Really hope he signs, looks a very exciting player. Feel as though they're lining him up as a potential replacement for Eze though, which of course is very sensible to do if he's not looking like signing a new deal.
We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold... |

It could be, but I'd argue it's not a very good bargaining tactic if it leaves the recipient laughing at the offer. Champions league football and 200 appearances, that's just ridiculous. Edited by samprior (17 Jul 2023 12.12pm)

The price being asked needs to be halved - hence the silly add ons. MacAlister was less.

It seems we really are trying to sign him [Link] The fact the Chairman has gone public is surely an attempt to drive up the price and attract other bidders.

I ain't got nuthin' funny to say. Sorry. |
