£6m is still hell of a gamble.
May as well said Bondy Bond to Vegas and hope he comes back with treble so we can splurge it on someone who has two working knees.
Lose a player to a knee injury, sign a player with a history of knee injuries. Wonderful.
Also, AGAIN, Borini...why? Why does anyone rate him? He's tidy, yes, but lots of footballers are tidy. Tony Thorpe was tidy. He wasn't worth £13m though. Take off the one and you're at about what his market rate should be. |
Borini's Wiki page says he plays for QPR |  | | |

the rules of DEADLINE DAY....
section A, part iv
Harry must sign an ex=spurs player every "window", 3 or more is better

every player who had played under Harry must be put on offer during a "window"
section C part i
QPR will add the most ludicrous "clauses" into any DEADLINE DAY contract
section Z part i
NO PARKING outside the ground on deadline day! |  | | |

so if we're after borini then defoe must be a no go, shame as I think him and austin would have been perfect together. |  |

I presume the last Italian forward we had was Dichio ( though born in west London !). | | | |

Slightly confused by the Diarra situation - didn't Lokomotiv bin him off? How can they now demand cash? |
one would guess that there is obviously some legal dispute there would be interesting to see if we went in with 24 players because if he is legally unattached can be signed anytime |  | | |

Borini looked a decent player last year but not sure about him at that price |  | | |

Pellicori actually scored for us in a league cup tie though. There's not many players who can say that. And 8 league appearances with no goals. What's the betting Borini smashes that particular record? |  |

if we are not looking at Townsend or Lennon anymore, how about a cheeky bid for Nathan Redmond from Norwich |  |
| And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

Those two media prats in their players' tracksuits are doing a live 'Transfer Deadline Day special' broadcast. As if this day could not get more inane.
Why am I supposed to care about the tactical views of a couple of press officers who are paid by the club?
Can't wait to see a £20m Fabio Borini holding up that #TransferDeadlineDay scarf. |  | | |

McNulty from the BBC is reporting the fee as up to £13m including various add ons.
The fee seems to high, but i watch Sunderland a lot (my wife is a mackem) and Borini is good. He has a knack for scoring crucial goals and is incredibly hardworking to boot. | | | |

I'd ignore the fees being mentioned, for now, every media outlet seem to be saying a different figure | | | |

Whilst this is true, Dave, not one of them is quoting a fee that I would suggest is remotely sensible, ie. £5m or under. The bloke has made 80 odd appearances for Roma, Liverpool and Sunderland (not lacking in midfield supply) and he's scored 20 goals. For us, that would probably equate to 10....across 2 seasons.
Yes, I know I'm being flippant. In all seriousness, I know he works hard and is quite competent, it's just for the fees quoted we should/could be getting someone fantastic. |  | | |

7 goals for a relegation fodder side last season playing off Altidore & Wickham seems fair enough to me. Unfortunately if you want a striker these days, especially on deadline day you have to pay silly money. | | | |

For as long as I have a hole in my arse, Fabio Borini is not worth anywhere close to double figures. I have no idea why, if we are even entertaining that kind of amount, we are not just paying the 12m Blackburn want for Rhodes and geting the best striker in the Championship. |  |

Brendon Rogers signed him for Liverpool for " fees around £11 million" we are signing him for fee's that could amount to something similar, plus the deadline day add-on....he'll finally arrive for "fee undisclosed"
His value or ROI will go up and down with every goal he makes and scores...he's a lively player, does a lot more work outside the box than Defoe, and does score goals in the box and from outside.
If Defoe could pair up with Austin so can this 22/23 yo can as well.
Rogers coached him at Chelsea, took him to Swansea and then Liverpool....only the dazzling gem that is Raheem Sterling has forced him to sell him....imo! Encouraging, a test for our coaching set-up to see whether we can keep up with the "meticulously professional" Brendan Rogers.... | | | |

i do agree but the fees for Mccmormack and co have made the market go berserk. I still think we'll end up with Defoe instead, I'd rather Borini personally.
I think Borini has gone for 10 million twice now and it was 13 million when he was going to Sunderland really so not going to get him for 5 million. [Post edited 1 Sep 2014 17:47]
