Yannick Bolasie

[Nyhus]

People saying yes to Bolasie if it was £10-£15m, but no because it might be £25m...

Why cares? It is not YOUR money the club is spending. Pay whatever it takes to bring in proven PL qulaity players, I couldn't give a toss how much it costs us.

If we spend 25 million on this guy, we cant spend it on someone else. If we spend 10 million on him, theres still a chunk to be used elsewhere.

Are we actually signing this weapon? I'm confused!

I think our director of football needs a check up from the neck up!
What on earth are we doing bidding 25mil on a 27 year old? makes no sense at all. No value to sell on get 3 seasons out of him and he is done
Looks to me like we knew Stones was off ( before City let us know on their team sheet) and tried to get better players in but could not convince them. Feels like we are panic buying now

How do you know he's after them? Defo calling the shots from now on. Get rid of the want-aways, however I can see why he'll want Rom to stay. Also we'res = we ares

I can't smell mate ;( well it's been rumoured a lot that we've been after them players and far as bids accepted so you know

 

[l4toffee]

well he's an improvement on niasse...

So is my ma

If Walsh and koeman want him, sound. he offers pace and power.

He's not my first choice but I don't get a say in the running of the club.

 

[carolinablue232]

He'll be very good for us. Happy if he comes. Think our fans will warm to him pretty quickly despite the obvious distaste currently.

 

[Peter The Dog]

He's alright, but we shouldn't be breaking the bank for him.

 

[Blue Cheese]

Oh no, no, no....I will continue to laugh at the amounts they have paid for the likes of Benteke, Lallana, Lovren, Ballotelli, etc, etc, etc.

I fear we are doing exactly the same on even bigger dross though.

My iPhone auto corrects Bolasie to 'volatile'.

You can step off the fence sometimes BT, admit it he's pants.

 

[Walter Ego]

Oh dear. Rubbish player.

Koeman on Bolasie before Southampton played Palace:

In a team you always have players who makes decisions in the technical part of football and he is one of those players.

He is fast, strong and has a good left foot. We need to pay attention to him because he is an important player to them in an attacking way.

Interesting, considering I'm pretty sure Bolasie is right footed. Obviously Koeman pays a lot of attention.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Utter embarrassment if we spunk more on this no mark than would have got us Mata

we aren't.

We have money. Now thanks to the Stones sale, we have more.

Simply put (and this isn't indicating sell to by at all) but let's equate it as this.

47.5m from Stones. 7.5m (for ease) goes to Barnsley.

40m (profit for STCC so wages can rise in co-ordance with it).

12m - Williams
8m - Gueye

That's 20m (1/2 Stones money) already spent.

Then possibly:
18m - Kone
20m - Bolasie

That's the other half, and then some, covered.

That'd be 18m net spend for the window so far.

We would still need players after that mind - who depends on how we want to set up - bar a goalkeeper, we need him in either way.
