Ornstein mentioned that the mooted deal was meant to be dcl @mid to high 30’s with Minteh at low to mid 30’s. 

Absolutely mental price for someone in the last year of his deal.

I’m on the bus with those who said it was overinflated and we got cold feet because the Cartel / EPL Narks started squealing. Possibility we revisit this I reckon.

That’s how I read what he said too. That being said as things stand the PL had no rules covering these kind of deals as fas as I’m aware.

As much as I dislike myself for saying this but the proposed nature of the deal means inflated prices make sense for both parties.

If so, I wonder why it fell apart.

I think it’s covered under their generic catch-all rule of “acting in good faith”. Same one ironically we could use to nail Ashworth to the cross for his email leaks to Ineos Utd.

Even more so if we could use it to inflate “Fair Market Value” for a Wilson sale to Saudi.

I very much doubt it as it’s impossible to prove we weren’t. Minteh is a hot young prospect with multiple suitors and DCL is a player we’ve been linked with for awhile. 
 

@SUPERTOON I wonder if DCL’s demand were the block as he’s on his last year and might be looking for a big final payday elsewhere.

I wonder how many clubs would fail the acting in good faith test over the years?

Us mainly.

Need to can the fuck out of any further discussions about DCL now that Minteh is off to Brighton. Leave Everton to get themselves out of their own hole

Close it.

Burn it. Then salt the earth so it never grows back.

Scorched 🌍 policy. Hope we see the last of this now we don’t have the begging bowl out.
