Is that Andre Andre from Porto on the way then? Jake's a good player so I hope we're getting something better....
I don't think the fee even matters. It could be £25m and it'd be a bad deal for us because it's so hard to get someone in of similar quality. Can't blame him for wanting to go, it's just a massive shame that it's got to this point.
Good luck to Jake, he's been a good player for us. Hopefully we'll see the money put to good use. If you post how much we've got for him, you're an idiot. You do not know.
Who says he wanted to go? We accepted a fee for Chez and he was in tears about leaving. This morning we seemed to reject 8 rising to 10 so I suspect this must be more like 10 with no add-ons, or perhaps there are add ons to rise to 12 - as it says in the region of 10. Hopefully reinvested well and quickly.
Despite the hand wringing and usual wailing about how he's left because the club is a joke, and he's too hard to replace, looks like the reality is Silva is getting a good chunk of his own players. So looks like he's getting the support he expected and needs. Good times.
I think MS has a target needs to move fast or he' miss's out on it and needs cash fast to fund it it was either Jake or Snodgrass would not want to lose either but if force then I would have sold Jake.
That remains to be seen, as things stand currently we've just flogged one of our starting XI for £10m and haven't placed a significant bid for anyone.
