Sam urges Blues to up Tal bid
By Chris Stanton - Created on 18 Jan 2007
Sam Allardyce has urged Chelsea to come in with a renewed offer for his Bolton Wanderers defender Tal Ben Haim.
The Blues' bid to land Ben Haim appeared to hit a brick wall on Wednesday after The Trotters rejected an offer, reported to be in the region of £2million.
Jose Mourinho has so far refused to up his valuation of a player who has just six months remaining on his Bolton contract.
But Allardyce believes Mourinho could rue not pursuing a deal, with the Bolton boss of the opinion that the Israeli would shore up a recently susceptible Blues defence.
"He is a top player," insisted Allardyce.
"He will be a lot better when he goes to Chelsea than Jose thinks.
"But that won't happen until they match our terms.
"They could wait until the summer and get him on a free but it all depends on how much they need him.
"He is a good buy for them because he can play in the Champions League and FA Cup as well as the Premiership."
what a ****, first of he started out saying he wasn't going to let him go, he was not available according to him to no one, and decided to play hardball with chelsea, now chelsea told him to fuck of after biding up to 2 mill for a bolton defender who's available on bosman in the summer, what does the **** do then, goes on his knees and begging Jose to singn him, just only if he gives him a little more money...
