    That’s the thing. They needed about a 100m saving. They where at like 175m loss over 3 seasons and only 105m is allowed.

    So Paqueta and this lad from Marseille? I mean, that's CM and a young utility forward, which is in keeping with the Summer rumours so far. Suspect the Maddison bids may have been a call the bluff on Lyon perhaps?

    my thoughts exactly. Lucas wants to come, we want him.. we play like we don’t then table a take it or leave it offer.

    I reckon he will sign for £32-35m.

    bargain at that.

    It's wrong and silly really, but if we don't sign a player like Paqueta, I'll be disappointed.

    Ok I don't mean like Paqueta, I mean the only version there is.

    But with the squad we've now got, both actual new players and like-new players thanks to Eddie, I've got little to be disappointed about.

    I think we've been game playing to get Paqueta on the cheap. Looks like it could be working but time will tell

    I don't think that is a thing. Maybe in fantasy video games sure.

    It's highly disrespectful and poor form to send in fake bids to football clubs with no intention of buying the player, disrupting their business and the player.

    Yeah, I'm sure the Maddison bid is completely genuine. Can't see that he's a pawn in our attempt ro sign Paqueta. Whether we actually sign either of rhem remains to be seen, but don't think it's any kidology.

    Don’t mean it’s fake. I mean we moved on from Paqueta due to excessive valuation, then perhaps bidding for Maddison has them spooked so they review the amount they’re asking for.

    According to Sky Leicester want £60m for Maddison, might have said no way and gone off and hopefully buy those 2 lads, all rumours but would eat all my hats if it happened.

    That’s the dude I meant earlier. He’s the Romano equivalent for Spain/Portugal so very likely something in this. Looks like a good about.
