What kind of logic is this, man.

Nah, you just missed the market changing. The market where, for example, other English players such as Andre Gray (£18.5m), Oxlade Chamberlain (£35m), Danny Drinkwater (£34m), Jordan Pickford (£25m), Michael Keane (£35m), Kyle Walker (£50m), John Stones (£50m) aren't worth what they're bought for either. Shelvey didn't become a £20m player, a £20m player became Shelvey. Either way he's certainly not a £12m player. £12m for even a relatively established English player now gets you someone like Sam Clucas, Will Hughes, or if you're lucky Jack Cork. Clucas and Hughes are better players than Shelvey - Cork I'm not so sure about. This is all irrelevant anyway, if Rafa is happy to get rid of him then we should do so. I doubt he would sanction a transfer if Shelvey was of any use.

Werw, when did Shelvey become a 20 million player, I must have missed that run of games. We overpaid for him, massively.

Selling Shelvey for 12 mil will mean we'll have to go forrin. Surely we can find a semi-decent box-to-box midfielder for somewhere near 15 mil.

Replacing Shelvey should be a piece of piss.

My problem is that we're looking to sell by the sounds of it, so our outlay will be fuck all, once again, yet Ashley is being portrayed as giving Benitez the funds to bring in 3 players.

Allardyce will dangle the carrot and when it's too late for us to switch targets he'll tell us we have no chance.

Wonder if he's going to be predominatly used as a left back / wing back, given Atsu's been one of our only positives so far this year. Hopefully signals the end of Manquillo, with Jesus Gamez, when fit, being the backup to Yedlin. Think I'd rather go with Ritchie as a Milner-esque wing back and stick 3 in the middle than see Manquillo ever again tbf. Murphy and Atsu in more central roles could be interesting. Means we could afford the shitty lack of attacking fret in the centre mid positions. Or maybe it's too early in the morning and I'm talking shit.

Salah just doesn't look at it.

Canny by Ings there.

Troy Deeney would be a good signing if we can keep hold of him for next season.

You wouldn't sell Colback to a relegation rival? Stop skitzing, man.

It's almost like he hasn't been utter shite over the last two years

Spurs and Southampton have to be among the dullest bunch of fans in the league.

He will be playing for us in League 1 in 5 years time.

Why did nobody put their fucking foot in for their third ffs

Fuck this

:lol: :lol:

Uh oh, spaghettio.

Would say that's harsh, but Martin comes across as a total cunt.

I despise the fat cunt more than most but can't help but think from his point of view he's done the right thing. Why should he accept £250 million if he thinks the club is valued at £350 million, especially when the rumored collective wealth of the group is 30 billion? I think this is his way of giving them an ultimatum, I just fear he's pissed them off to the point of no return. Fingers crossed there's other interested groups out there.

How do we go about cancelling our tickets?

That was my first thought. I'd be interested to hear her side of it all, not sure we will any time soon though.

So basically he's came back off his holiday and gave her an ultimatum. He really is an absolute cunt of a man.

Hahahahaha OMG :|
