The are lots of reasons a transfer could be a failure. By spending over 70m pounds on Guehi, we are at the point of no return. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledGeordie Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 I’m pretty happy either way, if we bring him in great, if we get another player in who is a solid back up to Schar then great too. Either way we need another option there that’s plainly obvious and one with decent pace would be good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hudson Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 12 hours ago, Groundhog63 said: Disregarding the daft cunts here on Mitchell's case, already, there was a point on the coverage when I had a little moment of calm. We've had some proper frauds involved with this club over the years. Some rank useless bastards as well. Even some wankers, deliberately, working to undermine us. Wor Flags, rightly, offered a consideration to Amanda and Merhdad but they weren't football professionals. Shortly after Schar got sent off the camera span to Eales, Mitchell and Bunce. They kna the crack. We're in safe hands and they'll either get Guehi or not. I trust them regardless. Said the same thing pretty much in another thread. The added bonus in all this there here for the Kudos, not to make money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 5 hours ago, Zero said: we are paying a huge premium for the EPL experience, or in other words, to minimise the risk that Guehi is not as good as expected. So what if that really happens? “Ah, nice try. Good game. Move on”? Zero positivity, amirite? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 There's no way this Guehi deal puts us in PSR trouble. It might be the only deal we can do (without outgoings) and it might take us close but I don't think for a second we would put ourselves in that position again. Call myself Mr positivity pants though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone we spend upwards of £40m on we really need to be a success, avoid injury etc. So do we just bottle it, stick with what we've got and hang around that 7th to 10th area or do we take the risk, spend money on a player we have extensively scouted, is our top target and hope Eddie can coach an extra 25-50% out of them?

MagMal Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 It will be interesting to see if he plays today, "small muscle injury" - we are selling and protecting the money, "heads not right" - he's told palce to fuck off and wants to move. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, based solely on Douglas article where he said the club told him we will never allow ourselves to be in the same position as this summer (regarding needing to sell).

Whilst I think the fee palace want is outrageous this does put it into context. If Gomez is 45m then Guehi is up toward 60m, in the market. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we will end up paying a premium for Guelhi, but I really don't want players like Gomez who won't close the gap with clubs like Liverpool.

Mazzy Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 Few hours and we'll have a better idea of how advanced any bids/talks are. If Guehi actually starts you'd imagine we're still a way off with any agreement. Anything else and you'd think the deal has a good chance of getting done this week, especially if he's not even in the squad, that seems unlikely though.
