...are you stupid? He already knows he's wanted by West Ham. It's been all over the transfer news, it's common knowledge that they are the team that made a bid that we rejected. Yet he still hasn't handed a transfer request in. You either pick your news selectively or you're just a complete idiot.
The point I was making about turning bids down is that A) it's been made clear that only unreasonable bids would have a chance of being accepted for our best players and B) it's impossible for a player to leave if noones bidding for them.
Bloody hell you spend a bit of money and you think you're already in the premier league, when the reality is that you probably won't make it because your team is full of overpaid premadonnas who now think they are too good for the league. What am I saying "now think", Schmeichel already thought he was too good. If any of your other players are anything like he is, I can see it's clearly rubbing off on the fans as well. You think you're way better than you actually are.
As for "any of our players would walk into the Leeds team", we already took the 2 players that would walk into our team off you. The rest are the kind of player that want more money than they are actually worth, which is the kind of player you attract when you throw money about like you have been doing. 10 million on transfers already and you're not even finished, with a 5 or 6 mill bid for Maynard expected to be accepted before the season starts? That's an obscene amount of money, and all it'll get you is players, agents and clubs trying to mug you off and succeeding.
