That’s why I don’t tell you what I’m having for dinnerI think it's so we don't get gazumped. We have to deal quietly but swiftly to secure a player before the big boys hear about who we are after and try to muscle in with bigger offers.

Bondswell has gone out on loan to Newport
I doubt it. He’s 21 and being loaned to a club in league 2Class.
Apparently the thinking with Maddison was that a team with both him and Saint Maximin in it would be too weak defensively. So, rather than sell Saint Max and buy Maddison, they decided to leave Maddison and keep saying Max... Savvy? Howe really rates Allan it seems.So Maddison to Spurs and maybe Szobolzai to Liverpool now.
We're losing out to our closest rivals... not good.

This is an extremely bizarre transfer window so far. We are owned by PIF who have bought multiple players for their own saudi league.
This is fine. But we are literally in the champions league and no new transfers (yet) confirmed.
But I suspect they will come. They have too. They would make a fool of themselves if we didn’t sign too players.
Said @Roy Munson
They were bidding in the past and obviously like the player, but I'd say they want to go another way and don't fancy paying 175k plus wages.
I'd of preferred us to just offer the ****ing money Leicester asked for and stop pissing about. We were blatantly in for Maddison, there's no doubt about it. It's been reported everywhere for 6 months.
There's a massive difference between panicking and just thinking we made a mistake by the way, before the usuals start to get all pissy about opinions flying about.
I expect we probably did offer if Spurs have sealed the deal for £40m. Not a lot for a player with his credentials (we paid more for Gordon). So it's probably more ti do with Maddison himself preferring Spurs/London - and their wages.
Good luck to him.
