    My take is...I'm not bothered what we pay unless it seems glaring. I think Kyril will fund Mikataudze if he feels its worth it.

    If we moved on and signed one of the lads mentioned, I'd understand.

    I think our coach is next level with his intelligence, Wenger esq, lot of players who have crossed his path are happy to return. We shall see.

    Hope you manage 4th bottom mate, just behind us <cheers>

    Price set at 10m euros. No concrete offers. Sunderland have shown an interest.

    Yeah I sent the Rongier article on the weekend about como choosing between him and Perrone - but forgot he was only 5'7.

    Does break up play really well though, probably one of the best in the world in the middle third and disrupting the opposition and surprisingly not horrible in the air.

    But can we afford to add even more small midfielders? Maybe

    Another very short player, I hope we're thinking about adding some height

    The more and more i think about it, the more Ludovic Blas seems an obvious move.

    Older french player in his prime to mentor the group of young french speakers, left footed attacking midfielder/right winger mainly but can genuinely play everywhere.

    But hes also just really good, top level creator and can contribute defensively on that flank. Then you are bringing in Talbi on that side to add pace off the bench.

    Think it’s just Sacha covering his arse tbh. The two he’s claimed are exclusives turned out to be duds.

    We will buy a striker at the value we think they’re worth, while being mindful of Mayenda and Isidor’s minutes and progression. That may or may not be over 20m depending on what value is available

    had Lyon been relegated this one would have been much more likely a go-er

    The budget sort of adds up if you look at the point the noise around Vanat and Abline cooled.

    It makes sense to me. If you're spending €30m on a striker, they're your number 1. Someone just around the €20m and they're maybe the main man but rotational to some extent.

    I was thinking this when I saw the Livakovic link. A 30 year old keeper still has 4-5 years in them at the top. We have Matty Young for the long term future of the club. That older keeper could be better right now and still cheaper than a 22 year old who has a higher ceiling.

    Northern echo say Hendo extremely unlikely to return and isn’t of interest to us currently - with that stance being unlikely to change.

    I was initially ambivalent to Hendo coming back...but looking at the age of our new signings and the experience and professionalism the lad would bring, I really hope he signs

    Smacks of Lyon trying to appease fans, they need the money but also have a player who is a fan ….we aren’t letting him go cheap lads.

    if we have even bid 20m that would be our start and there start is 30m …..deal to be had somewhere around 25m - 27m euros in my uninformed view
