Wolfcastle Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Club know better than me, maybe see longevity and progress in there that the layman can't, but to me the price was already a bit galling and the player not worth faffing around on so any additional faff I hope we've no time for.

Kimbo Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Big fan of the signing if we can do it, but I feel like doing business with English clubs is going to be too much hassle for us. There must be a LB equivalent out there abroad somewhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like home work wasn’t done on the sell on clause either. Going from £12m/£21m/£30m looks a poor negotiation to me. Looks sloppy, and now we look desperate, and they want to bend us over on the fee. I’d walk away and look at European targets. Better value, and no ? over a previous injury.

Geordie Boyo Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 (edited) I think that just speaks volumes to be honest. They want to keep him. It’s all psychological. They’re digging their feet in and unless we pay it they get what they want in him staying otherwise we move on to another target.

bhoywhonder Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 This guy really isn't worth all this fuss. He was a barely-present defender in a shite defense which struggled year on year then got relegated with many games to spare. We arent missing out on the next Maldini here. Fuck him, fuck southampton, next. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless £25m of that is contingent on us winning the quadruple for three successive seasons, I’d rather us go hunting for something more pragmatic financially.

Fuck him, fuck southampton, next. Not really accurate. He played pretty much every game as an 18/19 year old in the only season he's had, then got a bad injury. He was injured last year when they went down. Edited July 22, 2023 by ponsaelius Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0cafella Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 How long is left on his contract. The nature of that clause has him leaving on a free transfer written all over it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnes23 Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 We aren't paying 50m so there's nothing to worry about on that front. Hopefully 35m + some add-ons will see the deal done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
