Im pleased that hes the sort of player we are interested in, but Im not entirely sure what they were hoping for by offering him a deal thats no better than the one being offered by the club hes just left?
As for Michalik, unless hes not our main target for CB (possibly McPake and Clancy?), I cant see why he still hasnt received an offer? Weve known about him as a potential target for what, a week or two now, so for him to have still not received some sort of offer is very strange. Hopefully they have someone else lined up but without a deal on the table, I wouldnt blame Michalik for looking elsewhere.
Maybe we're not actually interested in him. All we have to go on, after all, is tabloid speculation.Quote:

It could be money, it could be that he has other options available, or perhaps it's just another example that as a Club, Hibs are not as attractive as they once were.Quote:

Or, perhaps he wants to be nearer home.Quote:

Couldn't agree more. There are still too many fans who will take rumour as gospel in order to knock the club.Quote:

I read that as being a dig at the club because they weren't prepared to offer more! maybe I'm too cynicalQuote:

Anyone who thinks it's A should not take part in wage negotiations.
Even a moments thought should make it obvious that with basics and different kinds of bonus and incentives available the likliehood of two offers being the same are zilch.
A Director at D Utd told me that they were really worried they would lose him last year. At Christmas transfer window he was desperate to go home and they had an offer from a club nearer his hometown. His wife had a baby last year (summer time?) and he was desperate to get onto the continent to be nearer them. If memory is correct German teams were interested at the time.Quote:

I would be amazed if he remained in UK and I think no matter what offer was on the table from Hibs he would prefer to be on the continent.
How long is the tache man out of the country at the 'Euros'.
If he is not here you can bet there will be no deals done in his absence.
McPake would be a decent signing, but he was a stand-out in what was a very, VERY poor Hibs side. I'm not yet convinced that he merits a 3 year deal on 3k per week, especially when you factor in the injury problems he's had.
That's all a bit 3 years ago is it not?Quote:

It's not as if his injuries are reoccuring so nothing to worry about. Hibs MUST sign McPake. Bargain at 3k/wk imho.Quote:

His back injury will always recur, it did when with us and will do so every season.Quote:
