Deluka Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Saw this posted by Australian FourFourTwo on Facebook, who knows how legitimate it actually is though: "Could Melbourne Heart be about to gazump Victory and secure the signature of Greek star Giorgos Karagounis for the next A-League season? We're hearing it's a definite possibility..." Would be great for every aspect of our football club (i.e. attendance, memberships, domestic and global publicity etc. etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharpy Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 This would be fucking awesome! Purely as he'll attract a crowd but also because Victory have fucked off Flores and we would've stolen their marquee haha! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as wow as the wow when someobody said Holt was better than Ambrosini.. but close.. Don't think we will get him, but if we do it would be brilliant..

Popular Post LR9 Posted July 3, 2013 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 (edited) I think you're right Kontra, and Im pretty sure it was Ambrosini that the club were so keen on, until news of his impending move to Fiorentina at the weekend. First calls for Kara on this forum were all they way back in Feb, and with his very impressive stint at Fulham people started to get pretty excited with the prospect of him coming down, until the visitors came in for him... Well, I say Fuck the mongs, they hijacked our Flores deal last season, and if we end up with Kara and they end up without Flores - jokes on them!!

Dylan Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Surely we have to sign him purely on the basis of stealing him from the mongs and then they are stuck with floges.

However, it's a sign that our other target/s for marquee are not going to happen. I know it's tough to compare players who play in different positions and who aren't the same age. But at this stage of their careers, at this point in time, Holt > Karagounis. Anyway, that's enough of that. I don't think we'll get him either, but it would be a good signing.

Murfy1 Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Surely we have to sign him purely on the basis of stealing him from the mongs and then they are stuck with floges. I heard a while ago on real good authority that Heart approached Karagounis before he went to Fulham. Apparently, then, he wanted too much money. So this wouldn't be the first time that we've been interested in Karagounis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heart of Melbourne Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Just read one of the Greek papers that was released just moments ago. Headline was that karagounis rejected a 1.6 mill offer from Australia. Having said that the paper is a panathinaikos paper. Pretty one eyed paper. Looking less likely.

Murfy1 Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 I thought the only issue with the victory move was cash? If we're now interested we've presumably upped the offer...How? Ray Gatt said on twitter a few hours ago that Victory can't make a move for Karagounis because they can get rid of their current international marquee, Flores: The mail that Heart are interested in Karagounis is on the mark. Victory desperate for him but can't move coz of Flores situation. Someone asking Gatt on twitter: "I thought they where going to move flores on? or they can't do that?" Ray Gatt: They are trying to move him on but no club wants to pay big money for Flores. He is on a contract so he is sitting tight. Who's absolutely certain of the details, but what Gatt says seems pretty plausible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingofhearts Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Shouldn pull out the offer to Garcia and Holt and use it on this bloke. We could get every greek in Victoria to follow us. Then we would be unstoppable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Like the sound of this. If we go into this, we need to succeed. As has been mentioned, our history of missing players other clubs have also been chasing has made us look second rate. We are also in need of another quality striker.

We won't be cracking 40,000 members or anything amazing like that, but we would easily get 15,000- 20,000 a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heart of Melbourne Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 If we do get Kara (unlikely) they would need to open the upper tier of aami park for the first home game. Imagine Kewell , karagounis and gol gol firing. This could change the clubs image. The publicity and focus would be on Melbourne Heart. Would love to stick it up those mongs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
