Increasing the amount of safe standing is such an easy win for atmos creation and positive vibes I can’t think of a reason why the too brass would be against it, other than pissing off some season ticket holding limpets who would refuse to either stand or move

We won’t be spending 70 million on Semenyo, so I wouldn’t worry.

I guess it depends if the club thinks it can find value abroad, as it did with Botman, Bruno, etc.

Tore us apart when we played them in the CL.

They clearly think it’s worth the premium to mitigate any risk, trouble is you could pay 70 million for Semenyo and not convinced he wouldn’t end up looking a big awkward clumsy winger on the bigger stage.

Play stopped yet again.

Especially when virtually all of our foreign-based signings under Eddie have been a resounding success.

Because they won't sell him at that price, and Bournemouth's whole model is based on being a selling club.

Some of these prices being reported for the likes of Kudus, Elanga and Semenyo are insane. And yet, if the journos are to be believed, we seem intent on shopping in the most expensive market in the world which is the Premier League, despite being severely constrained by PSR. It's madness.

Econemy is bewming, marra.

Goal Auckland.

Is the Sheepfolds the greatest entertainment venue the world has ever seen like they claim, boosting the Sunderland economy you’ll be lauded on RTG providing you didn’t lower the tone wearing a barcode top?

Ernest Nuamah

If and hopefully when he signs that extension I'll worry about any release clause.

They don't need to sell him, why not ask for a ridiculous figure?

Yeah that’s absolutely ridiculous 😂

That's probably the point.

70m for Semenyo ffs. Bournemouth are having a laugh with that one. I seriously doubt anyone would be foolish enough to pay that kind of money for Semenyo.

What makes it worse is they'll have no self awareness around the fact that the way they treated Trent will have affected how some players see them too, particularly if they ultimately see themself at a true European Giant at some point.

Semenyo’s a non starter and would rather we took a chance on the lad from Monaco instead of Kudus.

I’m sure the mackems will be hoping for some lifelong bondage with them.

Fofana is their best player

We can finally sign Tagliafico

Fofana? Or will Weyland-Yuchelsea continue their Fofana-Sarr fetish and try and sign another one.
