It's an opening bid.
It's £6m+ add ons.
Calm down dear.

By offering such a poor opening bid, we've probably pissed them off and made them more reticent to deal with us tbh. If we had offered something reasonable, like £12M + addons, they would have rejected it but would have seen we were being serious and that would open the door to negotiations.
I don't get why Wenger is so reticent about signing established British players, given that he obviously has no issues signing young British talent, even if he does have to pay large sums for them.
Could just be a typo on the fax. Someone is probably getting a bollocking right now!
"Je ne le crois pas, je n'ai pas vu cette erreur typographique. Six millions de livres il devrait dire seize vous sot anglais."
Maybe we offered £16m and the add on was Chamakh
That is a fucking piss take even for us tbh.
We aslo dont have time to fuck about negotiating, shouldve done that at the start of june ffs.
There are only 6 days left, wenger get your shit together and do some business.
If the figure is actually true then taking in to consideration the premium you pay for English players, really we bid around about £1 probably. :bow:
