Ah yes, the dreaded next 48 hours for a transfer that has been 'close' for a MONTH
It's always been a staring contest over Gueye's buyout. We thought we were playing plenty already, and that the buyout was their problem.I don't really see now why PSG would relent on this just because deadline day rolls around. It's not like they need the money, or have to replace him. They don't give a damn whether he goes to us or not, and nor should they. But it can't come at the risk of missing out entirely by not getting someone else.
Chalk this one off and move on to the next one.
Kieran?I thought we had reached an agreement with PSG for him agars ago. The problem was supposed to be between Gana and PSG about money he wanted them to pay him. I’ll be glad to have him back but not if we’ve had to pay that money for PSG cos they refuse to
I would too. But it's seemed inevitable since it was first mooted.I will be more confident if it gets backed up from @The Bobble or @Tofeenut
Theyve just tried putting extra clauses in the deal with sunderland at the last second as well. Snide bullyboy tacticsIt's always been a staring contest over Gueye's buyout. We thought we were playing plenty already, and that the buyout was their problem.
Everyone knew they were likely to relent in the absence of other interest, but they had the ability to spite us by refusing to release him for our early fixtures. The lesson here is: never deal with PSG if it's avoidable. They probably don't much care what we think, since they aren't likely to raid us again anytime soon. If they did care, they would have been gracious about it. It's not like they paid top dollar in the first place.
Kanchelskis?Glad it's done ( so it seems ) but this has to go down as the longest transfer in history
Haha just about to type that.Kanchelskis?
