Surprised city letting savinho and grealish go

And Mcatee to Forest

Pep did suggest at the end of last season that he wanted a slightly smaller squad. They've got loads of wide forwards there.

i thought city wanted 40 mil for mcatee

how is he suddenly less than dewsbury hall

Real shame to have missed out at that price

If we want the Leicester lad, then get it done ASAP. Just read that Newcastle have an interest in El Khannouss, and I don’t imagine they will want to sell both.

They may not have much of a choice if they’re still in PSR trouble

City must have even worse negotiators than us.

Interesting the other two deals signed and sealed but this is hanging still, weird amount also, think it's designed to draw extra bids

Pep doesn't want them now he has his new players. City don't want them sitting around collecting their massive wages. Both of them will want to play football.

City starting the wheels of the transfer machine rolling...

Last year of his contract?

News broken after Forest have European certainty. Luiz probably contingent on that too

….wouldn’t be surprised if Kellen Fisher interest starts to ramp up next.

According to some Norwich fans online he doesn't seem to fit the current system that is employed there as the manager prefers to utilize wingbacks and Fisher is your standard fullback, so there could be something to it

That tweet is from July.
Latest tweets say all agreed

I reckon the buy back clause will be something silly like 30m

After Rodrygo apparently

It stands to reason that if you overpay for things you won't have enough money to buy other things that you need. Or you borrow like crazy, watch your finances fall through the floor, and suffer from points deductions. The general attitude of that time was one of overspending and Glyfi is right at the top of that list. We suffered immensely from PSR and I don't want financial indiscipline to crush us again.

I guess the point I am making badly is: yes there were lots of factors around psr failures and lots of issues about buying older players or ones that could not cut it at EFC. Siggurdson played over 130 games for us - not a bad return compared to Klassen, vlassic, Lookman, rooney MkII etc.
Money wise was the overpay that big and did it compare to how much we wasted on others?

Love him to join us

Me too. But he won't ever. Need a quick reality check from this point on. Let's not let the heat get to our heads too much.

He's tied up with Dion Lopy's medical.
