Trouble is clubs & players/agents leave it until the last minute to push the price up & get the best deal they can. Not much we can do about that.

Can't beleive people can't understand such a simple concept. Potentially we did. Did we hold on too long to our main target when Arsenal were faffing about?

It's clear from the Webster situation how transfers happen, just usually without such profile in the media due to it involving United and Maguire.

The club has ballsed up and when we were struggling to score goals against leeds we can blame arsenal or who ever all we want What happened yesterday was an exceptional situation that happened very quickly. We'd clearly courted Nketiah for a while and had successfully pitched to Arsenal in order for him to sign here. All was agreed - including medical (which is usually just a formality). Leeds coming in very late and pinching him, partly due to personal relationships, is somewhat out of our control. It's very unfortunate - but isn't down to any negligence on our part per se.

Mr Yoda Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Not an ideal situation I guess and looks like we are victims of playing the long game, but maybe this will give Semenyo a chance. Obvs would have preferred someone proven, but let's just get behind the team and see what happens eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it you mate that said we were prepared to give Arsenal 3 million as a loan fee for Nketiah as well as pay half his wages? Throw this at Gayle or Vydra IMO.

We got to 8th last season and were 5th at one point late on....we’ve improved the midfield, although one CB position weakened - I don’t see doom and gloom. 37 minutes ago, handsofclay said: People seem to forget that we signed Louis Britton from Mangotsfield United at the tail end of last season.

Haven't a clue right now...I think all bets are off in terms of what might happen in the next few hours. If it was 11pm like normal I wouldn't be too concerned but christ this is really leaving it late now. I mean this is the equivalent of gone 6pm on a normal deadline day. Not too many deals appear out of nowhere this late... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He jumped ship at the first opportunity to go to a side completely ill suites for him so it’s fairly obvious where his motivations lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
