If there is any truth in that asking price then probably best to see if we can get Jackson, then get someone else to cover AFCON

[Sibierski]

Going higher than £40m is a massive risk because of the fuck all training / games he's done this summer.

 

At this point, it's not the goals you are looking at. It's how quick he can get up to speed and not suffer a set back. He could end up fucking off on International duty having not play any football / serious training, then go straight into full on match/training and break down  

[Pilko]

As if we've waited around all these weeks for him and they've suddenly stuck a £60m tag on  

 

We need Wilson's replacement in for Liverpool, doesn't look like it'll happen though. Bordering on negligence now, we've known Wilson will be away since about May.

[Menace]

I'm starting to believe it's going to be one of Wissa/Jackson and then probably someone else in January.

No emojis? It must be getting serious.

Tried to sign delap sesko pedro etc etc etc and they all knocked us back for super league clubs

Then the cunt we have got has went on strike

 

How is that shooting ourselves in the foot?

[Crimson Cardigan]

We may have to overpay at this stage. I’d rather overpay for the right guy than save 10m on some random punt. Unfortunately our usual option of just leaving it for now is not an option. The season hinges on a centre forward.

Where you been all summer? 

 

Wissa was never on our original list of targets! The plan to replace Wilson was…

 

A: Delap

B: Pedro

C: Ekitike

 

I've been here ye daft sod.  Obviously links to players after Wissa. Those players are long past being available and were also future Isak replacements.

[JT24]

Surely Wissa’s three year protected period is up and we can just ask him to rip up his contract and give him a nominal signing on bonus???

I wouldn’t want any of their current bomb squad either, but maybe you see something I don’t?

 

Man Utd under Ferguson were far greater than the sum of their parts, so you'd sign a Man Utd player and they'd look shite compared to when they played for Man Utd

 

Nowadays, Man Utd are far worse than the sum of their parts. So you could take one of their cast offs and turn them into a decent player with good coaching and being away from their toxic club culture

 

They've got some great young talent in that squad. It's the overpaid wasters and the younger ones with bad attitudes and massive egos that need to be avoided.

 

I believe McTominay has done well out in Italy, for example

Him or Jackson. Happy Days. What a club. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot. 

 

Jackson would be a decent addition at the right price.

[Menace]

Whats infuriating about all this is Delap is riding bench and would start weekly for us now ffs  

[OoOGazOoO]

Talks over weekend, £50m, now £60m.

 

We're not seyaling with Monopoly money here.

 

Some absolute melons making this stuff up as they go along.

I agree on McTominay, but let’s be honest , people on here had him down as worse than Longstaff.

 

wouldnt want Sancho, Garnacho, Rashford for character/style reasons, Hoiland is just not very good, and who else is there?

 

 

[Doctor Zaius]

They were always going to squeeze us for more given that it's absolutely obvious that we're waiting on Wissa and have nobody else in reserve.

Delap is clearly not a very bright lad.

Ok Neesy enjoy your IP ban. 

[HayDen Traces]

I wonder if we can structure a deal with a bit more guaranteed with add-ons based on if we requalify top 5 this season. Just to get somewhere in the vicinity of what they want

Looking like the preference is Wissa and Ramos if Isak leaves.

 

PSG are asking £50 million for Ramos apparently. With that in mind I'd probably go up to £45 million for Wissa and throw in some add-ons too.

 

Getting the pair for that combined outlay would be fine.

[Hanshithispantz]

He'll be worth £50m to us 

 

It's a well worn point, but the damage Isak has caused is incredible. 

[The Prophet]

Ramos is surely a non-starter?

I think so. Plus I don't think he'd work in our team.

Ramos has said he’s not leaving this season. I can’t see PSG forcing him when they don’t need the money and he’s a good bench option.

You would assume he'd be here already if he was interested and going for £50m like.
