    We’d want the dough upfront though, yeah?! Not £1m instalments over 25 years.

    I am actually surprised no one’s at least triggered the clause yet. Thought the second that was activated teams would be all over it.

    Seems strange to me, given clubs struggling to find suitable centre-backs, the price and his ability on the ball.

    Yep, it's an odd one. We need a CB as do loads of other teams, thought Utd would have been all over it. Strange that nobody is coming in for him...

    Can only think that he’s still asking for stupid wages which is putting clubs off.

    Maybe he won't consider teams that aren't in the Champions League?

    What's he on at Spurs, about £100k ? Would have though most clubs would be able to offer him more, but if he's asking for £300k or similar then yeah most clubs will tell him to foxtrot oscar.

    He's 30 now right ? So yes, reasonably you would expect that he'd want CL football, which both Arsenal and Utd can't offer next season.

    Don’t even think he’s on that. We offered to pay him £130k but rumours were that he wanted £180k. I think only about 3 or 4 CBs would be earning more than him if he got that wage.

    What the actual **** is going on with transfer fees these days ? <laugh>

    Okay, I get it that some players like Neymar, De Ligt, Mbappe are going to attract £100m+ fees. But it seems like everybody else is trying to rinse rude dollar for average ****e.

    It's like some fancy restaurant opens in town and charges £100 per head, so Smokey Joes greasy spoon down the road suddenly wants £28 for a Sausage sarnie with HP sauce.

    For some reason this made me chuckle - From Sky's Transfer Centre page:

    "After being linked with a move to Manchester United, we take a look at Sean Longstaff's goals for Blackpool whilst on loan from Newcastle during the 2017-18 season."

    £50m price tag and they can't even put together a video of his Premier League highlights <laugh>

    Because he played about five full games.

    He's not worth five million, let alone fifty.
