Dreaming Of: Real, Barca, Chelsea + 1 Last Year Of Feyenoord (loan back)

I bet he's dreaming of the €€€'s...

He's on his way to Chavski in that case.

The funny thing is that he keeps saying that he doesn't want to offend Feyenoord or disrespect them by directly talking about Real Madrid yet he poses with an AS cover in his hand

This is actually even worse than saying "I want to play for Madrid." I guess we will be getting Drenthe after all. I still have my doubts though since if we sign our potential targets we would already have Reyes/Robben (and maybe Robinho) as LWs and Marcelo/Torres as LBs. All 4 of these players are also very young so they would be playing with us for a long time.

The logical thing would then be to withdraw our bid for Robben and spend that money on Quaresma since our right wing is severely lacking.

RQ talk has died down.. I would be happy to spend 25 M EUR on him anyday of the week

Atleti is in for him and was said to sign him for close to 20M€.

no way, if that happens i will cry myself to sleep. if they let him go it will be for close to 30m€

Bloody hell ,€20M for a lad whos done nothing yet and people are saying he should go for €30M. What have you all been smoking?!

I see, that makes more sense.

That would mean Drenthe is worth 40M

According to Feyenoord the club has NOT negiotiated with any club about the transfer of Drenthe.

Chelsea tabled a ridiculously low bid & Real offered slightly more. Feyenoord replied they want a ridiculously high tranferfee. No reply from the Drenthe suitors thereafter.

Feyenoord say they're still open to negotiations, but will only consider serious offers, so far they received none.

THat's settled then. Drenthe at feyenoord for another season. Having a great season (by a distance better than last) play at the EC08, and then everyone has to pay at least 12m quid.

Could be one of the best things that has happened for Feyenoord so far.

Good, then he stays with you!

Yep.

Even if he'll be sold, he'll stay at Feyenoord. A loan back for at least 1 season is a precondition to any deal.

Drenthe staying can only benefit Feyenoord. And I love to see the kid play.

So do I

@axe
Groningen used to be part of Drenthe!

Groningen ontstond op de noordelijkste uitloper van de Hondsrug. De oudst bekende schriftelijke vermelding dateert uit 1040, maar vaststaat dat de huidige stad al ver voor dat jaar een bewoonde plaats was. De oudste archeologische vondsten zijn met behulp van de C14-methode gedateerd op circa 3950-3720 voor Chr. Een onafgebroken bewoning kan worden vastgesteld vanaf de derde eeuw.

Reyes and Drenthe both slip out of our hands...

TM wrote:Reyes and Drenthe both slip out of our hands...

Don't think that should be a big issue. Reyes didn't impress last season, bar the last match. Drenthe isn't ready to start for Real.

@TM

It just means we have to sign Robben. We also have Adrian who I think can do well if given the chance.

You said you're self we had agreed a price, but awaited the player's decision..?

Any who.. hopefully we will pursue QUARESMA!!!!

Edit:

@ Jaime

Yep! He's looked impressive in matches i've seen him.

You really think Adrian is that good? He hasn't impressed at all whenever I've seen him.

I was very impressed with him for Castilla last year. I was disappointed he didn't play more with Spain at the U-20 WC. He's just 19 so obviously still a long way to go but I think he's very talented.
