Yeah, Lawrenson trying to be too clever there. Manish (or the BBC sources) obviously think it's only 4.5m. If that's the case...why would Bruce say that they're close to sealing Wigan's biggest ever transfer (in terms of money)? Their current biggest transfer record is Heseky for around 5m. (Manish mentioned that to Lawrenson)
So that's why Lawrenson obviously ruled out n'zogbia. nah, it's just that you got the price tag wrong, mate.
