Kanj Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 @cubarichosaid it best, no more bargain basement buys. We’re bidding real money and paying proper wages now to finally attract and incentivize talent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bonk Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Have to hope this is a shot in the arm to some of the current squad as well. Owners intent on improvement, has to have a knock on effect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HWTL Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Don't really know anything about him and got to be a risk for a player from an inferior league especially for that price, would have definitely prefer a proven Premier league cb but maybe none available. Preferably the type of player to sign in the summer but got to be an improvement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRD Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Good to know we have alternatives like Nico Schlotterbeck (similar mould, on verge of national team) in our consideration too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Available being the key word, not many around and rivals will be VERY unwilling to sell.We need someone who's playing regular also . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Think we'll probably go up to £40m inc addons, then look elsewhere. Hopefully Digne is sitting watching this thinking about his future as an offer goes in for him as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then would anyone notice the difference between before and after?

If it means we spend less in other positions then I'm not sure we should be breaking the bank for him tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are going to need alternatives, if Lille are keen to hold onto him despite needing the funds, they are probably just trying it on. We can up the bid to around £40m, after that it's just getting stupid. He's not the finished product, we need other options for when clubs see us coming and start whacking the asking prices up.

McCormick Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Doesn’t help that it’s well known that we want to settle our business early. Rich and desperate? We’re ripe for getting absolutely ripped off at this point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nortoon Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 30million has been quoted for a 31 year old Trippier. They'd be daft not to try and get more after seeing this. This is why i think some might have to wait until later in the window, even if we are desperate for reinforcements right away. I read somewhere that this "opens up for Milan". Like they are gonna pay 60. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 If Botman is their #1 CB, if it costs ten to fifteen more just go and get it done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Reet. £15m for Botman and they'll thank us for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack j Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Aye if the initial trippier payment is less then surely gives us more to play with for a centre half Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazzaschicken Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 (edited) 12 hours ago, McDog said: Well the coin to stay within FFP from what I read is 200M this window. Does he want to sign is the key. He can kick up a fuss if he thinks the offer is fair and clubs do not like having a pissed off player so we'll see. Yes but we don't have to answer to ffp for 3 years so that 200m doesn't mean anything we can spend whatever we want in reality. Hopefully they are lining up sponsors now thinking well look how much is incoming. Really starting to think that we are going to do a city/chelsea now and all the drama of rule changes etc to hold us back are just smoke and mirrors.
