Wilson Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 I actually don't care if he (initially) signs for the 'wrong reasons'. One season in, he'll call it home. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubaricho Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 These are the kind of signings that make me happy that we aren’t/can’t just splashing 100m on players like Man U or Liverpool can. We get to watch these dudes, the Isak/Botman/Brunos of the world, develop at our club. It’s far more exciting than just buying the finished product.

Then wheeling and dealing for others and depending on sales Or we just go full Saudi and spend, spend, spend! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
timeEd32 Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 6 minutes ago, timeEd32 said: According to multiple places his current salary is £4m/year (gross, btw) or £77k/wk. Putting him on something like £150k/week with some bonuses seems about right. Reports that are significantly higher than that are almost certainly wrong. Adding to this -- there are some sources that put his salary quite a bit lower than this to the point that £150k / week would be closer to tripling his wages.

I've loved that about our big signings. Meanwhile there was hardly a queue for the likes of Popey and Burn; we just scouted really well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we did sign him a few weeks later. Better do the right thing. Pick up the phone and call all of your exes. "No I know we haven't spoken in ages... but...erm... it's... it's about Albert Luque..."

Willow Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Just flicked through 42 pages of this mad shit Would be fantastic if it happens and as said, if Ashworth's in Milan, that has to be a done deal.

timeEd32 Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Reactions to this are all over the place, ranging from "how did Newcastle pull this off" to this being an incredible waste of money for an average player. This may just be where I'm looking but Man United and Arsenal fans seem impressed, while Chelsea and Spurs supporters couldn't be more bitter.
