyone elses silver buying carroll

you dont need insurance for a 10 million player, ffs might as well buy an extended warranty when you buy a toaster .....

chelsea have 30 odd players out on loan,all on wages most of which wont attract a penny in transfer fees dont think there,d be worried about insurance for one player

have i got this right, hes finished, his tendons are phucked, that well maybe, but all he needs is his head and the last time i looked

   it was still on his shoulders......  what a steal imo even if he never scores again.   


   heres A LINK  for the gutted toon fans that FCB couldnt afford the 4k.

I think that the £100k a week wages that were allegedly asked has put some clubs off....

WHY..

Should have changed his name too charlito austinato clubs would be bidding 20 million more.

I'm sure if he keeps his 'Columbian' problem under control 4m will indeed be sniff.. sorry snip.

Surprisingly not an LFC related thread then I opened the post and saw the whole opening content.
