Then how have we been in contact with the likes of Juventus, Palace and Inter Milan about their players? And probably countless other clubs.

It's all a merry-go-round.

We'll buy X off you assuming that we sell Y to so and so. If we get £a for Y then we'll give you £b for X. If we don't sell Y then we can look at a loan but can't commit to buy.

See McCarthy/Felliani. Had the latter not been sold the former would not have been purchased. Had we not burgled the extra £7m for the latter then the asking price for the former would not have been met.

Gestede is a signing we have missed out on. Should have gone in for him

Why?

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

So Stoke would buy him!

Ospina and Mata.
Is that too much to ask for?

Yes mate. It is. We are not allowed nice things.

Break the bank Bill. Come on.

I'm beginning to think we aren't going for the same players that Stoke are in for - because we are in for better players. Big names. Names that need to be hush hush for now.

No!!!!!!!!!

 

[Jags..class]

Why?

Because he would have been good cover for lukaku, he got a good first touch, strong and can head a ball

I think the problem with Shaqiri is his name, really.

You can be utterly gash but when you're called Xerdan Shaqiri people will just think you're boss regardless.

I have no issue with this at all. It helps that he scores boss goals too. Even like 3 of them a season and I'd be happy.
