Dave Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Seems like a real possibility. He's now handed in a transfer request. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Stan Posted January 30, 2018 Administrator Share Posted January 30, 2018 don't know if he actually has handed in a transfer request though? Sky Sports the only ones reporting it. We're never selling for £50m either. Everyone saying he handed one in in August as well but that was never the case. The only telling thing will be (if nothing else happens today) is if he's not in the squad tomorrow night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Dan+ Posted January 30, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted January 30, 2018 I don't trust a word Sky say these days. Don't forget how big a betting firm they are now - they deliberately exaggerate everything to get people piling money on transfer bets. I genuinely don't consider them any more reliable than the Sun anymore. People will say it's illegal for them to do that, but how on earth do you prove they're lying? In such a culture where transfer bullshit has become the norm. This completely fucks us and if it is true he's handed a request in then I'll be fuming. I can totally understand why he wants to move but that would be the second window on the spin he's pulled a cunts trick late on. We got through the last one and got him back into form again, but I think we'd do very well to pull it off a second time - especially when you've actually got legitimate interest from a side who are going to win the Premier League and up to three other trophies. For all the timing is shite, however, we should be properly prepared. He's wanted to go for ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That stunt with the Paris airport though was piss poor I thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Dan+ Posted January 30, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted January 30, 2018 I'm glad we're standing firm on the price. Can't quite grasp my Leicester side snubbing a £59mil offer just like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Dan+ Posted January 30, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted January 30, 2018 If he goes there, people will consider him absolutely top class within a year. I'm confident of that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Dan+ Posted January 30, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted January 30, 2018 If it was up to me, I would try and do a deal which is similar to Keita's move to Liverpool. Agree the deal and make it for the summer. That way, we hold onto him for this year, he gets his big move guaranteed so he's happy while he's here and we get time to sort a replacement. And if Man City don't want that and they just want him to fill Sane's boots for 6 weeks, then how bothered about him truly are they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley Culture Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Doesn’t Mahrez hand in a transfer request almost daily depending on what news source you read that day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that much really, he'd be sat on the bench most games next to Bernardo short term on tell Silva hangs up his boots, he'd be injury cover and rotated when players need a rest, same way we are using Bernardo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Gonzo Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 At first when we were linked with him as a Coutinho replacement I wasn't that keen. But considering we're an injury to Salah/Mane/Firmino away from a bit of an attacking crisis - if he's potentially on the move, we should be interested.

Man City are apparently some way off. The most common figures are that they've bid £59mil, and that we want £90mil. That's absolutely mega money.

If we're going to pay a retarded amount, I think I'd prefer Lemar just because he's supposedly more comfortable playing in the centre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Stan Posted January 30, 2018 Administrator Share Posted January 30, 2018 You've bid £55m after being told no to £50m. To only up it by £5m is laughable . Like when Arsenal offered Liverpool £1 over £40m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will just walk away like we did with Sanchez & Hazard, 50 million is more than a fair price, that's round about what we paid for De Bruyne who had just been voted best player in Germany Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
