He also only cost Forest around £7m, did poorly and hardly played - ending up behind their second choice, Matz Sels, by the end. Shouldn't be costing us much.
He was only going to be sold as a nuclear option if we couldn't move others on. Wilson is expected to be sold this week. Because of sponsorship and CL money this next financial year allows us to massively improve the squad.
Liverpool may be keen, but they'll need to stump up if they really want him. Stop messing about with publicised £50m offers, hoping they unsettle the player enough to cause him to agitate. Hopefully we're saying "Sorry 'pool, we just sold Minteh for £33m and Anderson for £35m. £15m more than either of those for a player as important as Gordon is to us, just isn't going to cut it.".
They will develop over the remainder of the window. The Greek keeper is s short term squad upgrade. I wouldn't be surprised if we signed the Georgian keeper.
Am I right in saying that the fee for Anderson at 35m plus addons will be the highest we have ever received?
I was livid when I read it. Absolute madness to even consider it. The more worrying thing though was Gordon being open to it.
It would currently be a sizable step up AND to the club he's supported all his life. It's not surprising he would be open to the idea.
