Caulker tug of war...

[alanfullerqpr]

there is no way that we would be offering him 40k the other day and then twice as much today im sure the board would move on to the forest kid or even dawson if he wanted that.

Steven Caulker to #QPR is almost a done deal. Undisclosed fee. Will sign a 4-year deal, earning £80k a week. Could be a great signing by QPR

just stop! Re-spouting this nonsense wont make it happen.

[maidstone_hoop]

What a shite source....hardly a undisclosed fee too. We all know the release clause and 80 k a week do me a favour. Still very excited by this deal. Quality signing by the club. This lad is a England international in the making. For all those who doubt him wait to you watch him.

Haha. Don't think hitman believes it just sharing. Some lazy journo reports about embarrassing. Seen rio wages go from 35-40-60-80 grand all clueless

Very close to spitting my cuppa everywhere when I read that post saying he's on 80k a week. Have we signed Caulker or Cavani?

Also, as I've said numerous times, the move can't be made 'official' if the contract, as widely reported was signed after 5pm on Friday, as the FA is closed and signings can't be completed, hence the reason transfer windows never end on a weekend.

To be honest, I think it's a certainty he'll be confirmed tomorrow. If not, there have been a lot of porky pies doing the rounds since Friday!

Redknapp prefers to buy British players

QPR boss Harry Redknapp is hoping to add Cardiff skipper Steven Caulker to his squad, plus an unnamed England forward.

Redknapp insists he will always buy British players if possible.

"You can take chances with too many foreign players," he said.

"In the main I like players that have played in England and proved they can do it here rather than wait six months to see if they settle in – we haven't got six months.

"We are looking at another English striker so if I can get British players in the main then I will."

Deeney presumably?

Deeney presumably?

Hope so,but i can't help myself that i can see headlines "Crouch signs for QPR"

Can't believe people getting excited over Troy?! You lot are easily pleased!

[stainrodisalegend]

Not convinced by Troy either - just because our preference is for young British players doesn't mean they are ALL good. A strike rate of less than one in three in the lower leagues. Sunderland are spending 14m on a striker, West Brom 12m and West Ham 10m - that's not to say they will all turn out to be hits but these are the clubs we need to be competitive with next season. As things stand (long way to go in this window) we are a long way off their level.

[theblackmafia.]

If we end up with Troy, Charlie and Zamora we are flucked!

[norfolk ranger]

Hooper maybe?

[stainrodisalegend]

Hooper maybe?

Just a bit less f*cked....

We need a proven Prem or international goalscorer. Way too much expectation being placed on Charlie imo.
