Transfer Rumours Saint Manolo! - Official

I hope he gets a medal because it will mean we won.

 

Right. And there's a woman called Mabel who served tea when Channon played here but she got a better offer from Marks and Spencer. She is waiting for her FA Cup winners medal.

What is this ****? Christ, the players who didn't play in the 1966 World Cup Final have only just been given medals and they were still England players come the final. They didn't suddenly switch allegiance. He's a West Ham player. If they win something he gets a medal. Otherwise he can go and screw himself. FFS

 

Bloody hell mate a bit angry?

I just think he played a part (even if small) in getting us there so far so he will get a medal if so. '66 isn't really relevant as it was completely different back then.

I'll hardly lose sleep if he doesn't.

 

Reward Fonte, For his long service as an ex Saints player. But it will be bitter sweet, Knowing he won't be the captain leading the team up those steps and ready to lift that trophy. So i smile at that., and what could of been.

 

Napoli want €18m fixed with add ons. So we are €2m out atm

 

I hope we get it done.

 

I'd rather we settle with that, Than the % on a future sale.

 

They want that as well.

Atm we have bid:
€16m + €4m add ons and 10%

They want:

€18m + €2m add ons and 10%

(All according to Di Marzio)

 

I'd probably just get it done tbh, though it's obviously not my money.

You shouldn't make a habit of over paying but there's times that it's worth it and this is one of those imo. One league position higher will make that up and I'd expect him to have a big enough impact for that.

 

Bloody Italians, Outlayed their price and now demanding more.

 

They're just taking the piss now.

 

They are taking the piss but good on them.

We are in a bind. Two top strikers out injured. Struggled for goals for months and a mere matter of hours until the window closes. They're playing the hand they've been given and we're playing the hand we were left with at the start of the season. Its going to cost us a lot more to buy a player because we are in the weakest bargaining position possible really.

Pay the premium. Get it done. reflect on another successful season.
Don't pay the premium, risk Long getting injured, get sucked into relegation territory, reflect on how we should have sorted this when we could,

 

Totally agree, I know it's not the way we do business, but haggling over a few million £ is pointless. It's not as if we can't afford it and we have a massive month for the club coming up, the only alternative is recalling Gallagher and hoping to hell that we don't suffer any more injuries.

 

My maths ain't great, but it looks like we've agreed a price
Just the structure of the deal. I'm sure this will be wrapped up over the weekend. Would have been nice to have him available sooner, but considering they wanted €25m to begin with, these negotiations are necessary

 

Got to get this over the line...Austin out for a while, Jay injured (don't know how badly)....that just leaves Long. He's not the most prolific of scorers and we have half a season to go.

 

Plus a cup final Fran, let's not forget that

 

Really.....I didn't know that.

 

Funny how Sims and Redmond seem to have been forgotten. But yeah, we are short up top. Get it done Les

 

Giving him a medal is complete nonesense.

 

If we win, I will be two delirious to care....and he did play in 2 rounds.
