That said, can anyone think of any successful loan-into-permanent deals we’ve had?!

Bang average on loan, well stocked in his position and cost a fortune… and we still signed him. Arguably even worse than Tomlin and Dinning for that reason!

I think you’d say Kalas was successful, albeit the way it worked out at £8m probably not value for money! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledAjax Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 Just now, The Journalist said: I think you’d say Kalas was successful, albeit the way it worked out at £8m probably not value for money! Yeh I just looked actually and he ended up playing only 106 times in the four years he was permanently with us, all whilst being out record signing and (probably) highest paid player (ever?). I guess if that's correct then maybe he wasn't a great conversion from loanee to permanent. Like DaSilva I actually think that is one that could be spun either way.

The Nest Egg Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 (edited) 17 minutes ago, Mr Popodopolous said: Tomlin was great on loan then put in decent to good numbers for about 3 months after joining permanently- free kick vs Aston Villa was a sublime strike but his attitude was suspect? I remember he turned and started screaming all sorts at LJ after that goal...weird bloke that's for sure, imagine that talent but in a different guy Edited January 15 by The Nest Egg 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offside Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 Glad he’s signed permanently. I like him as a player and he has potential. Good shot on him and good at set pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_Alligator Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 (edited) This is, as said previously, is good business. I hope that this becomes the rule rather than the exception. With the way that football is run financially today, shrewd work in the transfer market (coupled with a successful academy) is probably the only way for clubs like ours to progress. Credit to those involved in both deals today. Edited January 15 by Red_Alligator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bard Posted January 16 Report Share Posted January 16 19 hours ago, Lydered said: SSN have this down as a free. Not suggesting it's true for a second, just highlighting it Well it technically is but the fee for TGH went down accordingly. We could have sold Weimann for £9 million and bought TGH for £10 million. The difference between the 2 fees is what matters to the clubs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
