I imagine in the same way most managers say he was cheap and expected to pay more to boost the player.
Brucey did it a lot.
The fact remains harry was the greatest centre half ever ever ever yet it was only Leicester in for him.

No one would have paid 26 million for harry last season.

Why not? I bet we accepted the first offer. Maguire was always capable of going to a much better team than Leicester. In fact I expect there’ll be a host of clubs lining up to sign him this Summer. He’ll go to a top club either in this country or abroad. Van Dijk has set the pricing standard for excellent centre halves.
 
Really strange few days signing good young players on long contracts.
I'm already a bit tipsy so bare with me but have we got buyers lined up

Imho we couldn't/didn't do that and got loans instead because of the big contracts of Dawson etc.
Even though we have less money we are now able to rebuild with more sensible contracts.
Maybe

Got a mate following PSV

"He's got plenty of potential. He's just never made it to the first team due to the high competition for places in it. I'm kinda sad to see him leave really"

I hope we've got a little catch here :emoticon-0137-clapp

Got to say the negative person in me is sat there saying 200k for a young lad.....he must be **** otherwise they'd not let him go.....hope i'm wrong!

Thing is, I remember feeling confident last season having seen Hector, Aina et al in early season and don't want to get myself all excited too soon :-S
 
Maybe they went for a lot more than the clubs are telling us?

Liverpool and Leicester fans are happy their owners did such good business and Hull City fans don't know how much the club has in its piggy bank.

It's a win win.

The club didn't tell us anything. The rumoured fees are just that, guesswork.

Chances are we sold them both for £10m.
 
With all the WC feel good factor going on I'd like to thank Lee Darnbrough on the recruitment so far, this doesn't extend as far as Ehab naturally, but some credit is due somewhere

Or maybe Nige gave Lee and Ehab a colouring book and while they were distracted got the job done.


In fairness to Darnbrough, these look like 4 good signings.
