Saido Berahino stays at West Brom


Recommended Posts

the entire Berahino thing is bloody weird. Scored plenty last season yet this season barely ever starts and yet despite the manager by the looks of it not being terribly upset by the idea of him being sold the chairman is determined to keep him at the club when his value is likely to drop quickly.

Smells like a 'at least we tried' effort

 

Will people keep stopping with this shit.

 

We ARE trying because we don't want to get relegated. You would have to be a right idiot to think they are sitting around making "fake bids".

Not saying it's a fake bid but they've stated 30 million, a drop to 21 isn't really going to get the deal done to be honest.

Do it in the middle of the window then, not right in the end when it's likely to not accepted and you know that going in and the only reason to do it is make it look like you are trying.

 

I'm sorry but if they were serious but they wouldn't wait till the deadline for some one who is out of favour anyway.

They will never get 30m for him. They might get 25 from us but regardless it's got nothing to do with "we tried".

We have bid for him, at least once.

Remember when we were saying £20m+ for Cabaye? How did that work out? You must be new to the world of house prices too to think 'asking price' and 'selling price' arent necessarily the same thing

Most major signings tend to happen in the last few days of the window. There's nothing to say we haven't been putting in groundwork over the month but with time running out things are now coming to a head. It's not just us that do this.

Weird one, this. Ashley decides to pay top dollar now, for Berahino? That's the player they're choosing to spend that amount on? ???

Everyone but Joe Kinnear knew we should have got £20million+ for Cabaye though, hence why he was binned off not long after the transfer because Ashley was furious

 

If we had a competent D irector of Football he'd have gone for £20million+

This is a pile of balls tbh.... This transfer window is gonna kill or club tbh big money on average/shite footballers and I can tell you this now we are going down not one player we signed this transfer window is good enough to keep us up average players for ludicrous money... Shelvey isn't worth 12 million nor is Townsend and now 21 million for an average pre madonna cunt.... He's gonna be our record transfer like ???? Fuck off complete joke

The fees aren't particularly high considering the amount of money that's been thrown about the last few years, it's just noticeable because our squad has been neglected for years and we're spending it all now. Rather than staggered over many years to keep the squad fresh and capable, as we could and should have.

Exactly, Ross McCormack cost £11 million for a Championship club. It's just the going rate nowadays.

When/where have they stated 30million? just in case I've missed it.

Eh? Why would you put your top offer in the middle of the window? Makes sense for both sides to wait it out tbh

 

Only reason for West Brom not to is if they were determined to replace him if sold as he's a key player so they'd need to replace that. But hes not been for them this season. They're in no worse situation if they sell the lad, they'd be losing a disruptive influence supposedly.
