So Llorente departure is subject to / conditional on Bony signing for Swansea
Or is the Bony arrival dependent upon Llorente going to either WHL or the Bridge. If Llorente goes to Spurs I can offer him our spare bedroom as we are only about 10 mins from their swish training complex. I offered it to Gareth Bale but for some reason he wanted a place for just him and Mrs :emoticon-0105-wink:

It is a nice training ground, I visited it a few months ago.
 
Imo very much so Matt. Ayew was our player and the club were able to make £25m when sold. Llorente we can sell for £15+m. Michu was different because serious injury predicted his outcome.

The owners have sold the squads assets to make and save money, interchanging them with cheaper options. Now the owners are looking to rent ballast for the squad by loaning young, green talent in the hope that they might be able to perform near their potential. Just shows how naive our dumb owners are and also shows their intention. Why buy players when we can rent some?

We've rented Abraham and Sanchez from their respective clubs on a wing and a prayer. Problem is no matter how hopeful we want to be neither is capable of performing any where near their potential because they are so inexperienced.

Next summer the owners have no Siggy to sell, no Llorente to sell and they'll lose one of our two strikers and a midfielder they've paid for all season for nothing. Where are the owners going to make their money next year? We complained about losing assets this year, next year there wont be any left because the owners will have concentrated their money on cheap rentals that yields no return. Clement has wasted a year of his coaching talents training up other clubs players. Next year any player coming in will be far cheaper than those who've come this year, or the owners might try to wing it again by renting some more YTS kids on loan.

The forecast for next Summer looks bleak already.
We'll have two windows to replace ..
