Not for me Jeff, I'd be keeping Bruno in his influential role, going for a dedicated DM, and putting that money to use on Diaby or similar. I personally think we'd get more from Maddison & Almiron/Fraser, than we would from Diaby & Willock/Longstaff/Shelvey. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Fact it's taken this long points towards both parties talking. Feel cautiously optimistic about this. Next step with be meeting in the middle and an undisclosed fee. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously. We have nothing to go off with Diaby, could be a complete flop for all we would know. At least with Maddison we can base it on what he's already done in the league. I'd love him to sign, really think it would accelerate everything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 12 minutes ago, BonesJones said: The amount of goal contributions he could add to us would be massive and less of a risk than say a Diaby or a ST that ends up sat on the bench behind Wilson. Not a priority but to much of an improvement to pass up imo. It doesn't sit right with me like, spending all of that money to bolster an already decent AM position and taking funds away from spending on positions where we're starting Almiron/Fraser, and are an injury away from starting Chris Wood up front. I'm sure it'll be down to things that we're not aware of (Diaby not wanting to come regardless of our offer, for example) - but it just feels a bit weird.

Beth Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 13 minutes ago, madras said: Most deals are structured now aren't they, at least I'm lead to believe they are and we've just seen how easy it is to bring forward monies. I don't think it would be the structure like that, more the basic figure and the add ons. For example an extra 5mill if we win the Champs league compared to an extra 5mill if we get in to Europe type thing. That's down the back of the sofa money for our owners in the grand scheme of things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theregulars Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 I get why people want him but personally I can’t stand him, he’s an arsehole of a player, would find him difficult to root for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we move on to lesser targets you'll get those clubs saying well if you were going to pay £45m plus £5m for Maddison we want the same for player y. We'll get this done.

Fantail Breeze Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Think the next offer will be pivotal, either deal agreed or we’ll walk away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

See your point though. Do we need everyone to be like Almiron though? A player that will win us freekicks, and we have the players to regularly convert them. Yes please!
