Maybe they believe he is a 15m player not the 20m asked by Feyenoord? Maybe they lost the chance to haggle when they left negotiations until this point of the window & had few alternatives to use as leverage. Basically at this point if they think the striker is good enough to save off relegation, you take the punt. Negotiating several millions, in a very weak position, so you dont strengthen and potentially lose far more via relegation isn't massively logical to be fair.

Bimpy474 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 If you think he's a £15m player, you'll have to pay more to get him from the club who don't really want to sell him. It's not about that though is it, we simply had no intention of buying him, we knew the price and have just played out a PR exercise in misleading the fans and manager AGAIN.

They are undoubtedly masters of player valuation even ignoring the cost of another likely relegation due to our Championship squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember when we used to read about how furious the owners of all of these selling clubs would be when we were trying to buy their player? We used to have a pop at them for moving the goalposts and pissing about but it was us all along. We’re an absolute shambles off the pitch, lacking ambition, class and integrity. They deserve all the shit they’re going to get, 3 relegations in 9 years and the penny still hasn’t dropped for some. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRC Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 There is no doubt the club are run by idiots and that is 100% the problem. Teams know we are desperate and can push the price up if they want to keep their player knowing we won't pay it, when we really we shouldn't be. We should have a list with plenty of options that we have looked at for while. Not try and get some random Danish lad who looks to have had an average career, and loan a crock from Liverpool.

Jayson Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I think we can be fairly certain with Rafa Benitez that we had a decent list of options on the go for basically every single position. Clearly nothing is acted on & as mentioned in the other thread this has been purposeful from the start of the window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they believe he is a 15m player not the 20m asked by Feyenoord? Then they should only need to look at our current striker situation to realise that they're idiots. It's never ever about how much it's worth as part of the bigger picture. If you're dying of thirst, you pay whatever it costs for a glass of water, you don't die while patting yourself on the back for not being held to ransom. It's quite obviously a ransom situation, pay what you have to pay to survive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
