I swear if we chase Guehi for a year only to lose him to Liverpool who then taken Isak off us as well

I'd sue Mitchell for his years wages

So we're at the point in the summer whereby we're not only inventing alternative realities but also getting annoyed by said invented alternative realities too?

It's the posting of ones inner fears and then ending the post with, "i hope im wrong", which is the biggest giveaway.

To be fair it's pretty infuriating that we've let Liverpool swoop in and take Isak, Livramento, Guehi and Pedro from us all in one window, especially after we only signed Guehi and Pedro next month.

And Wilson gets a 5 year contract extension on higher wages  

 

Saying as we're going to miss out on everyone, and our rivals will blow us out the wonder, I think we should look to bring back Jeff Hendrick on pay-as-you-play basis to improve squad depth :fwap:

Let’s have some positivity. We all knew July was more realistic for the timing of our business other than a cheeky PSR raid on Villa or similar - which doesn’t seem likely.  The clubs who have done business so far have the power to do so for huge fees and wages.  Most deals mind have been via release clauses.  Nothing you can do when the player decides to join the club in question ala Cunha to Man Utd.  We’re going to get business done and it will be exciting, there will be a firm lsak is not leaving this summer briefing to Hope et al and in 3-4 weeks and things are going to be looking very much up.

Crystal Palace said we were willing to pay £60m for MG. Not sure we were anywhere near that in reality. It’s been said numerous times before EH went as far as going on record that the numbers being mentioned weren’t close.

 

So if we bid £40m+£5m for MG what is your thoughts on VH’s valuation?

I'd think about the same, maybe less, maybe a bit more. Pace brings price up more than other attributes. Doesn't have the pace to be an all round top class CB. But next to a Van Djik for example, or if VH is your no.1 CB and your 2 is has recovery pace, he certainly has what it takes to be integral to a top defence and a top tier distributor of the ball. Think the takeaway is Brighton, Forest, and Bournemouth have signed 4 center backs for around what we were supposedly willing to pay for Guehi. And everybody knew about Milkenovic, 12mil was a steal. Given Mitchell was there, you'd have hoped we knew of Hjuisen. Either way, Guehi's can be gotten for far less and with coaching great defenders with average pace can be found young.

Our behaviour last August suggested that we had capacity for 1 signing - at the right price.

 

we since sold Almiron and Kelly so might have a little more to stretch, but we will have a more flexible budget on 1st July.

 

meanwhile Burnley have to sell this month. They will be holding out to sell someone else other than Trafford, or that someone else comes in to start a bidding war. the closer it gets to July the more likely they are going to have to drop their price for Trafford. We are potentially going to have a great deal here.

Playing devils advocate, many clubs manage to sign players with contracts that become effective on a given future date of their choosing. What prevents us?
 

We hear we’ll shop in July but doesn’t that feel like we don’t know who we’re after? Wouldn’t you just approach a players agent and gauge their interest, if interested agree terms, sound out his club and get a deal done?

 

This waiting later in the window talk to see which players are left after the big boys are done or who’s desperate to sell is akin to turning up at the supermarket at the end of the day and waiting for the reductions, do we really operate like that?

How do we know that we haven't?

I don’t, just putting some thoughts down based on the us waiting till later in the window comments. Just spitballing.
