Rumours that we’re loaning out Vlachodimos We’re still after Trafford - he didn’t play yesterday due to illness Yet no signs of Dubz being sold?!
Still bizarre that at this stage we have not signed any players that actually improve the first 11. We can’t have a lot of money.
We do - hence why we’re bidding £65m for Guehi. We don’t have enough money though to go and buy 4/5 players
I don’t want us to spend that much on him. I think it sets a bad example. And we will be fleeced in the future.
A bad example? He’s an England international with ten years ahead of him. Our back 4 (Tino, Guehi, Botman, Hall) would be sorted for ten years
The fact that other clubs will see us as being weak in negotiations. We put in 4 bids and we have our pants around our ankles.
For 75million. Come on man. That’s a hell of a lot of money for anyone. 50m nope. 55m nah. 60m lol. 65m. You’re a teacher. 70m????
My point is we shouldn’t continue to bid like we have or other teams will see this as an opportunity. Stand strong and get top dollar from us. Clubs will invoke the Newcastle tax.
The issue is not the bidding - the issue is that palace are telling everyone. I’m sure most transfers are negotiated
And thats why we are bidding allegedly £65M for a centre back...because we don't have a lot of money to spend !!
I think we're being a bit knee jerk here. It's one game Remember tonali will be back and willock. We missed joelinton and willock massively last season. They were both massive in the 22-23 season. Tonali and v willock will add pace and energy to the midfield.
What's knee jerk ? The midfield lacks mobility and willock is required...that's what I said and you've agreed basically. You think I'm saying this based on one game? I'm not. People are stuck in 2023 ... it's gone.
