“We bid £6” ”No, it’s £6.50” ”We refuse to pay this “Saudi Tax” fee!”

They might not accept 50% but they might accept 60%. At the end of the day they will need to buy a replacement. £35-45m will make that a lot easier than £0.

The media was always the worst part about Ange. Said from the start that their obsession with his casual nature would be what pisses me off rather than the casual nature itself. And then the constant aim of getting a rise from him once he started to crack, whether he didn't help himself or not. Classic build them up to knock them down cunt of an profession.

I'd be wanting atleast 20 million for Longstaff if this is the way teams value there players he's only had one good season in the championship and they want 40 million. 😂

Was going to use a similar analogy myself. I do wonder if some posters have ever bought a house let alone one in a chain Unless you can afford to pay over the odds or one of the biggest salary paying clubs then transfer windows will always be hard going forward when looking for players that fit our remit and improve the 1st team greatly.

That's why managers and boards are often singing from different hymn sheets. It was Eddie who has asked for the deals to be done quickly, but the players he wants are usually overpriced, so with PSR tying one hand behind our backs, unfortunately we have no choice but to haggle the price down. Which means it will drag on longer than Howe would like.

Ditto.

Everything we do is tbf.

Who struggled when he was in the prem.

£40M for essentially a Championship goalkeeper

Never know, he might get the Bayern job off the back of it...

Such a stack of cunts are City. Now hoarding youngsters to palm off to other members of their football group. Them and Chelsea are football cancer.

Same season I’m referring to. Tonali’s removal changed results and our defensive cover from a midfield perspective.

Yep that’s the feeling I’ve got as well. Sounds like a very slow process tbh.

Doubt that tbh, pretty sure i remember reading we focus on one at a time.

Its better for them to get a good deal early so they can find a replacement.

Isn't that what he tried to do with both Fulham and Bournemouth previously?

If by 'effort' you mean multi browser/shared account details/continuous refreshing of resale etc, then I think those in the data room and box office are more likely to flag your account and suspend/ban you than give you any kind off accreditation.

That's a positive comment.

They shouldn’t, no. But I reckon they might.

They won’t be doing that this season. Unless Parker is a fool just like Kompany.

Yeh i'm not sure of the costs and valuations. But I don't think Palace will accept 50% out of desperation. That doesn't tend to happen anymore unless the player kicks up a fuss and Guehi won't for us. Therefore, I don't think a deal is that much easier to make this summer because of the contract situation unless we spend close to the asking price.

£128,205.13/in. apart!

They play it out from the back. That’s their style. So I’m not sure they see Pope as the right fit.
