You can blame the club for going down the pure Barclays route though, farcical when we know clubs will shithouse us every time we bid for a player. 
 

I get the need to remain upbeat and positive but the fact is we are a shambles with recruitment. One 1st team player brought in almost four windows. Thats not all on PSR I’m afraid. 

I mean possibly. I've said previously I'm surprised we aren't looking more on the continent, but I have to trust the club on that one for now.

Our famed scouting network really proving its worth this window.

It’s a fucking shambles. We operate effectively for three windows after PIF come in and get in some amazing players from abroad at under value and some players from our league that are steals. We then decide to abandon this strategy and only target players at their peak value in the premier league where there’s lots of competition for them. What the fuck is going on

Makes sense. 
 

They’ve lost their manager, captain and top scorer.  Lose Wissa and they suddenly look candidates for the drop.  That’s worth how much?

 

Wissa’s worth £50m to them.  

 

Oh don't have a problem with the price they want just saying we need to take a similar approach with Isak. Unless Liverpool pay what he's worth to us then we shouldn't budge, and with less and less viable options being available that number would be rising for me.

In isolation, don't think we've done loads wrong on this one. But in-line with the rest of the summer frustrating doesn't do it justice at this point.


This. Especially if we caught wind of this supposed agreement they had via his agent. How are we supposed to know they’ll then say £40m, £50m not for sale

at any price. 
 

But yeah. After all the others. You should

certainly be asking questions of how we target players and the whole negotiating process being not fit for purpose :lol: 

 

I suppose you could also argue they were always going to drive a hard bargain or not sell him at all after Mbuemo leaving.

Seriously I’m gunna stay off social media and any other news regarding the club for a week. Im getting angry on a decent Saturday when I should really be spending some time with my daughter and having a laugh. Bet when I come back next week fuck all will have happened like.

I’m going to put my neck on the line and say we will sign Wissa… I’m very very confident on this one.
 

They’re asking for £50m, but have a very unhappy player on their hands who won’t play for them again. We have “walked away / moved on” as a bargaining tactic, and in about a week a deal will all of a sudden be agreed for around £35m ish.

I don’t know why you guys insist on reacting like this to every tweet that gets put out like 😁

If we cant buy a striker due to other clubs failing to honour agreements or asking for an unreasonable fee, then we'll just have to bloody well do the same with the striker we have already on a three year deal.
