And, without wanting to be seen as impatient, I do think the longer it goes on with Xhaka, the less likely we are to get him.

That's because I think bigger, more established clubs with more money may come in now that his availability to move somewhere outside of Saudi has been mooted.

It really feels like one we had to get done quickly and quietly to surprise people.

And PS if anybody reads what I've posted above and misinterprets it as me personally being impatient, you're completely misunderstanding my point.
it is very ambitious mind, I do think if we lose out, we might need to reel the 'slightly too ambitious' targets in as we need bodies in. There will be targets out there that can improve us that aren't big names like Xhaka

I was excited about a link to Tommy Doyle about a month ago now look where we are, I’m just trying to enjoy the ride, think we’re in for a few more surprises in the coming weeks

Yep really good point and me too. I remember replying earlier in this thread that Kwame Poku from Peteborough would be a good squad option. What a idiot I feel now.
 
Mate that Graeme Bailey post is the biggest load of **** ever he’s still talking about the move NEOM and just says clubs know he’s available now

do people really think that info was already aware before it was in the public lol.

nothing has changed

agreed that article changes nothing. This has been my stance throughout though, that this is an ambitious move and one that we'd ideally want to be making quickly and quietly.

Tuesday/Wednesday was just us mentioned with Xhaka,,

this is just lazy journalism linking teams to players becuase the player is free to move,

the fact that one of the most respected "ITK" agents out there said we are in talks and no one else is means more that other clubs being interested,

just seems convenient.

Alll he’s said aswell as they’ve been alerted, they’ve not bid.
Fabrizio didn’t mention any other clubs when saying we’re discussing. That’s the biggest for me

Agreed about quick and quietly, imagine how good we’d have felt if we just got a ‘here we go’ out of nowhere re Xhaka when he wasn’t linked previously.

This one is just every single journo out there saying we’re interested or preparing a bid. Seems slower than I’d like. <laugh>

Fabrizio said we are working on a deal. Didn’t mention any other clubs baring in mind a few days ago he spoke about xhaka to neom, I think it’s fair to assume we’ve swooped
As well as the fact every other major journalist in the country only mentioned us as interested and pursuing a deal

Graeme Bailey is likely saying other clubs might be interested just on the off chance they do go in for him he gets an exclusive whilst also saying he might go to Sunderland, Fener or NEOM

he can’t really be wrong then can he

The original journo (Sacha) mentioned today Fenerbache are in talks too. He broke this one first.

Ive said before on here. I know him personally, hes a big Boro fan and hates us so he's not going to make much effort in reporting anything accurate about us.

Fener have been in talks for a while. Turkish clubs aren’t notorious for paying big money.

They could have went elsewhere by now, they’re linked with about 10 different midfielders
