Weezertron Posted 21 hours ago Share Posted 21 hours ago Fuck that. I'd love the club to reduce the time they spend with clubs who negotiate in bad faith. Just go down to the next target. We looked like utter mugs with Guehi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

magorific Posted 21 hours ago Share Posted 21 hours ago Emegha, the Strasbourg striker, has been linked with us in France. Looks like our type of profile. He's very big but quick. Shades of Mateta about him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Negotiating in bad faith, multiple fake bids leaked to the press even after we'd walked, messing the player about, etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but to help them they’d have to make a profit (like we did) Anderson for £30m & Greek keeper reportedly was £20m they made £10m on the deal. How would selling Ramsay at a cut price and Barnes at an inflated fee help then unless they still made a profit. it only worked because the keeper was worth considerably less than Anderson & nowhere near £20m Edited 12 hours ago by gdm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So in essence a 16m profit first year. 4m negative the next 4 years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A June deal works slightly differently as you only take 1 12th of the annual amortisation so I'm effect get the full £20 million profit this year then £4m cost for the next 5 years Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor Swift Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago Guehi for £35m Sell Willock for £25m Ramsey for £40m Sell Barnes for £40m We would get a new CB and Joelinton’s replacement for two bench players. The extra money would go towards a GK and a RW. If Longstaff leaves then we’ll need another CM, hopefully someone young so Miley still gets his minutes.

BennyBlanco Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago I think all the talk of selling Barnes is madness. Without his goals and contributions this year we’d be nowhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonsays Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago 4 minutes ago, BennyBlanco said: I think all the talk of selling Barnes is madness. Without his goals and contributions this year we’d be nowhere. It's mad - seemingly the one area of the pitch we have genuine strength in depth and people want to sacrifice that. The suspension + injury of Gordon could have been a disaster if we didn't have Barnes to step in Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
