Optimistic Nut Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 There's hardly a rush of clubs bidding the €10m so can't really blame us for holding tight. I think they'll blink before we do on this one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 This is what I was getting at regarding the apparent bid for Morrison. If we really want this lad, use that money to make sure we get him rather than gambling on a tosser in a position we don't even need. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Interesting that his agent is apparently in Lyon tomorrow to try and take things forward, knowing that there's still a difference in fees. Wonder if it could be something like him waiving the player's "loyalty" bonus or something? They can be a high 6-figure sum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To have two good full backs would be the stuff of dreams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colocho Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Still not convinced we are remotely interested. Most probably a smokescreen spread by the club-controlled local media, but £8.5m would be a great price for the player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would bet good money this isn't happening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have a gauge on what french media outlets are respectable? I would be guessing at RMC and L'equipe, but the rest seem hit and miss. Le Parisien could be compared to the Metro. Right of centre (in my opinion), written for the masses and full of shite about 'celebrities'. Transfer stories are about as reliable as the Metro's too.... Le Monde and Le Figaro have good sport columns. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 It also carries direct quotes from the agent so pisses on Metro straight away...then again this is a smokescreen released to our local press of course by the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we really want this lad, use that money to make sure we get him rather than gambling on a tosser in a position we don't even need. We'll not see it like that though. The way we'll see this deal is probably more along the lines of (Potential Profit - €8m) v (Potential Profit - €10m) as opposed to (Transfer Budget - €8m) v (Transfer Budget - €10m).

Nobody Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 This is very typical of us under Ashley isn't it? Offer a decent amount, but one that's too low by a couple of million and then be too stubborn to stump up with the extra money to meet the actual valuation of a player.
