Yep, didn't doubt it, Ashley purposefully inflated the figures

Would love to know what we actually paid for Joelinton. Pretty sure his contract was added into the fee to get near £40m

So £1m and no replacement is ok?

I don't believe they were offering a million quid? I never even mentioned a replacement? 

 

Not really sure what you're getting at tbh

You know exactly what he is getting it. Selling him at an undervalue helps noone.

They offered 8 (apparently). I'd snap their hands off for anything close to 10

 

No idea where the ridiculous hostility has come from tbh :lol:

Because a lot of people are saying we should just sell him, regardless of the offer. Someone said “even his wages off the books would pay for a new RW” which is ridiculous.


we’re gonna be left with Murphy all season.

Nah, they will sign someone plus Gordon can 150% play on the right if needed. I expect someone will come in at RW regardless. It isn't exactly a dire situation if he stays but as @midds said, anything around 10M is fine.

Hoffenheim put out from their end that it was the most expensive sale they'd ever made, Firmino went to Liverpool for around £30m so it's still over that.

We have to make real money on Miggy if he’s to go. He’s worth a lot to the squad and club. 
 

I don’t blame Eddie and the club saying fuck off for under 15 at least at all.

Anything officially seen from accounts either end?

 

Was such a fishy transfer.

Has a MLS club ever bought a player for more than £12-15mil? Clearly Miggy doesn't fancy the desert, North Carolina would be perfect for him and his family, so let's shake hands on 10 and be done with it.

Anybody know the exact time their window closes.. I'm a bit impatient :lol:

We don't need to make big money. Anything we get is profit at this point because he's been here so long. We have to stop letting players run down their value to nothing. Take the fee and buy a long overdue replacement.

If he does get sold, it’s actually not ideal. We’d be going into our opening day fixture with one recognised RW, who some people also want to be sold.

Iirc Atlanta are due a piece of the pie from any sale as well.

My stance is this:

 

In an ordinary scenario, I'd want 15m for him. Despite what some would have you believe, he's not shit, he's actually good. He's just no longer at the level we need and he's now behind Murphy in the pecking order. We certainly shouldn't get rid of him for nothing.

 

However, Miggy clearly only wants to leave if the destination suits him and he looks to want to go back to the States. Therefore, because of what a servant he's been to the club, I'd allow him to leave for less money. I think it's probably best for all parties. I'd feel sorry for him hearing the numbskulls in SJP give him grief from the stands.

 

If we can make a compromise with an MLS side, we should do it.
