Maddogbob Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Prefer Ayala to Hanley if I personally had a choice. Hanley's wages are eye watering to say the least. Mind you god knows what Ayala is on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torryowl Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 grant hanley =martin taylor mark 2 ...................never heard of the ayala though if he is the bloke who got sent off at boro in the cup I don't remember him impressing me .but then opposites rarely do so i'll give him the benefit of the doubt .

PeakOwl Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 21 minutes ago, Tamworthowl said: According to the article, Hanley has four years left on £45k/week. So if we take on his contract, with zero transfer fee, it'd cost us £9m. I'd say that's about the limit we should of pay. So Hanley needs to take a big pay cut and/or Newcastle need to cut their losses, significantly. And if we were to give Hanley £45k, I hope the club are wary of the possible impact on other players in the squad. Shocking that anybody could see fit to pay Hanley that amount. He's an error-prone donkey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, it's Fat Ashley ethics through and through. He can give the go ahead to pay 45K per week to the likes of Hanley while the majority of people that work for him are on a shilling a week and a bowl of gruel per day if they are lucky.

Adam Reachs left peg Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 (edited) Two solid centre backs exactly what we need I would probably say Hanley would play with lees and Ayala,loovens as back ups Edited June 9, 2017 by Adam Reachs left peg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReluctantNicko Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Burnley will be looking for a centre-half when they sell Keane - two CHs if they sell Mee as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless he would take a pay cut to play regularly elsewhere............... If that was the case id be happy to sign him on a season long loan as back up to ayala Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I admit to knowing nothing about player contracts, but.... One of of those would be Fletcher: a free transfer. Paying Hanley £45k per week for four years (i.e. picking up his existing contract) and paying a significant transfer fee (did Newcastle pay best part of £10m?) seems way over the top for a decent but not exceptional defender. As I said, a free transfer (unlikely) plus £9m in wages (or some combination adding up to the same) seems about top end to me, especially if we are paying for other new recruits.

Bluesteel Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 I quite liked the idea of Sean Morrison as he's a beast, but Daniel Ayala would be an amazing signing for us. Still unsure on Hanley. Why are Hull and Boro selling the players that got them promoted in Ayala and Davies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Hanley was 5m, but you're right he would be very expensive. There must be more cost effective options? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOwl Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Ayala would be oustanding, take him in a heartbeat. Cant see Boro selling though myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not seen enough of him to comment - although, I thought he looked really good whenever I have seen him at Hillsborough or away at Ewood Park. He's obviously been highly regarded as he wouldn't be on that kind of money at Newcastle. Whether or not he is living up to expectations is another thing entirely. If he comes to us and plays as well as he can, then he'd be worth the money, if not then he wouldn't - BUT, I suppose the same can be said for a £10k a week player, etc, etc. Edited June 9, 2017 by AwokenGiant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a tongue in cheek comment mate as Taylor and Abdi (so far) never lived up to the mark. I can't think of a current Watford player that we would be in for or how realistic it would be.
