Good news - but we need to go one step further and sign him up. Otherwise, once relegated we will be in a weak position.
Why would they delay in announcing it? You'd think they'd want to rush any obvious good news out as soon as possible...
Pre the Belgian occupation, I always knew if the u18s or u21s had lost because no report would appear on the OS until a day or three later, whereas if they won it would appear within hours. Now it is all random.
Few reasons. Sinister super says they will say come 10am tomorrow, the failure of not getting 1,2,3 players signed were due to agreeing this contract. It will go some way to placating sections of the fans. Super sinister super says the journo has jumped the gun and it's not true.
SLP say he has now signed. He had all the leverage. I'm sure he got a bit more money with a reasonable buy out.
If he goes to Arsenal there will be a considerable amount of pressure due to the similarities in his rise like Ian Wright. The press have already picked up on it.
