Carsley did a job for us Ghost.
 

Negotiations take part when one of the parties are willing to sell and the other to buy.

Don't think Sporting are willing to sell.
Except they've outlined their demands on which they will let him go... Which blows the whole "They aren't willing to sell" thing out of the water.

True, the negotiations may technically be on our part. But I think IF we have put the bid of £13 mil in then we are just seeing if they will accept because he wants out and don't want a disgruntled player on their books.

If they reject this one IF we have put it in then we may well just pay what they want and see what the deal is.

They said they'd keep their word and abide by the compromise to the player...25M€.

If they wanted to sell I'm sure they would lower the demands. That's not the case. They're just keeping their word.

If I was the chairman, at this point I'd say 40M€ or nothing. If you want to pay 25M€ wait until next June.
 

So what do you think Sotnas, do you think he'll stay?

I'm quite confident he'll stay. I don't believe Everton will reach the 25M€ mark.

And after his public remarks he has left the club with no choice but to sell only for that figure.

The fans are putting the board under pressure. There's no space for anything else than the 25M€ mark.

There are other sellable players in the squad, even if the club were urged to sell anyone, which is not the case.

I'm sure the player is not interested in some wrestle with the board being benched for the season wouldn't do him any good.

I'd say it's fairly safe to say that Everton weren't willing to sell AJ either and look at how that turned out.

No one is ever willing to sell until a price comes in that just can't be turned down.
 
I think Sporting are just stalling and waiting for the 'right price'. It wont be what there publicly stating they want and it wont be 13m, somewhere in between and he will become a blue
 

Knowing how the transfer market works these days, I'd be willing to put some vBookie points on him being a blue before the season starts provided someone doesn't hijack the bid.

I'll put it this way, I think there's a high likelihood that he won't start the season with Sporting.

For a lot more money than Everton is showing, I agree with you.
 
So if we match the price we'll get him really.

I think where playing a dangerous game to be honest, we should either pay it or move on. If he does decide to stay where [Poor language removed], we'll have left it too late and won't be able to get a replacement. Like Fernandes last year, we missed out and had to get Gravesen in on loan.

I really hope we don't [Poor language removed] this up, we need players badly. We've left it far far to late, like always.

that sounds like a VBookie event request to me. I'd take that bet too.
