Not too fussed on Clyne - he's one of the few English players that I do rate and we've got him for a decent price.

He is someone who will come into the first team and improve us so I can see the value in signing him.

Nothing like Walker - Clyne is far better.
 
If you have got clyne at 10m, thats an absolute bargain imo. That is a paltry sum for a good rb nowadays. He's still relatively young and he offers going forward as well as being solid in general. That's before you consider he's english and you pay a premium.

Surprised no one else has snapped him up at that prices. Chelsea need to replace Ivanovic soon and United have Valancia whos not a rb and rafael who hasn't really been involved. City need more homegrown and zabaleta/sagna are getting on.

Things looking up for you guys with Clyne and Firmino especially since you guys were in the market for a rb (flanno perma injured and manquillo not fancied)

We'll have England's best two FBs playing for us once Flanno is fit too <diva>

Have to say, I'm impressed with the way we're conducting business - aggressive and not wasting time.

Quality of targets is still concerning but can't fault the conduct of business. <ok>

Amazing what happens when you take Rodgers and Ayre out of the equation.

There is still another nine weeks of the window left yet, plenty of time to sign Joey Barton and Charlie Austin <laugh>

Ayre went to South America to sign up Firmino didn't he?

By some accounts, he wasn't involved in the deal - just there for the photos etc. Mike Gordon and Fallows are running recruitment.

Ayre is leaving soon, either this summer or in Dec when his contract is up.
 
This photo would suggest Ayre was involved too...

No gaff - I'm aware he was in Chile. Like I said, I have reason to believe he's not involved in deals as much as he once was.

He's the CEO/MD - I would expect him to be in pictures.

Slightly different comments there Jimmy ;)
