Ah ok didn’t realise that but regardless they are so missing a proper & first class DM; quite astounding actually.I think the way the clause was worded was that it didn’t kick in til 2 years after he left, he left after 1 so it wasn’t active so they couldn’t buy him for £40m.
They could’ve matched Chelsea’s bid though

I get that it's probably in no small part down to the ongoing charges stuff and youth team players being pure profit. But add Lavia and Palmer to the mix at City and that improves them massively and given their age, would do for years to come.
Rogers £8m! Jeez, there’s some bargains in the Championship. If only …..
They've done well to get 12 points so far this season imo. I still think their team is worse than ours.
I think they were the founder member.Newcastle have missed a chance to put Ipswich in the 9-0 club with us. Ipswich have been diabolical.
I agree. Player for player there aren’t many I’d take. We should at least be competitive with them.
The big difference is they have Liam delap who can hold the ball up/score
Liverpool did Palace 9 in the pre-prem days.Liverpool wasn’t it?
