Summer Transfer Shit and Everything Else

I think 70 million plus add ons was more than generous.

I think it’s now time to walk away from the Rice circus. £90m is way more than we should be paying, surely there are cheaper alternatives.

Embarrassing if we miss out on him.

it's embarrassing either way IMO - either we're overpaying for him or we miss out on our publicly-stated number one target who wants to come to the club.

I can't help thinking most other clubs would have handled this differently (for which read 'better').

Putting to one side the very heavy baggage that I neither rate or want this player

The fact that the two bids have come five days apart suggests to me that Fabrizio Romano reporting that we are slow with getting transfers done because Tom Seleck in aviator specs has to sign off on it seems to me to have some legs.

We are woeful with transfers. Look how other clubs conduct their business. how much? Okay, here’s is the asking price. Whereas we come along, how much, okay we will pay you in instalments over 72 years, maybe.

we have plenty of players they can have - Eddie, Holding, Tavares, Zinchenko, Pepe, Lokonga, etc etc

tbh they can have all of them if they want

Yeah but then the fee is £150 million if they have all the above.

i'd be happy to get him for about £40-50m, but we should have gone all in for Caicedo, we're also crying out for a big striker as everyone keeps saying

Is it, though?
£100m? Do me a favour.
Is he really that good?

West Ham really hoping City enter negotiations. Fuck West ham and Rice. Our money is better off elsewhere, would be funny if at the end of the window he was still at west ham.

We'd get a player as for half the price or less who is as good or better if he wasn't English.
