Maybe this was the plan all along. Bring down the expectations and having us end up being satisfied even though we ended up selling our best player

Just don't see us getting a good deal on Watkins.

Him and Wissa skunds like a good combination though? Someone for now and someone for the future.

This good ye?

I know we haven't had the best summer so far, but Jesus Christ.

Ofcourse its going to be harder to negotiate with other teams. That has not been our problem so far, attracting the actual players has.

Because it makes our negotiation position harder if teams already know we have a sudden cash influx of £130m+. And also know just how desperate we are of replacing him. Right now they can think that if we don't get any ok deals we are just going to keep him.

Just want him gone myself at this point. Would just be so sick and tired of having him being speculated over for a whole year. Well I'm already tired of it, and its only been a month. Not a distraction the club needs.

Skeleton crew putting all their focus on getting a Isak replacement.

Right. So we had one of the worlds best striker in our team saying to us for a year that he was unhappy that we didn't offer him a new contract. And we just did nothing about it? Is that believable? Could Mitchell be that stupid?

If think you guys should consider the possibility that it's Eddie who wants him gone.

Agreed a deal dependant on us getting a replacement that is.

He could see in to the future could he? Our previous transfers has mostly been excellent. His comments never made any sense, unless he just meant that we had spent to much money.

The deal might already been agreed and they are trying to prepare the fans for his departure.

Lets go for Kane then.

As a £35m signing?

Was it? Didn't really get the impression that it was at the time. Not saying he came cheap, but he was one of the most promising young english players.

Don't really see any other club who would be willing to splash out a similar fee as we would.

They sold Hall to us for a reasonable fee after we finished 4th, dont their owner have a good relationship with the Saudis?

It's a signing that makes a lot of sense tbh. Coming around to it. Fits our system. Premier League provem(sort of). Has lots of potential Eddie can improve upon. Not many other strikers left out there. Chelsea don't need him. Just need to come to an agreement on the fee, which i'm sure would be possible.

Think the CM really needs to be top quality if we sell Isak. But anyways, depth is very important i itself.

It's not like we need one of, if not the the best striker in the league to compete at the top. We can easily improve the squad with Jackson and Wissa if we get improvements elsewhere on the pitch aswell.

Pretty sure thats the case.

I'm thinking this is exatly what you do if you know he is done at the club.

Can't see that would be something he would do if he wanted to integrate Isak back into the squad.
