Confirmed Signing Tyler Dibling

After last night’s debacle, Roy Kinnear will have revised downwards our projected league position and therefore prize money.

Each league position is worth about £3m.

That’s why we shouldn’t expect us to pay £40m+ for Dibling.
 
Only until he turns out to be a worldie and they sell him for over 100m, then we will all be talking about the time we nearly signed him!

That’s a big if he turns out to be a worldie though it could just as easily go the other way.

£50m for a prospect still means we have to develop him into a £100m player, so unless he is Messi/Maradona love child then no
 

Alex Crook from Talksport is from the south coast I think (or at least based there) so wouldn't be surprised if his reporting today has come from Southampton sources.

Could be a tactic to move us along a bit.

Or we could genuinely be being gazumped, which at this point is probably what the club deserves.

Are you saying we should pay what clubs want for players even if it unreasonable ?

Didn’t we do this a few years ago and ended up with a couple of PSR charges ?

Not necessarily, rather negotiate more aggressively and effectively. The only reason we're in for this player is because the club believe the potential is significant and they're going to make a good profit.

It's not the same as paying £45m for Gylfi Siggurdson, so at this point, just get on with it.

The thing is if we consider a teams price to be unreasonable we need need to move on to our next target. We literally have people in the building who’s job is to identify targets.
If all of our targets’ prices are unreasonable that may say that it’s our offer that may be unreasonable
