One can only imagine the wage demands if his fee is so low.

65k a week is the reported wages.
We don't really go for players on a downward spiral in their career but what a signing he would be.
Have we ever signed a player that's played for Bayern Munich?

best bit of this is the size of the bid. Makes WBA look a bit silly if they're after 20 m for Jay

Fairly sure Ian Helliwell was at Bayern when we brought him in.

Isn't £12 million the release clause in his contract?
And don't we pay bonuses now at the end of the season depending on our final position?
So maybe the fabled £35k per week is not necessarily the be all and end all.

Stoke fans think he was one of the few players who actually worked hard and put in 100% for the team.

Would prefer Joe Allen, but either would improve our starting 11

How desperate are you to sign 'names'?
You've got this far without any 'stars', so why? I know Rovers had some world class talent over the years, but under dyche, it doesn't appear necessary.

Because he is a very good player. I don’t care about names or where he’s played before. Improving the squad season on season is what we should aim for. He would improve the squad.

He doesn't track back....simple so he won't improve the squad.

Have to agree. Does not fit into dyches ethos at all.

The original thread title was 'Shaqiri £12m', hence all the other posts in the thread having that title.

Come on then, I will play along.
Who have Rovers had that was world class. You cold put forward Sheared but I'm sure he wasn't the best in the world at the time.

He was certainly as good as Harry Kane who's considered world class.

I'm not certain that if our world were playing another world, that they would pick Kane to play up front. Good player that he is though.
Depends on your interpretation of World class though.

Colin Hendry
Graeme le saux
Henning berg
Alan shearer
David Batty
Damien Duff(at his peak)
Stephanie henchoz
Tugay
Andy Cole
Craig Bellamy
Roque Santa Cruz
Benni McCarthy..
That's just the ones I can think of quickly.

Shearer was world class in my opinion. Maybe not as good as someone like the original Ronaldo, but you always have a few elite players that are above anyone else.

World class doesn't mean the worlds best, or Ronaldo and Messi would be the only 2 world class players around..
Suarez is world class, for example.

If we were to bring in Shaquiri, Rodriguez and Dawson, I would be delighted, and even some of the moaners on here would have to accept we were going places. Will it happen? Who knows.

World class meaning is to be, or among the best in the world.
Now Colin Hendry was good for a couple of years but World class? Come on.
Tugay was a cracking player but I don't think the big clubs were banging the door down for him while at Rovers?

All competed at the very top, along with the very best at the point in their career while at Rovers. That is my definition of world class.
Edit- and yes shaqiuri is world class IMO.. Not a Dyche type though.
