hoppaz Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 We are going to get 11 million Euros for a French winger at the end of the season. The best he mustered for us was against some lower division team. Here we have a player who was immense for us under Rafa and the club seemingly won't back our manager. This sort of behaviour by the board could risk Rafa walking and the wheels of promotion well and truely falling off. Now it might all be paper talk as Ashley has given the club a massive overdraft facility but come 1st Feb if no one has come in that could help us get promoted and do well in the Premier League then Ashley and Charnley et al must have their heads in the sand. It won't be the first time as they said we wouldn't get relegated either. Look how that turned out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjb Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Think if this deal doesn't go through, the media will jump on this Rafa-Ashley relationship and it'll be the story they run with for quite some time especially if results on the pitch don't go our away.

r0cafella Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I fear for Rafa if this doesn't happen, what happened to those assurances about the next 3 windows which were often discussed prior to him extending his deal? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sugoinufc Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I believe we can go up without any new signings. I prefer us to wait. I would be very sad if Mbemba leaves in a panic deal. Also i hope he is rated by Rafa. I would like to believe he has a huge potential...its just Clark being good/experienced and Lascelles captain....that makes it difficult for him.

I agree if it is but all the reports have suggested that he is keen to come - everything points to the fact that Ashley has a new crane to lift him back up and is trying to play football manager again - we will see but I will be very surprised if anyone comes in by tomorrow of any stature.

ExiledGeordie Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Give the amount of money to be made going up, if they pull out over what's being mentioned I think it does signal the beginning of more real issues at the club with Ashley. Definitely worrying stuff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Haggling over a couple of million quid, pfft, its fuck all*. Surely they'll reach a compromise and it'll get done. Putting him in the side for the remaining games virtually seals promotion. Bite the bullet, pay the money and get him out in the park, it's a huge month. *relatively speaking Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was keen to come why would we not just pay the £13m and get the deal done? If there's a loan fee which we don't want to pay then that would suggest it's Townsend that wants it to be a loan deal initially. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
huss9 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 fuck this shit. lets take a leaf out of that cunt Levy's book. offer them a straight £16m over 4 years, but then sell him after just 2. fat sam only gets £8m. ha ha you fat cunt.
