Is that the worst video of a football match in the history of the game?

Will Siggy sale be regared as one of the most stupidest in history. Spanish media now says Atletico Madrid, AC Milan, Juventus, Arsenal and Manchester United are interested in him.

Not at £7m it won't and believe we have a sell on clause too - those clubs wouldn't necessarily be interested if he was here still either.

I think Icelandic club Breiðablik got 1m of those 7. Nevermind, just think Reading should have held him for a longer time.

That must be something of a windfall for an Icelandic club.

Have just clicked onto Talksport to see this as their leading story

http://www.talksport.co.uk/sports-news/ ... trike-star

Manchester United have been linked with former Reading striker Gylfi Sigurdsson.
The 21-year-old only left the Royals for Bundesliga side Hoffenheim in the summer but four goals and a series of good performances have reportedly alerted the Premier League giants.
The Icelander struck twice for his country's Under-21 side against Scotland in October, securing his team a place in the European Championship in 2012, with United scouts reportedly in the crowd.
Sigurdsson left Reading for around £6million but has seen his value rise to nearer the £9m mark in just a matter of months, thanks to his form in Germany's top tier.
Arsenal have also been linked with the forward in the past but any interest Arsene Wenger may have shown has diminished, according to reports in the Spanish media.

Unless they only paid what they did as it was a full buy, or they could have gone £4m and allowed a BOC, surely.

PS is a whole Siggy watcvh somewhere on HNA?

Because of the size of fee Hoffenheim paid I wouldn't be surprised if there is no sell on clause.

Even if there is I think sell on clauses are normally based on percentage of profit on a resale so if they did get nine million for him and make a profit of two million then, even if we got say 20% of that, we wouldn't be receiving a fortune though it would be useful money.

Any sell on by the time the chairman makes his excuses to use it for the better of the club and gives us the crumbs of what's left would hardly be worth dicussing.

I hope he goes to United or Liverpool. He's very much a Steven Gerrard type player and both clubs would benefit from a play if his ability. One way or the other I want the boy playing in the Premiership.
