LFEE Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 1 minute ago, Manxst said: Or get told by the player that he’ll refuse to join the team offering the higher amount, so forces his club to eventually accept one of the lower offers. The players hold the power- you can’t throw money at clubs and expect the higher offer to be the winning bid these days. Exactly. Best bidding £30m and giving the £5m to the player or agent.

The Prophet Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 According to some of the Chelsea journos, Digne has made it clear that he wants to move there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Not a shock if he wants the Chelsea move, hopefully we have a few targets we can move on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 (edited) Nice having some actual trust in the process. If Botman deal doesn't work, meh, move on swiftly. Sounds like we have the finance and drive to make a deal work. Also nice seeing us target ball playing centre backs.

STM Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 If we can steal Digne from under the noses of Chelsea and West Ham, that will be equally as impressive for me. Chelsea is a big pull but will they want to outlay 25m on a squad player. Rumour is they want a loan but Everton won't do that. West Ham are an attractive prospect and would probably pay the fee to get him but surely we could gazump their wages if needed? This is why signing Trippier is so key. Digne will be looking thinking, "I will have some of that," or whatever the French say. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Unless Cresswell is out long term the West Ham link doesn’t make much sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awaymag Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 I think Im addicted to the transfer window again. Haven't even got Trippier in a toon shirt with Howe and Im already salivating for the next transfer hit. Hopefully will get my fix tomorrow! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Digne and Trippier are obviously class & big upgrades but hear me out.... I'll still be very nervous if we go into Watford (H) without fixing our 2/3 clearest priorities. Don't think we can physically put a ball in a net without a new striker Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think we can physically put a ball in a net without a new striker The importance on strong fullbacks in the modern game is vital, just look at the top clubs, they all are very strong in these areas. A fair amount of goals and chances are created by fullbacks, granted you need someone to finish those chances but getting the fullbacks sorted first is a good choice.
