    That's not actually what was ever said by anyone with any credibility tbh.

    Maybe because of a bad interpreter he hasn’t realised he’d be joining a top half side

    Yeah, that report is very strong aint it. If he had no intention of joining us from day one, we wouldn't have been so advanced. Things might have changed, but I doubt its what theyre saying given weve just made an absolute splash in the market.

    Think that is the point he is making. It was said but turned out to be bollocks so might be again!

    As others have said would be surprised the club even bidding if he didn't want to join! I know its not how it should be done but clubs sound players out these days and have a package agreed before they really start bidding!

    tbf it came out in the QnA that the deal had taken a month to finalise, plus Xhaka himself said, "it was a long time of waiting, but I'm hear now", that indicates that he's been waiting for the green light. I still think it's class that he only wanted to come here aswell.

    I just wasn't sure as that statement wasn't clear enough for me what what he was wanting.

    Well he mustn't rate himself if he doesn't think he'll improve us.

    At the prices being talked about for that deal, I’m glad tbh. Can’t be paying that much for a kid with a year on his deal.

    Would you not be pissed off all the time that word and predicted texts autocorrects your first name?

    To be honest, none of these rumours/reports/responses mean a thing do they, if so they're fleeting.

    It's all good fun but, in reality, the media are being manipulated much more than they're reporting 'found' information.

    What's certain is that, when the window closes, everyone will know exactly where they stand ...

    ... then we can all get back to watching the football, meeting up and having a few beers.

    Whatever happens I think we're in for a cracking season <cheers>

    Move on. No problem if he's not up for a fight.
