Matej Vydra

[DJ NOBO]

was absolute gash for reading recently too.

Indeed. His inept performances generated an almost unnatural level of hatred from reading fans.

His time has long since gone and he's expensive.

Watford want £10m allegedly

 

[wellquickwoody]

Oh the irony

Jeez the school holidays drag on these days......

He's 24

He was playing at Reading, wouldn't you feel more than a little deflated as well?

It's a miracle he could bring himself to step on the pitch without weeping.

I think the fact most of the lyrics in that song are not actually ironic is quite... ironic...

No! No giving extra credit to that song!

It is for this reason that Derby would be a bad move for the player, in the same way that Pritchard moving to Norwich was a bad move.

There's too many players looking for the pay cheque rather than game time.

Agreed, I would love to see Vydra here but not for that cost. He will choose the money as did Pritchard.

They aren't getting that, actually you never know when Derby are around I guess. Especially considering they haven't brought anyone in so far?

The Argus quoted Vydra's agent as saying the player chose Reading over the Albion partly because they both believed the Albion had enough strikers in Hemed, Zamora and Baldock and that the player wanted game time.

Maybe he got the game time at Reading and now it's a case of "show me the money"?

The bottom line is we need that pacy striker and it's almost impossible to do it on the cheap.

 

[Murray 17]

We will never be able to compete on wages!

I don't think it's a case of 'can't compete' - think it's more likely that we 'won't' compete for various reasons.

Well if he wants game time his signature for the Albion is guaranteed against that of Derby Shirley?

Having been at their stadium on Saturday, I was under the impression they didn't have any fans.

 

[bhanutz]

Why? They don't have parachute payments.

Because they pay wages that are way above our wage structure....so I believe.

Is it because we're vying for a spanish poker of playoff defeats?

In seriousness, I understand the reasons. It doesn't make it easy accepting them though when other clubs are able to manage squads effectively with large wage discrepancies and/or break the rules with little to no recoil.

Not so sure many manage squads effectively...Derby the last couple of years..Forest...Now look at Sheff Wed..Didnt go down too well with their star player!

If he wants game time I'm pretty certain he'd get it with us and you're right, quality strikers are not cheap. The key is whether last season was just an abberation (understandable, it was Reading after all) and whether he'd fit in with the group or just be a billy-big-bollocks. Jiri might be quite important in terms of helping him to settle in. I think we should go for it. We were allegedly prepared to spend big to get Pritchard in, Vydra would be an even better investment in my humble opinion.

Oh I agree, and find it very frustrating too!

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Get Vydra in QUICK before we piss money up the wall on the blockhead that is Nicklas Bendtner.

 

[Marshy]

7 million is the rumoured bid, it's a lot of dough..

 

[portslade seagull]

7 million is the rumoured bid, it's a lot of dough..

For whom

 

[TSB]
