I'd be perfectly happy with that scenario.Even if we do go up there's still an argument for selling Ramsdale for £20m, signing Peretz for £7m and using the extra transfer money and wages elsewhere.

I'm not sure about Ramsdale. The word seems to be that Newcastle won't be buying him so there's a chance we keep him if we go up. I'm pretty sure that's the only possible way we don't try to sign Peretz permanently.

TBF to Ramsdale, he did exactly that in the one of the very few games we did win last season - Everton at home.100%. Whilst Ramsdale made some saves which kept scorelines down, I don’t recall his saves winning games as Peretz has in the last 2 games. Combine that with the fact that it appears Peretz actually wants to be here....
Peretz > Ramsdale
Whats the quote about falling in love with a loan player![]()
I think he had a good game when we beat Ipswich as well. I'm also not sure it's totally fair to suggest he doesn't want to be here. He's on a huge wage that we really can't afford in this division anyway. Replacing him with Peretz plus £13m and some spare wages might still be the right call.TBF to Ramsdale, he did exactly that in the one of the very few games we did win last season - Everton at home.

Yep, my worry. TSP spoke about this a week or so ago. With Toby, it wasn’t really confirmed whether we had a water tight option to buy or he just said, “I’m not playing for you”& wanted Spurs when they came in. I hope we don’t fall down here.It's like Alderweireld all over again

Pretty much this although Atletico did have to pay us a penalty of £1.5m for going back on the buy deal that was included (which was a no-brainer for them because they made way more than that in the higher offer coming from Spurs)If there’s a mandatory buy clause my understanding is the fee/contract terms are confirmed when the loan is done. These sort of deals get done as a way of pushing money spend into the future if the buying club doesn’t have the cash/wants it in next seasons figures.
Optional buy clauses (like the ones we had with Alderweireld, Larin and Peretz) a fee is agreed at the time of the loan that the selling club has to accept, but the player can tell us to piss off if they want in the summer. So in Peretz’s case it will probably happen if there is bigger club interest in him, like there was with Alderweireld. That was all blown out of proportion at the time, he simply chose Spurs over us. Atletico could accept as many offers as they wanted as well as ours and it was his decision where he went.
He'd be a snip at that price. Let's hope he doesn't do a Toby.You must log in or register to see media

Clearly, I think the best situation is we go up, sign Peretz for 7mill and sell Ramsdale for 20million, which will provide funds to use on other positions.Imagine it’s as simple as go up and he stays, don’t and he doesn’t. Which ironically is the way round we don’t really need it with the Ramsdale situation

Who cares!The cynic in me is also saying its convenient timing with presumably season ticket info about to be released![]()
