Thiago Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 16 minutes ago, Rich said: £29M or so, if true. Interesting to see how Botman reacts to that if he does indeed want the move. Wonder how you say 'booting balls into the trees and kicking over training cones' in Dutch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRD Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 24 minutes ago, Willow said: Why? PIF have final say on transfers and Saudis and Iranians are arch rivals. I'm sure that there are better forwards out there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 As is pointed out above, one of our owners is Iranian. The horse has bolted already. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMLeazesender Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 I doubt being Irainian matters. In fact it probably helps PIF promote their approach to inclusion. Only know about him what I've read online but considering the transfer fee he sounds like a great squad addition to cover for injuries, play cup games etc. We need a lot of new players and they cant all be multi million pound signings if we want to stay in FFP rules.

LRD Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Still think we should go for higher caliber strikers with lack of options and Wilson's injury history. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-more Mag Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Because only one thing counts in this life! Get them to sign on the line which is dotted! A-B-C. A-always, B-be, C-closing. Always be closing! Always be closing!! A-I-D-A. Attention, interest, decision, action. Attention -- do I have your attention? Interest -- are you interested? I know you are because it's fuck or walk. You close or you hit the bricks! Decision -- have you made your decision for Christ?!! And action. A-I-D-A; get out there!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 I assume Lingard maybe isn't interested given our position and is holding out for West Ham or otherwise. Been really quiet considering a few weeks back he seemed to be the one the press were cramming down our throats about being the first through the door. Trippier might persuade him though.

Did a bit of rumour reading Looks like we are piggy in the middle. He seems to want back to West Ham, Manure won't let him go there as they are rivals and it could cost them Europe if he does well there again. He is out of contract in the summer and won't be re-signing. We might benefit though by getting him on loan late in in window if they don't come to an agreement with West Ham. Surely better getting some wages off the bill as they are losing him in the summer for nothing one way or another. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRD Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 On Schlotterbeck: “I’m not someone who really aspires to play in England or Spain. I have always wanted to play in the Bundesliga, preferably with the best team," Nico Schlotterbeck said in a recent Kicker interview. Aiming for Bayern.

McCormick Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Would love Schlotterbeck but think he’s being touted for Bayern isn’t he? Don’t see why he would jump ship to us right now rather than just wait for the inevitable Dortmund or Bayern bid in the summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
