LRD Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Probably "We bid the 15m that Man U offered last summer." Nowt wrong, just a process of negotiation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

By not accepting it, they de facto reject it. Yeah I get that but I just can’t see those words anywhere in the article. I may still be pissed like.

Two centre-backs, a midfielder, a striker and a left-back remain on their wanted list. That will be a good window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty binary situation - if it isn’t accepted NUFC don’t get the player. Therefore another bid is required, meaning by default the former is rejected/superseded. Only out is if we leave it on the table - which given our predicament I wouldn’t play Lee Charnley ‘who blinks first’ shite with them.

mighty__mag Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Hope there's nothing in the Ross Barkley rumours. Possibly someone like Howe could get the best out of him, but, I've heard he's a bit of a troublesome character, wouldn't want that in a relegation battle.

Dokko Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 6 players in. Over half a team. No way we spend less than £100m this window. Could even be £150-200m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikon Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Lille are greedy cunts. Always asking for top money. To be fair if I was a fan of them I'd love it. Smart move from them as always. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Got to bear in mind that £30m is the cost of a good/decent PL player these days, it's not an excessive amount of money for most established PL clubs. The fact we consider it outrageous says more about how we've been run recently than the quality we're now looking at. We're now simply paying the going rate for players to improve us, the worrying thing is the number of players like this we actually need... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smart move from them as always. Spanish and French clubs alike are going to be asking astronomical fees when they see us coming. Still remember the hoops we had to jump through just to get Gutierrez here, and he turned out to be pretty mediocre in the end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everton need the cash to balance the books. Their new LB is coming in on pretence Digne is leaving for a fee. Chelsea loan off is probably last resort. Rafa will push a sale to us. 6 in this month and another 6 in the summer. Keep 5-6 of the best of the current lot and the Ashley nightmare is well behind us. From there on we buy big and sell big continuous improvement until the club is where the owners want it to be. Foundations being laid this month and it's going to be great.

STM Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 25m for Digne would be class. Rafa doing us a solid if we get him. We will have to play a longer transfer game with English clubs IMO. Nobody wants to strengthen us. Especially those clubs around us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
