Tbh this is a bit of a concern for me even if we get him... will his heart be in it? Hope he doesn't lose his love of the game and just "go through the motions" after being forced to leave the club he loves...
I did have a slight worry about that but then he's only been there one season and started 13 games, he loves the club but has been a downright professional everywhere else so I would have faith in the lad.
 
Mikautadze is a very very good player he’d be out of our reach entirely if Lyon weren’t forced to sell. There will be many clubs getting involved soon I just hope we’ve beat them to the punch
Don’t think that’s possible. Unless Roma have cash flow issues, agents mean that isn’t really a thing.
 
I might get pelters but I think Mikautadze is probably beyond our capabilities at this juncture, we got Enzo because of RLB and Diarra is a young player still developing his game, Mikautadze has played European football now and unless the financial package he gets significantly trumps what Roma or others will offer him, I don't see him coming here, I trust the club know what they're doing however and perhaps they're privy to some external factor we're not fully aware of.

Galatasaray and Fenerbahce are keen on Georges Mikautadze in recent hours. Both clubs absolutely determined to sign the striker

Roma and Sunderland are interested

no firm offer has yet reached OL

You’re probably right but I rate our ambition to try, hopefully means our 2nd and 3rd choices are of a very high calibre too

completely agree. always felt unlikely to me. but I like that we're trying.

Even though I'm not the biggest fans of loans (think they caused us a huge problem last time in the prem as we'd lose key players for no fees at the end of the season), I still think there's potential for a couple of really top signings for us. Lower fees for PSR purposes with options to buy if needed.

Not something I'd want us to do long term but for year 1 in the prem, I think we can get a couple of quality additions to help us stay up.

This reads to me that the club think it would be too hard a deal to pull off

The fact we’ve chased abline for so long intrigues me, never watched him but clearly someone we massively rate if we’ve gone for him at both levels

Roma aren’t that massive of a club.

They are perceived a way internationally as Rome is the capital.

They’ve only won 3 titles, they’ve rarely been a big player.

Nowhere near the Milan clubs and Juve.

Won a bunch of cups and well supported but you’d expect that in a city that size.

Look I've got no idea who this Jimmy is and had never even heard of him until 2-3 days ago but he seemed pretty adamant the club really want Mikautadze didn't he?

Not saying we should all believe everyone on the internet. Like I say I've never followed him.
