Transfer Rumours Summer Transfer window

You're completely, 100% right so not arguing with what you're saying.

But every deal we've actually done this window has been quick and decisive, or at least its seemed it once its become public.

Every deal that's become in any way "protracted" beyond even a single day after initially breaking (which I know is no time at all), hasn't happened.

So I get the nervousness about things not clicking into place quickly - even if they're irrational.

 

Ekwah Absolute ****house that lad. Lazy twat

 

Actually feel canny now that NEOM are out of the race we can compete everywhere else

 

I wonder if the reason neither club have announced Ekwah is because the lazy ****er hasn't even attended St Etienne to sign his new contract.

 

he had a great season Stat wise last season so I believe asse triggered their buy clause as they think they will be able to sell him on at a profit

 

Funny how they’ve pulled out because they don’t see value thou

 

I'm not sure that latest update is a bad thing? is it not obvious he will go to the highest bidder

 

if they are wanting 15-20m we will not pay that for a 32-year-old, and as you say if he has other offers, they will probably be better than a newly promoted team.

 

Not that I've ever been involved in any,but I imagine that very few of these transfer deals are the same and I can see that a deal involving an experienced,international player who's 32 years old would be markedly different from one involving a 19 year old prospect.And also with the selling club....they may or may not have an oven ready replacement,and,despite having agreed terms,may not want to do it just yet.

 

Sounds to me that we just have to convince him now.

 

It's not necessarily bad, no. I wouldn't say its positive either. Just kinda neutral.

 

You're absolutely right, so not saying for one second that I agree the deal should be done by now. Just that I understand that nervousness when you look at the cadence of all our other signings this window which have been unusually "quick" once linked.

 

They've ruled out NEOM entirely and said we are a clear option. I'm not convinced we can't offer a good wage for him

 

we also need to agree a fee which no one has yet

 

My instinct is he gets a pay rise and stays at Leverkusen

 

We can compete with most clubs that aren’t in Saudi for these players

 

We do mate, but I’d say if Neom are out of the running as they wouldn’t offer what Leverkusen wanted - we might be happy to give them what they want.

 

I don't think Leverkusen will be offering him a new deal so that's out of the question.

 

You and Cam are the least patient people on here

 

Eh? I'm saying I understand why somebody else is being impatient. I've not said anything about this one.

I literally said the guy was right for saying we need to be patient.

Did you even read the post?
