Dunno about the 2nd one but the first was allegedly a quote from someone at Atlanta United saying they wouldn't loan him and "wouldn't transfer him for chump change" in regards to reports of our offer size.
good to know if he fails to sell this time it will definitely absolutely almost certainly somewhat kind of sort of probably not be the last straw for the rest of the fanbase.
You could understand being fooled once or twice, maybe even three times out of hopeful desperation. But if you're betting on anything positive to ever happen again then you just flat out haven't been paying attention.
