Julio Caesar on 10:30 - Aug 18 with 4977 views | kensalriser | It's hard to believe there isn't a legion of top flight clubs across Europe who'd be interested at the right price. Unfortunately for us, the right price is somewhere below what we're paying him. If there haven't been any offers, it's because his agent has made it clear what he needs. | |

no one did come in for him last year but if we were stupid enough to give him this contract he is fully entitled to want what he is entitled to | | | |

Many, many clubs will have enquired, only the lunacy of Mike Riggs and Mark Hughes combined with the football naivity of Tony Fernandes could make one of the worlds great keepers un-saleable. Market forces and secure contracts rule business...he's cost us a fortune and will continue to do so...his value is dropping, a lesson learnt. It was always going to take a few years for QPR to get clear of these unfeasible contracts they took on..and still it goes on! | | | |

If he was still one of the world's great keepers, Inter wouldn't have wanted rid, more clubs than QPR would have been in for him, and he wouldn't have come here in the first place. | | | | Login to get fewer ads
Julio Caesar on 12:00 - Aug 18 with 4751 views | HollowayRanger | id make him sub for every game and tell him to warm up in front of the paddock every 10 mins id give him some stick probably hand him some chocolate money as well which would suit the fat arsed money grabber still full of rage that QPR allowed him to go on loan to Canada they should have let him rot here and must do again don't give him a single minute of football ANYWHERE! MAKE HIM TRAIN make him turn up for every trip but never use him | |

As said above, he's agreed to tear up his contract if the deal can be done. As you say though, won't stop you calling him a parasite. | | | |

Gracious of him after a year on the sponge. | | | |
Julio Caesar on 14:06 - Aug 18 with 4553 views | rsonist | Like I said on the other thread, it's fine and pragmatic to accept the cynicism of Cesar holding tightly onto a favourable contract (even for someone who's already filled his pockets amply from a starry career). What I don't understand is the urge to defend him as if he were the terrible victim of circumstance and unfair treatment - as if Cesar would play for pennies out of the sheer love of the game, only it just so happened no one was interested in the Brazilian #1 keeper for purely sporting reasons. Yeah right. | | | |

By which you mean doing double training sessions on his own and going to live in a Toronto hotel for 3 months to get to play some football? | | | |

So you seriously think if Cesar just wanted a move to simply play football, Kia 'Not an agent' Joorabchian couldn't sort him something out if he wanted too? I have no problem putting Cesar on the bench and making him earn his cash should this not go through. Green knows he is undisputed number one choice, so we gain nothing by freezing Cesar out. | | | |

Oh no, not a Toronto hotel. In your eyes I suppose Jermain Defoe is another footballing humanitarian aid worker spreading the gospel in horrid conditions for the love of the game (and definitely not the eye-watering sums they splash out). Cesar's heroic double training sessions were for the World Cup, not for us - a place in the national side he knew he was guaranteed of ahead of Valenca's Diego Alves out of Scolari's conservative cowardice. | | | |
Julio Caesar on 14:18 - Aug 18 with 4508 views | simmo | Does anybody really believe that if he wanted to, if he really wanted to just play football at a decent level and for a good wage, he couldnt have done so? Are you saying there were no options available to him to go and play somewhere else? Because that is utter bollocks. He only went to Toronto towards the end of the season as the world cup was around the corner and he wanted some games under his belt, fck all to do with him being desperate to play 'amywhere'. It's not his fault that we are paying him a lot of money and he has every right to ask us to honour his contract, but don't give me all this bollocks about him not being able to find a club that would take him and play him. | |

Julio Caesar on 14:20 - Aug 18 with 4500 views | daveB | who was the club to take him and play him? No one came in for him so he had no options. Not really his fault that Redknapp went with Green last season rather than him. Not as if he refused to play for us | | | |

Bit of a difference between moving to Toronto permanently like Defoe has and taking a loan move & living in a hotel a few thousand miles from your family in order to play matches. Even if his double sessions were to get a World Cup place, whose fault would that be? Nobody made an offer to sign him, and Redknapp refused to even put him on the bench, so what other options did he have? | | | |

When Inter wanted rid of him, QPR were the only club Joorabchian could find for him, and when we wanted rid of him last summer, nobody made an offer for him, so yes, the facts are indeed in favour of being unable to find a new club. | | | |

How do you know? Plenty of reported interest last summer and January windows? I could just as easily guess that most clubs would make enquiries to his 'advisor' first and many wouldn't proceed beyond that once they heard his wage demands... | | | |

lots of reported interest but no actual bids for him otherwise he'd have gone. QPR were happy to pay his wages and let him go on loan so money was never an issue | | | |
Julio Caesar on 15:14 - Aug 18 with 2203 views | daveB |
not sure wages come into it as QPR were happy to pay his wages to get him in the shop window for a few months. Neither side come out of this too well but I don't think it's all down to Cesar. It looks like he's going to leave now without a pay off which would be a nice thing to do on his part | | | |
Julio Caesar on 15:42 - Aug 18 with 2167 views | daveB |
well if we are still paying his wages for a loan deal as we offered last season his wages wouldn't have put anyone off as they wouldn't be paying them | | | |
Julio Caesar on 16:30 - Aug 18 with 2123 views | NW5Hoop |
The bigger clubs haven't wanted him because he's way past his best. If he was still at the top of his game, then matching our wages wouldn't have been an issue. As for the actual interest … it was all paper talk. Never once did a club or a manager actually say they were interested. Which tends to back up Dave Mc's belief that there was never any serious interest. So now he's likely to go to one of Europe's weaker leagues, where the fact he's past his best doesn't matter so much. Let's face it: good players leave Portugal, not go there. | | | |
