Depends on the fee given his big injury I guess. For our opening bid it would likely have been great business. It seems like second bids are never accepted. But if they want 10m that seems a lot for one year left on his contract and a severe Achilles injury that he isn’t even fully back from
I mean what else do you call making a derisory offer for a player, not stumping up a reasonable amount up front because you claim you can’t afford it and then signing someone for double the fee It’s a discount version of Liverpool and Lavia
If you've just been made redundant, you cut your cloth accordingly and hold on to some savings until you get the good job again. If you get that good job again, you can go back to shopping in Waitrose. Until then, Sainsburys and Tesco will still provide.
I just hope there are stikers banging on the door demanding to speak to us. Someone is going to score an absolute hatful in this side
Unless we bend over for them there is not a chance he goes to Everton after they have just spent £35m on Beto. If they were to sign him it would have to be because we allowed him to leave on a loan which makes no business sense for us. The fact we sold Tella also means we can't really afford to lose Sulemana too.
Kamaldeen has asked to go, Saints refusing to accept less than £30m release clause. https://x.com/j_tanswell/status/1696851136404238662?s=46&t=f0hgNyKSvvOD5qjGLJhsXQ
Oh so there is a clause. Well that should hopefully simplify matters. Clearly no one has been able to meet it until now. So would need someone to make sales
Surely not. No reason for him to take a wage cut, burnt bridges and he has a coaching role at Brighton
You couldn't have maybe told us a couple of weeks ago, Kamaldeen? Bollocks, give him the Leeds treatment. If we keep on winning games then he'll soon come around. Then again, not sure if I want fair-weather players in the team any more.
He probably did, like the others probably had the conversation about “waiting for an acceptable bid” and whilst it materialised for JWP/Lavia/Livramento/Tella it hasn’t for him. With the deadline looming him, Adams, ABK, KWP will just want out now. This was always likely to happen with our stance on high fees. Doesn’t make our stance wrong, just this is a side effect of it
